Had very high hopes that this shoe would be wide enough, but an EE Extra wide is not as wide as my Hoka D width. Sadly have to return.

I almost feel like they tricked me into ordering a narrow shoe! This says 2E, but it feels much more narrow. I think the problem is that it has a wide(r) toe box, but the sides are actually narrowed. I loved the outside design so I'm so sad it felt like my feet were suffocating.

This is a very stiff shoe. The fit was good but I expected it to soften up a bit but sadly no.

Picked these for pickleball as they were the highest rated by the most purchasers. So far so good once they’re broken in I think they’ll work great.

These shoes didn't work for me; too loose/sloppy in the ankle and I need a more supportive shoe for that area. I think they're cute shoes; just didn't work for me.
I'd also recommend:
Brooks, Naot, Vionic

Provide great support! I'm dealing with tendonitis in my ankle and this shoe provides the support I need to walk normally.

Nice full-foot support. Lacing holes are very small, so it was hard to re-lace them in a pattern I need to accomodate my foot, but since I only need to do that once, it's a small price to pay for comfortable, supportive shoes.

I have used these shoes for my tennis matches for years. Suddenly, I need a half of a size larger. The old 8 w jam my big toe and I have a bruised nail. Not sure why, but my normal 8 w had to be returned for 8 1/2 wide.

They felt a half-size smaller and hurt my big toe. Beautiful shoes. I'll exchange and try another.

The shoe is great but it hurt the top of my big toe, as did the last pair did of another brand. Will try another brand.

The fit was fine except for the part of the right shoe over the big toe, and it became very painful after a while. I am unable to walk in them. Though I've never worn a W, I ordered a different pair of shoes where a review said had a larger toe box.

I've had this same shoe in the past. However, either my feet have gotten wider, or the width of these shoes has change.

Tapered in and tight at the toes. I couldn’t return them because I had worn them. I ordered a half size up and they were still too tight. I now look for round toe beds on sneakers because a half size up should be enough.
