I ordered these shoes for my little girl to wear with her school uniform because she had outgrown her Stride Rite Navy shoes.  I picked these because I thought the fit would be better & also she would have a little growing room being it is sized 9-9.5.  Well the shoes looked fine but after wearing the shoes for only one day to school she came home with a Bleeding Blister on the outer part of her upper ankle! The shoe had rubbed so badly that it is a sore now!! I ended up ordering another pair of Stride Rites & they fit perfect! I will never order another pair of these Pedipeds even though they said in the description that an orthopaedic physician recommended them!
