Townes Suede Sandal (Women)

Ordered these on sale from N. Rack. Doubt I would buy/keep at full price, but at $40 seems like a good product for the $$. Here's the quick lowdown: positives - great color for spring/summer. The footbed is more padded/resilient than regular chaco sandals so more comfortable. The straps, so far, are pretty comfortable. Has the usual Chaco ability to adjust the fit to your foot. So far, no chafing so also good. The sizing, as with all Chaco sandals is a bit of a challenge. I wear a true 8.5 but if I size up to a 9 in sandals they are too big. But the 8 juuuust fits my foot with no room to spare. Don't know why Chaco doesn't make their sandals in half sizes. If I return, it will be due to hinkiness over feeling there's enough footbed length even if my feet flatten out after a day of walking.
