I have found my Alegria Violette Diversified sandals to be very comfortable. I like that they have a wide Velcro band, as I have narrow feet, so I can adjust them to fit, but my feet also swell in the heat, so I can adjust them as often as needed! I have been having arthritic pain in my foo for over a year. I have had far less pain since wearing my Violette sandals every day. I wish Alegria had narrow shoes. I have tried a number of orthopedic shoes with no success as yet. It is hard to find orthopedic shoes in a narrow size.
