The shoes came well packaged.  Once I tried them on they did feel a little snug but still comfortable. I walk a lot and had first found these in  the Clark store in my size 5.5 which felt like I was waking on clouds they were so comfy but the price was a little on high end but lucky I found them on Amazon for less. I have worn and walked in them, found the tabs above left/right of shoe is rubbing on my toes  which hurt a lot by the end the day. Guess I can't return them now but would recommend going up a size. I like them and will try some padding/bandaid for support.
