I was wearing reboks similar to these from Puma and decided to change the look, they were too big, too big and damn uncomfortable, I added insoles and it helped a little but definitely not shoes. I am willing to wear more than 2-3 hours with no pain in my legs. I just couldn't take the discomfort and sent them back before my time was up. Extremely disappointed. Back to Rebok, the difference between the feel of an athletic shoe (Rebok) and a boot (Puma) is day and night.
