Freebird Caprice sandals Size 9/9.5 Blush Tan with Snakeskin Patterned Straps

I love this brand, and I still want more, but these are just too loose. I'm a solid 9, and was warned that these ran large, but didn't size down. The length would be fine, but they're very wide. I only wore them a few times, and it was with the top strap folded over so tight they overlapped, where I believe there should be a slight gap, like the front. So that's what to consider. They were okay like that, but I'm not getting $225 (I see now they're only $195) worth of love out of them. It's a wonderful shoe, great leather, good construction, and comfortable, but they only come in even sizes, so they have to stretch the limitations I guess. With that being said, do your own research and decide if you think these will work. If your foot is very wide (mine aren't narrow by any means, just average) you'll be fine. Otherwise, I would think these would better suit a 9.5. They're gorgeous, though, and barely worn. They'll last forever, and the company is great.

Leather upper, leather lining, leather sole Made in Mexico 2 ½” Heel Height Fit Tip: Runs true to size. MY NOTE: They seem to disagree with my assessment of being a size 9, but agree with the 9.5. Recommend sizing down if between sizes. Adjust foot straps for preferred fit.
