I love Ahnu shoes.  So sad that they were bought out by Teva and no longer make these styles. This sandal is very comfortable. I prefer a closed toe, having broken a couple of toes.  There is plenty of room in the toe box.  They do run a tad long.  I ordered my usual 7.5 and there is room at the toe, but I think a 7 would have been just a bit too short.  However, 7s were sold out so I will never know.  No break in required.  Decent price.  Color (oak) is a nice darkish tan which doesnt make my pale legs look even paler.  Happy with my purchase.
