The fit was as advertised. However there is no soft backing on the leather so it chaffs and it cuts. The velcro was not trimmed properly along the strap so that was another sharp edge to cut into my ankle. The beginning and end of the straps are located higher than in normal sandals, so it it always rubbing against the ankle bone. I wore it for a month hoping it would soften and break in over time but have had no such luck.<br />If you ever wonder why people commit fashion faux pas like wear socks with their sandals - it's because of incredibly uncomfortable sandals like these.
