text: These are wide enough and long enough for my slightly narrow size 8 feet with my high arches. Because of the design, however, if I tighten up the elastic, my feet go back and the shoe goes forward. I wish there was a better way to explain this! I tightened the elastic so the sandals were really secure on my foot, but the tighter they got, the further my toes got from the front of the toe box and the more my heel started to approach the back edge of the footbed. If I want my foot to land squarely on the footbed, I have to hold onto the back of the sandal and kinda scrunch/crawl my toes up so they are where they're supposed to be in the shoe. Maybe it's because of my high arches? Anyway, they are comfortable, well-padded, and remarkably non-blister-inducing, even in high humidity and with all those straps and edges. I'm mostly happy with this purchase, I'm just not positive the shape of my foot works well with the design of the sandal.
