text: These are good looking shoes and the workmanship seems OK. The deal I caught cost me only $20 - but some warnings. First, they are narrow. I bought a 12 wide. My feet are narrow. Back in the day when most shoes came in widths, I wore and A or B width. A wide shoe should let me get some arch support using the terrific Sof Sole Arch Support and Cushion Insole Shoe. These shoes were too narrow to get the support in and the shoes themselves have no arch support. Further, the Velcro strap, is for me, a little low  so there is very little ankle support. Last, the high back of the shoe is a little pointed inwards so my heels are not held as securely as I would like. I won't return them, but they will get very little use as they are not comfortable.
