So-so. Did not quite work for my narrow foot. Felt pretty comfortable, but looked clunky on my feet and my feet kind of slid around in them. The part that goes over the top of the foot (near the toes) is a pretty wide/big piece of patent leather not the most complementary look when paired with chunky cork heel. Although comfy, the look didn't justify the price. Will keep trying.

Very comfortable! Tons of compliments. I want to buy them all so no one else will have them! It says that it is a patent leather shoe...yes, but it is so soft and the color is duller than a typical patent leather shoe...which makes them even more desirable.

They don't feel like heels.
These shoes are very very comfortable. I wear MBT's almost every day and I hate to be uncomfortable. This shoe is soft and supportive. My only complaint is the color. I rarely wear black so I bought the other color. It is not quite blue, not quite green... (really like an opal) pretty but not the most functional color for me. If they were available in ANY OTHER color I would buy another pair.

These sandals are beautiful, nice height heel, and I think they may have been very comfortable had they fit. Unfortunately, I went ahead and ordered a half size smaller than usual and, you guessed it, they are too small. However, I won't be ordering the next size up because I pronate. And even in the just barely too small shoe, my foot was not stable enough and my wide forefoot slid out of balance from my narrow heel. The more I walked, the more diagonal they fit and off center felt. Weird. But, they are super cute and if you have a relatively normal foot, you'll likely dig 'em.

I give up on Born. Once again disappointed by a pair of Borns. This is the last time I will bother. The shoe is way too big but I can't size down because then it will be too small. This happened to me in two other pairs of Borns, which I convinced myself to keep and wear outside and then couldn't return. Not falling for it this time! These are going back. Also, the arch support in this shoe is poor. The bottom of my foot doesn't rest on the shoe. Not good for a "comfort" shoe. Wake up Born: you need to make half sizes!

Very nice shoes!
I ordered my Born shoes 1 day before my vacation and Zappos sent them to me the same day! It was amazing! These shoes are very comfortable and look great in color Celeste. Usually I wear size 6 1/2, but I ordered size 6 because they come large.

...although it was a little wide for me. Keep that in mind if your feet are narrow!

These shoes are fantastic. They look great, feel great. I typically don't like to spend over this much for a pair of shoes, but took the chance. Well worth it.

The perfect sandal -
I LOVE this shoe! I bought the teal first. I knew they would be comfortable despite the high heel because they're Born, but they're also beautiful and sexy, so buying them in black was a no-brainer.

Over the top -
This shoe is so comfortable and looks even better. It's a little big, could actually go down to a 7.5. I bought it in the teal and will wear it with everything all summer.

THEY FLY OFF YOUR FEET!!!
Got thes for my daughter (she's 30) before a six month trip to Costa Rica. She LOVED them! After wearing them on her trip she found they would fall off her feet or "fly" forward as she was taking a step. Her regular size is 10-1/2 and I got her a 10...still too big.

These run big -
I can't walk in these shoes comfortably because they fall off due to the large size. I wear a 7 in all other Born shoes but not this one. Love the look and if they weren't $75 + I would reorder in a smaller size. They felt ok when I first tried on but later grew uncomfortable flopping off my foot all the time.

Not the best sandals to walk in...
I like the look of this shoe a lot, but it's not very comfortable to walk in. Although there's a lot of cushioning, which is great, the straps are positioned in a way where the shoe continues to slip off when I'm walking. Maybe the straps just stretched too much, but I've only worn the shoes about five times.

I had to return these sandals, because the size 6 was too large. Other Born size 6 have fit in the past.

Comfortable and cute -
I wanted a comfortable sandal that would be somewhat fashionable yet have maximum foot exposure. The color of this sandal is great - perfectly matches a dark tan. The construction is typical Born - superb and made to last. I anticipate wearing this shoe at least 3-7 years. When they first arrived I was so excited because they were so cute, and they look fabulous with capris, shorts, skirts, anything - dressier than you'd expect but also casual. The only downside (could be a plus for you) is that they are basically flat - maybe a quarter-inch lift. So they don't necessarily flatter the leg. At first I wore them on a 2 mile walk and got blisters on my toes, but after that they've been completely fine. Not for hiking, but can't get better cushioning and comfort than this for a day at work, picnic, etc.. I'm happy. Didn't think they'd be as comfortable as they are. My first Born (ha ha) and definitely not my last! Oh - I usually wear a 6.5-7, but in this shoe I take a 6, and my foot is medium-medium wide.

I really enjoy them. They took some breaking in, but now are one of the most comfortable pairs of shoes I own.

Love the flower on the bottom -
These are especially cute in "oyster white," which unfortunately was sold out in my size so I went with the "honey". They run wide, however, so I'm not sure how comfortable they will be for walking long distances; they may slide around too much and require dragging, which can be very tiring. Tiresome, too...

Wanted 'white' and got 'ecru'
The shoes were very soft and comfy and I loved the style but I wanted true "white" sandals. The Born Blossom's "white" is more of an "off-white" or "ecru" so buyer beware if you are wanting a true white sandal. I would have loved them had they been the color described.

I am a "Born" groupie; however, this shoe has very stiff straps and my feet do not feel secure in them. Nearly impossible to do any amount of walking while wearing them. Very disappointing and I wish I would have returned them after my purchase.

Unhappy purchase -
I purchased a pair of these sandals and they lasted about 3 months before the straps broke. They stretched out in the first 2 weeks of wearing them. I took them to the store where I purchased them from and was told I was out of luck with any type of refund. Truley not pleased with the performance of the sandals... nothing.

Cute but Scratchy -
These sandals are adorable but very tough to break in - the straps feel like twine. No kidding! They do get more comfortable with time, but not a good pair for a long day of walking the first time out.

Great comfy sandal!
I was a little hesitant about buying this style because of the straps. Generally, due to foot problems, I prefer a thong sandal. How wrong I was! These were every bit as comfortable as my Born clogs from the moment I put them on. I want a pair in every color. :-)

LOVE! I didnt think I would like these, but I wear these everyday! No slidding or slipping. Dressier than I thought too! Buy a half size smaller than you need.

Strappy sandals -
I thought these would be great/comfie sandals for a vacation trip. I was wrong. The straps are very, very uncomfortable. Should have gone with another born style...orchid. Don't buy these if straps bother you.

Another winner from Born!
This is a great shoe. Born' are so comfortable from the first wear. I own 2 other pairs and use to wear Clark's exclusively, but am now a Born shoe lover. This style has a little strap problem, I think a little too close to the front, but they are so cute that I just have to keep them!
