"I purchased these for every day work and let me tell you I was in so much pain. The inside of the shoes are made with a denim type material, which was rough and scraped all of the sides and back of my feet. I bought these half a size bigger and in a wide size so I can feel extra comfy, but it didn't work for me. Wish I could return them. Such disappointment because I have bought from Dr. Scholls before and never had this type of problem. Maybe it'll work for you."
