    I wanted to love these - I like the look of the shoe, but the sole was kind of weird. It just felt odd. I did not want to risk a problem with a shoe that was over $170. The leather work however is beautiful.

    CONFUSED - I am still deciding whether I am keeping this shoe. I am very hard to fit and so many designers do not make the shoes true to size. This shoe is just right in length. The reason I'm confused is that the top is stretched over the sandal very tightly. Perhaps because the leather will stretch. I have worn them in the house to see if I can get comfortable in them. They are better than when I first got them, but I don't know if they will be comfortable if I had them on for several hours. They are growing on me though and they are the type of sandal that goes with allot like skirts, shorts, jeans, etc... For a plain sandal they're chic.

    You'll be glad you did! I'm on my second pair. I fully intend to order a third soon. They've changed the style just a bit since my first pair (3-4 years ago??), but I'm OK with that since they fit a flexible foot belonging to a "mature" woman. Lots of people ask where I got them. At first I kept it a secret! CAVEAT: Don't wear them in totally underwater situations...the "innards" aren't made for deep puddles. I live in Seattle, so it's not like you can't wear them when it's damp outside! Just treat them nicely...they're worth it. You wouldn't wear your Rabotins for boat shoes, either!

    Due to high arches, many sandals aren't comfortable. I comfortably wore these all day the first time and love the flax seed soul as it molds to my foot without foot fatigue. The leather across the vamp does stretch so if it's a little tight to begin with, be patient. Also it slaps the floor at bit when I walk but I'll exchange that for the comfort. I may even buy another pair.

    Add This Brand to My Favorites
    Gentle Souls by Kenneth Cole has created a natural way to combine fashion, comfort and care for your feet. This revolutionary patent-pending technology uses the finest natural materials for organic comfort in their shoes and sandals.

    Deerskin lining- Gentle Souls´ shoes uses supple and breathable deerskin-lined insoles providing softness and comfort while conforming to the shape of your foot. It is durable and will not stretch or crack when wet. Deerskin is normally found on gloves, jackets or shoe uppers. The deerskin-lined insole is unique to Gentle Souls shoes and sandals!

    Flaxseed Memory Pillows- Flaxseed pillows are embedded in the footbed of Gentle Souls shoes to mold to the shape of your foot and provide cushioned support. The flaxseed ¨memory pillows¨ are somewhat similar to beanbags as they redistribute and adjust to the shape of your foot with every step.

    Padding- Under the deerskin lining there is a memory foam developed by NASA; Poron®. This foam does not break down and maintains its shape over time.

    Granulated Cork- This layer located under the Poron® helps with shock absorption when walking on hard surfaces.

    Rubberized Outsole- Sometimes fused with leather, rubberized outsoles are flexible and great for traction on hard surfaces.

    This is one of those I wanted to love, but the right sandal felt a bit large and neither seemed to stay on my foot. I walked only from my chair to the mirror and had to sort of shuffle just to keep them on. They do look great (I bought the silver), but I am returning them because I can tell they'll just never work for me. (Insert sad-face emoticon here.)

    Love my Gentle Souls! I first tried these shoes on in SF at the beginning of the summer. They did not have the color I wanted so as soon as we arrived at our cabin I was on Zappos website and of course they had just what I wanted. I wish they weren't quite so expensive but my feet don't seem to mind...they love the way they fit! I have kind of a wide foot and these fit me perfectly and so, so comfortable!

    These are dream boots! They are made of a very high quality, soft leather, and shape the feet very nicely. On top of that, they are high fashion and best of all, COMFORTABLE!!! I think I need both colors!

    These sandals are classic yet fashionable. The leather is buttery soft; the fit, oh so comfy. I think I should have at least 2 other colors besides mahogany. Zappos has THE best service! Ordered yesterday; arrived today! I really appreciate the reviews because that helps me decide on buying.

    Mahogany is a soft Copper - Somewhat reluctantly, I ordered these in mahogany because it was the only color left in my size but I loved the look of the sandal. Expecting a reddish-brown leather, I was delighted to receive what I would describe as a soft, metallic copper color. Unfortunately, I must return them as they are slightly wide for my foot (which, while a B, runs a tad on the narrow side). I still give them top marks because they're great for some lucky woman!

    It's me, not the shoe. A bunion on my left foot makes it a little harder to slip this shoe on comfortably. I love the softness of the leather in look and feel. I have 3 pairs of Gentle Souls. The others fit perfectly at once and this is already stretching out for me.

    Nice looking shoe, and comfortable too -- but too wide. The shoe flops on my foot. I'm sorry to say, I'll be sending these back. If there were a half size smaller, I'd try ordering down.

    Although the shlook likes like a quality made product, I don't find them to be. The one shoe is much wider than the other and the upper leather rubs my feet. I have never had a problem with one shoe of a pair not fitting my foot. That is definitely the case with these. I'm very disappointed with this brand.

    I followed the advice in prior reviews for this sandal and ordered 1/2 size smaller than I would normally wear. These were still too wide and slightly too long. I returned that pair for a pair 1 whole size smaller than normal. They fit perfectly. I do have a somewhat narrow foot. These sandals do NOT run true to size.
