I was really hoping to love these sandals but they just don't have the same MBT rocker motion and cushioning that I've come to expect from MBT.  I also think these sandals run more true to size than other MBT styles.  I normally wear size 8.5 or 9, and I ordered this sandal in a size 9.5.  I think that a size 9 would have fit better, so I recommend ordering your normal size in this style.  These are going back in exchange for another pair of the MBT Kaya, which I have been very pleased with so far.
