I bought these in purple suede, they are fantastic! Very soft, true to size and color. Didn't give them 5 stars, since the're closed in the back it pushes your foot forward and into the thong part of the sandal. Ensure you get the size you ware for boots or it will give you a bad cut and blister in the middle of your toes.  I was lucky I ordered the same size I would if I was getting a boot.  My rule of thumb is: open shoe I get my sandal size 7 1/2; closed shoe I get my boot size 8. Still a little iritaing at first but since I have warn them they gave and now are perfect.  The heel is a dream to walk in and I love that it is covered with the same material and color as the rest of the shoe.  All in all a damn fine sandal.
