These are very popular formal sandals from the Saori brand. They feature authentic two-layer cork cores and low-rebound cushioning for excellent comfort. Silver This is an elegant silver color that appears slightly gold-toned compared to the manufacturer's image. The thong straps are made from obi fabric. The underside of the thong straps is velvet, making them less likely to slip. The fabric is designed to resist staining even if it gets wet in the rain. I wore these to a ceremony and was very satisfied with both the appearance and the feel. I cleaned them immediately after returning home. There is some wear on the soles, but otherwise, they are in good condition. I don't plan to use them for a while, so I'm offering them for sale while they're still in good shape. I usually wear 24.5cm shoes and have high arches and wide feet, and the thong straps fit comfortably (they can also be adjusted to be tighter on the underside). My heel extended about 1cm (it's recommended to have your heel extend 1-2cm).
