I love these, the fit is wonderful. They are built very similar to Birkenstocks with the cork, rubber sole and soft insole. Built solid, even with all the embellishments. They are pretty blingy but definitely not cheap looking. I had read a review that stated "order a 1/2 or 1 size up". I ordered 9s because I usually wear 8's. I'm glad I did, they fit perfectly. Most comfy wedges I own. I actually got two pairs! Super fast shipping.
