I sadly returned them with no problem. Lovely sandals, beautiful and well made. These are also super light weight which helps. But I did get the same brand There are some ?bad? beads but not too many. Schlappen sehen super aus und sind auch sehr bequem. Im a nurse and after a 12 hour shift, getting out of my tennis shoes and into these sandals is wonderful. Inside mesh sheds. The shoe is flat inside with no support at all. just goes to show you get what you pay for!
