text: These shoes are really comfortable for my wide, flat feet. I spend around 12 to 16 hours on my feet a day, so comfort and support are absolutely necessary. These shoes really deliver. They are not quite as roomy in the toe as my old Brooks shoes. But since Brooks changed their sizing, these have served in their place. I'm taking off one star because for some reason, these shoes squeak like crazy. My patients know when I am coming because they can hear the soles of these shoes squeaking all the way down the hall. I have tried all the tricks I've found online and nothing seems to help. Carpet, linoleum, concrete, or wood... It does not matter. These shoes are loud! I've had them for about five months and worn them at least five days a week since receiving them. It's not the worst thing ever, though. I've learned to deal with it.
