I was so excited when I got them, I made the mistake of wearing them on a double shift as a CNA. I have placed clothes pins into the separation as I begin to repair these things. As the picture shows, I cant even insert my foot in it anymore. Just connect and a few seconds was recognized and you are up and running. the very last line. I cheated and ordered a 9 and a 10 from Amazon so I could take both sets out with me. 5 and got them in a 9 which is perfect for me. soooo cute. My skin is extremely sensitive. Super cute shoes however they run large.
