Cushioned shoes, or neutral cushioning shoes, are shoes designed for runners with normal to high arches who tend to underpronate. Cushioning shoes generally have a padded midsole with layers of extra cushioning in the heel and forefoot that provide better energy return to the body when compressed while helping absorb heel shock and encouraging a more natural foot motion.
About Rounded Toe Shoes:
Round toe shoes are shoes where the toe box has a round shape.
Eastland Newport Great shoe!

A really good pair of shoes! Took about 4-5 days to break in the right shoe, as I had some pressure across the top of foot where the tongue would be. Daily wear and some saddle soap helped break in the one shoe. I know that most peoples' feet are different sizes and likely no fault of the shoe. Otherwise a very comfortable pair of shoes and quick to put on! Hopefully this shoe will hold up to daily wear as good as my last pair of Eastlands with the same sole design, as I am 6'4" and 350+ pounds and the last pair wore long and very even for the job that was asked of them. I will definitely buy more in the not too near future!
Wears this shoe: To work daily as a police detective 5 days a week.

Orthofeet 525 they dont look THAT bad
December 10, 2012
Reviewer: A.Y. from Springfield MO
I'll admit that I didn't feel the Orthofeet 525 looked quite as good in person as they did in the photographs on the site. In fact I wasn't real sure I wanted to keep them but my spouse said "they don't look THAT bad". They do feel a bit like wearing boots compared to my old New Balance shoes (that I wore EVERYWHERE), especially on stairs. They are quite comfortable, though, so I'll keep wearing them. I had to put in one of the (included) foam spacers under the removable insole in order for my foot to not move around too much. I'm not at all confident that the velcro strap will last nearly as long as my old New Balance shoes did. After just a couple of weeks it already seems loose at the end.
Wears this shoe: Whenever I am not sleeping or working out.
Great shoe!
