This was my first time buying this brand as I'm usually a
Dansko girl, but a friend of mine loves this brand. So, I thought I'd try it out. The sandal felt about a half size smaller than marked, but it still worked for me. It also felt a bit narrow. My feet are flat, so this arch support dug into my feet causing blisters until I broke them in. Also the back heel caused a blister. I'm still trying to break that part in. As others stated, the front strap felt a bit tight but did stretch after the first wear. I contemplated sending them back, but they are too cute. A little paper tape on the blisters and a few wears later, this sandal will be good to go.
