Wow, shoes don't have to be tight or have hard internal stitching or seams, these are soft everywhere on the inside: top, bottom, sides, front, back.  I've never seen "relaxed fit" on shoes before but these really have it.  There's no break in time, just put them on and start walking.  The rubber soles look a little cheap, but the feel is great.  I always have trouble finding shoes that are wide enough for my feet, but these are fine.
