I ordered a 9.5 wide shoe and when I took it out of the box I knew it would be too small and too narrow. But I tried them on and to my great surprise they fit perfectly. I took a chance and wore them a full 10 hour work day with no other shoes to switch to if I had a problem and I'm happy to report that they were extremely comfortable throughout the day. They fit well out of the box; Beautifully made, beautiful finish and 100% satisfied. I have never bought this brand but will definitely buy again.
