i ordered the wide cause it was like 40.00 cheaper but i do not have wide feet.  i have been moderately obsessed with alegria since i broke my foot last year and disabled for four months.  the only shoe that is totally comfy.  well...the wide is perfect cause it is adjustable but as many have said, the top strap is NOT gold but the same as the second strap.  i like this better.  i wear a straight size 11 but the 10.5-11 feels great.  i really like these shoes.the perfect size:)
