YOU wear what is comfortable for YOU and makes YOU feel great and everyone else can wear what THEY want!! (sorry; don't mean to "yell", I just want to be emphatic!) Go for it girl!! I, too, am going back and forth about getting a pair (specifically for an upcoming cruise, so thanks for the info about the need to break them in. I guess I was thinking shoes that expensive should feel good right out of the box, literally LOL) H.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13358077186589813851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3256223921182753021.post-58703041217326706442016-06-06T00:19:08.045-04:002016-06-06T00:19:08.045-04:00I'm a real estate appraiser by day and dance t...I'm a real estate appraiser by day and dance teacher at night. I have high arches, heel pain and have finally come to terms with needing a wide width shoe. I had anxiety the second I clicked " purchase" but I am definitely buying another pair. I had been wearing flip flops for a few hours before I got mine in the mail. About 30 minutes after putting on my Tieks, my feet felt so much better. I wore them all day and was pain free! I debated what size to get since I have a wide foot but my normal size feels great.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11307803561214899172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3256223921182753021.post-13708307315864730602016-05-22T11:29:15.514-04:002016-05-22T11:29:15.514-04:00Thanks for your review!

I have high arches from being a ballerina for years, so finding good and pretty support CAN be a challenge. My mom bought me Tieks last year, and though they are gorgeous, and quite comfy for a complete flat, I don't know how women can teach in them, unless you already have flat feet!! No, no, no. Complete personal preference, but I need something with bit of a heel to keep proper alignment- clarks, eurosoft, ECCO, even the prettier types of crocs are all waaaay more comfy than my pretty tieks!! I really like your blog, I just had to stop and leave a negative review since so many teaching blogs recommend them, but I want to give a different opinion and say, if you have feet that are strong have not been subject to poor usage in cheap shoes, tieks are not worth it!! Save your money and shop around for something deliciously comfy with a heel and arch support.
