I love these, the look, the quality, the comfort. I took off a star because they are in fact as others said--too hard to get into. They are very tight trying to make that corner at the ankle,I fear breaking a nail every time I pull them on, but once you're in, they are heavenly and are super comfortable like all other FitFlops, and then the fit becomes perfect. I do have an irritation from a fold in the seam at the ankle on one side and hope this will go away as they soften with wear. Thankfully they pull off easily, oddly enough. I normally wear a 6 1/2 and ordered these in 6 in the Chocolate Brown per certain reviews and because it was the only size available in the chocolate brown boots that were on sale. Because of the problem getting into them, I have to wear a nylon type stocking to help with the sliding in. I would have returned them for a 7 if it was available so I could wear a regular sock with them and that might help with that rubbing at the seam too. So my advice, size up instead of down if your normally wear a half size and maybe that would allow you to wear a regular sock and get into them more easily.
