If your lifestyle or job requires you to be on your feet all day, you know that the right shoes can make or break your week. Sure, there’s no shortage of sneakers that claim to have stellar support and impressive shock absorption — but how many of those actually deliver?

Lucky for your overworked tootsies, Yhoon Walking Shoes have the reviews to back up the claims. And a sale price, for Presidents' Day weekend, that can't be beat. Many of the 8,000+ five-star Amazon reviewers — including nurses, teachers and essential workers — report that these shoes give the feeling of walking on air. Sounds great to us. Even better? They're now down from $43 to just $29 for the holiday weekend (prices start there but vary depending on color and size). Yhoons do the work of expensive designer sneakers at a fraction of the price.

Amazon will give you free shipping, too. But if you have Amazon Prime, you’ll get so much more — from access to new movies to two-day shipping on many items. Not yet a member? No problem. You can sign up for your free 30-day trial here.

These sock-like kicks are made of a lightweight woven fabric and are stretchy enough to be slipped on and off without having to fiddle around with laces. Yhoon’s incredible walking shoes have garnered thousands of reviews from shoppers who walk a lot.

The cushioned construction earned praise from a nursing student who wrote, “These shoes are the best sneakers I have ever worn! I started out nursing school wearing clogs...and my feet would kill me after wearing them for just three hours. I bought these because it said they were super cushioned and make your feet feel supported, and they definitely do just that. Best purchase I have made for nursing school.”

Another wrote: “I’m a nurse.... I love these shoes... Not one shift has gone by where I haven’t been complimented on them either...great price, great support.” It's a fact: The Yhoon sneakers are super cute. Among the 16 available colors are black, gray, navy and purple.

Doctors love the Yhoon walking shoe, too. Board-certified podiatrist Dr. Polina Zaydenberg says the sole offers excellent shock absorption. As she told Yahoo Life: “The platform is great for heel pain and metatarsalgia [pain in the ball of the foot].” Dr. Zaydenberg also raves about the accommodative toe box — a must for those with bunions or hammertoes.

“I work for a hotel so there is a lot of back and forth going on. No longer do I come home in pain. My feet and back don’t hurt anymore,” said a five-star reviewer.

Many reviewers remark on how lightweight the Yhoon walking shoe is, despite its chunky sole. And all comment on its comfort. “I am an essential worker and often pickup shifts in my hospital's emergency dept. So needless to say I am on my feet quite a lot,” wrote a shopper. “The comfort of the shoe is ridiculous and [it's] so easy to slip on/off.”

“Loved these shoes. Bought them for eight hours of walking around NYC. I have wide feet and am healing from herniated L4 and L5 discs. Absolutely no foot, back or leg discomfort at all,” reports a happy customer.

“Goodness gracious. I finally found shoes that I can wear all day that don't hurt my feet,” said a relieved shopper. “I have bunions and it makes it soo hard to find shoes that don’t hurt. I work at a hospital and have to walk a lot, up and down stairs all day long...[Yhoon] literally feels like walking on air. I was clicking my heels and skipping down the hallway at the hospital showing my friends....”

“In my job, there are no breaks. I stand for hours and everyone asks why is it that I am never tired,” wrote a happy reviewer. “I have had other good working, standing, walking shoes. None compare to this.” Grab these Yhoon shoes at a discount while you can, and stroll into March with a new spring in your step.
