text: I've owned these sandals for a couple of months now and wanted to really like them. The size that I purchased fit my foot as expected, with one exception--the distance between the top of the sole and the bottom of the leather support seems too big. I don't think that this extra room would be a big deal for a lighter sandal or flip-flop, but this item is a little on the heavy side. As I walk, I seem to be compensating with my upper foot and toes--to keep the sandal from slipping off or tripping me. This definitely causes foot fatigue. Anyways, I didn't notice this right away or I would have returned them immediately. Must have occurred gradually as I broke-on the sandal.<br />On a positive note, I do like the insole and foot support (arch, etc.) of the sandal, it the upper straps fit a little more snug, I think I'd really enjoy these.
