For the price I paid I dont mind these little issues, but now that they are $45 I might find the quality to be somewhat lower than expected at that price. I barely notice it is there. These fit my requirements so far and I’m not quick to write reviews for most things. I choose this pair as well as 2 others to try with Prime Wardrobe. It feels ok when Im standing and pressing down on the sole, but when sitting my toes get numb. It actually makes my living room look better. They feel super heavy for sandals (heavier than my shoes). L’écouteur droit se décharge aussi plus vite. I needed an open sandal with a moderate heel. Since the next size smaller was sold out, I decided to keep them since she liked them so well.
