4.5
I’m an Ecco shoe fanatic and some other better-looking comfort shoes but I wanted these SO bad because they’re so cute. I figured they can just be my at-my-work-desk shows but they’re surprisingly more comfortable than I thought for being so thin and hard - I think it’s a mix of my foot and the slight decline of the foot bed from heel to toe. Many reviews said to size up due to the ankle strap being too tight so I ordered a size 8 (usually a 7-7.5) but the footbed was too long for my foot and make the sandal not fit like it should. I returned for the 7.5 and they’re perfect fit but they were a little snug on my ankle strap so I punctured another hole with a hot nail the same distance between as the other holes and they’re perfect now!These are so nice and a great quality but I had to send them back and order the next size.I’m loving these sandals. I bought them in two colors, but seem to be wearing this color the most. It is very neutral and blends in with my lighter skin tone. I love how flat they are. One thing I’ll have to be careful with is that they are very slippery when damp or wet. I slipped on a church cultural hall basketball court-type floor when a tiny splatter of water from a drink dispenser landed on the floor. It would be nice if Free People added a little bit of rubber to the bottoms of some of their leather sandals and shoes. I don’t think these would be comfortable wearing to a concert if you were going to be standing most of the night, or for trip where a lot of walking is going to be happening. Get the Teva’s for that! But they are very cute and comfortable for short term and places where you won’t be standing or walking most of the time. The are great for when you’ll be sitting a lot and for short distance walking.These are beautiful sandals, and well made. I wear a US size 10 women's shoe across most shoe types. My feet are on the wide side of average and I don't have dainty ankles. The ankle straps are very snug and I have to buckle them on the first hole. The toe loop is a bit snug, too. I have worn them once so far and was surprised that I had no blisters from the straps. Being leather I am sure they will stretch a little with wear. I am definitely keeping them. I should have measured my ankle but I didn't think about it until after I pulled the shoes from the box. I got lucky this time but it's something to watch out for in the future.Good quality- nice looking-very satisfiedThese are the best! I love them! They are so comfy and go with almost anything! Well made from Spain.I saw these at the mall and they were less expensive here. The size is exactly as expected. Pretty comfortable and didn't rub my feet funny at all. Nice heavy leather. Quality buckle. Nice sole.I absolutely love these sandals, great look, fit, and comfortable…but, they stain easily. Were not worn near bleach of any kind, but had white spots on them after one night out of wearing them. Only thing that might have gotten on them is hand sanitizer drops. Anyone else have this problem???
