I had worn out my Cobian Eden, which I love, and thought I was reordering the same design.  These are NOT the same design as those from 2 years ago.  The sole is thicker.  The width is narrower.  The straps seem wider.  The old design was cool enough for summer/beach wear and sleek enough for garden parties.  The new design brings to mind images of country bumpkins coming to town.
