I have always been about comfort. I even had a surgeon tell me my feet were the way feet were suppose to look. Wide with space between the toes high arch and instep. Of course I did go through the squeezing my feet into "proper" shoes because my husband said I had to wear them. I am more the bare foot type until my toes freeze then I put on shoes. lol.. I found a pair of Clarks just by chance and am now on my second pair. They don't look great if I want to dress up a little but I am comfortable . I am ok with that trade off.
