These wide shoes are very comfortable to wear. I took a size 44 whereas I usually wear 43, it leaves a little space at the front. There is a system that wraps a cable which serves as a lace. Turn to tighten and pull outwards to loosen. That gives a modern side. However, the sole isn't great, you need to double with an extra insole. And the inside is covered with a kind of fur, it keeps you warm.
