These shoes are built to be thrashed. They have enough cushioning to save you from most heel bruises, but are flexible enough that you can really feel your board. The padding on the inside is thicker than it looks from the outside, so your foot fits snug and doesn't slide back and forth like most DC Shoes do. Sick skate shoes and worth the money.
LACOSTE clothing women T-LACOSTE I have been successful ordering 11.5 wide oxford lace-up shoes from Johnston & Murphy or Bostonian for the last 10 years. I happen to be hitting a dead patch with zappo's and shoebuy in trying to find a new pair of casual shoes to go with the dockers, which is what I wear a lot, so I figured I would take a crack at these since they were cheaper than any other web site. The shoe is too long - I have about 3/4 inch dead space between my big toe and front of shoe - and the heel area is way too big. There is actually a bit of open space all around the heel. I assume the heel size will only change if I order a regular width, but my big toe is already pressed up against the side of the shoe, so a narrower size will get me in the situation I was in with regular sizes. Too bad, it is obviously a very nice quality shoe, but the last it is built on is weird (for me anyway). I may have to go to an AE store and have them figure out what last my foot is compatible with and then try to order online.
