These shoes are incredibly comfortable! They have a lot of cushion and the hard part around the midsole gives a nice secure feel. I'm selling because I have very small ankles and since these are Men's shoes, the ankles are larger than on women's shoes. *There are extra holes in the tongue to tighten around the ankles more, however, I had to tighten them so much they looked weird. I wish they sold these in narrow! Love these shoes, sad they didn't work for me. Based on the size conversion chart, these are 7 men and 8.5 women.
