Good quality, pretty much what I expected from the brand. The toe shape is wider looking than I expected, but for casual wear they are comfortable. Like the velcro strap adjustment over the instep. The edge stitching on the straps is a little rough on the inside. I have other Josef Seibels that I wear at least a few times a week.

These shoes are even better looking in person than in the photo and if that's possible, because they're pretty darned cute in the photo. I ordered a pair in black and in capri, but in trying them on I was reminded of why, although I own several pair of Josef Seibel shoes and none of them is a summer style. That's because my left foot is a full half size shorter than my right, and socks help compensate for the too large left foot size in fall/winter shoes. But in summer sandal type shoes, no such compensation is possible. While some manufacturer's offerings of half sizes put an 8 1/2 on both feet for summer styles, Seibel's whole sizing makes the Euro 39 too small and the 40 too big in summer designs. Although the 40 works great for oxfords. But since you're likely not to have such a dilemma and order these shoes! So lightweight, so comfortable in fit, so easy on and off, so versatile in design. Pretty decent support too, as sandals go. Not to mention so darned cute. I grieve that I need to return them. :-(

This shoe is very comfortable, and is between a sandal and a closed shoe, so can be worn in several seasons. The leather is soft and pliable. The only problem I had was that the x stitches on the very top front of the shoe project downward - and if your foot requires a deeper toe box, may rub on the top of the toes. Otherwise, they didn't even have to be broken in. So comfortable.

I just returned for Florida and wore these shoes every day. They were comfortable from the start. I have rather thin feet so need shoes that hug. These fit well and I am pleased.

I love Josef Seibel shoes. I've been wearing them for years, and was excited to see this new style for summer. The best thing about this brand, at least for me, is there is no "break-in" period. None. Just put them on and wear them. They feel just like an old friend on your feet - comfortable and nice to have around. And, thanks Zappos, for upgrading my shipping!

This shoe didn't have as much arch support as some other Josef Siebel shoes which I have. Returned.

It takes something really special to get me to write a review and these shoes are exactly that. I adore them. They are comfortable right out of the box, and feel amazing on my feet. I live in Florida and seek summer styles that look good and are cool - but not sandals. These shoes are like having little air conditioners on your feet. I'm ordering another pair today. Their only drawback is that they are thin-soled and not very cushioned, but this is a reasonable trade-off for the way they feel otherwise.

These shoes are so attractive, lightweight and comfortable! Love the color for summer! Have that already broken-in feel!

Cute shoe but the back of the shoe dug into my ankle when I walked so I returned it. If not for this I would have kept the shoe. It was very comfortable and exactly what I was looking for a summer trip to Asia.

Very nice looking, felt good except that they are too high on the sides. I can't wear them, unfortunately.

Worth every penny. These shoes have a wider toe box to allow for and hide my bunions but a more narrow heel. The velcro strap is easy to adjust when my feet swell. First day I wore these shoes I was on my feet for 10 hours straight and my feet never hurt!

Not as supportive as all my other Joseph Seibel shoes. Not enough padding either so my feet get tired standing. Lightweight.

Great in-between shoes for those cooler spring/summer days. Or when you just don't want your whole foot showing!

This shoe is very high on the back side and cuts into the ankle. I have highset ankles and was very surprised that this would be a problem. Other than this uncomfortable design the shoe is nice.

I've only worn them once so far, but they felt great. I also have a pair of Josef Seibel loafers that I have worn for probably 3 years now, every non-work day from about October through May. They have yet to wear out and are super comfortable, too.

Very comfortable and lightweight shoe; versatile enough to go with shorts, jeans and skirts equally well. I love the shape of the toe box, very comfy for someone with bunions. I'm taking them on a trip to Jerusalem where we will be doing a lot of walking.

Very comfortable right out of the box. They fit perfectly and look just different enough to catch shoe-lovers eyes everywhere!

I enjoy this shoe, cute and comfortable. I wish it had a little more arch support.
