Pampa Comfort Toe Loop Sandal

Women's

These are wonderful with a couple of small caveats. As you can see from the pictures I’ve taken, these shoes are shaped like feet! They don’t force your toes into a point the way most women’s shoes do. Women don’t have pointy feet! Why do we have shoes that force our feet into this position? That’s what gives us bunions. It ticks me off. Some people won’t like these shoes because of that. They don’t exactly have a dainty look. More of a biblical desert look (at least in chocolate color). I like that. The material of the foot bed feels sooooo soft and comfortable! The soles are very, very cushioned. It’s like walking on a cloud! The leather straps are top-quality. If they bother you anywhere, I wouldn’t worry – this is good quality leather that will give. The toe strap did not bother me, as it did some others. And I think it looks super cool. I usually wear an 8 1/2 W. I had to order an 8W in these. They run a little long. Also, the wide width is truly wide, so if you don’t need wide width, I would imagine the medium width is a little wider than regular medium widths are... probably not a style for truly narrow feet. Like many people with wide feet, my foot is only wide at the joints where the toes meet the foot. My foot is not large in volume over all, and my ankles are not wide. So, as you can see from my picture, I can actually fit my whole finger in between my Achilles tendon and the backstrap of the sandal. This is a relatively minor disappointment, as the toe strap and the strap going across the top of the ankle hold the sandal on well enough that I don’t think the backstrap by the Achilles tendon will bother me. I do wish it were as easy to get shoes tailored as it is to get pants hemmed! My mom has loved SAS shoes for years. I am incredibly delighted that they are making them cuter, and I look forward to buying more from this quality shoe maker who cares about women’s feet.

This is my second pair of SAS PAMPAS in the Fantasia pattern. I bought the first pair in 2015 before a trip to Prague and Budapest. I wore them RIGHT OUT OF THE BOX, for 5-8 miles a day over cobblestones with zero problems. 3 years later, they are looking a little beat, but still comfy. I still wear them doing yard work, etc. but bought some new ones when I want to look tres chic! I’m a slightly vain 59 year old who needs support AND comfort, but loves shoes with style too. SAS is finally making shoes that someone other than 80 year old nuns want to wear! Check out the patina on my 3 year old, well loved pampas, along side my new ones!

Comfortable right out of the box! I am currently 5 months pregnant, and needed a pair of sandals that provided excellent support and comfort, while also looked professional enough for work and cute enough for warm days and dresses... and this is it! I am usually a size 6-6.5, and went i’m with a 6, perfect fit! I’ve also purchased a few SAS shoes for my parents in the past that they have worn for years. I am so happy to see more ‘young’ styles!

Labored over decision to pay this much for a pair of sandals - but after returning 3 pairs for various reasons (mainly to do with my megawide foot) I decided to pay more and hope the comfort hype for SAS was true...and it was. Walked 5 miles the first day I had them and they were great. Some of the SAS look a little 'old ladyish' but these looked a little more stylish.I do like them and I am hoping they with be part of my travel uniform on an upcoming trip to Europe.

These are incredibly comfortable! Like walking on air.
