These are just perfect. I was a bit worried that as a beginner these wouldn’t have enough support for my ankles but they’re magic. So gorgeous and feel really comfy on. 10/10.

Have co complaits. The look cool and is comfortable in wearing. The only thing maybe to mention is that the leg gets a bit sweaty quickly as it has a lot of coverage.

I have bought loads of pairs of Hellas but these are by far my favourite! I bought them for a competition and when they arrived they instantly made me feel better about competing! They have the security of a boot, but without the need to be broken in and with more ability to point and flex feet. They are much more secure than normal sandals, I haven't felt wobbly in them at all! They are easiar to grip on the pole too and not as heavy.
They also look much better in real life than they do in the photos (sorry Hella!), they are more of a soft pink/nude colour rather than the browny nude they appear in the photos. They were true to size and instantly comfortable from the first wear.
The additional details like additional clear materials to widen the straps are amazing, no strap digging in etc.
I actually only bought these shoes as they fit with my comp theme and I wasn't expecting to like them... but I seriously can't get over how amazing they are!
