These sandals are great for what I intended them for. I wanted a pair of shoes just for inside the house that had a little support. These fit the bill. I would have given it a 5 and it is leaning closer in that direction as the thong part was a little stiff at first. It is softening. Size 7 works great for me. I usually wear a 6, sometimes a 6 and 1/2. But the size 7 is a good fit in this sandal. I would recommend them, and good for the price.
