A lovely sandal but not for thicker ankles or ankles prone to swelling
Picked these sandals up as an addition to my summer wardrobe. I love the neutral colour of them, but the decorative bit gives it a nice pop of colour! I often struggle to find shoes for summer that will be comfortable - I have small but wide feet, with a high instep and very short toes (I'm often teased for having "baby toes"). This often leads to shoes rubbing against my toes or across the instep, and having small toes means less grip so my foot often slides back and forth, giving me nasty blisters on my sole. Shoes that fit me well tend to have adjustable velcro straps and look very much like "granny" sandals. I was worried that in person, these may also look like granny sandals, but I'm pleased to report that they do not. It might be that little decorative bit that saves them. The ankle strap is stretchy, so no buckles to fiddle with, but since it is not adjustable I do have concerns for once it starts getting warmer and my ankles swell. I am hoping that these do not cut into my ankles at that point, but I have no way of knowing that yet. So far, they have been very comfortable.
I would recommend this product
