they are that comfortable. But a wide smooth arch. This shoe runs small, can barely get my foot in barefoot and no go with socks on. Size 6 fit as expected, I love that it has 2 velcros. They are so very comfortable, I can wear all day and then go out and dance the night away and never have any foot pain. Great product to keep kids bikes organized! Perfectos soy talla 7. I walk a lot on campus and these never hurt, they are super light too. They do look and feel a little fragile though. This is not the same as the dress that is sold on the American amazon site.
