Just like all other Born sandals these are very well made, super comfortable right out of the box, and cute! They will be great with shorts and capris this summer.

These work for me. They are genuine earthy sandals like the ones I wore with bell bottoms in the '60s. They are made from great craftsmanship, supple with tooled leather soles. Firm cushioning in the footbed gives slight support for walking, although not nearly as much as sport comfort shoes. The heel closure is great. They run slightly large, so I got one size smaller and they fit.

Borns tend to run small. This shoe is cute, but not all that comfortable. I need to send it back. I love Zappos, though!

These are perhaps the best sandals I've ever owned! They look good with skirts, shorts or jeans. They are also really comfortable. The velcro allows you to adjust them. I have a wide foot, so I sized up, as recommended. They are perfect. I usually look for shoe sales, but when you find the perfect shoe, it's worth paying full price!

OMG, they are the most comfortable and cute casual sandals. I can wear them with crops, capris, and even a casual little skirt. I only wish they came in white, too!!!

These shoes are fantastic and stand up to the Born reputation! Very comfortable and easy to wear the first time... no real need for "breaking in." Only thing to consider is that if you have a narrow foot, the strap on the back could be a bit loose. I adjusted it to work for me, but it's not a "super snug" fit. Still comfy though, and definitely a good purchase.

I love these sandals! They took some breaking in as the toe thong was stiff at first, but well worth the effort! They are comfortable and beautiful and have become a favorite.

Despite all the good reviews I found these shoes to be awful. I am assuming I received a defective pair but they stretched out after a couple of wearings and would not keep my heel in place. I wear born a lot but could find better quality at target where this style is concerned.

Very nice, soft leather, nice arch support, but seems to run a bit large. Footbed too long and heel strap would not stay up. Ordered a size 8 and I will re-order in a 7. Really want to give these 5 stars!

I love Born shoes, boots and sandals, but these do not have Born quality leather nor does the leather look like what is in the pictures, a natural grain leather. The ones I received looks like plastic coated leather and nothing like the picture. I hope I just got a bad pair and that Born is not changing their leather quality. Not sure if I am going to reorder to see I just got a bad pair. The leather reminds me of a cheap plastic coated leather couch.

Ran small and narrow. Velcro is only adjustable if you want to make the shoe longer which doesn't make sense unless you want to have your toe or heel hanging over the edge. Back they go.

These are uncomfortable by the toe and I tried a second pair hoping it would be different but it was the same. Too bad, these are cute!
