These are soooo comfortable! I wear a wide shoe and these are a perfect fit. I find that often I go to Payless or somewhere and try on a wide shoe and it is still a bit tight, these, nope, perfect, so they seem wider than most, this may be a problem for others who may find them a little too wide. The 9 C/D is true to size as far as length goes, and they are SUPER cute! Get lots of compliments on them. They got me up off my tush and out walking again lol. Love my new Sketchers ;)
