text: I really, REALLY wanted to buy these sandals, but after trying them on at a brick-and-mortar store, I couldn't.  I typically wear a 9E (the circumference of each of my feet is about 10 inches, measured at the widest part just behind the toes), and the strap across the instep was a little short, although it mated with the Velcro patch acceptably.  The front strap, however, was MUCH too short; I'd have to add an inch of fabric to make it fit.  I'd like to believe that Dr Scholl was a fine podiatrist, but whoever has taken his licensed name has done it a terrible injustice.  For cryin' out loud, how much can an extra inch of Velcro cost?  The &#34;hook&#34; section is about 1/2 inch square, whereas the same corresponding section on my ancient Dunham sandals is easily three inches long and gives much more flexibility in fit and comfort.  The soles and non-adjustable back strap were comfortable and my toes didn't hang over the front as some reviewers have mentioned, but that front strap length was a deal-breaker.  If you have teeny tiny narrow feet, they might work for you.
