Has anyone tried the shoes that have the curved sole? I bought a pair today. They felt pretty good when I tried them on and walked around a little, but I haven't tried walking a good distance yet in them. Anyone try using them for Walk Aerobics?

    Yes I have a pair of those shoes you have to be careful when just starting out with the shoes don't wear them all the time for example the first day wear them only for about 45 minutes if you don't your legs won't be able to take it.

    I use the sketchers brand and love them, most comfortable shoe I have worn. Actually have 3 pair now and when I go walking or jogging usually do 5 to 6 miles with no pain.
  • just got a pair of WindRiver quad comfort shoes from Marks Work Warehouse. they have the curved soles, and fitted insoles. and they fit and feel great. walking 3 miles in other shoes, caused heal, and ankle pain. with these new shoes, feel like I could walk 6 miles or more.

    I bought a pair of the Danskin ones. After walking 1 mile they still felt pretty comfy. I did feel like I was getting a workout where I need it most. Lol

    2 people in my office have them now. One is 52 yo F with bad knees from a life of athletics and she adores them, loves how comfortable it is to walk now.
