My wife thought this shoe, a size 8B, was too small in the toe box. She has the 882 and 883 in 8B's and they fit perfect.

I put this shoe on and no "new shoe" feeling! My bad ankles roll easily and it is near to impossible to get this shoe to roll over! GREAT! Lots of support! I'm so glad I chose this shoe!
