I just packed this one to return with sadness. I REALLY wanted it. The problem was the knuckle for my big toe, not the sandal. I wear an 8 1/2 in FF sandals and moving to a 9 would have been too big. But the front strap on this sandal sits just a little lower than the Ollo or other sandals and it was putting pressure on my scrunched up big toe. I don't think the shoe itself runs small. It should feel as great to most of you as other FF sandals plus it was really cute. So for the rest of you, enjoy! Wish I could.
