I first fell in lust with these shoes when I saw them on Zulily for $26.99. I had just purchased eight pairs of shoes in July, so I told myself “No, no, no Deb you do not need any more shoes”. I closed out of my computer and went on about my day.
Later that afternoon the pull was too great. I went back on the site to order them. Gone! I immediately went to the Zappos site. They were more expensive but I had to have them. I ordered my usual solid size eight. When they arrived I put them on and they seemed a little big. I decided to order the 7 1/2s before returning the eights. The 7 1/2s fit perfectly. My feet are on the wide side and there is plenty of room to stretch out my toes. I had no problem at all getting them on and did not need a shoehorn like some other reviewers did. I am so glad I did not order my usual size 8 from Zulily because they would have been too big and I would not have been able to return them. I don’t plan to wear them with socks but I would probably need the size 8 if I wanted to wear them with socks. Love, love, love these shoes!

The shoes were snug when I first got them but stretched out after a few hours wear. A few modifications to make more comfortable: 1. I had to cut the side seams a little beside the eyelets to be able to put them on but it'll probably be fine for normal feet. (I have a high instep.) 2. I removed the insole and replaced it with an orthotic. Both modifications helped tremendously and now I love these shoes!

All my shoes are a size 9 so that's the size I ordered. When I first tried them on I was wearing a normal sock, and I almost could not fit my foot inside. They were waaaay too tight all around -- like I had put on a smaller size shoe. I was about to pack them back up immediately for a return, and then I had the idea to try them on with a shoe liner/pedi. This time they felt much more like a normal size 9. However they were still too narrow in the toe box, squeezing my toes together. The length was fine but I could still feel the end of the shoe with the tips of my toes. I only walked around in them for 5 minutes in my home and they were OK comfort-wise, but I think maybe with longer wear my toes hitting the end of the shoe would become a problem. Sadly, I did decide to return these. They are a cute shoe otherwise.
To me it seems like they measured the materials for making this shoe EXACTLY and forgot to add a small margin for when they put the shoe together. If you plan to only wear these barefoot or with a liner, I think getting them in your normal size might be OK. If you ever want to wear these with socks or if your foot runs a bit wider, you might want to try these in a bigger size.

I love these shoes, they are super cute! I don't like slip-on so added laces and they are perfect.

The sizing runs true to the Blowfish sandals that I own (sometimes with sneakers I need a larger size). These are cute and I wanted to keep them. However, the toe box is very narrow so they are going back.

These are really cute but they are not comfortable at all. I can only wear them for an hour before they are just unbearable.

These didn’t disappoint. I typically wear a 6 or 6.5 depending on the shoe. Per the reviews, I ordered a 7. They are perfect!! They ARE a bit hard to get on the first time but break in quickly and I wore them for several hours comfortably. The 2nd time, they were much easier to get on. I bought them because I’m having spinal surgery and won’t be able to reach down to tie my shoes for several weeks, so I needed some slip-ons. These are VERY cute, very well made and I may buy a couple more pair. If you are on the fence, buy a full size above your “smallest” size (i.e. “I wear a 6 in sandals”) and they should be fine. These could handle a very thin invisible sock, but nothing thicker. I have average width feet and have plenty of room in the toe box. Overall very comfortable.

Although I ordered grey and the label on the box states "grey", the actual shoes were white. I'm keeping them anyway because they are cute but just a warning.

These shoes are cute and comfy. They seem true to size and width. I got them in white so they get dirty fast. I spray them with scotch guard before I wear them and they clean up easily with a damp cloth. wash after 4 or 5 all day wears.
They are VERY slick on the bottom right out of the box. Scary slick! I roughed them up on our sidewalk and again in a Target parking lot. After that, they have been great!
I wear them with shorts, dresses, ankle jeans,straight jeans and skinny jeans. I love them.

I love these shoes! I’m a teacher and on my feet all day, and these are comfortable enough for me to wear all day. My feet are really wide, and I’ve stretched them out a smidge. They probably would have been more comfortable if they came in wide, but they don’t hurt at all. I love them and will buy more. I get lots of compliments on them.

Size 7, Bought second pair. Trendy, versatile, very comfortable. I have wide foot and converse feels tight. Stretch in these gives enough room for comfort while not slipping off foot or anything. I got tan and red colors both colors are very pretty. My most worn shoes in leisure time definitely recommend.

I am obsessed with Blowfish shoes. I probably have about 10-15 pairs! I love how comfortable they are and that they can go casually with short, capris or jeans. I love the soft soles and you can either wear them with our without socks. The new patterns they so cute and I can't stop purchasing more! The fit is great, I have a slightly wider foot than most people I feel like but these fit just perfect!

This is my third pair of blowfish sneakers. I love the fit, I love the style, and I always get compliments on them. I do a lot of walking and although they don’t have a lot of arch support, they are very comfortable.

Cute shoes! I ordered size 8, my regular size, and they are slightly snug. I know they will stretch out with wear. There are inside seams which may cause irritation...too soon to tell. The shoes will be good for social and casual situations, but I’m not sure they’re suited for long-term walking. I had to use a shoe horn to get them on, due to no give between side laces and tongue, which are sewn down together.

These are fun to wear, but I was worried at first. They took a good two weeks to break in, but now they are perfect with or without socks.

Super cute kicks!!! Sadly had to send them back because they felt a half size too small. Normally I wear 9.5. I got the 9.5 and could barely get them on my foot.
The pink shoes are SUPER CUTE. I tried to order a size 10 to replace the 9.5 that I sent back, but the pink 10s were out of stock.
I ended up getting the grey in size 10 and they fit great! Very happy with the grey but wished I could have got the pink replacement in 10.

Surprisingly comfortable! They *are* very flat, but they felt great still? They do NOT have great traction, so keep that in mind. But for the every day shoe, they are great. Plenty of room and weren't stiff.
