The Arch Preserver Shoe combines style and foot happiness because it has the comfort built-in — concealed. The arch bridge prevents sagging; the flat inner sole prevents pinch- ing; the metatarsal support prevents straining — every feature of the construction is a comfort and health-giving superiority and yet the shoe is a pacemaker in smartness.
