They are okay.  I bought other shoes that were very comfortable, but they doubled in price.  I found these for $50.  It was worth the risk, they are little tight, not really extra large for my taste, the arch support is average, so I would say they are nothing special.  They are too tight on the top, so they pinch me on every step.  I was contemplating returning them.  I decided  I am keeping them as I need formal shoes for a week, but I will not be reordering in the future.  I am sucking it up and paying for the comfortable ones.
