text: As much as I love these sandals and I really want to give them a 5 star I can't because they fall apart.  I ordered my first pair and the first time I wore them one of the gold pieces, front and center fell off.  I returned that pair for another pair.  I've had the 2nd pair for a couple months now, they still look like new as I've only worn them maybe a dozen times.  Today I was putting them on and when I pulled the zipper up it broke.  they still look like new, next to no signs of wear at all and I have to throw them away because they broke & I'm past the return period.  So, so disappointed :(
