I love these sandals! Actually, these are my second pair! I've practically worn-out my first pair. You can walk all day (sightseeing, shopping, etc.) in them.

Walking on air! I purchased one pair in nubuck over a year ago and wore them so much that the elastic strap wore down and eventually broke. I tried ordering another pair in the same color, but it wasn't available in my size. I now have a black pair. No matter what other shoe I wear, nothing compares to the comfort of these sandals. I hope they never stop making them! Just ordered another pair!

This is my 4th pair of soft walks so as you can see I just love them. They are soft and they fit great. They are the best shoes I have ever owned. My most recent pair of sandals was on sale which was the best ever.I am so happy to find these shoes so comfortable. Annette Lukasik

I never take a pair of shoes out of the box and wear them without complaining. These shoes are so comfortable my ten year old grand daughter asked me to get her a pair. They are stylish and cute. I love them I am getting another pair in black.

These sandals are the most comfortable I\'ve every worn. I have large bunions and the extra wide size covers the bunions nicely without rubbing. They are more stylish than many others I\'ve been forced to wear because of bad feet. I liked the first pair so much that I ordered two more.

What a disappointment -
Cute shoe, good fit, wide enough, but I hate it. That squishy, plasticy insole gives a disgusting feeling on the bottom of your foot. Not only that but it sounds like a balloon deflating with every step. No thank you!

I had almost given up trying to find a pair of comfortable, "everyday" sandals before ordering the SoftWalk Barbados sandals in black nubuck leather. They are absolutely perfect. The fit is good, sizing is accurate, the insole is very soft and comfortable and equally important, they look good, too. I think I've worn them every day since receiving them! I would also like to applaud Zappos customer service. It is the best. I lost count of the number of pairs of sandals I ordered and returned before finding these, and never once had a problem doing so. Other retailers should take a page from the book of Zappos excellent customer service. Thanks!

I love the Softwalk Barbados. I normally wear a WW, and this shoe was almost too wide. I kept it because it was so comfortable. The top strap is adjustable so that helped keep it on my foot. I highly recommend this shoe.

Bought these sandals because I am either standing or walking around a store working in a sales position for 6 or 7 hours. It's a casual atmosphere, so they were perfect. I found them comfortable and less tiring on my legs and feet.

COMFORT PLUS CUTENESS!
What a terrific shoe! Right out of the box, they are comfortable and need no break-in period. Great to have adjustable straps! Soft leather and a very flattering style. Great heel height and love the "driver" heel so the patent stays shiny and nice. A very cute summer sandal, wearable with everything. Love that their lightweight too - you're not "dragging them" around!

I have wanted these sandals for two years. Finally I found them on Zappos and everything was right from price to shipping! They are very comfortable and true to size. I can never find narrow shoes locally. The egg crate sole is wonderful. These shoes are every bit as great as I thought they would be!

I really like these sandals. I already knew about the comfort of SoftWalk shoes (even though some of them make that whooshing air sound). These don't seem to have that problem and I like the pattern - cute but not too outrageous. They go with a lot of colors. Am thinking about picking up a second pair since they are so comfortable for my wide foot. Try them - you won't be sorry.

I have a hard to fit foot (10.5 AAAA); and because I have such a hard time finding shoes I sometimes cheat with a 10N. As a result my feet hurt a lot of the time. But these are so comfy! The insole is cushiony and soft. I wore them to my son's baseball tournament (8 hours!) and my feet and legs didn't ache as much. Another plus: finding a comfy shoe that doesn't look like a nursing shoe! My only complaint is the top strap is not so forgiving and so my instep (top of my foot) gets rubbed a bit -- I'm hoping that will dissipate as I break them in. Highly recommended!

Very comfortable shoe. Sizing was perfect. They are comfortable for walking and being on your feet for a long time (right out of the box!). I did find that one of my feet is "off" a little, though and that my heel was not centered properly. As such, after only a short period of wearing these shoes, that one shoe is now "deformed." Perhaps this is due to the incredibly soft padding in the sole, I'm not sure. I will still wear them, though, since they are a casual sandal. I got this sandal in black.

I purchased this shoe in the black patent. It is great because it can look dressy with a skirt or it looks just as good with capri pants. The shoe is very comfortable with no break-in time. The only drawback I can see is if your feet doesn’t come pretty close to the end and you could see the "egg crate" sole. It runs pretty true to size, but does seem to stretch a little in width after it is worn awhile. Otherwise, it is a good shoe for the money.

I normally wear a very narrow shoe. These worked very well for me in an AA. Very comfortable and seems to be a versatile shoe. I would recommend them for anyone with a narrow foot. Shoes in our size are hard to find, so us "narrow footed ladies" need to stick together!
