My husband has a bunion problem, and these irritate that spot....returning them...sorry......however, I've had foot problems for years, had surgery and will never by anything but Sketchers for the rest of my life!  They were the ONLY shoes I could wear before the surgery, and after I am still wearing Sketchers for total comfort.  I probably have at least 20 pair in various styles. If you're looking for comfort and durability, Sketchers are for you.
