Vince Camuto Merlea Woven Platform Sneaker

Was looking for closed toe / closed heel shoes that would be suitable for hot summers and pants that are kinda long on me. Unfortunately, I found these soles to be kind of stiff while the rest of the shoe is relatively light and soft, which is fine except that somehow I think the combo or the shape of my feet resulted in chafing of my ankles. Maybe it'll fit better on someone else or there's a break in period. original: https://www.nordstrom.com/s/vince-camuto-merlea-woven-platform-sneaker-women/5885683?utm_source=email&utm_medium=transaction&utm_campaign=V5T200ordcfm_052821_proddescr1&utm_channel=email_tran_ret_p&sp_source=email&sp_medium=transaction&sp_campaign=V5T200ordcfm_052821_proddescr1
