MMy new sandals arrived, without fanfare. I opened the box, and tried them on. And they seemed reasonably comfortable. I wore them shopping, to the nursing home, and the hair salon. But they may take a bit of "breaking in."
The band stretched out a bit, so I may have to tighten the buckles soon. Their wedge heels are fine, but they make a more feminine click than my other sandals do, especially on steps. Nice! Then,
back to the office supply store for a pic, as the sun was good in their parking lot.... I'm looking forward to wearing them again.
My wife asked how they fit, and I gave them "about a 5 on a scale of 1 to 10, with 10 being perfect. The other white sandals, which I wore yesterday, are about 8 or 9." "But you've only worn these for a day." "True. If the comfort level remains at 5, or goes up even a little, I probably will order the black ones, and see if they're any better. If not, they'll go back.
Since I've worn these tan ones, I'll keep them. Even if they don't fit perfectly, this pair will be fine, and can be worn for half-day periods. But I'll keep looking for different styles of sandals...

These look nice. I hope the comfort level increases. I think that every pair of backless mule style shoes take some getting used to. They tend to be comfortable when stable but present issues when walking and you need to develop a natural feel for their dynamics when in walking.

Thanks! I don't have issues walking with the other sandals, which are wedges as well. So over time, these should work, too. If I can get the comfort level up a bit...
