True to size . Extremely comfortable , with soft , non - binding straps . Could be worn all day . If you had to run from Godzilla , these are the sandals you'd want to wear .

I first purchased these sandals to wear on my honeymoon 1.5 years ago. I wanted something I could wear all day while still looking stylish. Fast-forward to yesterday. I'm a wedding videographer and decided to wear these- ALL DAY. Usually, my feet are absolutely killing me by the end of a long day of shooting video. But yesterday, I was fine. These sandals BEAT tennis shoes (for me) in the comfort endurance category. I'm still in shock they did so well. Haha. Not only that, but they are still in perfect condition after being my primary go-to sandal for so long. Thank you, Sorel, for being the best of the best!

I actually have 2 pairs! have narrow feet and it’s a challenge to find cute sandals that fit securely. These are perfect. They’re comfortable and offer good support.

I love these shoes. They look great and are comfortable. I returned them since there was no arch support.

I have narrow feet where sandal straps are usually loose. Not these. The Ella II is super comfortable and hugs my ankles without creating blisters. If you're looking for an attractive, comfortable sandal, these are it. Buying another pair.

After wearing for more than a half hour these shoes really hurt in the heel. My best friend had experienced the same thing but I didn’t believe her. I covered the inside heel with more skin and that seems to have fixed the issue but please be aware.

Be specific about your likes and dislikes. How was the fit and size? What does the material feel like? How awesome (or not) do you feel wearing them?

Cute sandals. I have narrow feet and not much of an arch and these are working great. I have worn them all day for several days and my feet don't hurt. The cushioning is OKay, not as soft as some other brands though. The elastic at the ankles fit very snug (I have fairly small ankles) and the bridge over the toes fits without gaping, which is often a problem for me. I've worn them for hours at a time right out of the box and haven't had any issues with rubbing or blisters. They are a nice price and I am happy with the purchase. I'm usually a 7.5 or 8. I ordered the 7.5 at first and my toes were just RIGHT at the edge, so I got an eight and they are perfect!

Like a few of the other reviewers, I agree that the ankle straps are fairly tight. Not too tight that I'd return though. I'd expect that they will become loose from wear, so maybe it's good they are on the tighter side. The footbed has a thin layer of cushion which was unexpected, and not typical of a sandal… which makes it more comfortable. The toebox strap, IMO accommodates a wider foot than most shoes, but not wide enough for my hobbit feet. Luckily I have a shoe stretcher, and after a few days of that, these were wearable. That strap is also very soft, although I still needed to prime my foot against blisters on my big toe though. The style is super cute and the color is perfect… a really soft dusty rose. --- Age 44, Weight 115

The sandals are very cute but the straps are very tight. I’m sure they stretch out more eventually, but on first time wearing them, my feet had deep strap lines all over.

these are really cute! I love the Ella II brown across the toes and olive green at the heel w striped ankle straps. they go with many outfits. much more interesting than plain colors. adorable with dresses and shorts. very flattering to the ankle. not the most comfortable shoe in the world and would be tight on some ankles. no arch support. I appreciate the real leather on the foot bed especially. hoping it keeps the stink down. these will likely get more comfortable with time as they slightly bend to fit the foot with wear.

The Sorel Ella II sandal fits perfectly. I am a solid 8M and that is the size I purchased. It is very comfortable and the sole is cushioned. I most likely won't be wearing them to walk long distances, so I'm not sure how much arch support the sandal will provide for that activity, but, for wearing them shopping or to a restaurant they are great. I purchased the Omega Taupe which will go with everything. I am seriously considering purchasing the Crushed Blue color as well. It is such a pretty summer color.

I wanted to like these sandals - the style is attractive and the footbed flexible, but the strap across the toes was very tight and the strap over the ankle also very tight - unfortunately these will have to go back.

Love these! A friend has them in black & white but I wanted a softer color. I will definitely consider getting them in another color. There is one spot that’s been rubbing the base of my big toe, but easily solved with a bandage until I break them in. They work with skirts, cropped pants, and shorts.

I have SUPER narrow feet and skinny ankles and I find these sandals so comfy! Plus they look great with everything - shorts, jeans, dresses… I have received multiple compliments! Not sure how great they’d be for anyone with broader ankles though as the straps are pretty tight (but comfortable) on me.

These sandals look better than the picture on Zappos online. They’re truly comfortable and you can dress them up or down with jeans, black dress pants, a skirt or even a dress. They’re gorgeous sandals. I love them. These are my first pair of sorels too ? they run true to size and provide medium arch support.

All black. Even the bottoms. No zipper so you’ll need to like stretchy straps

These sandals are really stylish and feel comfortable at first, but after a few minutes I can’t wait to take them off. The straps are so tight they cut off your circulation. They also hold your foot so tight to the sole that it makes your feet sweat.

My teen daughter picked these out to wear with a dress, since she hates anything with a heel or wedge and requires comfort at all times. These fit the bill. Super comfortable and look nice. Originally ordered a 7 and had to size down to a 6.5.

Very comfortable so far. Will definitely keep them. Good enough support , elastic wasn’t too tight (my ankles aren’t the beautiful kind) my feet are more narrow but didn’t feel too loose. Color is nice.

Great for skinny ankles like me. The straps are probably tight for “fuller feet and ankles.” I could use more arch support but it is good for just walking around and small errands around town.
