I am a very long standing Toms fan. I bought this pair and I thought they were a bit small. Unusual, but whatever. So, I ordered the next size up. They fit but were roomy. I kept the original ones and I am glad I did. They are just fine. I think recently it seems the backs of the alpargatas are a slight bit higher up on the achilles than they used to be. But, Toms do stretch and when they do they are very comfortable.

I love that the fuzziness of the alpaca lining feels like I'm wearing comfy cozy socks with regular toms. It makes me feel more protected a style of shoes, but not overly warm which is why I usually don't love Toms. Thank you for making these designs so they are warm and not as thin and effected by cold weather like regular toms are!
