Clarita Ankle Tie Sandal (Women)

This is the hot IT shoe designer. These Clarita sandals are so gorgeous and sexy. I tried 1/2 size up as recommended and it was too big. I'm a size 6.5 and in the 7, my heel would pop up when I walked. This sandal and brand runs narrow. Sizing up only lengthens the shoe, it doesn't widen it. So, if you have wide feet, then pass on these, or just accept that your feet will spill over the footbed. I bought these in black and can't wait to sport them on date night.

These are super gorgeous but did not work out for me. I don’t have a wide foot by any means but these run narrow especially at the waist of the insole (if you look at the foot bed you will notice it really hourglasses at the “waist” of the high heel which means there is limited / decreased mid foot support and translates to painful feet after wearing them for a short period). The pitch on these high heels do not work for the shape of my feet and my mid foot does not touch down at all in the mid foot area so the only areas supported are the heel and ball of foot which is not good. I sized up 1/2 size and it fits length wise - I definitely think they run slightly small so recommend sizing up 1/2 size. I love the leather and having the tie strap at the ankle ensures a customizable fit. I bought these elsewhere but quickly returned them as I couldn’t justify paying for a heel that I wouldn’t be walking in. If I had kept these they would have been used for nights out where I would be mostly sitting and walking short distances.
