Brand: Michael Kors Style: Slide Sandals Size(s): 7.5, 8, 8.5 Color(s): Rose pink and gold, cork Type: Single strap sandals, slide sandals, flats Feature(s): cork bottoms, cork soles, PU hard leather single strap, bright summer appearance, minimalist chic look, gold trim, MK design I'm not a fan of slide sandals or slipper sandals. I also don't like a single wide strap across my toe area because of the potential painful creasing or digging into my skin or pinching in bad places. The strap here is a harder material, so of course sent up warning flags because there is greater likelihood of pinching or pain from lack of give. I tried on the 7.5, first. The base was a perfect fit but I was concerned over time my heel would stick comically out. I went up to 8. Pinching! Even an 8.5 didn't resolve the painful digging when flexing the toes while walking. I think a half size bigger is fine. I personally couldn't stand the digging, and I don't think even breaking it on would be any better. I love the cork base and summer colors. I also saw it in a bright yellow. Unfortunately slide sandals with such a hard material as this one are out. At least I gave it a try.
