While this shoe has a nice roomy toe box, it also has a baggy fat heel, so I'm returning it. What we need with a "wide" fit is a roomy toe with a snug heel. Too often, as is the case here, the shoe with a well-fitting front has an ill-fitting heel, making the shoe useless for real walking, especially over uneven terrain. I don't know how many shoes I've tried that have room for toes but either flip off the heel or allow the heel to swim around back there, but it's a lot. I"m going back to Ryka, which thus far is the only shoe I've found with a roomy toe and a snug heel in W (at least my 3-year-old pair is like that; here's hoping it's still the case), great if you can find one without all the garish color embellishments that Ryka has adopted for many current styles. Anyhow, if you can't wear them un-self-consciously on errands, they provide for a great, and stable, walk.
