I'm from Florida. We live in sandals and docks. These docks with no rawhide laces that keep coming undone seemed like a great idea to me. I ordered a pair of 10.5 mediums from ebay. My normal size. They looked a bit formal when they came out of the box, but I knew they would go bad pretty quickly. However, the average size of 10.5 doesn't go bad. They were so tight I couldn't even put a boot on. I ordered another pair 10.5 wide. These just fit well. But here's a question for you. Do you wear socks with pumps? Me too. Do you know someone who wears socks with heels? Me too. Then why would you make a pair of pumps where the leather insole only partially covers the sole, leaving the ball of your foot and toes on the rough sole material? Pretty cheap Sebago!
