These sandals were comfortable from the moment I put them on. What I like is that I can adjust all three straps and that makes all the difference. Most sandal like this only have one or two adjustable straps and I find there's always a place where one of the straps is to wide or doesn't fit. My foot is a little wider in the front but very narrow across the instep and ankle. I'd say that these may be a little on the more narrow side. They are super comfortable and I didn't have any blister or rubbing anywhere. After wearing these I bought two more pairs.
