Love the shoe very comfortable but the longer I wear it the bigger is gets. I only wore them in the house for a couple of days and I just could not keep them on. I am diabetic and I have to make sure my shoe fit correctly.

Love these sandals! Comfortable from first wearing. I normally wear a Wide width, but these are just right--so they might be a tad wide for people whose feet are in the Medium range. With that said, I repeat--I love these sandals. They look good and are all-day comfortable.

i was really looking forward to these shoes -- pretty, great color (brick), good fit (i thought). i had to snug my feet forward to get the most comfortable placement, but figured it would work. then i walked across the room -- my foot unsnugged itself and the arch was no longer comfortable. i tried it again and the same thing happened, so i gave up. i already have a pair of shoes where i have to snug my foot forward and i hate them because my feet always move back so i knew it wouldn't change with these. i hated to send them back, but it just wasn't going to work for me. i'm sure if they work for you, you will love them.

A very comfortable looking sandal - would be great with shorts, pants or a casual skirt. Seems to be wider than other Taos shoes I have

I had to let these go back -- darn it, as I liked everything about them but they were too narrow. I imagine they would have stretched out a bit, but the part that goes over the foot bows out a bit towards the toes and that bit into my toes when I walked.
I wish they were offered in a wide!

Other reviewers thought these were stretching quickly or were wide. I felt they were a little snug and I have worn them quite a bite without any super stretching. They are a nice shoe with good support and a soft insole.

This shoe is sooo comfortable! It is the best for all day wear or errands because of it's great ease of slipping in to and extreme comfort. The color choices are great too.

Cute shoe-covered my unfortunate bunion comfortably. But just too wide and I think it would stretch.

These slides only came in half sizes. I wear a 6.5 and ordered a 6 as many times I find sandals to run a bit large. Not so in this instance. The sole was a tad too short. I decided not to try the 7 because the leather at the front [across the toes] kind of dug into me and I think the curved cut may be the problem.

I was really disappointed in this sandal. I wear an 8 in most shoes/sandals. I ordered it in an 8. It was extremely tight to the point I couldn't even get my foot in all the way. It felt very narrow as well. It doesn't come in half sizes and I knew a 9 would be huge. I returned them.

Soft as butter right out of the box! My foot is slightly narrow and these fit perfectly! Most comfortable shoe I’ve had in a long time. I’ve gotten so many compliments! Wish these came in more colors. I’d get them all!

I really like this sandal. It only comes in a medium and I usually wear a medium width, but with feet swelling a little I could not get my foot into it. So disappointed. I really wanted this shoe. I wish they made it in a wide width. I can only speak to the look of the shoe, as I couldn't get it on to see how it felt. Sadly.

SO cute! I really like this shoe. I had a slight issue with rubbing at the toe when I first started wearing them so there was some break-in period before they were super comfy.

The sandal fits beautifully when you first try it on. However the front opening is a little too wide. It breaks my heart to send it back, but I heard it stretches a lot. Since there is no strap in the front to adjust the fit, I think it will get too big in the long run.

Very nice sandals and I am pretty sure when I wear them they will stretch in width to match my feet - right now I have to tap the toe on the floor a little to 'seat' them nicely, but they are very comfy and look just like the photo.
I have the brick color and it's a nice rich warm color. The foot bed is so soft and conforms nicely to my foot.

I love Taos Sandals, I have several pair, but the construction of this pair, with a solid leather semi-circle right at your toe area was very stiff,and slightly tight--and I have a smallish width foot --it felt like a blister waiting to happen...unfortunately I returned them, even tho they are very cute.

Like other reviewers, I loved this shoe for casual wear but I just couldn't get the footbed to sit right. For me, they did not stretch. I ordered the next size up, but I'm not optimistic.
Although I initially rejected the Prize 3 sandal because of cumbersome styling, despite the fact that the forward strap hit near a bunion, it turns out to be the better buy because the velcro straps are adjustable.
Thanks, Zappos, for your patience for those of us with foot issues. Sometimes you just can't know until you've really worn the shoe, given the demons of plantar fasciitis, bunions, hammer toe, etc. ... trophy of the original high-heel wearing generation. I hope this next generation knows better.

This is a very well-made, beautiful, shoe; however, I had to send it back because it was too small on me. It's not the fault of the shoe; I just have troublesome feet with bunions, and really not much is comfortable on me.

I thought these would be the perfect replacement for similar sandals that wore out after many years of wear. These are a disappointment in every way. narrow across the front and I thought the leather would stretch, but it isn't stretching. The footbed seems to be the same material as som eof my other sandals,--Clarks and Mephisto. Weirdly, they are very hot to wear. i may use for gardening in cooler weather as I won't care what happens to them Would not recommend at all.
