    AWESOME - These shoes are GREAT!!! You have not on the comfort of a Flip Flop/Thong, a unique one as well. They are very classy, can be worn with anything. I love a platform heel & these worked out perfect, I liked them so much, I bought the Brown, too. They will not disappoint if you like this style shoe.

    Fun, funky sandal - Great funky look, lots of height (great if you’re short, 5'2 like me). I work at a winery on weekends & wore these all day while serving wine. I have a bad lower back with some bulging disks from having kids & these shoes worked out well for adding a little extra "kick" to my outfit. Pretty good for gals with a wider foot.

    Funky - These sandals feel absolutely wonderful. You can't tell by this photo but. The sides of this sandal have the same patent print as the strap which gives it a dressier look and they make your legs look great too! Definitely a must have.

    When I read about how comfy these flip flops were I had my doubts because I have been there done that with buying online. But then my flip flops came in the mail and I tried them on, OMG! They are everything they say they are and sooo much more! I wear them everywhere and with everything. They are cushy comfy and cute! Jeans, skirts, shorts, they all work! I want more colors!

    Perfect summer thong - comfortable, classy, and well made! I have them in brown and black. The patterned patent leather and wedge/platform bottom makes them a little dressy, but not overly-so. Looks great with jeans, shorts, capris, and summer dresses. And did I mention comfortable! Can't go wrong with this shoe - just wish they made it in navy and red!!

    I have worn the black ones all summer and they have become my favorite flip flops! I loved them so much I got the brown ones a few weeks ago and am equally pleased. I have about 5 pairs of Volatile flops and they are the best I have ever worn! Highly recommend them.

    Extremely comfortable, stylish and unlike any other sandal I\'ve come across. I even bought a pair for my mom and was asked by two women where she had bought them. I also bought a pair in brown in case they get discontinued down the road.

    Hi,\r\n\r\nThis is long overdue. I have been a loyal customer of Zappos and not only are their merchandise properly advertised and reviewed, but I have never encountered better customer service. I always receive my orders next day, even if I enter my option for standard delivery.\r\n\r\nI will continue to be a loyal customer and urge everyone to shop at Zappos. I\'ve turned a few of my co-workers and family onto it!!\r\n\r\nThanks so much!\r\n\r\n

    This is a super cute shoe. I thought it ran a little big. I had bought another pair of the same brand and was looking for the same fit and feel. The straps are not as comfortable as I thought they would be. My other volatiles had padding on the inside. I would buy a ½ size smaller.

    These are cute shoes! I wore these as well as the Volatile Man Kind rhinestone shoes in black all Summer. Volatile shoes are so fun and stylish plus I haven't had any staining on the bottom of my feet from them like I have encountered with some other brands. Highly recommend!

    Just got these sandals and they are great! The picture does not do them justice since they are so much prettier. I ordered the brown and they are a faux croco, the color is just right, and I can wear them either casual or dressy. The wedge is nice and high, good for long pants, and they are so comfortable. Zappos shipping policy is fantastic, I got these in less than 24 hours! I am delighted with this company, and the products are terrific.

    I love Volatile's cushy sandals - I have a few pairs and they are my "go-to" shoes for shopping. This shoe is super cute, but features a turned under strap and I know it is going to cause blisters. Sadly, I returned them and bought a different style. Zappos is amazing though!

    If you have any allergies to metals, nickels, pewter etc. STAY AWAY from these!! There's a little metal stud that holds the thong part together & the back is just exposed so that the metal sits on your skin. The result? A nasty patch of eczema that just won't quit (a year later!) & a pair of unwearable shoes. What a shame, too, because outside of the metal allergy, the shoe matches everything, is comfortable as all get out, makes your legs look great & everyone checked them out on the subway. Perfect for those with no sensitivities to metals, but if you do, don't buy these. I wrote to the company & they never even replied. So my overall rating HAS to be low. Hope this helps someone!

    This is a very pretty sandal, the picture doesn't make justice. It is a bit dressier than a regular flip flop which means that you can wear them with jeans, trousers or a pretty summer dress! Very cushy and comfortable. The color is dark chocolate, very wearable and it is guaranteed that will be a staple on any wardrobe.

    I love these thongs! They are so comfortable and the entire fooltbed is cushy so it absorbs impact. I received them in one day and was so pleased I ordered two more pairs! They are high enough to look stylish but you can wear them all day without foot pain!

    Great arch support, stylish, and very comfortable. Since it is a platform in front as well as back, does not hurt your back! Great summer sandal for shorts, dresses, or pants, plan on wearing them everywhere. I took a +1/2 size larger than I usually wear in shoes (8-8-1/2 but needed a 9 in this style).

    These shoes are super cute and comfy but I feel that they run a bit wide. Got lots of compliments on them when I wore them but I found that my feet slide forward quite a bit due to lack of snug fit of the upper. Next time I will order a half size or size smaller to see if that helps. Overall cute and mostly comfy shoe.

    I love these shoes! I own quite a few pairs of Volatile brand shoes and these are my favorite. They have a nice higher heel to them that can easily be dressed up or down. The only drawback is the top of the sandal takes a little longer to break in since the pleather is stiff. That stiffness is a benefit in the long run though because they won't stretch out on top as fast as some other sandals. I've been wearing them since the Spring and they have made me nothing but happy!
