Altra AL0A5483333-8 8 Altra Superior 5 Women's Sho (Open Box)

I normally take a 8.5 shoe but I have wide feet and have formed bunions after years of wearing shoes with toe boxes that are too narrow for me, so I decided to try these after they were recommended by some people on Youtube. They are very comfortable. However, I'm not impressed by two things (1) lack of durability and (2) color choices. I DANCE while I walk. I'm not a runner and I'm not a hiker. Perhaps if you're a runner, hiker, or someone who walks normally, you'll be okay, but I literally dance as I walk, and I do A LOT of turns and pivots on my toes. After a month, a significant hole developed on the side of the big toe of my left shoe. So, I had to throw these sneaks away. I get better wear from my $40 Asics running shoes. I'm also disappointed in the colors this company offers. Most have white soles, which I do not like because they get dirty very easily. I chose the slate gray with the aqua soles. That's the best they had. I think the company can do better. All in all, it was a wasted $100 something dollars for me. I might try ALTRA Women's AL0A5484 Paradigm 6 Road Running Shoe in the color navy. Otherwise, I'll have to look for another brand or try wearing this brand when I'm not exercising (dance walking), in order to ease my bunion pain.
