These shoes looked amazing and felt amazing..for about 2 hours. Bought them for a costume for Comic Con, so expected to be on my feet for several hours. After the third hour, I realized I was getting some crazy blisters around where the ankle strap is. I'm not sure if loosening or trying to tighten the strap would have helped much. My feet are a little more wide, but I thought they still looked pretty good with this shoe.
