I'm a life long shoe addict...and since I can no longer "walk", I wear what I want with no repercussions. My husband and my wheelchair allow me to indulge.
I have discovered that lightweight ankle boots work great for me for balance
Cadence, they are for people who have drop foot or trouble walking. Look it up, I like mine.
I have 3\4 pairs. Sketcher step ins, Earth Shoes for dress, fur lined flat booties! Love them all
.
I love New Balance because of the comfort and durability of the shoe.
