These shoes are very stylish, sexy, and great for summer wear. Order this
sandal a 1/2 size smaller. I love the
gladiator style
sandal and they are so much in right now. They will never go out of style. The ball of the foot needs some more padding but I can add that myself. I gave comfort 4 stars because it isn't a shoe you could wear all day without bothering your feet. I don't believe anyone would be disappointed. I did have to exchange for a 1/2 size smaller but that is okay. I am glad Zappos has customer reviews. This review will be helpful to someone I hope.

I usually can wear a regular width, but when the straps hit across the top of my foot, they tend to be too tight. I ordered a wide in this shoe and was sad to discover that it was too narrow. I liked the overall style of the shoe and the leather was nice and soft. There was an odd seam in the top though as if they had used two pieces of leather for the top of the shoes instead of one continuous piece. Also, the heel was set at a bit of an odd angle. That angle, along with the thinness of the heel, made it feel very unsteady.

I love the color bronze for summer because it accentuates my tan legs. This
gladiator sandal is stylish but not overtly trendy so they will continue to be wearable for some time. I was immediately drawn to the picture shown but the real clincher is when you put them on. They are so classy and beautiful yet will still pair well with
sundresses, and dressy
jeans. The 3" heel is comfortable while still being sexy, and the ankle strap is functional as well as pretty. Love the way the straps & heel cup hold my feet for comfort and stability, and the gel cushion is heavenly. My usual size 7 was perfect probably because the shape of the footbed matched my tapered toes. The perfect stylish shoe made for a woman that's not necessarily in her 20's any more but still wants to keep up with the fashion trend.

Ordered several pairs of shoes for a
wedding. This was not the winner, but I had to keep them, too. Love the simple, sexy
gladiator style - looks great with
jeans as well as
skirts and
dresses. Well made; nice leather. Ordered my usual size and fit was perfect. The ankle strap and gel insert in the heel make them easy to walk in and comfortable (even with the higher heel). The strap across the toe rubs a little bit, but I think that will stop as they wear in. Very versatile, nice
sandal for an affordable price.

Pretty but...
The snake pattern on this shoe is one of the best things about it, and then the style of the shoe. However, the really cool cushion in the heel of the shoe seems to add more pressure on the ball of the foot than add comfort to the heel. Purchasing an insert is an option, but making the shoe with heel and support in the ball area would be better. The leather is nice, but seems thin to the point that I would be concerned the buckle strap(s) would wear out easily.

These are so feminine but I was skeptical because my feet are wide and do not look that great in strappy shoes. These fit my feet perfectly because of the wide size option. I got the snake print and instantly loved them. Very feminine and comfortable, too.

I bought these shoes in part because I had a store credit burning a hole in my pocket. I was looking for something stylish but able to be dressed up or down with ease. These shoes fit the bill. I have high insteps but these shoes do not irritate the tops of my feet. The first time I wore them was for 8+ hours. Definitely keepers.
