text: Straps are the issue for me, so 4 stars instead of 5. Having read that I would need to order up a size, I rated these as running small . By ordering a 9 insteadd of 8, my foot fits the size of the footbed the way I like, except for the odd strap placement.<br />The toe strap is embedded a bit closer to the front than is ideal, so my toes want to go over the front edge at times. In addition, the side straps are looser than any flip flops I have ever tried on. By comparison, last year  I bought a size 9/10 flip flop at a discount store based on how they fit, but the straps work just fine. I read other reviews stating their Teva Mush straps were too tight. Not sure if there is manufacturing variance, or if it's foot sizes.<br />I plan to check with a good shoe repair shop to see if they can unstich the strap where it meets the toe piece, cut off a bit, and restitch.<br />Even if that won't work, I am used to the fit now, and realize I won't be hiking in them, just around the house and errands.<br />Love the cushiony feel, and the arch support.
