From the designer: Featuring a dense, sculpted foam sole, our Sandalias are expertly crafted and sophisticatedly wrapped in soft, high quality lambskin. While our Sandalias may feel snug when new, after the first few wears the delicate leather will stretch slightly, molding beautifully to the shape of your foot. We do suggest ordering up if you are a half size. Ethically Made in Los Angeles We use the finest cow and lambskin leathers to create the luxurious look and feel of all of our leather pieces. With exceptional quality and sustainability in mind, the natural patina and occasional imperfections you may notice on your piece are due to the intention of preserving each precious remnant of the leather, rather than discarding it. The beauty that comes with the slight variation of any of our leather pieces is part of what makes your beloved Beatrice Valenzuela object, uniquely yours. These haven’t been worn. (I thought I had the box, but I just moved and I can't find it. If I do find it, I'll ship them in it.)
