I bought the basalt grey at the weekend after struggling with the black..it seemed really too heavy on the foot. The white didn't work for me either but I think that's because my poor little Irish feet were all white and pasty. If I had gorgeous feet like yours, I would have bought them. Looking forward to seeing you style them over the summer Sue - I need your inspiration! xAvril xhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11374320337030060565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6530322011980194624.post-49399415623491477702014-03-28T21:13:41.589+00:002014-03-28T21:13:41.589+00:00I love them & had a pair years ago when pregna...I love them & had a pair years ago when pregnant with my son!

In Asia at the time the dark brown, kind of suede-y leather ones were on trend (definitely more hippie than the '00s minimalist vibe.) I didn't like the tough foot bed so I opted for Rockport sandals that I loved to shreds. A friend of mine did stick with hers and she said it did mold to her, but my feet are pretty small/narrow all over so the sandals just felt like they were too big.<br /><br />Good luck with these and hope we see them more later this spring/summer :)Shutterbug Khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14753859006730802394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6530322011980194624.post-47533216845229935952014-03-24T22:37:06.358+00:002014-03-24T22:37:06.358+00:00Ah you may have Birkenstocks but do you have any A...Ah you may have Birkenstocks but do you have any Arizonas? And if you're worried about what your feet look like - the double straps do a good job of hiding a substantial amount of your foot.

But inundate us with enough images and we will come around, eh? Ha. I am with you. In fact, so with you that I just headed over to asks to check them out. Not on sale. And about 80 euros. Which is not impulse-buy material for me just now. So I'll just have to hope that I come across some in real life here to try them on and contemplate them on my own stubby gams, though chafes of that happening here in Spain seems slim. Zara does have some similar sandals right now (surprise surprise), but if you're going to go fugly you might as well get the comfort, right? Anyway, definitely going to file this away int he back of my mind for further contemplation.

When they started 'happening' fashion-wise last year I could just picture her smirking at me. And honestly, I think I would have jumped on the wagon too (and probably gone with white as well, such a good choice) but I was sort of convinced they would only work on super skinny super tall supermodels. And here you are, lovely, of course, but not exactly 6ft tall, right? And they totally work on you. I actually love them. Once again, you have given me some food for thought here...<br /><br />www.nomadicd.comNomadic D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06303665587576888183noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6530322011980194624.post-76106078398336254642014-03-22T07:47:22.283+00:002014-03-22T07:47:22.283+00:00You backpacked in them?
