Great looks and comfort, too.
That's pretty much the Helle way, as fans of their shoes know. I like a little more coverage in my dressy
sandals, and this fits the bill well. What's so important to me is that both straps are adjustable because my feet are sized like they belong to a different person. My left is bigger and wider than my right. I usually buy a half to a full size up and adjust the fit of the right shoe with pads. No need for that here. The heel height is not too high but gives a nice little lift. My feet don't
slide forward the way they do in many
sandals, partly because of the adjustability and also because of the suede
insole. It's impossible for me to overstate how much comfort the suede
insole adds to an open shoe like this. No squishy, sweaty feeling. I have had the black for awhile (purchased from a local B&M shoe store) and came here looking for the cognac. My shoes worked out OK, but I empathize with the previous reviewer's issue. Earlier versions of this brand say "
Helle Comfort by Romu's" inside. More recent versions just say
Helle Comfort. I'm not sure whether that means the shoes are now being made by a different company, but there are certainly differences that are at least cosmetic between the shoes that I have had for a couple of years and the ones pictured here. For instance, the heel on my black pair is black plastic, not chrome. So not only might your mileage vary, but your shoes might, too.
