I really like the style of this sandal.  I was a little worried when I ordered this shoe due to the fact I ordered a 9 1/2.  I usually wear no higher than a size 9.  The 9 1/2 was considerably cheaper and it shipped through Amazon with free returns.  So, I figured if it didn't fit it would not cost me to return it.  I also used the Amazon email coupon which made this shoe cost $37.27.  Much to my relief and satisfaction, the 9 1/2 did not run large.  It fit and looked very well.  Amazon did a very good job, not only in the price, but, also in the delivery.  I placed my order on Friday and the shoes arrived on Tuesday. I chose Clarks because my first pair of Clarks - Sixty Delta Slip-On - still have me saying, "These feel so good...I just love these shoes."  I was not disappointed in the new Clarks I bought.  I have the Clarks Ashland Alpine on now and I look forward to warmer days so I can wear my new Clarks sandals.
