I really love these sandals!  The only reason I'm giving them 4 instead of 5 stars is because I can't wear them for more than a few hours without them feeling like they start to dig into my feet at the top. They are a very nice style, go with just about everything from jeans, shorts, skirts, and cropped pants.  They do seem to provide good arch support.  I bought my actual size, and they fit spot on! I have regular feet (not narrow or wide), and they feel perfect.  I would recommend these sandals. I'm sure the more I wear them, I should be able to last longer and longer.
