"First of all, I LOVE leather The brown looks great with pretty much everything...it's not too dark for summer! These are a nice, soft leather and feel great. Initially I was a little concerned because there was some stitching that was rubbing my ankle but after a couple hours of wearing them I didn't even notice it. No blisters, no discomfort...these are so awesome that I'm even considering buying them in black! They don't provide a lot of cushion-y support but more than most of my other thong sandals. Plus, they stay on my foot really well. Once I had them buckled I could just slip them on and off my foot. Buy them. They're awesome."
