These shoes are pretty comfy considering they are flat. The ankle strap seems a little tight for me so I just keep it on the first hole. I bouoght a size 8.5 in the bright multi and they seem true to size (i am between an 8 - 8.5). I probably could have gotten an 8 but I have wide feet so an 8.5 was fine. Love the tribal colors with the cold stud accents. I am considering buying a second pair in the same style, different color.
