Why the fit may work

For shoe reviews, the main fit questions are support, cushioning, stability, heel hold, toe room or width, and whether the shoe matches the intended daily routines. A shoe can look strong on cushioning but still be the wrong choice if it feels unstable, rubs, slips at the heel, or does not match walking, running, work, or standing needs.
