I have been wearing Dr Scholls' shoes for many years, but I was disappointed with the last pair because the Velcro strap quit working before the shoes were worn.  I decided to try these.  They are nice and I like the style.  However, the sole does not feel as cushy as Dr Scholls'.  I usually wear size 8D and that's what I selected but this 8D is wider than the Dr Scholls' 8D.  That's the risk you have to take when you order shoes online.
