This shoe replaces my old NB which will accept my orthodic shoe inserts.  My last shoe was size 8 D.  D was not available so I got the 2E width instead.  I have a bit of heel slippage if I don't tie my shoes tight enough, but for the most part, I like the shoes and am glad I bought them because I had walked the tread right off the last pair.  I feel steady in them and have lots of room for toe wiggle.  I would buy them again.
