I have had these shoes for a few months now and I can't say enough good things. I have to buy specialty shoes because I have had foot surgery and one of my feet is extremely wide. So, naturally, it is hard to find shoes that actually look good and feel good. I've gotten several positive comments on these shoes and they feel great. They are minimalist, so they aren't for everyone. But, I use them for marching in parades and I feel that they provide plenty of support and traction. I normally wear 8/12 in women's shoes and I bought the 7 2E and they fit great. They are even nice looking enough to wear to work with a variety of outfits.
