I've read some other reviews and these shoes have the same problem as all the other velcro strap ones do. The straps are too short for the wide sizes. I usually get a double wide for my fiance at our local store and they fit fine. These only go about half way across and they are wider. The heel is also very low and tends to slip off my fiance's foot. He's going to wear them but, we won't be buying this style shoe again.
