Everyone else has posted about their being comfortable, and I agree.  I'd like to add a detail about their appearance that isn't mentioned in the description or reviews.  I didn't look at the photo carefully, but the stones on the sandal are purple...they look like amethyst beads. Still, I think they would coordinate with almost any outfit. The sandals look prettier and classier than the photo. I usually take a 9M in a sandal and a 9.5M in a shoe. The 9M was sold out, so I got the 9.5M, but it turns out the 9.5M fits perfectly!
