I wore them with success on my recent trip to Saudi Arabia. They are not flat but are very comfy. My only issue: I have low volume feet so I have to wrap the Velcro strap to its ultimate so that they are good on the ankle. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-sandals-winners/page/2#post-1468740 Sun, 05 Apr 2015 20:49:08 +0000 AM 1468740@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Greyscale:&nbsp;</b>Funny. I have these (but not perforated) in my Nordstrom wish list and have been thinking about these. But I'm really still loving my original purchase and think they will be keepers. Looking forward to you modeling these! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-sandals-winners/page/2#post-1468726 Sun, 05 Apr 2015 19:43:06 +0000 Greyscale 1468726@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the look. (The fit / vamp question, I have no opinion.) I just ordered somewhat similar Gentle Souls sandals that I will model for you all when they arrive:<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www1.bloomingdales.com/shop/product/gentle-souls-open-toe-demiwedge-sandals-rocker?ID=982125">http://www1.bloomingdales.com/.....?ID=982125</a></p> <p>I like the wrinkled leather&nbsp;look of yours, and the lower vamp compared to the Gentle Souls version. Like LD Tuttle as Anna said, or Marsell, both usually out of my price range.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-sandals-winners/page/2#post-1468665 Sun, 05 Apr 2015 16:43:15 +0000 Angie 1468665@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's a pleasure, AM.

I already have a few very similar to your finds. Perforated, Fly London that looks like Donald Pliner, Dolce Vita that look like Via Spiga... so again, you clearly can read my mind!

Again, thank you.</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-sandals-winners/page/2#post-1468189 Sat, 04 Apr 2015 15:14:59 +0000 Angie 1468189@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the extra pics. Personally, I think the extra long vamp looks a little odd because it doesn't curve up like the Balanciaga styles of 4 years ago - which were heels. Although comfy, the vamp still looks like it's cutting into you.&nbsp;</p> <p>I much prefer what Una suggested, and the second pair of slides you're showing later in the thread. I added some suggestions below.</p> <p>That said &nbsp;AM, if<b> you</b> love them and are comfy all round, go for it.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-sandals-winners/page/2#post-1468183 Sat, 04 Apr 2015 15:01:27 +0000 old chic 1468183@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here's one link for the Topshop sandals: <a href="http://us.topshop.com/en/tsus/product/new-in-this-week-2169940/new-in-this-week-70543/feline-ankle-strap-sandals-4250661?bi=1&amp;ps=200" rel="nofollow">http://us.topshop.com/en/tsus/.....ne-ankle-s</a></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-sandals-winners/page/2#post-1468179 Sat, 04 Apr 2015 14:38:05 +0000 Anonymous 1468179@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I actually wrote a reply yesterday on my phone, which seems to have disappeared. &nbsp;I came back to this thread anyways because I'm always interested in edgier sandals and have a near impossible time finding something I can wear. &nbsp;I have to say I think you could do better from a foot flattery perspective, and even though the leather may be soft and comfortable, there is too much vamp for your foot. &nbsp;Now this being said, I will admit to having a bit of a phobia or poison eye for my own toes and how they look poked out of a shoe - so what's flattering &nbsp;in my mind may be warped :)&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-sandals-winners/page/2#post-1468160 Sat, 04 Apr 2015 13:54:08 +0000 AM 1468160@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Deborah:&nbsp;</b>Oh, I do love them.

Thank you.<b></p> <p>Style Fan:&nbsp;</b>I think they will stretch because the leather is very thin and soft. And I could take them to have the shoe repair guys look at them. Or put canned tomatoes in them over night. I did try this but couldn't find the right can. But they really don't feel uncomfortable.<b></p> <p>Daria:&nbsp;</b>Yes, so hard to find the right sandals!

The style is fantastic for you. But I would definitely consider whether they will be comfortable all day (if that's what you want). I'm not a fan of shoes that cut into my lower ankle area. That said, my favorite summer shoes seemed to do it a little at first and then loosened up quite quickly. (See Find below.) <br />I like the ones with the crossed straps--good find! <br />Are you specifically looking for flat sandals?</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-sandals-winners#post-1467999 Sat, 04 Apr 2015 02:39:07 +0000 Sveta 1467999@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them but Angie may be right; I can see the indentations of the vamps on your ankles in the second set of pictures.

So much searching and searching. The other pair were $20 bucks. So I'm keeping them. They'll definitely work for sitting out on the deck and running around in. Plus, I'll need some variety. And thanks for the vote of confidence ...and to keep looking. Ugh.</p> <p><b>always trying:&nbsp;</b>I've seen a few in this cut and they are expensive. I think this was the lease expensive I found and I was able to score these for 25% off. And yes, good with cropped, BF. Also thinking&nbsp;leggings.</p> <p><b>Echo:&nbsp;</b>You weren't supposed to see that crease in my skin from the high vamp. &nbsp;You have hawk eyes! Ugh. I'm trying to stretch them...

Still thinking this over... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-sandals-winners#post-1467995 Sat, 04 Apr 2015 02:31:09 +0000 Echo 1467995@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They definitely look as though they are cutting into your ankles. They look like they hurt, even if they don't, and the lines from where they were are apparent in the photos of the other sandals. I don't think they could loosen up enough to not look like they were digging into your skin, so I'd pass. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-sandals-winners#post-1467991 Sat, 04 Apr 2015 02:21:11 +0000 always trying 1467991@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have been seeing&nbsp; sandals&nbsp; like the first ones a lot.&nbsp; They are cool..I think I like them best with crops or rolled like BF.&nbsp; Not sure I like the high vamp with skirts or shorts.&nbsp; But that is just me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/new-sandals-winners#post-1467990 Sat, 04 Apr 2015 02:20:51 +0000 Janet 1467990@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them a lot but I see what the others are saying about the high vamp.
