These shoes were really nice but unfortunately didn't do the trick. The actual length sizing was slightly too small, while the amount of space around the ball of my foot/toes would have allowed my foot to slide all around. I have extremely narrow feet, but the space allowed seemed ridiculous considering Im only a size 6.5. The quick release straps were cool, but the actual strap was crazy long. These shoes are beautiful though and I was very sad they didn't fit.
