LOVE these shoes! I agree with other reviewers that they are comfy straight out of the box - no break in period - and run true to size. They're also as gorgeous in real life as in the pictures.

A couple of things I wasn't prepared for: You can see a lot more of my toes than I expected. Not bad, just had to adjust my expectations. I don't know how good these would actually be for hiking, because dirt tends to get into them but then not come out vey well ... this is because the inner sole of the shoe makes your feet pretty sweaty. But overall, minor irritations in a great shoe!
