Comfort at last. I have a problem with shoes; have always worn New Balance tennies. I have MS affecting my right side, and also have lymphedema on my right side. My shoe size is still growing, wear about 11-11 1/2 on right foot and 10 on left foot. We are going on tour in Germany, and I wanted a comfortable shoe that didn't really look awkward. I am a large person, and some of those cute shoes look ridiculous on me. I got these shoes and wore them the first time to a wedding reception/dance. I danced for about 1 1/2 hours total. Except for the swelling, which does cause some pain, my feet felt great. The second time I wore them, I went shopping the day after Thanksgiving (Black Friday) and left home at 4 AM and returned home at 8 PM. My feet didn't hurt. I have worn them since, and can't complain. I took one insole out of the right, and so far that's the only modification I made. May add one to the left shoe at some point. The velcro helps with the width, so I can loosen them if need be. They will adapt for me as dress shoes, or blue jean shoes, as that will be the extent of 98% of our days!! Definitely a good shoe. My first purchase will lead to more, and I also did purchase some socks, and those were great too.
