I've never owned a pr from Comfortiva before--saw them in a catalog that comes to the house regularly. I LOVE the cork color. The style is different, and sort of 1/2 shoe and 1/2 sandal. I liked that the shoe has a closed in heel. My heels are narrow but the fit of this 10 Narrow shoe is pretty good. My foot does propel forward when stepping and the toes of course move forward. I'm still in the shoe though! I normally wear a 9.5 narrow or medium(B), but the footbed at the toes is pointed, and I have long toes.  So I decided to try the 10. I could probably wear the 9,5 and may just order another color to see. There are no choices left in my 10 narrow. My toes may go over the end if I do that.  I love the leather cork color and the leather is a good grade. I bought this for all the velcro straps which are wonderful when your feet vary, depending on walking, sitting, health, etc.  Overall, I am very pleased with the shoe and will probably keep it. It does cover some of the foot, which I was wanting. But doesn't cover much of my toes.  Wish the strap came down a little further.
