Spira Women's Walking Shoes, Black/White, 10.5 Wide
Walking ShoesThe Spira(r) CloudWalker cushioned walking shoes are designed to reduce strain from walking, work, and standing, keeping you fresh and supported when you have to be on your feet all day. ~Part of the True 4 Width collection, offering four real widths per style.~ These walking shoes feature a last that balances a spacious forefoot with a narrower back to reduce heel slip. Breathable mesh upper with a structured TPU overlay that provides structured support while maintaining a smooth, seamless interior For years, athletic and comfort shoe engineers have been trying to create a buffer between the foot and the ground. Spira engineers have developed a solution--an energy return system that actually recycles expended energy back to the wearer. It's called WaveSpring technology and it's found inside every pair of Spira shoes. With every step, energy is stored and then dispersed back to the wearer while providing the ultimate in cushioning. Testing performed by an independent source reported that the WaveSpring has up to a 96% energy return. Running, walking and standing for long periods of time can take a toll on the body, legs and feet. Spira's patented WaveSpring technology helps by taking a great deal of the burden off of the joints. Compared to Spira, regular athletic shoes require the wearer to exert greater effort. Muscles work harder, causing fatigue and increasing the risk of injury. By absorbing a greater amount of the impact of each step, Spira shoes manage to greatly reduce this risk and increase the wearer's enjoyment for the duration of the activity. While most shoes rely on compressive foams, air or gel materials to cushion the feet, the WaveSpring is mechanical and therefore will not lose its extraordinary "new shoe" feel over time. There is no significant cushioning breakdown throughout the life of the shoe. Spira’s WaveSpring technology intuitively reacts to the amount of energy and pressure a wearer exerts, and redistributes energy accordingly. Heel and forefoot spring configurations are engineered for specific activities. Experience the Spira difference and put a real spring in your step!

Walk This Way: Top Picks for Comfort and Support in Walking Shoes
Walking is a fantastic way to stay active, improve your health, and explore the world around you. But a comfortable and supportive pair of walking shoes is essential to make your walks enjoyable and prevent injuries. With so many options on the market, choosing the right walking shoes can feel overwhelming. Fear not, fellow walkers! This guide will unveil some of the top picks for walking shoes, ensuring you find the perfect pair for hitting the pavement in comfort and style.
Understanding Your Needs: The Perfect Walking Shoe for Every Walker
Before diving into specific recommendations, let's consider some key factors to think about when choosing walking shoes:
- Terrain: Will you be walking primarily on sidewalks, trails, or a mix of both? Different terrains require different shoe features.
- Walking Distance: Are you a casual walker who enjoys strolls around the neighborhood, or do you train for long-distance walks/hikes?
- Support Needs: Do you have any specific foot conditions or require extra arch support for maximum comfort?
Top Picks for Walking Shoe Comfort and Support: Walk in Confidence
Now, let's get to the good stuff! Here are some of the best walking shoes that prioritize comfort and support for various walking styles:
- Cushioned Comfort: Brands like Brooks and Hoka One One offer shoes with exceptional cushioning, perfect for long walks or those who need extra shock absorption.
- Lightweight Performance: For brisk walks or those who prioritize speed, consider lightweight walking shoes from brands like Adidas or New Balance. These shoes offer good support without feeling bulky.
- Trail-Ready: If your walks take you off the beaten path, opt for trail-specific walking shoes from brands like Salomon or Merrell. These shoes provide added stability and traction on uneven terrain.
- Supportive Stability: For walkers with specific foot needs or those who require extra arch support, brands like Saucony and Asics offer shoes with advanced support features.
Walk in Comfort and Style: Additional Tips for Choosing Walking Shoes
Beyond the brand and specific features, here are some additional tips for selecting the perfect walking shoes:
- Get sized properly: A snug but comfortable fit is essential. It's best to get sized at a reputable shoe store in the afternoon when your feet are slightly swollen.
- Consider your socks: The socks you wear can impact the fit and feel of your shoes. Choose socks specifically designed for walking or athletic activities.
- Take them for a test walk: Don't just try the shoes on in the store; walk around in them to ensure they feel comfortable and supportive.
Lace Up and Explore: The World Awaits You in Comfort
With the right walking shoes on your feet, you'll be ready to conquer any path. Remember, comfort and support are key to making your walks enjoyable and preventing injuries. So, lace up your new walking shoes, embrace the fresh air, and walk this way towards a healthier and happier you!
User Reviews
Super comfortable right out of the box. No breaking-in period. The three springs in the soles makes such a difference over every other athletic shoe out there. And the ample toe box adds to the overall great fit. Spira is a winner!
I am a manager at a retail store and on my feet 8-9 hours a day, these cloud walkers are amazing!!! Thank you.
I love these shoes! I used to have some but havent for 15 yrs or so. I like these a LOT more than the New Balance that i've been wearing! They fit good. I have wide feet so its hard finding shoes that fit good. Love the way they look!
Small all the way around. Did not fit. I tried to give it a chance, but to no avail. I don't think it was a wide at all. But, am not a shoe expert. All I know it didn't fit and by the end of the day my feet were screaming to be let free. I like the other Spira shoes, but this one was a bust. So very sad!
All the good reviews are true! These are my new favorite walking shoes. I fight with achilles tendonitis off and on, so I must have supportive footwear. The heal toe drop is sufficient. I like the sturdy footbed. The insole is cloud-like, so if you like the support as your feet sink into the shoe, like Skechers, you'll like this shoe. I put my custom orthotics in to get the need arch support, plus there is still a nice amount of spring as I walk. White shoes. Well they really clean quite easily with a damp cloth! I bought 7 W. For comparison, I wear the same size in Nikes, 7.5 W in Brooks. Love these shoes!
I liked the fit and comfort
I workout everyday I’m on my elliptical and these are the only shoes I can wear that give me the support I need.
The shoe came out in January 2004 and was invented by a person in El Paso. Where I happen to live. It is a lifesaver for people with plantar fasciitis!! I have been wearing this brand for sixteen years!
