Wonderful shoes. These are extremely comfortable and true to size. I got these; however, at Dillard's for much less. That is a great price!

I love these shoes! At first, I thought they were a little too high, but after wearing them, they are so comfortable and stable that you don't think you are going to fall down! These shoes are very well-fitting, true-to-size, and comfortable. I have three pairs of Sofft shoes; they all fit into this category. You know it's a good shoe if after wearing it for the first time your feet don't hurt!

For a high wedge, this shoe is pretty comfortable. However, the shoe has stitching right across the ball of the foot which is uncomfortable. I have to wear the gel inserts so I don\'t feel the stitching.

Love these shoes; being vertically challenged they give me the extra height, but at the same time they are extremely comfortable to wear. The high straps stop my foot from slipping, and as I am a little wide on the instep, they give my feet a nice shape. If you are looking for a comfortable, fashionable, high sandal, then these are the ones for you.

This is a great sandal. The cork heel provides a nice contrast to the glossy black leather, making it even more versatile. It runs a little wider than most Sofft shoes though. I definitely have wide feet, and that\'s why this brand Sofft is so great for me. I kept the sandals, not able to believe that a wide shoe could be too wide for me. But it is! I wish I\'d gotten a medium, but only in this sandal.

I bought this shoe in black originally and then had to get it in the brown as well! I wear 11 N and this shoe fits very well, but is a tiny bit loose in the second strap from the top. It is comfortable to wear all day and to walk in. I get tons of compliments on it! It looks great with pants, shorts, capris and skirts!

Had a similar pair last year in black. They are the most comfortable shoes I own. Size 6 fit perfectly, I've noticed others said they ran wide, but I found it fit just as I expected. I get tons of compliments on these shoes and I love them!

I love the look of these sandals. I am a huge Sofft fan. The heel on these is a challenge; very high and very narrow. I can handle it, but be prepared, it could be a problem for some people.

Wow! I thought customer service had truly died. What a wonderful surprise! My order was expedited (on a Sunday) and surpassed my expectations. I'm usually reluctant to buy online because of shipping costs if you don't like an item. Who likes to pay $12 to try on pants that don't fit? And then the hassle of the post office, etc. I love your return policy, though I don't plan to use it. Thanks for the extra care to convenience. I will definitely shop with your company again.

These are VERY comfortable! the sole is padded and although they look high, they are very easy to walk in. The fit is true to size, a little bit on the wide side

These sandals can be worn casual or dressy. They are very comfortable. I have a wide foot and the medium with is perfect! You don't realize the height of the heel because of the platform in the front. I highly recommend this sandal!

I LOVE THIS SHOE! It is cute, it is comfortable, and I can spend an entire day on my feet in this shoe and not regret the experience. And I get compliments all of the time! I'm thinking of purchasing another pair in white. : )

I have a collection of eclectic high heels but I need stylish teaching shoes that I can run around in. I love the look of them but they were too shiny in the brown...not casual enough. The heel is nothing. If you're one to wear high heels, these feel like flats. I love the brand, Sofft b/c of the cushion of the shoes. I had to return this shoe only b/c the right foot bands dug into the side of my foot. I only wore them on carpeted area and was shocked at how great the left foot felt but the right foot was a clear sign of what un-pleasantries where to follow if I were to wear this shoe at work...after walking up and down 8 flights of stairs at least 5 times a day in a NYC school with no elevator!!! You can understand my pain! It's not the brand but definitely this style of shoe with the multi-band look caused my finicky the issue. I’m typically a 6.5 but in this brand I go for 6 and they fit perfectly.

As always, Sofft shoes are very comfortable. I work retail and am on my feet all day. I have almost 100 pairs of shoes and without a doubt these are the most comfortable shoes I own. Sofft makes a great stylish comfortable shoe for people with wider feet.

Great sexy summer shoe! I got them in red and love them. I'm not used to a high heal, but the cork wedge is easy to walk in and the soles are padded more than most sandals. They do run wide, I normally need a size wide but the medium fits fine.

I get a lot of compliments on this shoe. It's got that gladiator styling and looks a lot better in person than it does online. The shoe is very comfortable considering the heel height. I'm very happy with them!

Serious Comfort & Great Looks - These are some of the most comfortable shoes I have ever owned. I have a narrow foot and found these to fit perfectly and very true to size. They are a stylish finish to most any outfit and I receive several compliments each time I wear them. A must for every closet.

Wonderful sandals for those with wide feet who want some style for the summer. Surprisingly easy to walk in considering the height, and perfect for summer evenings with either pants or sundresses. I have a "tall" foot, and the Mariel was the first gladiator style sandal I've found that works well without blisters or pressure on the top of my feet in the heat.

Very nice shoe, left shoe does make a swooshing air sound but no big deal. Very stylish and comfortable.

These shoes are extremely comfortable for having such a high heel along with being very fashionable. I bought another pair in black.
