Andrew Liszewski, I sure hope you do not, nor have ever called yourself a writer / editor / reporter / journalist. How can you comment on something you know nothing about? Have you even heard about \u2018research\u2019?<br><br>Z-coil shoes have helped thousands of people, which is apparent not only from all the positive comments stated here but also from the thousands of testimonials on their website (<a href=\"http://www.zcoil.com/testimonials.cfm\" rel=\"nofollow\">http://www.zcoil.com/testimonials.cfm</a>). The shoes really don\u2019t look that silly on a person, which you can also see on their website. <br><br>I first saw z-coils at my doctor\u2019s office, where it almost seemed like everyone in the building had a pair! When I asked my doctor about them he said they reduced the impact of each step. My mother has not walked on her own in over 5 years because of arthritis and other pains in her knees and back. My mother and I researched the shoes and we were brought to tears by many of the testimonials from people in her same situation. <br><br>Although the closest store was over 100 miles away, we were confident the day trip would be beneficial. Everyone at the store was very helpful and understanding of her condition. They knew exactly how to fit the shoes to help my mother\u2019s specific problems. Once they had them laced up (the Freedoms in black), I watched as they helped my mother stand up. She smiled at me and took her first step on her own in over 5 years.

I've been wearing z-coil shoes for almost 5 years now. Without them, not only would I not be able to work, I wouldn't be able to walk. I have arthritis in my feet and heel spurs, I was in so much pain I would almost cry every time I had to start walking, and I am on my feet all day at work. I saved up my money and drove to the nearest place that carried them. I liked the look of the desert hikers the most ( I liked the color of the mens hikers more than the women's and got them even though I'm a woman.) I tried on the ones with the enclosed heel (which by the way look pretty much like any other shoe, just looks like it has a high chunky heel). I didn't think they had as much \"spring\" as the regular heels so I decided on the open heel. I was a little worried about driving in them since I have a stick shift and I thought I should wait till I got used to them before I drove with them on.  I put my other shoes back on and started to go out the door. I took 3 steps and sat back down and put my z-coils back on. The difference was amazing. I had no trouble getting used to them and had no problem driving my stick shift with them. I haven't worn a regular shoe since. I'm on my feet all day, I work in fields of hay, potatoes, and lots of other outside farm work., basically do anything I would normally do in them. I have had hundreds of people asking about them, saying they love them, and asking where they can get a pair over the years, so they must not look that \"horrible\". I paid $158 for mine, I don't make a lot of money but found out these are more affordable than most regular shoes because they have lasted almost 5 years. I have replaced the heels once because I thought they weren't as springy as when I first got them. The cost for that was around $24, you just add or remove the heels by a little flap on the inside of the shoe with a screwdriver. You can adjust them to however you need the heels to be turned.  Before, I was completely wearing out a pair of shoes within 6 months and I've had these for almost 5 years and they look almost new. I don't even wash them, they are so well made that they will last for many years. So, you could either pay $40-$100 every 6 months for a pair of decent shoes or get these better ones that will take away some or all of your pain for $158 plus the $24 for the extra heels, and they are still going strong and still look new after almost 5 years. I'll take the z-coils over any shoe I've ever tried on. They have saved me. I would recommend these shoes to everyone with any kind of foot pain.

The desire to \"fit in\" is unfortunately human nature, and it's not surprising how far some of us will go to do just that. The fact that people feel compelled to post comments here defending their shoe choice, instead of just not caring about what I think is evidence of that. But I'm glad they have, since it shows the shoes do work as advertised for some people.<br><br>But I still think a more subtle approach to the design of the 'Z-coil' would make people less apprehensive about trying the shoes in the first place. A wider acceptance would increase sales and hopefully reduce prices, making the shoes available to people who can't afford $190 for a pair of sandles.", "is_last_child": false, "can_reply": true, "down_voted": false, "real_date": "2008-02-21_11:58:34", "killed": false, "user_key": "438ef099916a143c8f43cdd6af15e803", "has_been_anonymized": false, "edited": false, "author_is_moderator": false, "from_request_user": null, "votable": true, "date": "1 year ago", "approved": true, "num_replies": 0, "is_first_child": false, "email": "", "parent_post_id": null, "depth": 0, "points": 0, "author_is_creator": false, "is_realtime": false}, "1765747": {"up_voted": false, "ip": "", "has_replies": false, "message": "If you had experienced true pain then you would never say that you would rather put up with it.

First, you never mentioned (or anyone that commented that for that matter) that you are able to get ANY shoe with an enclosed heel.  The enclosed heel actually makes the heel stiffer and takes a little of the \"springy\" effect out while still completely absorbing all the impact as an exposed heel.  Secondly, you have never even tried the shoes, so how can you say you would rather be in pain than to where these shoes with an exposed heel?  Oh, you can't comment on that, can you?  <br><br>I am 21, 6', 150 lbs, and have a size 10 foot, but usually wear between a 10-11, just all depends on the shoe.  Our entire family is a huge Disney family, and some if not all of our family makes a yearly Disneyland trip, and usually stay between 3-5 days.  I suffer from major heel pain even after 1 day of walking, and then the next couple days are worse than the first day, at the end of the day.  I never knew of these shoes until a few months ago, and the next Disneyland trip we go on, I will require these shoes.  Also, standing on my feet for as long as a couple hours, I start to have bad heel pain.  I guess that my feet are a little small for my body, but am not totally sure.<br><br>So for all you suffers of heel pain, arch pain, or just any foot pain in general, from being on your feet for a while, or just weak feet or heels, give these shoes a try.  Looks past the look of the shoe and just go to the closest Z-Coil store, and try them on.  Also remember, YOU CAN GET ANY SHOE WITH AN ENCLOSED HEEL!  Most Z-Coil stores are called another name since they are all independently owned, but just go to the Z-Coil website and find the nearest store.

But at the same time I don\'t think my initial reaction to their appearance would differ from the general public. It\'s obvious a lot of work has gone into designing the actual shoe part, but I can\'t help but feel that some people (even those suffering from foot pain) would be turned off by the design of the \'Z-coil\'. The desire to "fit in" is unfortunately human nature, and it\'s not surprising how far some of us will go to do just that. The fact that people feel compelled to post comments here defending their shoe choice, instead of just not caring about what I think is evidence of that. But I\'m glad they have, since it shows the shoes do work as advertised for some people.<br><br>But I still think a more subtle approach to the design of the \'Z-coil\' would make people less apprehensive about trying the shoes in the first place. A wider acceptance would increase sales and hopefully reduce prices, making the shoes available to people who can\'t afford $190 for a pair of sandles.</div>\

	 <div id="dsq-comment-message-1765748" class="dsq-comment-message">Andrew, all you did was show complete ignorance in this whole article.  First, you never mentioned (or anyone that commented that for that matter) that you are able to get ANY shoe with an enclosed heel.  The enclosed heel actually makes the heel stiffer and takes a little of the "springy" effect out while still completely absorbing all the impact as an exposed heel.  Secondly, you have never even tried the shoes, so how can you say you would rather be in pain than to where these shoes with an exposed heel?  Oh, you can\'t comment on that, can you?  <br><br>I am 21, 6\', 150 lbs, and have a size 10 foot, but usually wear between a 10-11, just all depends on the shoe.  Our entire family is a huge Disney family, and some if not all of our family makes a yearly Disneyland trip, and usually stay between 3-5 days.  I suffer from major heel pain even after 1 day of walking, and then the next couple days are worse than the first day, at the end of the day.  I never knew of these shoes until a few months ago, and the next Disneyland trip we go on, I will require these shoes.  Also, standing on my feet for as long as a couple hours, I start to have bad heel pain.  I guess that my feet are a little small for my body, but am not totally sure.<br><br>So for all you suffers of heel pain, arch pain, or just any foot pain in general, from being on your feet for a while, or just weak feet or heels, give these shoes a try.  Looks past the look of the shoe and just go to the closest Z-Coil store, and try them on.  Also remember, YOU CAN GET ANY SHOE WITH AN ENCLOSED HEEL!  Most Z-Coil stores are called another name since they are all independently owned, but just go to the Z-Coil website and find the nearest store.  Stores are taking off, but if you don\'t have a store near you, but going to be visiting where there is one, make sure to make that a stop.</div>\

I\'ve been wearing z-coil shoes for almost 5 years now. Without them, not only would I not be able to work, I wouldn\'t be able to walk. I have arthritis in my feet and heel spurs, I was in so much pain I would almost cry every time I had to start walking, and I am on my feet all day at work. I saved up my money and drove to the nearest place that carried them. I liked the look of the desert hikers the most ( I liked the color of the mens hikers more than the women\'s and got them even though I\'m a woman.) I tried on the ones with the enclosed heel (which by the way look pretty much like any other shoe, just looks like it has a high chunky heel). I didn\'t think they had as much "spring" as the regular heels so I decided on the open heel. I was a little worried about driving in them since I have a stick shift and I thought I should wait till I got used to them before I drove with them on.  I put my other shoes back on and started to go out the door. I took 3 steps and sat back down and put my z-coils back on. The difference was amazing. I had no trouble getting used to them and had no problem driving my stick shift with them. I haven\'t worn a regular shoe since. I\'m on my feet all day, I work in fields of hay, potatoes, and lots of other outside farm work., basically do anything I would normally do in them. I have had hundreds of people asking about them, saying they love them, and asking where they can get a pair over the years, so they must not look that "horrible". I paid $158 for mine, I don\'t make a lot of money but found out these are more affordable than most regular shoes because they have lasted almost 5 years. I have replaced the heels once because I thought they weren\'t as springy as when I first got them. The cost for that was around $24, you just add or remove the heels by a little flap on the inside of the shoe with a screwdriver. You can adjust them to however you need the heels to be turned.  Before, I was completely wearing out a pair of shoes within 6 months and I\'ve had these for almost 5 years and they look almost new. I don\'t even wash them, they are so well made that they will last for many years. So, you could either pay $40-$100 every 6 months for a pair of decent shoes or get these better ones that will take away some or all of your pain for $158 plus the $24 for the extra heels, and they are still going strong and still look new after almost 5 years. I\'ll take the z-coils over any shoe I\'ve ever tried on. They have saved me. I would recommend these shoes to everyone with any kind of foot pain. Bottom line, without these shoes, I could not walk.</div>\

Andrew Liszewski, I sure hope you do not, nor have ever called yourself a writer / editor / reporter / journalist. How can you comment on something you know nothing about? Have you even heard about ‘research’?<br><br>Z-coil shoes have helped thousands of people, which is apparent not only from all the positive comments stated here but also from the thousands of testimonials on their website (<a href="http://www.zcoil.com/testimonials.cfm" rel="nofollow">http://www.zcoil.com/testimonials.cfm</a>). The shoes really don’t look that silly on a person, which you can also see on their website. <br><br>I first saw z-coils at my doctor’s office, where it almost seemed like everyone in the building had a pair! When I asked my doctor about them he said they reduced the impact of each step. My mother has not walked on her own in over 5 years because of arthritis and other pains in her knees and back. My mother and I researched the shoes and we were brought to tears by many of the testimonials from people in her same situation. <br><br>Although the closest store was over 100 miles away, we were confident the day trip would be beneficial. Everyone at the store was very helpful and understanding of her condition. They knew exactly how to fit the shoes to help my mother’s specific problems. Once they had them laced up (the Freedoms in black), I watched as they helped my mother stand up. She smiled at me and took her first step on her own in over 5 years. We both started crying as she walked towards me. She was walking so well (and pain free, I might add), she didn’t even want to take her walker home! We have since donated it.<br><br>Shortly after, my mother did, IN FACT, go for an interview in her coils – and she was hired! She has been back in the workforce now for over 3 months and we both feel she has really gotten her life back because of z-coil. <br><br>So, Mr. Liszewski, please; next time you want to write an article ANYWHERE, be sure you know what you are talking about so as to not risk looking ignorant.</div>\

I have spent $400 on shoes in the last ten years.  My husband has spent over $1000 as he replaces worn out shoes.  Z-Coils do not wear out.  As far as the comments go - if you are that immature to worry about what other people are wearing than you probably are not old enough to be in the workforce yourself.  I had a choice - lose my leg to swelling and blood clots or wear the shoes.  It was the easiest decision I have ever made.  <br><br>To the person who had to give up their shoes because of knee pain - I have a disease in my leg that involves the knee - it is the reason I wear the shoes.  You may have not had them adjusted correctly or something else is going on.  These shoes do help knee pain and have been a godsend to me.<br><br>Andrew - I am glad that you do not know what real pain is, but when you or a loved one are eventually faced with it, you do not accept it and go on as if nothing is wrong.  That is not a possibility.  You see real pain stops you dead in your tracks and you have to find ways to lesson it in order to survive.  You see pain does kill - suicide, and if your body is in constant pain your immune system can become taxed and less able to fight off infection.  I know - I have almost died twice in the last six months because pain has impaired my immune system.  Please do not impose your immaturity and shortsightedness on everyone else by posting such things as this "article" on the internet.  In the end, you are simply showing your lack of compassion for others.  Remember the Golden Rule.<br><br>As for everyone else - I live - literally- by my Z-Coils.  I get lots of comments and if they are from people who truly want to understand, I gladly explain all about the shoes.  If you are wanting to make fun of me - well my family and I have answers for you as well - such as we want to be kangaroos as we go bouncing off together.</div>\
