These shoes are very comfortable.  No need to break these shoes in they are perfect right out of the box.  Because I have problems with my feet, I have purchased many different brands of shoes and these shoes run true to size in both length and width.  In my experience Soft Spots run alittle wide.  Softwalk runs true to size.  Nike runs a little narrow.  Naturalizer runs big in both length and width.  So if you have purchased any of the above you have something to compair this shoe to.
