First I ordered the same size that I had previously and they were too small (8) so no big deal I ordered a size up (9) and they fit exactly like my previous pair. The best body wash Ive ever tried! The things that need improvements:VELCRO NEEDS TO BE MORE DURABLE AND HAVE BETTER STITCHING. They are beautiful, but the right shoe seems to have a defect that makes it scratch at the ankle. I can wear them all day and never feel the urge to take them off as the day wears on. My child loved them a little to big for her but loved them. I then ordered the Nike Free and wow. Luckily, the wedding photographer carried extra band-aids and saved me from pure misery. I ended up (after 3 hours of trying to make this work correctly) moving on to this product - which worked on first try, none of the issues that I had with this product. Both of the sandals split near the front side.
