Simply Amazing! I CAN WALK AGAIN! Before I got my Z-CoiL¢ç shoes, I had to get a wheelchair just for simple shopping visits. I'm only 18! How embarrassing. Now when I go out wearing my Z-CoiL¢ç shoes, I get compliments about how cool my shoes are and I feel as if I can walk for an eternity! My pain medication intake has greatly decreased and I finally feel and look my age.

Since turning 14, I have had two back surgeries and six back injections and was facing a third back surgery to fix a ruptured disc. I have a genetic disc disorder and my spinal discs herniate and rupture about every two years. Now no doctor will touch me because I¡¯m so young and have already had too much work done. I finally got a pair of Z-CoiL¢ç shoes, and it¡¯s the only thing that has helped me.

The people who sold me these shoes at the Z-CoiL¢ç store in Irving, Texas, were just wonderful. They were so very kind and understanding and just great people. I will definitely be a regular customer.

What can I say? Amazing shoes, GREAT customer service—what more can a person ask for? I will certainly be wearing Z-CoiL¢ç shoes until my time is up.

My wife Kathy and I suffer from rheumatoid arthritis (RA). My wife has degenerative disc disorder and a fusion from a broken back caused by a car accident. She is currently disabled and has been in the care of a pain management doctor for many years.

I have had increasing problems with RA over the past ten years or so, often requiring the use of a cane or simply staying home. My attacks have generally lasted at least a week.

During the course of my wife¡¯s fusion, physical therapy, and subsequent visits to the surgeon and pain management doctors over the past two years, we noticed many nurses wearing very odd footwear. We discussed the footwear with a couple of nurses who extolled the benefits of having springs on their feet and these ladies and gentlemen were convinced that they would have been forced to give up their profession were it not for these comfortable shoes.

I purchased a pair of Z-CoiL¢ç shoes in early January 2005. Now that I am used to Z-CoiL¢ç shoes, all other shoes hurt. I have had only two minor RA attacks (less than one day) this winter and spring--I can only attribute this to the Z-CoiL¢ç shoes and the cushion that they add to every step.

As an engineer, I can appreciate that springs behave in a unique manner of physics known as Hooke¡¯s law: the force exerted is a linear function of extension or compression. In other words, the spring slows your step down with a slow, constant force, rather than an abrupt stop. Other types of cushion are of little use at the start of the step and then are abrupt at the end, soft then hard. The Z-CoiL¢ç spring is constant and prevents the body from being jarred abruptly.

My wife also uses your product, as does my mother-in-law, and I am encouraging my father to seek out and use this product. One result we¡¯ve had is that both my wife and I can now stand in line at the grocery store, something we could not tolerate before due to pain. Now I can stand in line and I am not in pain at all.

I am impressed with your product. The benefits have exceeded my expectations by far, and the improvement in our quality of life has been outstanding. Thank you.

I was born with scoliosis (curvature of the spine), but never felt it until I hit my 40's. At age 43, I developed constant left heel pain and hip pain that was occasional, but made me miserable when I had it. I tried all kinds of expensive shoes plus different types of exercise. Nothing helped. I started to limp and felt embarrassed when people stared at me. Then I bought my Z-CoiL sandals. They felt much better than other shoes, but they didn't have enough arch support. I took them back to the store, where they were adjusted to perfection. Goodbye pain.

Now I have the clogs and athletic shoes, which are wonderful. I also have the Mary Janes. They are not as comfortable, but presentable for special occasions. My next purchase will be the hiking shoes, if they are wide enough. What I have found is that you can't insist on a style of Z-CoiL because you like how it looks. You have to try different styles on and get the one that feels the best. Different styles come in different widths. My feet are slightly wide, so I can wear the above-named shoes, but maybe not all Z-CoiL shoes are right for me.

I would like to thank the man who invented the Z-CoiL, and all others who helped to bring them to fruition. You have given me my life back.

My mother works in a blood lab/blood bank in Albuquerque, NM. She got a pair of your shoes about seven to ten years ago and she's never worn another shoe since. She's had countless back surgeries for scoliosis and has a herrington rod permanently affixed to her spine. The shoes alleviated SO MUCH of her pain!

I then decided to try on her shoes. I've had a broken back and fibromyalgia. Bulging disks, low spinal fluid, calcification, and rheumatoid arthritis on top of everything else. In the short time I walked around her house, I felt like a whole new person, capable of walking to a mailbox again. I'm 32 and can only walk with a cane for assistance.

I will be purchasing some of your shoes, and my mother will continue to purchase ONLY your shoes! We can't thank you enough for your heartbreakingly wonderful product. If walking every day was pure hell and someone gave you instant relief, you'd praise them daily. I can't tell you how many people I send to this site on a daily basis, and I don't even have your shoes yet. ...and no, I don't want freebies! *laughing*

Thank you again, and if you want to do anything -- please bring your shoes to Canada! I moved here to marry the man of my dreams and ended up too far from one of your stores for fitting!!!
