Unrequited Love

I REALLY, REALLY wanted to love these shoes. I like North Face products and these shoes seemed really cool. But I broke my cardinal rule and bought shoes online that I was not familiar with. Mistake. I bought them a half size bigger, as recommended. I could not even shoe-horn-force my way in to these puppies. I then thought maybe my daughter could wear them. She is a full size smaller than me. Even she could not jam her feet in to them. So a size 8.5 did not even feel comfortable for someone who wears a size 7. Funny thing is, the footprint and width measure accurately. I think the funky fit is a result of the orthotic insert and that black neoprene (or whatever it is) around the ankle that feels like shackles. Like the other reviewer said, I really don't know who could wear these shoes. Someone with peg legs for ankles? I mean, I'm all for snug to keep out the water and snow, but when the toes start tingling, it's too tight, baby! But I still love NF stuff.
