text: I purchased these shoes in December 2014. They hurt my pinky toe, regularly blistering them, or getting abrasions on the pinky toe. I had thought that once these shoes had had a chance to stretch out by wearing them over time, that this issue might resolve itself, but they have not. I don't think it's too small, but perhaps they are narrower than usual. I tend to think it's the construction of the shoe. Nonetheless, I'm quite disappointed with this shoe, as I usually like Clarks shoes.
