These shoes are comfortable and it's great that they are available in size 12... But beware, they look orthopedic.  My husband said they look like &#34;old lady shoes&#34;.  I think it has to do with the way the toe box is shaped and the thickness of the sole. If I weren't dealing with swollen pregnancy feet and desperate, I would have returned them and tried to find something that looked more age-appropriate for someone in their late 20s, but darn it all these are just so COMFY.  And they fit - even when manufacturers make women's size 12 shoes, very few people sell them.  The strap is adjustable with velcro so if I have some swelling I can easily loosen it a bit.  The shoes are very comfortable for moderate walking, though I haven't attempted any long walks in them yet.  They fit well with thin socks or barefoot.  The shoes seem to get a little warm throughout the day (I'm a little worried about how breathable the leather is), but should do well for fall weather.
