Several years ago, I was working with a physical therapist to improve my gait to take the pressure off my right knee. As I was doing this work, I realized that over many years, my feet had grown narrower, and the narrower shoes were interfering with the changes the therapy was causing. So, I searched for a shoe with a wider toe box. That's when I discovered SAS. That first pair became my only pair of shoes for the next 5, or so years! I'm one of those lucky people whose feet don't sweat, so I can wear the same shoes everyday without a problem or a need to allow them to dry. Finally, the tread on the shoes was completely gone, even though the rest of the shoe is as good as the day I bought it! I became a bit disturbed when I could no longer find a merchant who sold this brand, so I did something I've never done before, I ordered them on-line. At first I ordered a slip on then found the heel to be too wide. Rather that risking getting a smaller shoe, I returned the slip on for one with laces. At first I ordered the wrong color, but sent a request for the right color. When my new shoes arrived, I received the color I wanted and a shoe that fit perfectly. SAS exchange and return policy and free shipping made my new purchase and exchange very easy. I'm even thinking of getting a dressier second pair, and maybe, a more casual one too!
