Only reason I'm giving this a 4 is the size. The shoe is unbelievably comfortable, just too big for a size 8. The width is also wide on this shoe. I usually wear a size 8 Wide, but the width on this is really wide, did not support my feet properly. I found a friend to sell them to, so I can go in and reorder in the same shoe. Think I will try the 7 1/2 in the medium width.
