These sandals are very comfortable and are true to size. The footbed is soft and cushioned. The "wedge" in the back is about an inch high. I have back problems and these shoes haven't given me any pain. I can wear them all day at work and feel fine. Super comfy and attractive!

I wear normally wear a size 10 and often come up a bit short. I went with size 11 for this style and it fits perfectly. The only problem is getting my toes used to the between the toe strap, will have to use something to keep from getting blisters until the leather softens up and the toes toughen up. This is my first pair of Minnetonka sandals and I love them so far.

This is a terrific skirt. It can be worn short-ish or longer since the waist is somewhat stretchy. The boysenberry is a beautiful color, and I also have the skirt in black. It washes easily, doesn't shrink and doesn't wrinkle, so I don't need to iron it. It's a knit, cool and comfortable. Love it.

This is a beautiful shoe with plenty of style and cushion. Unfortunately the plastic piece didn't feel comfortable between my toes. Disappointing because I really wanted to keep them. :(

This is a really cute sandal. Goes with everything. The toe post is a little long and the sandal is slightly narrow at the toe. It seems very comfortable at first; good cushioning in the footbed but doesn't appear to have staying power. I can wear this to work all day but by the end of the day, my feet are a little tired and sore. Just to note, I am on my feet for most of the day. Overall, great shoe.

Like the shoe, but returning it because the bottom covering is so light. I'm afraid it will show sweat and look dirty too fast. Returning this shoe for the silver one with the darker bottom.

These are beautiful, but too narrow for me. I always wear a standard size 6, never need a wide size. I purchased these in a standard size 6. They were so narrow, they looked like they fit my seven year old daughter, who wears a size 2 in youth. They were just a tad too long for her, or I would have just given them to her. The shoes are so pretty that I would have tried again in a wide, but that is not available.

I knew these wouldn't fit but I tried anyway, just because they are so truly me! I have a narrow foot and these seem quite wide, even for regular width. There was no way I was going to make it work, so back they go. Sigh...the heartbreak of sandal shopping with slender feet. Minnetonka, please make these way cool sandals in narrow so I can buy many pairs in a variety of colors!

Love the shoe, color is so nice and the price is great. Footbed is comfy BUT THE TOE PORTION IS AWFUL!! The stitching is on the INSIDE so the seam rubs against the tender spot between your toes. Ouch! Back they go.

These flip-flops are very true to size. I have many foot issues such as bunions and plantar fasciitis so I'm particular about shoes. The only drawback for me would be that they are a tad heavier than some other flip-flops I have, but that's just me.

These fit perfectly when I bought them; unfortunately the straps stretched radically over time and I started walking out of them.

I have only worn these shoes once or twice so far. My only complaint at this time is that they don\'t run in half sizes. I wear a 9 in most shoes. However, I like my flip flops to be a size 8.5. I ordered both an 8 and a 9. The 8 was a tad too short and the 9 too long and a bit too wide. However, I will keep the 9 because they are comfortable and I love the style.

I am not much a thong wearer but these are so comfy. The suede is so soft under your foot. I went with a half size larger than I normally wear because they only come in full sizes.

A few years ago I got the silver/strap sandals. They are heavy for my little feet so that took some getting used to, along with the fact that they are not narrow enough to fit me well. Even with that I do love them. Now the cloth under the foot is wearing out. How can I get that replaced, because the strap and sole are not worn really at all. thank you to good old Minnetonka (shoes I wore often as a youngster).

I found Zappos to be great. Free shipping both ways is great incentive. I wear 9.5 and I ordered both 9 and 10 and sent the 9 back due to free shipping. I love the sandal. It fits well and is comfortable. The only slight drawback is that the fabric on the base of the sandal where your foot sits is a little slippery but because there isn\'t much of a rise due to the design of the heel, it\'s not too bad.

These are my \'go to\' footwear all summer. They get me from the garden to the mall and just about everywhere else I go all summer. I love them!

I love these sandals. They take a little breaking in because the seam on the leather thong felt stiff the first few times I wore them. But I got used to it very quickly!

These sandals not only look good, they're comfortable. I need slight arch support and these sandals have just that.

I just purchased these sandals and the weather in Georgia has not been warm enough to wear them outside and really get a feel for what walking all day would be like. I have worn them around the house and they are very comfortable and are really an attractive sandal. They quality seems to be very good.

This is a really cute shoe that I just loved -- but it fell apart after one summer, much like my shearling boots from Minnetonka. Their styles are cute but they're just not made to last.

Love these shoes. Comfortable and stylish. However, I've had to replace the lining twice in 3 years. The felt wore out my first season, didnt seem to be very durable. But I love them so much, and the rest of the shoe is still in great shape, so I hate to throw them away. So, my shoe repair guy just keeps replacing the lining with leather and I'm going on my 4th season with them.

I have the Red ones and receive lots of compliments. Comfort is good. Leather is stiff between the toes has to be worn and broke in.

Love the shoe -
If you normally wear a 1/2 size, go up to the next full size. Sandal is very comfortable and looks nice on the foot. I would order the same sandal in a different color. I would recommend this sandal.

Cute but don't walk a lot! I bought this shoe to wear on an overseas trip. I did a fair amount of walking and the straps on this shoe dug into the top of my foot and made it very difficult to walk after a while. The footbeds are very comfortable, the heel height is good, and the shoes LOOK great. I got a lot of compliments.

Minnetonka Silverthorne Thong -
I ordered this shoe in black and it is very cute in person. Pretty comfortable - although I wouldn't want to walk a marathon in it. Stylish look for a casual thong. This shoe fits me with no room to spare. It's exactly the size of my foot and I'm a true size 5. So, I would say if you run in between order a 1/2 size bigger.
