This shoe is terrific. I am unfortunately on disability, and I needed a convenient, comfortable shoe. If it looked nice, that was OK, but it wasn't the main thing I was looking for (however these do look very nice). I also have very wide feet - 10 1/2 EEE. I didn't hold the E key down too long, that's triple E. I had a very difficult time finding a clog/slide/mule that was at least EEE. This shoe is very comfortable in and around the house or out walking in a park. I have two very minor quibbles I will mention: 1) the size listed for this shoe was 4E - I had my feet measured more than once, and my width is 3E (or EEE), and if these shoes were any more narrow, I'm not sure they would fit well on me. So if you are on the wider side of 4E, these may be a little tight, and 2) The front part has elastic - which helps this shoe fit differently shaped feet. For a while I had swollen feet, and the elastic was somewhat uncomfortable with my feet in that state. I have since started using compression socks, and now the shoe fits fine. If you have swollen/sore feet - particularly on the top of your foot, the elastic may put too much pressure on your foot. That being said, this is a great shoe. The sole is thick and cushioned. The shoe has a tennis shoe tread with decent sized lugs on the bottom which makes for great traction, in my opinion. I do like the tennis shoe look as well. I bought the black ones, and if you wear black socks, most people will never notice it is a clog. (This helps in more formal situations) I will be buying these shoes as long as new balance makes them. The 2 minor quibbles above are just informational for those that have other difficulties with their feet. If you aren't quite sure about the shoes, I would suggest trying them out. If they fit your foot comfortably, you won't want anything else.
