I ordered and returned 7 more pairs of shoes in less than 90 days. These are the guards. They are lightweight and very comfortable with a wide toe box. The only reason I didn't give them 5 stars is that they are a bit shy in the heel support department, but I should be able to fix that with the right inserts. I found that almost every manufacturer I wore before made my shoes cheaper and narrower. They certainly no longer fit American feet. I firmly believe that shoes should never be broken in. If it's uncomfortable getting dressed, it's not for me.
