Although they look good, they just aren't comfortable.  My feet are a bit wider than some people's, but not by much.  I've certainly never needed wide width shoes, but certain styles just don't fit comfortably on my feet.  I have never had a problem with sneakers until these arrived.  They just felt really tight on my foot.  I think part of the problem is that the shoe laces just aren't that long, so you have to pull them even tighter to be able to tie them.  Additionally, I felt like the sneaker was sitting almost directly below the bone that sticks out by your ankle, so it rubbed the wrong eay each time I walked.  I had them on for two minutes and decided they were going back.  I ended up with a really comfortable pair of Saucony Women's Grid Cohesion 5 Running Shoes and am totally satisfied with those.
