I disagree. They&rsquo;re fantastic for standing. They&rsquo;re delightful for strolling. They&rsquo;re sucky for covering distance, though.</p> <p>The soles are just too soft. There&rsquo;s no support. Scurrying a mile to make a bus connection? Plan on rolling your ankle along the way and for having achy shins. I would truly rather wear hardsoled boots for making a long or fast trip.</p>
