This is the ULTIMATE shoe.  As soon as you put it on you are in love.  I can rave enough about it, I love them so much I bought 2 pairs, and I am looking for more!  (they are always out of my size and it looks like they aren't bringing anymore back, so sad)  I even bought my mother a pair and she loves them as well.  They are so roomy in the front, and the velcro makes them easy on and off.  Plus they are adorable with jeans and shorts.  Bring back some more size 9's Amazon, I promise I will buy them!!!
