Padded collar gives you instant comfort for easy wear.

2Pod technology footbed has 2 pods of cushioning placed under the foot where it needs it the most; the heel and the ball.

Triple action foam densities in each pod molds to the foot to offer maximum support and comfort.

Steel shank provides added stability to ease your walking motion.
