These just did not fit properly. I bought a 12 since I wear a 10, they were too long mostly from the end of the lacing to my heel. Therefore, they gapped all around my foot and provided no ankle support which I need because I am a pronator. They were lightweight and worked well when I tried them in a zumba class, except for the size/fit issue. They may be fine for someone else. They are real cute looking. I got the black but the red must be great.
