Fitflop Womens Superchelsea Pull On Leather Boot Shoes, Dark Tan, US 5

Recently diagnosed with tibial tendinopathy caused by flat feet, so arch support & firm sole were must have in new shoes. I've never had a pair of shoes fit so well out of box & even after logging around 50 miles in London on holiday, these boots have held up beautifully! They are also versatile to style, I like the sleek look of them, not chunky/clunky. I purchased my normal size (8.5 US)

I bought a pair of these about three years ago and wore them constantly for work, my most comfortable footwear with the iquoshions following hot on their heels (sorry) during summer. I decided to wear these boots to A&E when becoming very suddenly and unexpectedly ill ( not wanting to worry about what was on my feet and these being super easy to slip on and off ). I was admitted for an emergency operation straight away. Days later my husband brought the iquoshions to come home in as my feet were swollen. We hadn't noticed the Chelsea boots got left behind under the bed , and by the time I remembered it was too late. I was so sad as we had a history me and those boots. The operation changed my approach to life in many ways for the better,I have purchased a new pair (in the sale )and am ‘wearing them in' . So much as I loved the old boots and old me , it was time for a change and the new me and the new boots are looking forward to being broken in and many new adventures together .
