Yellow flats, yes/no?

Joana

Hello ladies, I need some help
just got my asos order: these are leather yellow flats, and I am not sure about them. They are very soft leather ant feel breezy on my feet, the size is right, bet they seem to be just too roomy around both heel and toes
And I am not sure about this style, how to wear them if they stay.
I appreciate any advice and opinion

in 4 photo I tried to capture that the top of the shoe forms a bump instead of laying flat as in 5 photo when I press it down.

while I figure out how to deal with "finds", I add a link to retail page

Cute huaraches! Sadly, I understand the problem all too well -- it sounds like the shoes are the proper length for you but are made for a more high-volume foot? Do they slip off your heels when you walk? If so, that's a deal-breaker for me. You can try a half-size down, but that usually means they're too tight in the length. However, it's possible a cobbler could stretch them a little in the length if the width fits more properly. That style is generally easy to stretch because of the many thin pieces of leather.

You are absolutely right, the length is good, but everything else not so good - too wide and roomy. Nex size down is a full size, no half sizes for this shoe.
I am not sure how it would behave walking in the street, but I tried them walking around the room, ant they stayed on feet. The inside of the sandal is very soft and they grip/keep on feet, but not sure if that would not change after some wearing.

And now I know how to properly call this type of shoe - huaraches

Love the shoes! They look like they're fitting okay in the pictures, as far as I can tell.

Could you maybe walk around the house a little to see whether they feel like they're slipping out?

Well, if your feet are not slipping out, and they feel comfortable, I'd say try wearing them at home and see how they do on your feet for a period of time. The width in the toe is not obvious to the onlooker, so unless its really distracting and/or uncomfortable to you, I'd say they work!

I will test them more, but while they are not slipping of, my feet wiggle inside. The same feeling like the soles were loosely attached to my feet with bunch af soft straps
On the other side of subject, how would you wear them? While looking at retail photos posibilities seemed endless, but now I see them working only in casual outfits.

They likely will stretch, so if they feel too high-volume for your feet now, that will only get worse. I find wearing floppy shoes like that tiring for my feet.

Hmm, I think only you can best judge if they are slipping off when you walk, that would be a deal breaker for me. Aesthetically, your big toe looks like it's slipping out of the shoe, especially in Picture 1. Personally, that would bother me.

They look like the fit okay to me, but the feel is more important. If they feel too big, then maybe they should go back. I would be worried they would fall off my feet but so far that doesn't seem to be a problem for you.

Hmm. Agreeing with bella. My first thought was that your big toe was poking through the end. Totally depends on comfort. Hey, I never knew what those were called either! Not even going to try to spell that this early in the AM though...

They are super cute but huaraches always stretch with wear.

Hi, Joana! I am with Bella, that they are not going to get any tighter but will instead loosen up with time, at which point you may indeed have a problem with keeping them on your feet. I too was concerned about the big toe—I wonder if over time the leather in that area will stretch, and your toe will poke right out of the shoe. I personally would probably send them back. Too bad, because they are so cute!
