These shoes are good for the elderly and the entire population is aging. My mom has been wearing them for years. They don't last long, but for $10 who cares. Now they are out of stock on line and in the store and the clerk says she doesn't see them returning. Please bring them back, I'll take 6 pair at once in white - 8 W for mom! Thanks!

This product has been my Mother's only shoe for the last 5 years. It wears well (over a year with daily wear) and is easy for her to manipulate since it has the velcro closures. Mother's hands will not allow her to tie laces. We just wish it was more readily available year around and hope we can find it in the spring.

They are comfortable and they are affordable. I have arch inserts that I need to put in these sneakers and they fit in nicely. I have been wearing these sneakers for many years. I hope they continue to sell them. I went on line and don't see them available. I also went to the store and they do not have them either. I hope they are not discontinuing them. Both Black & White would be great.

I noticed over the last year that these shoes were becoming hard to find and had to hit 7 stores in my area to find them this past November.
Please bring these shoes back!!!! I have been buying these shoes for my mentally challenged sister for many years. Each and every pair have always been perfect out of the box.
I buy her both the black as well as the white ones and she usually goes through about 4 pair a year as I like to keep her in shoes that are clean and these are very affordable.
Wal-Mart, please bring these back ASAP!!! My sisters feet and budget depend on you doing so as she is not good with laces and she cannot afford to spend 20 or 30 bucks per pair of shoes.

I can't say enough about these wonderful shoes!! They are the only ones that I have found that are perfect for me. They can be worn for 8 hours right out of the box!! These shoes are fantastic - they are comfortable and affordable. There is no rubbing and the Velcro closing makes it fit like a glove. I can't understand why they are not available on-line or in the store anymore. Please don't discontinue this shoe - "I NEED THIS SHOE"!!

My wife wears these everyday for exercise, size 6, either walking 10 miles or riding her bike 30 miles a day. She buys 4 at a time in white only and goes through a pair in two months.. We have been looking in stores in Lake Charles and Kenner, LA and can't find them. Please send me an e-mail when you re-stock. I'd like to buy four at a time and pay for shipping.

Actually my 91 year old husband is wearing these. He wears a mans size 5 shoe and a 7w fits him perfectly. He has worn these for about 3 years and they are the best shoe we have ever found. Unfortunately we can't find them anymore. He is in the nursing home due to a stroke following heart surgery and a subdural hematoma from a fall. He is able to have some independece with this shoe and the fact that it has velcro closures. Otherwise he would be completely dependent on others. My step mother also wears these, she is the one that told us about them. And she can't find them either. Please bring them back. We need them. Management

I have worn these shoes for several years. They are just right for my work and for everyday. They have plain lightweight soles instead of those stupid heavy clunky things most of the tennis shoes have these days. They are pretty easy to keep clean and can even be put in the wash machine with bleach and come out looking like new. No, they don't last forever but are excellent for the price. I have back problems and trying to tie regular shoes is a real problem, the velcro closures on these shoes really helps and it makes the shoe look neat for work. I see from the other reviews that a lot of people would like to have these shoes available again so why wouldn't you listen to your customers? Please bring these shoes back.

I have used these shoes for at least two years now, every day. I developed neuropathy in both feet and found these to be comfortable, wide enough, and easy to use. The last time I went to buy them, I was told they were no longer being carried !!!! The shoes I bought instead are not comfortable and I cannot continue to wear them. Please, please, please put them back in the store.

This is a perfect work shoe. I've been wearing them for years. It's the only white velcro-closure shoe I've found. No break-in necessary, comfortable, functional and inexpensive. No, they don't last forever, but for the price, I can buy new ones when they wear out. I've talked to associates at several stores and they all say this shoe was a great seller. Please bring Betty back.

These shoes are very comfortable especially when you have to wear a brace due to a stroke. My daughter-33 y/o- had a stroke and these are the only shoes that she can wear. Most are paralyzed on one side and only have one hand to put them on and they are easily put on. Please don't discontiue them. At the Stroke Recovery Center, they all wear them.

My mom had a stroke and wears a brace on her foot. These Betty shoes are the only ones she can wear with that brace and that she can put on herself. She doesn't like the black ones (which are the only ones I can find in the stores). Please bring back the Betty in White (Size 8W). Her last pair are wearing out and they are 1 year old.

I have worn these shoes for ever. This is the only shoe that I wear to work due to the fact that I am of my feet off and on during the day. They are very comfortable and last a long time. If you are looking for a comfortable shoe this it and the price is very right. I just hope Walmart never stops selling them. Joanne

I USE THESE COMFORTABLE "BETTY SNEAKERS" ALL THE TIME. I USE THEM FOR GARDENING, WALKING, AND CASUAL DRESS UP. HOWEVER, IT IS DIFFICULT TO FIND 7.5 W, BUT WHEN I DO FIND THEM I BUY SEVERAL PAIR AT A TIME , THE PRICE IS RIGHT TOO. THIS 2008 SUMMER I HAVEN'T BEEN ABLE TO FIND ANY OF THE BETTY SNEAKERS IN THE MASSACHUSETTS WALMARTS. WILL WALMART BE SELLING THEM ANYMORE? I HOPE SO!
