Sam Edelman Women's Bay Black , 6.5 M US

I've been wearing/purchasing the Bay slides for the past few years so I feel as though I have enough time under my belt to post a decent review. For fit/size I'm an 8.5-9 depending on brand/style. For fall/winter shoes I typically size up to a 9 to allow for sock wearing. For spring/summer I'm generally an 8.5 as far as actual length of my foot goes. Though I don't have a wide foot, I do have a thick, puffy foot. The goring on the Bay slides is definitely a plus! If sandals don't have goring, I typically won't purchase them. Sizing has been consistent on them all. I'd like to note that I've never had to break a single pair in! Comfort from day one. On material, I have the regular leather in white and brown, black patent leather, black and tan raffia/leather, and a pair of the jelly ones. The white and brown ones are my oldest and still look like new! I've had no issues with my jelly ones either, though I don't wear them quite as much. I don't anticipate any quality issues with my newer ones either. I will continue to purchase the Bay slides as they're my ultimate favorite sandal!!!! More comfy and budget friendly that other brands out there that we see. Thank you and Sam & Libby!!!
