Estella Slingback Leather Sandal (Women)

I have been searching online and in stores for a comfortable, mostly flat but with a supportive footbed, black leather sandal in this style. Cole Haan you nailed it!! I spent hours searching over a few weeks and was happy to find myself trying these on in the store. I found them to be true to size and sooo buttery comfortable. Thank you!

I had been waiting for a sandal that way similarly styled to my favorite pair of Cole shoes. When I saw these they looked so similar I thought they must have brought back a design that was popular and had brand success. Upon receiving them, I was so disappointed. The footbed at the arch is very narrow (and I wear narrow shoes), making the material on the top of the foot hit at a weird spot. Even walking in the house with them for 5 minutes, I knew I had to send them back. I considered maybe sizing up a 1/2 size (which would be odd for me), but when I looked at the rest of the placement of my foot, everything else was where it should be, meaning a size up might solve one issue, just to create others. I'll keep hoping my favorite pair, just the way it used to be, is resurrected and brought back--but I am losing hope now that they are over 5 years old.
