Some Thoughts: Great Shoe - Blameless received my third combination. The cushioning and arch bolster is remarkable. They fit without discomfort from the first day. I usde them in Rome, Italy, walking on cobblestone streets each daylight and they're the most agreeable shoes I've at all owned. One drawback is the laces are heavily waxed and the bow on the shoe unties fairly commonly. I recommed replacing the laces when you acquire them and you'll hold a great shoe.
