I wear extra wide width, and SAS shoes always fit very well. They are comfortable, and the leather is soft. The only thing I really don't like is the strap which runs vertically down the front of the sandal does not connect to the strap at the bottom (across the toe area) of the shoe, and this looks kind of strange to me. I would much prefer it connected, or at least was a little longer so it would look attached. Other than that, they are very comfortable and more stylish than most offerings by SAS. I love the workmanship and the quality and just wish SAS would offer more choices which do not look like "old lady shoes".

Unable to edit previous review to add pic and update final decision. Decided to keep these despite the velcro because they’re just too great to send back. They are a dream to wear, and having a pair of cute yet comfortable shoes for my duck flapper feet is worth every penny! Zappos rocks!!!!!!

SAS shoes can be hit or miss; either frumpy and oldladyish or fairly stylish. I was pleasantly surprised by this sandal after trying the seaside slide (which was okay style-wise, but not comfortable!). This sandal was comfortable and style(ish), quite a feat considering my large, wide feet! I am a big fan of the pampa, and these are based on that, but with the comfier footbed of the sorrento (the sorrento are comfy but I look like I have Fred Flintstone feet. Surprisingly, this is not so with the aria). They fit the same as the rest of the SAS sandals, I was able to fit into a half size smaller than usual, with only a wide versus a ww. I ordered the white and again was happy that my feet did not look huge as is usually the case with a white shoe. It is nice that the first two “buckles” are actually velcro, hopefully they will continue to hold strong with wear, because my initial thought of “I have to buckle these every time I wear them?” would have meant an instant ‘no’. Yes, they are expensive, but I feel like I could walk all day in them and all those straps make them seem more stable than regular sandals. I also like the SAS clover and laguna (for casual wear) and the allegro (for a dressier look).

I bought these in black and white. I returned the white ones because I thought they looked rather orthopedic. The black ones however are another story. These sandals are very cute, super comfortable and fit perfectly. I wear a 9 1/2 and my foot is narrow. The two top straps are velcro so you can control how tight the straps are. The sandals are so comfortable its like walking on clouds. These are my favorite sandals now. You will love them.

I accidentally ordered a wide size 9, probably because it was the only size 9 available but I'm glad I did, it fits perfect. I wear a size 9 in most comfort brands but not in wide, but I've never worn SAS before, these don't fit like a wide. The leather is soft like butter and the sole has support but is also like walking on a cloud. These are my new favorite sandal! Very stylish and will go with jeans or a dress.

First I bought them in black. They literally are like walking on air. So incredibly comfortable that I thought I should buy another pair. So I went online and saw them in tan and also in white and bought both of those colors as well. I may never need another type of sandal again. These are my all-time favorites.

I purchased 4 pairs for all the girls in our family in memory of their grandmother on her birthday. We always laughed that she loved here SAS shoes, so I texted them that I was sending them some shoes. They were so worried until they received them, thinking they were getting the old style. Now two more generations love SAS shoes, thanks for letting us understand why she loved hers so much!!!

Shoe was very cute and had pretty good cushioned sole. Arch support could have been a bit better for the price. My foot did not feel stable with the straps only supported by velcro and took forever to decide to return them but since I was so hesitant about the support and have twisted my ankle recently - I finally let go of this cute shoe and decided I needed to return.

Perfect but think I should have ordered the soft gold to wear with white. I’m about to do that and return these. Wonderful, very cute, very comfy shoe! Thank you SAS for chick shoes!

I absolutely love this shoe. I bought the white pair last year and regretted not buying the black. So the black and brown became available so I purchased both and love them too!

These shoes were very comfortable right out of the box. I am a teacher, and I wore the shoes the first day I received them. My feet were smiling and thanking me. I went up a half size larger than my normal size. The shoes look like gladiator sandals and every strap was adjustable. The only downside was the shoes were expensive, but my feet said they were worth it.

I bought the black ones and they are so adorable AND comfortable that I quickly ordered them in brown, too. They are the most comfortable sandals I have ever owned, fit perfectly and are easily adjustable with velcro straps and look cute enough to wear with a dress. What a find!!!!

Sandal runs 1/2 size large and width is true to size at a WW. Very comfortable and cute with dresses or cropped pants. Loved it, but I'd rather have it in Black Bison (with black soles rather than white). Zappos either doesn't carry that one or it has sold out.
I'd also recommend:
Finn Comfort, Munro for wide feet

Currently my MOST favourite sandal! Wore almost everyday walking around Italy and England, my feet were very happy, no issues whatsoever. Absolutely worth the money!

I wish I lived in Houston so I could walk into the store on Post Oak Road in Houston. I bought my first SAS shoes there and my feet have been happy ever since! The Aria Gladiator Sandal is the most comfortable shoe and it is stylish (not really my thing but get lots of compliments whenever I wear them). I keep buying them every summer especially when there is a new color. Cannot go wrong with this shoe!!!!

Purchased the hazel tan 2 years ago, and wore them to bits , walking at least 2 miles daily in Europe&Israel, and my feet were so grateful! This time I bought the pale gold, and prefer the less bulky look of the light colored sole. I have problem feet; bunions, callous and need arch support, and these are comfortable, and the straps help camouflage my less than attractive feet. I take my typical size, 8.5. How about a almond/nude color leather on this light sole, please. That would be awesome!

OMG! I saw these on TikTok. @ohiofootdocs recommended them as cute, stylish, and good for your feet. As a 66 yo girl, I never thought I'd wear SAS but these sandals just called to me. I'm only 5'3" so they aren't exactly lengthening. However, I wore them for an all day urban outing to the Oakland Museum, and then walking to a restaurant. I logged 3 hours standing on my feet, and a total of 4 miles with absolutely no plantar fasciitis pain. I wear them all the time! Love, love, love my glittery gold gladiators!

I love SAS shoes, and I wanted to keep these beautiful sandals. But I can't wear sandals that have something between the toes. I was hoping I could wear these, but I don't think they will work for me. Beautiful sandals, however.
