When I first tried these on I had to take the ankle strap all the way out of the buckle. It is way too short, it barely reached the velcro to hold it fastened. I was going to return them but after wearing a while the strap did stretch a little but is sill at least an inch too short. Decided to keep them because I really like the sole and the look of them. I ordered tusk and it is an olive drab-grayish color with coral trim- a little lighter than pictured. It is a shame,they could be so nice with just an extra inch of strap. Wish manufacturers would err on the side of a little extra. I do have big feet but not freakishly so. Maybe would be okay for someone with very slender feet and ankles.
