I was in search of a red pair of sandals, so I ordered these Earth Asters and Vionic Paros. (The Vionics in 5 were larger than the Earth sandals in 6!) The straps on these sandals were too long and when tightened as needed, overlapped clumsily with one another. Luckily for my mom, the shoes fit her perfectly, so she now has a beautiful pair of red sandals and I'm still shopping.
