Yes! I get this from my beloved Birkenstocks.

Get some heel liners or tape or felt and insert into the top in the area where they are a bit loose. Or order 1/2 size smaller and gently stretch them to fit you better. They have to be loose to be doing that.

The flippy noise makes me crazy. I think the noise is due to where the strap is placed on the shoe, not the size. I avoid this type at all costs.

Wear those adidas ones with the little pegs we used to wear after soccer. The little pegs dull the noise I think.

^sorry, I didn't check the photo beforehand. Perhaps not with that type of sandal.

If you really like the shoes, you can ask a cobbler to add a softer material to the heel to dampen the noise. I return any shoes that make a thwacking sound now.

You bought them too big. That shouldn't be happening.

Embrace it. I've always wondered if mules derived their name from the clomping sound they tend to make.

I have Allsaints sandals like these: https://www.bloomingdales.com/shop/product/allsaints-womens-ellie-studded-slide-sandals?ID=5421811&pla_country=US&cm_mmc=Google-PLA-ADC-_-Pmax+-+GMM2+-+Center+Core+-+Shoes-_-5063320406025USA-_-go_cmp-19967920207_adg-_ad-__dev-m_ext-_prd-5063320406025USA_sig-Cj0KCQjwxJvBBhDuARIsAGUgNfh7dBqfyypkzG0rJCyNfvV2iOOOKIv8vlRbcp9vHBaH9vWZUyD6GZ0aAi_1EALw_wcB&gad_source=4&gad_campaignid=19967932984&gbraid=0AAAAAD0PCJRFzKHgT6_PLbcMSjPxbbcFk&gclid=Cj0KCQjwxJvBBhDuARIsAGUgNfh7dBqfyypkzG0rJCyNfvV2iOOOKIv8vlRbcp9vHBaH9vWZUyD6GZ0aAi_1EALw_wcB

They are super cute and comfortable for the summer, but they make an awful thwap-thwap sound when I walk and the soles hit my feet (like flip-flops). They are the correct fit, just noisy. How do I remedy this?
