I love the style of this shoe. I have worn them around the house for several days, and the leather seems to be stretching, therefore the shoe is really loose on me now. It makes me sad to return them, but my feet are narrow and they feel like they will slip out of the front of the shoe.

Lots to like, but my feet do slip around a tiny bit in them. I can't adjust the strap to stop this. Also, I feel like my little toe will poke thru unexpectedly sometime.

I wear a 7.5 and have a narrow foot. I need to size down with Born sandals because of the width. Unfortunately these are too wide. There is a buckle, but I can't get it buckled tight enough to prevent my foot from sliding around. Otherwise it is a really nice sandal. Had to return.

Super cute and very soft leather. Unfortunately it runs wide. My foot was slipping around even after tightening the straps ( and I don't have a narrow foot). So disappointed because it was exactly what I was looking for.

I really wanted to like them but unfortunately the straps are a very thin material and when I walk my feet slip off the shoe inward. I have a semi wide foot so I was surprised they were so loose. I am returning them. If the leather had structure to them, I think they could have worked. Bummer.

I wish this came in half sizes. Super soft & comfortable but a bit big.

Cute but too wide. Foot slipped around. Nice leather but it will stretch even more. Maybe good for someone who needs a wide width.

These are really cute but unfortunately the leather straps are so weak and thin that the shoe does not hold the foot. My feet immediately slid out of the shoe to the side and there is not any way to fix it with the straps. Returned.

I'm a 6.5 but they don't have half sizes. I went with a 7 which is a little too big (as expected) but I think a 6 would have been too small. My feet move around in the sandals but you can tighten the top strap which helps. Hopefully the leather doesn't stretch too much. No hot spots and the soles are cushioned which is nice.

Size is good lengthwise as I find it to be with born but I always have to tighten the strap to the tightest on all their sandals. I think they think my ankles are bigger than they are. Very comfortable which is why I like the brand.

A little too gold for me. Could have been distressed for a little bit more toned down of a look. Still cute.

I would have kept these because I loved them, but the strap didn’t even make it around my ankle! So sad.

One of the best Born sandals ever! I got them in all three of the available colors. These fit out of the box with zero problems and are worn all day without being noticed (as comfortable shoes should be). Feels like having nothing on your feet. Just the right amount of straps for not being too hot for summer. Cool, light, breezy, soft, and stay on your foot. They go nicely with dresses as well as shorts. Born, please make them in a silver leather too! You got the gold, why not silver?

Love these sandals. Leather feels like butter, soo cozy. My feet are wider and they do loosen with wear like the other reviews say, if you have narrow feet I’d pass

Cute sandals, but the toe strap especially on the right sandal was too tight for my toes. I did not find them too wide (like the other reviews), I have wider feet but mostly buy narrow sized shoes. These were comfortably wide without being too wide. It really came down to the toe strap. So I returned them.

My feet are wide across the front, and the front strap, especially on the right shoe, is too tight. Otherwise the comfort and fit are good.

Want to love them for the look but doesn’t fit properly. They shift around when walking. Maybe my left foot is little too narrow for the design thro usually M shoes fit me well.
