I love orans and legends but was wondering if anyone has any tips on how to soften up the tips of the “H” as it ends up marking and hurting my foot. They aren’t tight on me and I have both size 37 and 37 1/2 but they still end up hurting. The exception are the suede or fur, the offenders are the leather (not Epsom) and of course the strass. I want to use the Legends more but those are pretty stiff too. I was hoping someone had a hack to softening these up or is it just a matter of wearing them until they soften up. TIA ☺️

I have this issue as well. The shoes fit like they were custom made for me otherwise! I have a few things I plan to try. I will let you know if I find anything reasonable that works. Currently I have a business card in the offending areas and they feel amazing but that's not practical lol!

These are sooo beautiful, especially in person. But the tongue part was strangely long and did not lie flat on the foot when the shoe was tied. they probably should have made the loop that holds the tongue in place longer or further down on the shoe.

I just wanted to share a tip for anyone who has had issues with discomfort with their shoes, especially while trying to break them in… Kinesiology tape!!! I've tried band-aids, bandages, those anti chafing/rubbing sticks... Nothing worked.

I know everyone’s foot is different, so what’s comfortable for one can be painful for another.

I recently purchased Santorini sandals and the right foot’s bunyon area kept rubbing against the leather. I decided to try the tape and you can barely tell it’s there unless you’re really staring at my foot. I don't feel any rubbing at all!

Thank you so much for this tip! I just bought them in black. I LOVE this color though. It’s basically nude for me. Off to hunt a for that shade of tape!
