So comfortable
These shoes are so cute, stylish and comfortable. Wore them right out of the box for 12 hours and no foot pain.

My first 550s... and won't be my last!
I had been eyeing the specific color way in this shoe for months. I can never find my size (5W) so I couldn't believe my luck when I found these on sale IN MY SIZE. These are the most comfortable sneakers. I love them, and I will be buying more.
