Love these shoes! So cute and stylish and dress up a casual outfit nicely, very summery. First week of wearing they feel tight and may give you blisters, need to break them in and stretch the leather out a little. Do not return if at first they look too small, they will stretch!

I gave the shoes 5 stars only because I would have loved them but took a chance on the Medium width thinking it may work out but sorry it didn't. I have a bunion on right foot and liked shoes since they could cover the bunion and also liked the post between toes to keep shoes from flopping around. I wish they offered a wide width.

Nice slide sandals, a little hard so far... but I do like the style... just waiting for the leather to give out some.

These are super cute and exactly what I was looking for style wise. The leather however is pretty stiff and has given me blisters every time I’ve worn them so far. Desperately hoping the leather will soften up because I can’t wear bandaids and limp around every time I wear these!

These are so cute on. They seem strong and well made. Someone please tell me they get more comfortable after you wear them for a while. The part of the shoe that goes between my toes is painful when I walk. Not too bad but I feel like I will get blisters if I walk a lot in them. The leather feels really stiff. I'm hoping it will stretch a bit with wear and be more comfortable. They are cute enough to keep and risk it

A friend of mine had these shoes, and I loved the look of a slide, but with the toe post to keep your foot in place. I ordered my "normal" size of 7.5, but they were just a tad too short in the front and my big toe spilled over the edge of the shoe. I liked them so much I'm returning and ordering a size 8.

The sandal looks great, but they are way too stiff for comfort. And the discomfort hits you on your first step; so there is no telling what walking in them will feel like.

I purchased 1/2 size larger based on Nordstrom's recommendations for the same product. If I had purchased my usual size, the fit would have been 1/2 size too small.

I usually wear a size 8.5, but had to get a 10 to fit in these sandals. They are really cute! And semi comfortable once I went up a decent amount in size.

I was worried about these being too small in a 6.5 from the reviews (I go between 6.5 and 7) but they work just fine, especially since they’ll stretch out a bit. I would go with the 7 in the future. I was also worried about how much they would hurt, but I wore them in the house at first and I haven’t had a comfort problem with them since then. They are so cute, stylish and fun to wear out and about during the summer.

I agree that the sandal was a half size too small, I ordered a half size up and it was fine. Yes, the leather is stiff, but for the price the slide is
very attractive and a good value. Don't plan on a long hike, but you will look great lounging on the patio.

Size and fit was true to size. They are definitely very stiff. Gave me blisters the first time I wore them. I did see a hack online to get the top portion wet, and then wear them as they dry. After that they conformed to my feet and I wear the 3-4 times a week. Now they are my go-to sandal. If you don’t want wait to break them in, then they aren’t for you. Otherwise super cute

The style is cute, but they are very uncomfortable. Hard leather and the toe strap is stiff and makes it hard to walk. I typically wear and 8.5/9 and had to size up to a 9.5. Back they go.

Basic and clean lines, but leather is much too stiff to be comfortable.

I have average sized feet and it was so narrow I couldn't even squish my foot back in. Like the look but so stiff and uncomfortable.

They placement of the front leather strap piece is too far up close to toes & makes its hard to walk in. If they had of moved it back a little it would have been more comfortable & easier to walk in. Sadly they are going back.

I know leather is suppose to stretch out but I can’t imagine these ever will. They are so stiff, the footbed is rock hard, and way too narrow that I can’t wiggle my toes when they’re on.
