These women’s velcro walking shoes open wide: a hook and loop strap across the instep and a stretch gore panel at the throat let you step in without bending down to fight laces. The knit upper is light and plain, cut low at the ankle with a padded collar.
Women’s velcro walking shoes with a wider opening
Releasing the strap opens the throat noticeably wider, which is what people ask for when lifting a foot feels like work. The strap then holds the fit down, so the shoe does not slide forward on the heel.
Cushioning you can see
A light midsole carries a moulded cushioning window at the heel, where most of the load lands. Below it, a dark outsole runs the length of the shoe with a fine tread.
Colours and sizes
Seven colourways, black, beige, blue, grey and three melange knits, in EU 39 to 44.
Less stiffness when I first get up. Nothing gaps or rubs.
My feet feel steadier than they did before. Still looking tidy after plenty of wear. Gentle from the outset, no adjustment needed.
I feel a touch more sure on uneven ground. No complaints.
That’s the bit I like. A relief to put on each morning.
I went with my usual size and it worked. Longer outings don’t put me off now.
