I usually wear Drew shoes, however I wanted something different.  The price on the Aravon's kept me away, however Drew shoes are about the same price so I tried the Francesca Flat, 8.5 2E.  They looked so narrow when I took them out of the box and when I first put my foot in, I thought &#34;no way&#34;.  The shoes fit me literally like a glove - I don't like gloves but they are a necessity in the winter.  I went all day wearing them, I definitely noticed that I had new shoes on and I was counting the hours until I got home to take them off because they &#34;hugged my foot&#34;, not exactly uncomfortable.  I walked to lunch and didn't have any &#34;hot spots&#34;.  I was ready to wear them the next day and wore them 5 days straight.  I think the shoe is great; but I have to retrain my foot/brain from wearing my old shoes that had stretched out A LOT.
