I really like the look of the shoe, although I think the shoe would be better with a more squared toe. The shoe is very stiff. I thought with them being sued, they would be soft, but they aren't. I've had 8 feet surgeries, and this is only the 2nd pair of shoes I've bought, but I don't know if I'll be able to wear them because they are so stiff. Also, on the left foot, where the outside buckle is, it hits right on the last 2 toes. The sued isn't cut straight across - it's angled up towards the outside. The foot bed itself is pretty comfortable, although not padded. I wear a 6.5, but because I have to wear Ace bandages on both feet, I have to buy size 7's. The size is perfect. If anyone knows how to soften the sued, please let me know.
