These are the most comfortable shoes that I have had in years. The arch support and the sturdy construction are especially good if there is any foot problem. They are also attractive, so that one can get by with wearing them almost anywhere.
These shoes are great! I have bad bunions as well as a bad back, and I am constantly looking for a good shoe that is both stylish and comfortable. This shoe meets both of these demands. Additionally it keeps my feet warm (they are always cold). After reading previous reviews about how the strap was too loose or tight or the shoe runs small or the shoe rubbed in the toe area, I was worried that I would not be satisfied. I typically have a very hard time finding a shoe with a decent roomy toe box to accomodate my bunion issue (which also includes my big toe somewhat "curling" up and typically rubbing the top of just about every shoe I try). However, this shoe has the perfect toe box (w/out looking ridiculously "boxy" or large). My big toes do not rub, and my bunions feel almost non-existent when I wear them. They have a decent arch, and I love the soft fleece lining. The strap was just fine. My sister has the same problems as me, and is a teacher on her feet all day, and is planning to get some of these shoes after trying mine on. Also, the size is true...I wear between a 9 and 9 1/2 and so I ordered the 9 1/2 and they were perfect. Plus the shoe is just downright adorable! (p.s. a small portion of the stitching on top of one of the shoes was coming undone upon arrival; I probably should've exchanged, but I sew, and fixed it myself.) I wish these shoes were just a little less expensive, or I would definitely order another pair or two.
