I found that too, Melody. They were biting my feet. They are comfy though. I wish they would make them in a leather! They would be that much nicer to wear and much more stylish for the office. I have a pair of Mary Janes from Dr. Scholls that are at least 4 yrs old, if not 5 and they are showing their age, but so comfy. I have GOT to find a new pair soon, the doc will not let me wear slippers to work! I am so sickof shoe shopping, there is nothing out there that my feet want! They do have a mind of their own!!!
