text: All three women in my family love this shoe! I purchased this shoe for my daughter who was pregnant and had terribly swollen feet. None of her regular shoes fit as she entered her third trimester. She is a teacher and on her feet all day long so she needed comfortable shoes that were also work appropriate. This shoe was perfect for that! The soft rim of the shoe is flexible to make room for her swollen feet and avoids rubbing the sensitive skin. Plus the support of the shoe is cushion enough to walk around a classroom all day while carrying the extra 30lbs of her pregnancy without having sore feet at the end of the day. We had a hard time guessing her new size so we went bigger than her usual size and ordered a 10. They ended up being far too big for her but they fit me perfectly so I kept the larger size for myself. We then ordered a size 9 which was her pre-pregnant size since the 10 was so big on her but they ended up being too tight. However they fit my other daughter perfectly and she now wears them regularly. Finally we ordered a 9.5 for my pregnant daughter and they fit perfectly. We got her the tan color and they are nutral enough that she wore the shoes nearly every day of her last 6 weeks of pregnancy. Now all three of us love this shoe!
