text: I really expected to love these shoes, based on the reviews, and based on my satisfaction with my Keen H2 sandals.  Alas, the leather part is way too roomy for my foot.  I wear a solid 8.5 Med., leaning a little towards the wide side, but not wide enough for wide width shoes.  I LOVE the footbed of these sandals -- it is a perfect fit for my foot, and very comfortable.  A few reviews have complained that it's too hard, but I didn't find it to be so; it is leather over cork, and the cork has some give, so there is enough cushioning.  Mind you, they're not super cushy like some Tevas or other sandals can be.  The feel is similar to a Birkenstock, in my opinion.<br /><br />The problem for me is the leather straps that go over the top of the foot are way too roomy, and so when walking it feels like my foot is in danger of sliding off the foot bed.  They don't hold the foot in securely.  You can adjust the ankle strap, and that helps, but the upper part of the foot still slides around.  Unfortunately, I was so in love with the foot beds that when I got the shoes and just walked around the house, I talked myself into believing they were OK.  As soon as I walked outside for any distance, I realized they were a problem, and now it's too late to return them.  Sigh.  I googled &#34;how to shrink leather,&#34; and I may try some of those remedies (basically, wetting the leather and letting it dry) but since they're supposed to be waterproof, I don't know if that will help.  I doubt that an 8 would work for me, given the footbed is a great fit, but it might have worked better.  On the basis of my experience, I would recommend sizing down or ordering two sizes to compare, unless you have a particularly wide or high foot.
