Maya, what size did you get your blowfish courtesy shoes? I just received mine and am not sure if they fit right. I know we have a similar size so I thought I'd check. I'm consistently a 6.5 in most sandals (prefer the 7's in most covered shoes). I ordered these in a 6.5 and my left foot fits fine but the right one fits a little weird - a couple of my toes look like they might hang over the edge when I walk. There's no discomfort and the width is perfect but it just looks a little weird. I could size up to a 7 but then I'm afraid that it might be too loose....

Love them btw. Definitely way out of the box for me but I was looking for a "chunkier" shoe to go with some outfits and this definitely fits the bill!

Hmm, I got mine in a 6 and keep the straps on the loosest notch. My feet are a true size 6 in length. However, in all of my Clarks sandals I wear a 6.5. Does that help?

I'm wearing mine today! LOVE love love them!

I wish I could have tried these on irl in different sizes. I wear 6.5 in all clarks (even my sylvies are 6.5). They fit fine, I just have a little toe overhang. Not sure how noticeable it would be...I have all the straps on the middle notch except for the top one on the right which I have on the loosest. They do free exchanges so I am waffling over whether I should try the bigger size. I know that I had sort of wished that I got the willis in a 7 rather than a 6.5 (because I had never tried them on before ordering online). A couple of months later I saw them in a 7 at DSW and they were way too loose! Maybe the toe thing is not too bad....

Well if it helps, here are mine.

I guess my toes do hang off a little but it doesn't bother me.

Thanks, Maya. This is so helpful Mine look the same on the one foot so maybe it's not so bad. I prefer them to fit snugly rather than be loose which is my fear with sizing up. No such problem on the Lopez - but it has more of a rounded edge than a pointy edge like this one.

I honestly never even noticed until you mentioned it. I hate the look of gappy sandals though. Toe overhang is fugly but this is totally negligible. Only a foot fetishist would be looking at my feet that closely, and it's probably to my advantage to repel them..

Are they comfortable?

I find them very comfortable. I'm probably going to duplicate them.

Oh yikes!

And I don't even favor wedge heels.

Maya, if you're concerned about the foot fetishists, you better delete that photo before it ends up on some foot fetish site

I haven't worn mine out yet but them seem pretty comfy so far and I like that there are buckles to adjust the width. They're not leather so I wonder if my feet will sweat in them though. My know-it all six year old son told me that he likes the buckles but doesn't like the zippers on them!

I'm sure I have lots of fetishists following my account. I've had all kinds of NSFW hose pictures and shoe pictures too...

My feet do not sweat in them, although I don't have especially sweaty feet in general. I have 2 faux leather sandals and my feet are fine. I think the fact that they are open offsets any possible breathability issues.

(There is a reason I don't as six year olds for fashion advice. )

This is the same six year old that asked me why he has to go to school and when I told him so that he can learn stuff, he replied, "but I already know everything!"
