I have the slides for around the house and love them so I thought why not try the clogs for work. I'm a true 7.5 so I ordered an 8 and they fit perfect. I graphite is a beautiful color and although I haven't worn them for a full 13 he shift, I have worn them around the house and I can't believe how comfortable they are. It's like walking on pillows. The price is high which is unfortunate but so many things in life now are overpriced. If they last a long time, I'll be happy.
