Well, here''s another pair of shoes that seem to be too small this year. I would think it was just me, that my feet were getting much larger over the course of a few months, but whenever I pass shoes on to another person, who is one or, sometimes, two sizes smaller than I am, the shoes fit them perfectly. Hmm...
As it is with these. They arrived and looked adorable. I was stoked. I tried them on and alas, too small. I wear a size 10. I purchased a size 10. The shoes that arrived were labeled as a size 10. Mysteriously, and, like seven (yes, SEVEN) other pairs of shoes I bought this season, they were too small. I was bummed. From what I could tell, they would be really comfy. I loved the arch support and they''re very cute.
The next day, my mom stopped by. She wears a size 8.5-9 and she tried them on. They fit her perfectly. Hmm... She didn''t want them because she had already taken a few other pairs of my "size 10''s" that didn''t fit me but fit her. I decided I would return them, but waited a few days, in hopes my feet would shrink or these shoes would get a little bigger. A few days later, a friend stopped by. She was about to leave for Florida. I asked if there was anything she needed and she said she was about to run to the store for a pair of black sandals. I asked her what her shoe size was, she answered 8.5. Perfect. I had her try these on and they fit like a glove. Well, like a size 8.5 shoe, anyway. In addition to fitting her foot, they also fit her style, so she kept them.
I don''t know what''s going on, but seven different pairs of shoes from six different brands were all too small, and fit others who normally wore a size or two smaller. To get a shoe to fit properly, I ended up buying two pairs of another brand of flip-flop, from last year''s stock. Oh well, at least they were on sale.
So, if you buy these, consider buying a size up (apparently, if you normally wear an 8.5-9, buy a 10). Unfortunately, (for me, and all others who share my shoe size), their 10 is the largest size they have here.They are really adorable and seem to be very comfortable. Just not true-to-size (in my experience).

I''m so glad I read the reviews before ordering! I always wear Cobians, and tend to wear the Fiji''s in black (also have the foam "On a Mission"). I always wear a size 8 for Cobians. For tennis shoes I''m between 8-8 1/2. For heels I''m usually a 9. Cobian 8s always fit perfectly on my feet, leaving no extra fabric to trip over and the like.
Well, I ordered a 9 in these shoes, at the same time I ordered an 8 in Fijis. They are the EXACT same size.
Okay, about these: the braided color (I got the multi-toned brown) is beautiful! I love the shades of color in the strap. Very flattering for any skin tone I think (I''m neutral medium-pale lol). Very comfy too.
Another great product by Cobian.
