This shoe is a little different than my favorite, the Sanita, and the fit was too big. I was not all that impressed with the finish either. So, I returned it and chose the next size smaller in a patent leather. I love it. My toes come to the end of the shoe, but there is no rubbing or irritation. That's why I like these shoes - they remind me of Dutch wooden shoes and when you understand that it is not supposed to be a snug fit, but hugs the arch, it is easy to adjust. I never want to take them off!

Although more expensive than normal shoes, they are said to last five years or more, so divide that and it comes to $25 per year. A great buy for the quality. I wore my Sanitas to work all winter long instead of snow boots and never had wet or cold feet. I now have four pair of Danskos - 2 clogs, one dress shoe and one sandal. It's all I need.
