Thanks for this shoe recommendation. They offer women's and I am going to try them. I have recently started wearing Birkenstock Arizona sandals and my feet are much happier with the zero drop and the wide forefoot so the toes have room to act like toes and the foot is level on the ground. Excellent arch support. I got the soft footbed. Once broken in (about 2 to 3 weeks), these are very comfortable. But I also want a soft shoe that I can wear indoors sometimes, as my feet have a lot of arthritis and need some soft/cushion time, so I am glad to learn of the Grand Attack. They have a removable insole,I see, as I will need to switch that for my comfortable FootScientific arch supports. I got fitted for mine at my dr's, but Amazon sells these also. I am also going to go to a Fit2Run store and try on the Altra sneaker/athletic shoe with the Original shape, which is the wide forefoot shaped liked the human's foot. (They make narrower designs, too). These also have a zero drop. My dr also suggested I try a HOKA if I can find one with a wide enough toebox. So I will look at those as well. The longer I wear the Birkenstock's, though, the happier my feet are with a zero drop/near zero drop. PS For folks who asked for pics of the Grand Attack, the Amazon site offers lots of pics and the shoes come in several colors and sole colors. I will follow up after I get these.
Do you got a pic of shoes?
