I have no complaints with this shoe. I had my big toe fused after cutting a tendon and I couldn't wear any shoe for 6 weeks. the surgeon said I shouldn't wear my loafers for a couple months and it was too snowy for my toe-freeing sandals. I have wide feet and frequently buy NB for this reason, but I wanted something with extra toe room for my injured digit, as well as in a dark color so I could wear it to the office. I couldn't find anything online with recommendations for footwear after surgery, so took a chance on these. I'm happy with my decision and I will  continue to wear these shoes although my toe is almost back to normal size. I would buy them again for this purpose. they don't offer a great deal of support, but they don't constrict or hurt my feet, either. It took a couple of days to get used to the built-in arch support, and if you have flat feet you may not like these.
