I was very disappointed that I had to return these shoes. I wanted to like them! The style is really cute and the shoes felt great on my feet when I first tried them on. I have a wider foot with a narrower heel and these shoes fit well all around. So, I tried them out at my aerobics class. They had nice support, cushioning, and felt secure. Unfortunately, after about 20 minutes of high impact workout, I became very aware of the stiff fabric across the toe box. It pinched my feet every time I went up on my toes. I immediately switched back to my old shoes. I wish these shoes were made of leather or a different kind of mesh--maybe that would have helped.
