How do I explain. I think they are comfortable for my daughter. I bought 1/2 a size up, and when she puts these shoes on, they pinch just a bit at the small toe, not enough to hurt apparently. But her toes don't fill the front, not even close. So either my daughter has small flipper feet (very wide, which I think is the case) or these shoes run narrow. I'm simply not sure. However, she said they don't hurt and promises not to trip from the long front end, LOL. They're very cute though. Maybe I shouldn't put the 4 stars, because they're very nice, but there might be something weird about my daughter's feet???I love these shoes....I've now got three pairs in different colours. However, they all have an irritating little feature in that there is an air pocket that, whenever I walk, the bottom of my heel lifts just enough to always create a clicking sound. I've resorted to cutting pieces of moleskin padding which I stick to the shoe; this does help until it starts to slide, and then I cut out a new piece. Otherwise, the shoe fits perfectly.I’ve just go them and only wore around the house. It they were so comfortable and just what I was looking for that I ordered a2nd pair in a different colorGreat , comfortable sandals. Have them in several colors.Almost impossible to find sandals that are both cute AND comfortable ... these are the ones! I was able to try them first in a store so knew what I was looking for before I ordered. There is the perfect balance of support -- with the straps and rubber soles -- and fashionable for casual dresses, slacks or shorts. The fit was just right and I felt secure with the perfect placement of the straps!Great stylish and comfortable sandal. Loved the color. I have flat feet so this sandal's arch support was uncomfortable to me (digging into my foot). But if I had a normal arch, this shoe would be five stars.I bought a second pair of these in navy. This pair is as pictured in color. I wear an 8 1/2 and they fit perfect. I have a narrow foot. These are very comfortable and I can wear them all day.Easily the most comfortable shoe I've ever purchased. I moved to the city from the suburbs which means I have to walk everywhere. My first month, my feet were constantly sore and fatigued. These shoes are comfortable with adequate support. The foot and ankle strap are supportive yet soft and comfortable. I highly recommend.
