I love Fitflops. Anyone who suggests they're not worth the price just by looking at them hasn't bothered to wear them. However, the material on this design is very hard and not the soft leather I'm accustomed to with Zappos. I'm keeping them and breaking them in which is a decision I hope I won't regret.

I wanted to love these. They are so cute, but they did not work for my feet. Something was off with the straps. It made the foot bed shift, so my heels were not firmly on the bed of the shoe while walking. Also right at the buckle was very uncomfortable on my foot. It was a hard rubbing that after 5 min wearing them around the house left a sore spot.

I purchased these in a 7 and an 8 (I am a 7½ in Clarks, for reference) and the 7 fit best. The flame color is fantastic - a deep tomato red that can look red with red accessories or deep orange with others. I love the color on the side and the bottom! The plastic footbed may read cheap to some, but it is perfect for gripping (unlike the leather footbeds of some FitFlops, which look good but are oh-so-slippery). Can wear them all day, even up and down San Francisco hills. That is important! If you buy these, spray them with leather protector before wearing them! I have never sprayed any of my other FitFlops, but when I wiped a spot off the top strap, the color wiped right off, leaving a patchy white blotch! If they were black sandals, I would just polish them up, but the color meant the shoes were essentially ruined. Thanks to Zappos for great customer service; I did not know, but consider yourself warned!

I thought I would like the ability to tighten this shoe with the buckle. However, I found that doing so pulls the top of the shoe off center. I did not care for the buckle as it does not lay flat enough to the side of the shoe.

The area where the buckle is located rubs on my foot. It's uncomfortable. Wish they still made the old navy fitflops!

I love this brand, but had a problem with this style. The leather upper was rough and rubbed my skin. Unfortunately, I had to return them.

I bought this shoe a couple of years ago in black, and just loved them. Saw the white ones recently, and bought them, too. I'm bummed about this shoe! The strap going across the top of the shoe that buckles is cut wider than the older version of this shoe, and comes up higher on my foot. I've worn them twice now, and have a wound at the very top where it keeps rubbing me.

I have a pair of white Skinny sandals and they have been my favorite dressy sandals with the leather footbed and the clean look. However in their second season, the leather and cork are gapping on the sides. They were $110 when I bought them. I would think they would last better than this.

I really love the look of these sandals. However the first time I wore them the piece that goes between my toes really irritate them. Very rough material.. I am trying to see how I can make them more comfortable. If not f the thing part they would be very comfy table. Foot bed is very comfy.

This was an odd fit. I wear a size 5, so I was happy to see these, and they're super cute, but the upper is big, as though they're using one from a bigger size. And the thong part between the toe...ouch! Too bad.

My first pair of FitFlops. These are REALLY cute! I would agree though with the other reviewers who said the hard plastic thong is uncomfortable. Seems like the design team didn't do quality control for comfort on these.

I read the reviews about the top strap being too loose, and not adjusting well...but had to try for myself. And, they're right...it adjusts okay, but they they just feel a bit crooked, and the piece in between the toes really rubs! Sadly, got to return...but they're really cute with that nautical stripe! Wish they fit!

Good looking but not especially comfortable. Well-designed sole and sporty vamp. Toe thong too thin. Chafes between digits.

I love this sandal. But it cut me on the upper part of my foot. The denim is not soft, and a bit uncomfortable in between the toes. Back it goes, unfortunately -- because they are very cute!

Very cute but if you have a small foot by time you pull the tab in place, it doesn't fit straight and pulls the top to one side. Looks awful.

I was disappointed when I opened the box - I was expecting something that felt substantial, but these felt like cheap plastic shoes. The materials felt cheap and definitely not worth the price tag. I would pay $30 for these shoes.

I have 7 other pairs of FitFlops and love them all. However, this pair hurts my toes and will not stay on my feet. I simply walk out of them. it did not seem too large or too small nor too narrow or wide....just did not feel good and would not stay on my feet.

So disappointed in the quality of the Fitflops. I have been buying them for years, probably have 12 pair but the last two do not meet the old quality. I have to return them. I hope they go back to the old style. Also prices have become outrageous.

Have very high expectations for this sandal but they fell a little short. They are comfortable but the piece between the toes start rubbing and hurting as the day goes on. Only worn it 1 time.

I have a pair of fit flop clogs. I love the cushion in the footbed. I had hoped these would be great for warm weather. The straps sit HIGH above your foot causing them to flop around with each step. There is an adjustable strap, but when you thigh ten it the entire strap pulls to the outside. This makes the toe piece off center. I will return.

I love fit flops in general but these are very hard to break in. After 30 minutes I had several blisters and have not tried to wear them again. I hope I will be able to break them in as I think they are quite attractive & would like to be able to wear them.

Do not get these shoes in black. I love Fitflops - I think they provide comfort and support like no other sandal of this kind. I've walked six or seven miles in my current pair and I live in them. But these, in black, are just horrendous looking. They possibly might be okay in another color, but the ones I ordered would make an orthopedic sandal look sexy.

I had a pair of denim blue Fit Flops that I could wear all day. After 2 blocks of walking with these the strap across the top and the toe strap rubbed. I loved the way they look but unfortunately were difficult to break in. They had to go back.

I so wanted to love these, but walking around in my house for a few hours created blisters between my toes..I think they material between the toes is too wide. I'm returning them. Now going to a store to try various styles on to see what works best for me. Standing still in them felt great so I'm still on the hunt for the perfect Fit Flop.

Wanted to love them, but the fit was off. I have a narrow foot and these sandals, even adjusted felt 'big' I even ordered a size down as I read the reviews and used their measuring guide. Just not comfortable enough for the price.
