How much space at front of sandals?

How much "free" space is recommended at the front of sandals. I ordered these, but my toes go over the stitches. Should I try and get a larger pair?

They sound too small. I hate too much space as well but there’s nothing worse than toes creeping over the front of sandals. Don’t forget your feel will pish forward further when you walk.

PUsh not pish!

Thank you. That's what I thought. Which of these are the nicest?

I often have this problem as I am a half size in lots of places. I always opt for the larger size.

Also don’t forget your feet will swell a little in the heat.

2nd or 3rd. Don’t loke the square on the vertical strap on the first, bit old fashioned.

I like the 3 rd pair , you should have a bit of room at the tow but not loads otherwise you will trip on stuff 😬

I am a gabor 7, when I buy their sandles in a 7 there is definitely a gap between toes and the end of the sandle. I prefer 2 or 3, 3 is my most preferred as the back is more open.

I like 2 or 3 best. I bought 2 last year, but the cross over straps didn't lie flat to my foot iyswim, so I sent them back. It was a shame as they felt really nice on.

I would say that ideally you need 1 cm. between the end of the toe and the end of the sandal. So in that case your toe will be just shy of the stitching. Any more and you will be in danger of tripping.

Ok... excuse the unhoovered floor please!

The gladiator ones look like they fit better- your foot hangs out of the side in the crossover strap one. They look just right to me- not too small.

The Gladiator ones look like they fit well, and I think they're lovely sandals.
