text: Description doesn't state that the tongue flap of this shoe is sewn together on both sides, making it a non-adjustable tie shoe.  If one has a high instep this shoe doesn't work at all.  On the positive side it is very well-constructed and light as a feather.  If your feet swell at all this is not the shoe for you.  The Amazon return process was very convenient, and I will probably shop shoes again.
