Normally I have a really hard time finding shoes that are comfortable because my feet are pretty wide. I was pleasantly surprised by how comfortable these shoes are. These felt true to size. The way the shoe is constructed, you won't feel like you have to bend your knees to walk in them.

Fabulous - They are so gorgeous; I wish they had the other colors in my size! Comfy, sexy, different --- love'em!

Love 'em! I wasn't sure about these when I ordered them, but I was very pleasantly surprised. I thought the toe may be too elongated, but in person they look like a nice hybrid between a pointed and rounded toe. And they don't make your feet look bigger. Overall, they're gorgeous! They look very high quality and durable. They're quite comfortable and the heel is sturdy so they'll be good for longer days on your feet. I did add a cushion for the ball of my foot and this makes the fit perfect. I would have gotten them in 3 colors if they still had my size!

My instep is really hard to fit, and this shoe does not fit me well but it is so good looking and different I kept it. I'll wear it to church and when I won't be doing a lot of walking. If it fit my foot well I'd have ordered a couple more colors, I got the green. If you like a strong statement in a shoe with a pop of color, you'll love this shoe.

I love this shoe almost as much as I love Zappos! For a higher shoe they are very comfortable and have a dressy edge to them. I bought them in cork and they go with everything! Wear them with a skirt, jeans or dress pants. I bought them in my normal size and they are perfect. I just tightened the buckle one notch and I'm ready to dance, work or shop. Look great for just about anything. They take on a Western look when worn with jeans. Really cute, buy 'em and stand tall!

I love these sandals. The cork color doesn't make your feet stand out or steal from you outfit. They look gorgeous on and off, such a lovely shoe, and so comfortable for a higher heel. They are exactly what I wanted and more! Thank you Zappos!

I'd have to disagree with the 63% of reviewers who say this shoe runs big. For me the shoe ran a half size smaller than marked. I'm a size 4.5 (and on the wide side). I ordered this shoe in a 5 and it fit very beautifully. No extra length in the footbed and not at all tight, two problems I encounter all the time with shoes labeled size 5. As for comfort, I was pleasantly surprised that I lasted an entire day of teaching (cement floor, no carpeting) without switching to the backup pair I brought to work just in case. Great for standing, less comfortable for walking around campus. I hope this helps.

Great sandals. Very comfortable despite high heels; cushion of these wedged sandals is great. I can walk for hours in the shopping mall without having foot pain. The material is unbelievably light and appears to be in high quality range. The look is also awesome and different from other brands; receiving lot of compliments. I actually bought 3 more pairs of Onex brand in different styles. One pair has high heel, but not wedged and is not as comfortable as the wedged ones though.

When I need a certain pair of shoes in a hurry, I order from Zappos! Most times they will arrive the next day or at the latest, the second day. I love their service and I love not having to go to the mall!

This is a great shoe. Not only is it comfortable, it's stylish as well. They don't come in half sizes so size up...

So cute and comfy! I ordered this sandal in black, which has silver studs and buckle. Really cute! This sandal can be dressy enough for a wedding or you can wear them with jeans. I like the Magical better than the Janelle (similar style) because it isn't as sparkly, which makes it more wearable for me. It is very comfortable, despite my bunion. The wedge style makes you appear to be wearing high heels, but due to the wedge, the actual rise from ball of the foot to heel is not that much, making it very comfortable--even for people like me who seldom wear a higher heel. Definitely order a full size larger than usual.

Onex NEVER fails to deliver!!!!! I have been a fan of the ONEX brand for many years. It is wonderful that still today I can find a great product, the style and fit that suit me. Zappos has a wide selection and gets them to me as promised. I am so thrilled to have a quality product that is cute and functional at the same time. The advice in the description to order a size up is right on the money! I can't wait for sunny days so I can wear my sandals. I have two pairs of this style and three other styles and plan on ordering one more!!!!!

Meeting Onex - The first time I slipped this wonderful shoe on it was fun and funky and oh so comfortable! So I wanted another pair, and another pair---4 is definitely enough in the little varied styles/colors----but I love this shoe!
