Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

After reading other reviews I was unsure whether or not to order my actual size (L as I wear a 9) or to go up a size to XL due to several reviews stating the shoes run small. Due to Amazon Prime's great refund policy, I decided to order my actual size and I'm glad I did as the L Fit perfectly without any hint of tightness. I wonder whether different colors/prints fit differently and think it would be helpful for future reviewers to state which they ordered. Mine were the tan snake print. As to reviews stating that the shoes are unsuitable to be worn on rocks, gravel, etc - duh? The point of these shoes is to always have a travel sized pair of flats at the ready for when your heels are killing you - at weddings, stumbling drunkenly home from a club, etc. These are not meant to be every day shoes and will not hold up in that case I'm sure. Enjoy them for what they are and don't complain that you didn't get a season of hiking out of $6.99 flats. The bag is pretty decent quality with a zipper, the flats will relieve your aching feet when your sexy Christian Louboutins make you want to drown yourself in the water pitcher but not much more than that.
