I have a difficult time finding comfortable shoes even when I go to a store and try on dozens of pairs. My foot is wide in front and not at all wide at the heel. I also have bunions. After reading many positive reviews and being tempted by a spectacular sale price, I took a chance and ordered these in a wide (C/D) width. I love them! Right out of the box, they are comfortable. These shoes are very well made of soft leather. There is plenty of cushioning and arch support. The 38W fit my 7 C/D foot. This size may not be long enough if you are a size 7 1/2.
