The shoes were pretty, but the souls were too dense making the sandal extremely heavy with a very thin strap. This design made the thin strap dig into my feet with every step I took. It's a shame that they made it that way. Dense materials like that, should be used only on closed toed shoes that cover the whole foot, spreading the weight of the soul throughout the whole foot. I'm very happy with Amazon, because I was able to return the shoes without any problems.
