Merrell Women's Siren Wrap Q2 Hiking Sandals - Lightweight Quick-Dry Water Shoes for Outdoor Adventures, Beach & Travel

I wear a 9 in sandals and a 10 in shoes. I chose to buy these in a 10. I have been looking forever for a sandal that covers my toes to wear at work. When I first tried them on, I thought for sure I should have purchased a 9. However after wearing them for the day I am glad I got the 10. I think I would have gotten blisters with the 9. The straps aren't super soft, and if shoes/straps are even a bit too tight on me, I will get a blister. With the 10 my foot can move around a bit. I like my shoes wide and as far as with these are great. They do have an annoying "toe grip" thing on the sole which I thought would be a deal breaker but it hasn't bothered me as much as I thought it would. A 9.5 would probably be perfect, but I am going to keep the 10. I think they look cute and can be worn with leggings to skirts to capris. They are not the most comfy shoes I have ever worn but they are going to be a go to shoe for me based on the style. I wish they had a wee bit more cushion. I am hoping they soften up and form to my foot better with time. I got them in black.
