privo Women''s Swift Hydro Fisherman Sandal

Just received these attractive sandals, which are pretty light weight for a sandal with reasonably good tread (lighter than Tivas or Chacas).There are three ways to adjust them so they fit my EE feet fine on the first walk.The size 8W was almost 3/4 inch longer at the toe end, so I won''t be stubbing my toes on rocks.However, I am wondering if a 7.5 would have also left enough space.My primary purpose is to use these for hiking on amenable trails and for creek crossings and camp shoes.My previous foam sandals got me into serious trouble on a backpack last year, since the tread was inadequate to prevent slipping and breaking an arm on a steep slope down to a lake.One broken arm later, I realized tread is far more important than ultralight.
