I always purchase 9W shoes and require arch support and stability. I purchased a pair of tie skechers that work quite well for exercise walking. I thought these would be great for general use, run around town kind of wear. While the shoes do provide stability and arch support, they are much TOO wide and oddly TOO big;they do not fit nearly as well as the Skecher tie shoes I bought. Further, the shoes caused an odd burning sensation along the side of my right foot and no matter how thick the socks were that I used these shoes did not fit at all. Not at all true to size. Unfortunately, I didn't discover these problems until after wearing them outdoors so could not return them. Wasted money and very disappointing.
These are great shoes, I consider them kind of dressy. this is second pair that I own. I bought first pair at store. I liked so much, I wanted another pair to only for the dressing up jeans.
