Instride Malibu - I wear full length orthotics so I usually need an extra depth shoe, or else very roomy shoe with removable insoles. I knew this shoe would fill that need, and it does, very well. One small drawback has been that for a long time the shoe did not "flex' very easily. Many diabetics will relate- any kind of stiffness is a danger. Over time, with "break-in" kind of searing, the forefoot has flexed more. So they are really pretty comfortable, and if you don't have that kind of extreme foot tenderness you will find these a dream. I chose them for daily wear in casual situations so I wasn't always wearing athletic shoesOther info: I have a high instep and wide forefoot and these are GREAT in those ways. I think they are true to width in the heel though, a nice combo for me. I have a light color and they remind me of a 50's white buck look (though of course they are smooth leather.) I do sometimes wear them with dresses, but of course they look clunky that way.
Instride's Malibu - I have a very hard time finding shoes that are cut wide enough to accommodate bunions. The Instride Malibu was comfortable immediately--no break in time required. I love the three removable innersoles. The shoe is not as clunky looking as some orthotics
Instride Nellie - Great looking shoe! This is a great looking shoe one the foot. I was surprised how cute they are. This is also one of the MOST comfortable shoes I have ever worn. Good support and good for my back. I am very happy with these shoes and would like them in other colors!

What width & size are you?
The general rule is that standard Men's width is D. For Women, the standard width is B. If most of the shoes you have purchased in the past have a comfortable width then go with the default.
If the shoes you are wearing feel overly wide, you should consider selecting a narrower width size. Shop For Narrow Shoes.
If the shoes you wear tend to feel narrow, then you should consider selecting a wider width size. Shop For Wide Shoes
If your feet seem "between" sizes and you cannot decide which size to select, we suggest you choose the larger size. You can make adjustments for a better fit with socks, insoles, or a different lacing pattern.
Try shoes on later in the day when your feet are at their largest.
Sizing Tips
The heel should not slip, the midfoot of the shoe under your arch and over the top of your foot should be snug but not tight; and you should have enough room in the toe area to wiggle your toes.
Women's feet often become a half-size (or more) larger after pregnancy.
Feet typically get bigger with age. People are more than twice as likely to buy a shoe that is too small than too big.
Boots are often worn with bulky socks, while sandals are hopefully not. Sizing may be affected with how much extra padding you have.
Heat makes your feet swell and cold may shrink them. Think about temperature when choosing sizes.
Fully utilize a the return policy by ordering multiple sizes, then keep what fits best and return the rest.
