The beads are beautifully colored and perfectly sized. All are comfortable and my go to shoes if I am going to be spending any amount of time on my feed. Even though theyre really tall, the platform does help to offset the height. Ism true to 6,5 but my toes r bit too close to comfort to the edge. His only complaint is that there is no heel strap to keep them on, but at the time of purchase the only reasonably priced option (for the grand foot pain experiment) was this style. I am happy with them. I wore the same pair for 2-3 summers and just bought a new pair for vacation. It sat in my ears comfortably, with no fatigue. Overall worth it for the price point and sound quality. These are a BIG MISS for Chaco.
