I was soooo excited about these shoes after seeing them on someone else and reading the reviews. I have heel Spurs in both feet, a ganglion cyst on my right ankle and swelling from working in retail and being on my feet 45 hours a week. The fit flops are very supportive and kept my ankles from swelling. However, my feet are small and super wide ( duck feet!) so the t-strap is just too narrow. I did order a siZe smaller as recommended (size 6), but the narrowness doesn't allow my foot to slide all the way in, so I'm getting blisters between my big and second toe. I even used shoe stretchers and spray since they are leather. I'm going to give them another try in a size 7 and see if that solves my problem. I really want them to work because I'm not allowed to wear tennis shoes to work and flat shoes are torture. Also, I do love the look of these fitflops. The studs make them just fashionable enough that they work with anything and you can tell they are well made.
