<p>Can you stretch out the part that goes across your foot? The pair in question is made from cotton webbing with embroidered cotton ribbon on top of it.</p>
<p>I got them a month ago, wore them for the first time today and just figured out that the strap isn't high enough. I can't return them, since I already wore them and the nearest store is 200 miles away. I could eBay them, but I don't think they would go for much as they don't have the tag and the brand (J. Crew) is partially rubbed off on the heel. Any ideas?</p>
<p>i have a pair of reefs that have gotten pretty stretched out over the last year and a half...
i don't know what this might do, but maybe if you get them wet they would form to your foot a little more?</p>
<p>Wear Chacos. You'll get a kickass tan, and their great for river walking and climbing trees and such...and are amazingly comfortable. Or you can take deenierah's advice.</p>
<p>I found a solution! I just have to wedge them on my sister's feet (much bigger than mine!) and have her wear them for around 10 minutes. </p>
<p>I have a pair of Tevas I wear a lot and adore. They're amazingly comfy and get really good grip when wet, but are UGLY!!! (Pretty Rugged II in Coral if you want to see for yourself)</p>
