Customer Reviews Alegria Carina

These sandals are great. I was looking for comfortable sandals for a lot of walking. Sometimes the strap across the foot loosens, but there is velcro on the top so the strap can be made tighter. Would recommend these shoes. As always, Zappos service is great.

I really wanted to like these. I wanted a dressier flip flop for my 'bad' feet and I wanted to like these. They are very cute! But they just don't fit right. There isn't much arch support...and just walking around the bedroom hurt my feet. Guess I keep walking in my Mephistos!

Super cute, very cushy footbed and didn’t irritate my painful big tow joint, but threw my alignment off and caused knee pain sadly.

I kept these as they were cute but kind of wish I didn't. They are hard to walk in as my foot was slipping all over the place because I'm more of a 5 and these say 5/5.5 and are much closer to the 5.5 plus they are wider. They sort of feel like I'm walking on those Japanese style block flip flops.

Wish I could have kept these; they are very pretty sandals. Unfortunately, they were not comfortable-the thong rubbed immediately- but they looked horrible on my large feet. Not terribly comfortable either. There is no arch support whatsoever.

While cute, and overall comfortable, the leather between the toes rubs against the top of my big toe and second toe. A guaranteed blister spot if I wore them for more than 30 minutes. Drat. As the style is cute and the sole had enough cushioning for working all day. Though the sole seemed a bit slippery on my hardwood floors. Perhaps carpet would be more stable, though my workplace isn't fully carpeted so back these go.

Disappointed - Toe post was too tall for me. It was almost like your toes and your instep/midfoot would have to be about the same height for these to fit right. I have high arches and voluminous feet and was so hoping for an open, easy, slide. Most "comfort" sandals look so geriatric and don't have much actual function if you are looking for the thing a podiatrist would approve. I mean, I don't even think geriatric people want to look geriatric. This looks not so bad. Regular Fit flops don't work for me, either - my feet aren't flat enough to get them on. I usually love a thong style, but this just didn't fit right. Seemed like it also might rub on the area just above the buckle near the arch. I did try the Cork vs a color that might be leather, so maybe leather would be softer? I was going for a light neutral. Strap placement/thong, etc, on the Orthaheel Tide fits me great, and I love that Orthaheel has some amount of arch support, but I need some semi-rigid sandals because of my arthritis in my MTP joint. While I love how my Orthaheels feel, they are so flexible that it can irritate my arthritis. I live in an urban area and walk everywhere vs using cars. And these have the 1 1/2" sole vs the 1 1/4". Wish Alegria in general had more arch support so those of us with high arches could have support there. Wish the straps on these were in a place that fit my foot!

Definitely true to size! I can only wear these sandals due to toe arthritis. I LOVE my turtle sandals! The leather is softer than other Alegria sandals I have. The turtle back is green enamel! So nice!

These are the most comfortable shoes I own. I have three pairs and can't live without them.

I have never paid this much for a sandal but would do it again in a minute. Absolutely beautiful sandal. Fit is spot on with good arch support and beautiful color!

I originally ordered these in a smaller size so I had to send them back. The new ones for perfectly! And they are so comfortable. I have foot issues and these shoes give me the support I need to be comfortable walking around. Zappos customer service is wonderful. They made my return easy and quick

Beautiful sandals! So happy that the width can be adjusted allows me to be on my feet all day and still comfortable!

VERY COMFY A LITTLE NARROWER THAN I REMEMBER BUT MAYBE MY OLD ONES ARE REALLY STRETCHED OUT !:)

I love Alegria shoes. I thought I would try the Carina. For "normal" feet this is probably perfect. I have a wide foot and my bunions rested on the edge of the stitching, thus not a comfortable fit for me. :( I am sad they did not fit.

Love this brand (very supportive and comfortable) and loved everything about this sandal except for the edging. The decorative edging with the stitching looks great, but my foot occupies the whole footbed, and the includes the edging. It felt uncomfortable, so I had to return. I have another pair of sandals from Alegria where the lining extends to the edge of the shoe. Love those! I was very disappointed to have to return these. I hope that Alegria either extends the lining or makes a wider width.

I was excited about these as I own another sandal from Algeria that's super comfortable. The issue with this one is the metal buckle part which makes this adjustable. It pinches your skin. :(

This is at least my fifth pair of Alegria sandals. For me the support is perfect, no break in period, great right out of the box!! Very stylish, not frompy

I love these. Comfortable and very easy to walk in. Almost like a massage for my legs.

I am so very grateful for the design of this brand of footwear. The sandals I ordered fit so well and most of all are extremely comfortable even with numerous issues with my arthritic feet . I also received my sandals days sooner than expected. Alegria is the BEST!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thank-you.

Nice, comfy style for summer.

I did not know that I was buying a used shoe.

These are stylish and so comfortable. I’ve finally found a sandal for me that feels and looks good.

Excellent

The fit was perfect and the foot bed was super comfortable but I have to return them because there is a bar on the inside of the shoe that hits on the bone of my foot making the shoe too uncomfortable to wear.
