So I have bad feet to begin with: wide, high arches and instep. To add to this, I have high blood pressure, and severe arthritis. After my first knee replacement I developed allergies to my blood pressure meds, which got worse after my second knee replacement. As a result, I have extreme swelling / water retention in my feet.I bought about 15 different pairs of shoes for my daughter's wedding. Wore them around the house. But sexy, strappy sandals... Ugh, Right? Almost all went straight back as they would not accommodate the high instep with the swelling. I could not get my feet even halfway in.I finally had 'settled' on a Nina from VonMaur, but it was extremely uncomfortable as it was a regular width, and it made me twins with the bride... She said it was ok. But ..really?So I took a chance last Sunday and ordered these. They came two days before the wedding, and miraculously fit.I ordered an 8.5 wide, they might run large, as all the other 8.5 wides I bought ended up going back but these were wonderful. I actually made it all the way through the wedding with no pain (severe arthritis in both big toes and ankles). And I was able to transition to my Kate Spade glitter Keds for the reception.I never review things, but felt I had to contribute, because I had never heard of this brand and they fit so well. The sheer mesh between the straps was killer awesome: restrained my feet from overflowing the sole and diggng in.Great last minute buy!
