text: These shoes turned out not to be what I expected at all.  I had ordered a slightly larger size than I usually get but they still seem to feel too tight across the balls of my feet.  They also offered very little if any support and my feet were aching after just an hour of standing and walking while shopping.  I was quite disappointed.  I almost returned the shoes but I had worn them outside my home so I decided to keep them for short term home use only.
