Customer Reviews SoftWalk Tillman

FYI about my feet: have a 12AA arch length/width according to the Brannock device method; short, wide toes are easily pinched and make my overall length only size 11; relatively low depth around the forefoot. Altogether almost no shoes fit me well preventing slide forwards or twisting outwards. I can fit Softwalk adjustable strap sandals and Trotters J-named lasts, like the Jenn. Footbed on Tillman seem to really be 12AA, win! Straps seem to fit around foot snugly enough to dig in around the top middle of the foot, but bow outwards on the sides a good bit with a gap. When bending the forefoot they become very loose! Weird angled lengths? I walk in these by holding by foot straight, like I do in oversized slippers. The straps may be placed about a 1/2" too far forwards. Perhaps the straps would work better if they curved around the ball of foot and the midfoot, avoiding the toes. Less in the way of bending of the sole they could remain tight, with little need for a gore. Odd fit and digging-in aside, I really wanted a pair of slides for lounging and yard work in the summer heat, and with my rare size i couldn't turn these down.
