I hate myself for "trying to make these shoes work" - it's like having a bad relationship with all the red flags that you've ignored from day one. My legs never feel good after a walk, stones keep getting stuck in a foreign surface. (Even my hiking boots with large ground clearances do not have this problem). I have to stop regularly to get out large pebbles/rocks. Also, the feet look fat/wide in them because the shoes themselves just don't make sense in that regard. I literally NEVER write reviews on Best Buy or anywhere else, especially bad ones, but when I found out I couldn't return them, that was the only option I had. DO NOT buy these shoes - they are awful and overpriced for what you get. I liked my walking shoes but that was definitely the bait!
