I have a C width foot with a high arch. I\'m surprised that Taryn Rose, an orthopedic surgeon, has only B widths and doesn\'t take into account a high arch. This sandal, in a half size larger than I normally wear, would not strap around the ankle and the buckle holes were not punched through.

Very, very comfortable. Walked all over Key West and New Orleans in these light, delightfully non-clunky shoes - no blisters, no fatigue, no problems. They didn’t need much of a break-in period. They looked stylish and attractive with pants and dresses.

I love these sandals - I have owned three pairs. My only complaint is that the lining splits on the sole. I'm not sure if the leather is thinner(because it's very comfortable and soft) or if it's after wear but the foam core shows through and it's not attractive. I may be too hard on shoes but for $200+ I would like better wear.

I love the shoe overall. Very comfortable. The back strap is too long in the shortest position. Only thing I would change. I have worn for several long days and love the feel.

Very cute and comfortable - The shoes appear clunkier in the picture than they are in real life. In real life they are very pretty as well as extremely comfortable.

About Taryn Rose

In 1998, the footwear industry changed forever with the arrival of Taryn Rose International, a line of luxury shoes as fashionable as they are functional. Founded by a young orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Taryn Rose, the brand struck a chord with women desiring to be well dressed while having a sense of well being and very quickly established a dedicated following.

Hand-sewn in Italy, Taryn Rose shoes are made with the finest materials and are known the world over for their style, ease and remarkable fit. Taryn Rose’s inspiration lies in the evolution of people's lives and how fashion can fuse with function in the most innovative way. Taryn Rose consistently takes on the challenge to find the next breakthrough in technology and remain on the cutting-edge of design and manufacturing methods. In 1998, Taryn Rose became the first footwear company to utilize the NASA-created Poron cushioning that gained the nickname “memory foam” for its ability to retain 95% of its cushioning after years of use. This breakthrough was followed by the patented Aqua Rose camoscio in 2006, giving customers a water-proof suede that could actually be worn on a rainy day. Every Taryn Rose shoe is designed to meet the lifestyle needs and fashion cravings of today's on-the-go individual. The recent eco-friendly offering literally helps the earth-conscious customer measure her carbon footprint. Each season, Taryn Rose continues to exceed standards and bring customers the latest and best advancements the industry has to offer.

What makes a Taryn Rose shoe different? Arch Support: Taryn Rose shoes are built on an asymmetrical last, allowing for full arch support, which increases the foot’s mobility within the shoe, decreases fatigue and protects the ankles. Breathability: Taryn Rose shoes are lined with the same final quality of leather used on the uppers, making the foot more comfortable from the inside out. It also increases breathability, because natural materials breathe in a way that synthetics cannot. Cushioning: A generous cushion of Poron® is built in to support the ball of the foot. Poron® is a foam with memory, so it literally springs back to retain its shape. Flexibility: Extra cushioning and supple materials encourage the foot to move naturally within the shoe. Lightness: Taryn Rose is constantly looking for materials to cushion the foot and provide support without adding weight. Evolutionary: Taryn Rose shoes have been designed in response to changes in the way we live. Customers lead active lives and want to be able to think on their feet. Details: Special attention is paid to the well-being of the customers and to the planet. The use of water-soluble glue is less toxic than commercial cobbler’s glues and allows the shoes to breathe and stretch naturally, decreasing tears and extending their functional life.

DITTO TO PREVIOUS 5 STAR REVIEWS... There isn't anything more for me to add to all the earlier reviews except to say that I had this shoe in my Zappos 'favorites' waiting for it to go on sale... but... after reading all the rave reviews on Zappos website for this style, and being a Taryn Rose fan anyway... I decided to buy them at full price... and... I do not regret it a bit! These beauties are worth every penny... I will be getting more in other colors...

Still a great sandal - This is my second pair of this great sandal and I am very pleased - I consider this the benchmark shoes for Taryn Rose. I ordered these in a gold color which is very versatile. I find this sandal to be extremely comfortable and easy to wear with any outfit. They are well made and wear well.

Most comfortable and stylish walking sandal ever! I recently bought this sandal to take on a trip to NYC, with the recommendations written here. Prior to the trip I wore them once to the grocery store (for break in purposes, of course), and not again until day one of the trip when I walked TEN (yes, 10) miles around midtown New York. I had no blisters, rub marks, sore or tired feet; nothing, after walking ten miles in one day. They feel like pillows on your feet. I have never worn a pair of shoes this comfortable, even the other Taryn Rose shoes that I have. I didn't slip on the boat or the subway when it got bumpy either! I liked the Gold Crinkle Nappa because it went with everything I took with me and dressed the shoe up. I ordered size 7 1/2 and 8, and kept the 8, because it fit my foot better across the width. 8 is my usual shoe size. Like I already said, these shoes felt like pillows! On about the third day of our walking trip they did start a little slapping on the heel. The shoes had conformed to the shape of my foot and were even more comfortable. Also, this happened only when my foot was a little damp from the July heat and walking. I would not use this slapping as a reason not to buy this shoe; just use a little talcum powder and continue to enjoy the comfort. I was concerned about this shoe looking too utilitarian. The gold crinkle took care of that issue. They looked good with denim, walking shorts, skirts and dresses. Short of real dress up, they were great with everything! I highly recommend this shoe for any kind of walking! They are absolutely worth every dime!

Super comfortable sandal - As other reviewers have said, Taryn Rose shoes are expensive, but when you get them you know you got your $$ worth! These shoes can't be beat re comfort. And so well made. My third pair of Taryn Rose. They are a go-to shoe when you want quality and comfort. I got the metallic color and they are great because they look either gold or silver depending on what you are wearing.

I love my shoes - These are so pretty and comfortable that I am almost able to justify spending the most I've ever spent on shoes. I have the crinkled nappa gunmetal, which goes with everything, and can look like a dressy metallic, or casual with jeans. I am very fussy on fit and comfort, and these are just my favorite shoes.

Attractive and comfortable - I purchased the gunmetal Taylor sandals. They are very comfortable and attractive. I recently had foot surgery, so I needed sandals that would allow for the maximum amount of adjustment. The fit was excellent on my foot that is still puffy and healing. However, it was too wide on the other foot, but I loved the look and color, so I had the straps shorted, which greatly improved the fit. Overall, the shoe runs wide for a medium. The 41 was just right in width, but too short in length. It was worth a few extra dollars to get the 42 a little narrower. I wear a true 10.5 and the 42 was the right length. I like them so much, I am contemplating purchasing the black patent.

New Taryn Rose Taylor Owner - I bought one of the plain black leather Taylor's. My foot is narrow so I bought a narrow and although Zappos does not appear to carry them, the shoe store in my town does. This solved the narrow problem for me. They seem to be doing well so far for the 3 days I have had them. I have bunions so that's saying something.

Wonderful - I have looked for several weeks now for a 'go to' sandal for the summer that wasn't too fussy or on the other extreme too outdoorsy. I finally found it in the Taylor. I love the sole combined with the red patent leather. They run a little on the wider side for me at least. I had to adjust the straps over to the point that the inner lining shows a just a little beyond the velcro. I almost sent them back because of the width issue, but that little adjustment did the trick. These are beautiful quality, too! Thanks to Zappos for their continued great service. I tried and returned SEVERAL pair of sandals and Zappos performed without a hiccup.

Returned these sandals, with regret - I wanted to like this shoe, I really did. The comfortable sole and great arch support is superb. And I'd hoped that, because they come in patent leather, they could serve as dressy sandals to wear with pants suits. Alas, the thin straps look strange with such a thick sole; the straps hit my foot in odd places and the sandal simply wasn't flattering; and what IS that clicking sound? With regret, I had to return these sandals.

Great looking and wearing sandal! I already owned a pair of Taryn Rose shoes, but this is the first sandal I've purchased in the gold crinkle. It is extremely excellent quality, with a thick cushy sole and comfort that is unparalleled. It is such a good looking shoe that I plan to take them to Italy where I will do a ton of walking every day. It is a real novelty to find a stylish shoe that also offers great comfort. I am a 7B normally and found it true to size, although I think if someone has a narrow or slim foot, it will be too wide for them. For me, the foot bed is perfect. My only caveat is the lining which I find stops just under my toes (which I am quite aware of) and may have a propensity to lift with wear. In fact, I loved these shoes so much, I just purchased the black lizard in the same style. And by the way, I found all the reviews very helpful and purchased this style based on their raves. So thanks everyone!

This style runs large, order your true size, do not compensate for Taryn Rose sizing. Shoe also runs wide. Good support if you can get the correct sizing. Sadly, Taryn Rose sizing is just not consistent this year.

Dashed expectations - I was so thrilled to find this shoe - it's adorable, great reviews, etc. I normally wear a size 5 in Taryn Rose, and was really disappointed to find that this sandal runs so large. Sadly, these are going back.
