They are extremely tight in the ankle, I struggle every time to put them on! They are okay to walk in, but they are excessively tight and hard in the upper part, something I wouldn't expect from a sock-like shoe. If I wear them for a long time without moving, my ankle hurts quite a bit. The first time I wore them, when I came home and took them off, my foot hurt for a long time, to the point where I had difficulty putting weight on it. I hope they will stretch with wear
