I love these so much that I own three pairs of this Shay model (different colors) and one pair of the Shay Mary Janes. Tight at first, yes, but they molded to my feet fairly quickly and are my favorite shoes to wear. I wore them almost daily for about 8 months, took them on a trip to Europe with me and they've held up fantastically.

I read somewhere how a reviewer described them as the ideal shoes for a person who does not normally like to wear shoes. That's exactly how I feel. Love 'em. And my oldest pair is so adjusted to my foot by now that I can wear it with custom orthotics AND socks. So to all of you out there who think these are too narrow: Give it some time and you'll be glad you did.
