BUY THESE SHOES! Especially if you have thinner feet or high arches. I struggle to find shoes that fit. I bought my first pair of these shoes in 2011. They are so comfortable and SEXY! I wore them all the time including club dancing. A girlfriend borrowed them in 2014 and conveniently forgot to return them for over a year! After 8 New Years Eves, they are showing signs of wear (the velcro closure and leather still strong) so I bought this pair. I look forward to 8 more years of comfort!
