These are nice, however they are designed such that the shoe holds your heel near the very back of the shoe, which leaves like 1 or 2 inches of &#34;shoe&#34; sticking out in front of your toes, which makes them a huge trip hazard.  I normally wear size 9 in all shoes.  When I held these up to my original Keen sandals that were size 9, the soles were exactly the same length.  However, because of the way the straps hold your foot to the back of the shoe, it leaves 2 inches of show sticking out in front of my toe.  I exchanged them for a size 8.5 and kept them, but I wish I would have gone down to an 8 because the 1.5 inch sticking in front of my toe catches frequently on steps, the floor, etc, causing me to trip.
