Obviously, I didn't buy these for looks...I bought them to have comfortable shoes to kick around the house and run to the store in.  However, they are the most hideously uncomfortable shoes Ive ever bought.  I would send them back except I somehow deluded myself into thinking hey, they just need different insoles, or I just need to walk in them a bit to get used to them...theyre Clarks, right?  They have to be okay.  I was SOOOO wrong.  I ordered the size I always wear in Clarks, yet, they manage to be both too big and too small at the same time.  The heels are so ridiculously wide that I catch myself curling my toes to try and keep them on, and the cut on the heel is insanely high, so when I walk, one shoe is trying to fall off while the other shoe is gouging the back of my ankle.  The balance is so strange that they literally make my back hurt just trying to walk or stand in them.  Something about they way they are designed seems to throw everything from my feet up to my waist out of line....certainly nothing I would expect from Clarks, which are one of my favorite brands.  I probably own 10 pair of Clarks in the very same size, and all of them are wearable and comfortable.  These are simply torture.  The best I can say is that they are marginally adequate if I am sitting around, watching TV, and don't mind having to shuffle across the room when I get up.  They are quite comfortable as long as I don't need to actually walk or stand in them.  I have $10 bargain bin slippers that fit better and are more functional than these monstrosities.
