In 2004 I bought my first pair of these style sandals.  (actually that year I bought two because my dog really ate a pair.)  Darn dog.  I loved them so much I had to immediately replace them. Over the years they have changed a little and they disappeared for a few years in the past, but this is my fourth pair that I have purchased.  I absolutely adore these sandals.  I love these for many reasons.  I really like the stylish casual yet dressy compatibility.  They are neoprene tops but they don't make your feet sweat, they aren't too stretchy that they fall off and they are comfortable for me.  I get what people say about the logo rubbing on their heel (new this year) but I like that it keeps your foot from slipping, and honestly my heels are almost made of steel (thank goodness for pedicures) so it doesn't really bother me. If only my heels were made of babies butt - i would love to have that problem.  The reality is I don't so I am good.  Go me. I love the stacked heel (2 inches) so that your not flat-footed all day.  They turn up a little bit on the toe so they look spunky.  I wear these to theme parks/walking/carnivals and I feel great all day. No issues with cushion - nice solid cusion with a little tiny bit of give.  They give just enough but don't break down.  The only reason I have had to buy four pairs is my mistreatment of these shoes.  I wear them all the time and have done foolish things like paint or use chemicals around them so they get soiled because of my own stupidity.  Also, I think they fit true to size.  I am between an 9 and 9 1/2 and I ordered a 9 and they were great. Again.  Love these sandals.  Only wish they were not out of the pink.  Sad but I ordered both of the other colors so that should help keep me warm at night.  Happy shopping!
