Donna, he obviously leaped in without readingh the original post
NO, you dopt "try on" perfect fit shoes
They take a model of your feet and you pick the shoe style from a
catalog asnd/or samp[les
The sjoes are then made to fit your feet.
When you get the shoes delivered, the Podiatrist checks them to make
sure that they actually are a perfect fit and that no errors were made.
