These arrived today, eagerly awaiting shoes that did not have velcro and required my adult daughter to put them on and take off of me.  These were to be shoes that I could maneuver to put on and take off without help.  Well; unfortunately, buying the widest size available didn't work out.  My feet have been swollen since having feet surgery due to diabetes.  I thought that 11-2E would be wider than "WW" (my previous width) --- not the case.  So, it was a bad purchase in that I spent money on something that I cannot wear.  My daughter, though, wears 11W and I had her try them on.  Other than being a little loose in the heel area (as another reviewer noted), it appears that she will be able to wear them on a regular basis (wearing heavier socks as she does).  She finds them to be very comfortable.  For those ladies who can wear these shoes, they appear to be well made.
