I love the Donna styleI have four pairs besides this one. :) But this one... it is so much less comfortable than the others, which is a shame because I love it. I can wear a 9 in any other style and they adjust to be some of the most comfortable shoes I own. (Had to get a velvet pair for winter!) These I had to size up, and they are still uncomfortable. I'm so worried they will never get to where I want them to be.

Eh. These are ok for a quick trip to the store. Not sure what all the fuss is about with this brand. Bought my daughter a pair and they didn't stay on her feet well enough to wear much.

Shoes looked great on website but when we received them the colors were very faded.

I am a massage therapist I mostly work barefoot so I need a black shoe I can get in and out of quickly. I've tried and loved several Sanuk styles but the lightweight canvas that is so comfortable breaks down very quickly, hence the reason I've had several. I do not like the feel of those shoes that are too stiff to narrow and the pointed nature of the toes box makes my toes curl, of which several makers exist on the market. I got these hoping they would be more like the rest of the styles I've ordered. They are still stiff but only because I just started wearing them but they are very narrow and make my toes scrunch inside the shoe so if I was doing more walking than from one session to another they would be too small. Hoping that once they are broken in better they will be like a great comfy sock with a sole attached.

Cute shoe but as other reviewers have said, if you are normally a half size, these just won't work. I tried up to the bigger size and down to the smaller, neither worked. Too bad.

The look of the shoes I ordered we're great, but the fit was too true to size, and there was no half size to go to. I have had to return all shoes and order one size larger with the hope the shoes won't be too big!

Really comfy shoe, looks great, feels great, washes easily. Wore these most days for 6 months. Grip wore away first, (near impossible to skateboard in them, feet would slip right off the board), sole started growing noticeable thinner after a few months continuous wear and now one has a hole worn through under the ball of my foot and the material around the top is coming apart. Ok for casual wear, but if your going more continuous wear buy a pair with a better sole: they will be better value and last longer.

These are super cute, but I had to return them due to the lack of half size issue. They really do have more of a slipper than shoe feel -- even the noise they make when you walk sounds like slippers. So if that's going to bug you, I'd go for something else. I'm usually a 6.5 and ordered 7 -- definitely too big. I'm going to return the 7s and try the 6s. They are really kind of expensive for what these shoes are...but they are really cute.

I bought these and they were super comfortable and stylish, but, like the Sanuk Vagabonds I bought for my boyfriend, the smell set in and although mine wasn't as bad, I ended up having to get rid of the shoe with the lingering scent. Just couldn't do it anymore. Guess we have either stinky shoes or stinky feet. I might add, I have not had this problem with other shoes before.

Firstly, I had to order these through a Canadian retailer because this site does not ship to Canada..and what a pain that was! The Donna's are extremely hard to find through a retailer, and if they do have them they usually don't stock my size. I am a size 6 in regular shoes. I just ordered a pair of shuffles in 6 and they're a bit too big but they are okay with insoles. The Donna's are MUCH bigger than the shuffles and even with insoles were too large to wear. The 6's feel like a 7-8 for me, but it is impossible to find a size 5 through online retailers without getting hit with major shipping fees from the states. I also own yoga mat and fraidy sandals that are perfect in a size 6, so it seems sizing is all over the place. I love these so much and I've been searching for them online for a while but it doesn't look like I'll be finding my size in store or online in Canada any time soon! :(

I love the shoes, they are very comfortable. The only problem with them is that they don't breath at all and my feet sweat.

These are cute and comfy for the beach and school, but they won't last as long as you would think. They started to fray around the top after wearing them around after the beach. Buy them a size smaller...they stretch...

Totally comfortable and cool -
This is the first pair I bought and I bought a second pair just weeks later. I do agree that you need to order 1 size up from your normal shoe size but other than that I have no problems and I am on the hunt for pair #3

Great idea... needs improvement -
I'm an 8 1/2. The 9 was too long and too wide. The 8 is the correct width, but just a bit too short. They are soft and flexible enough to wear the smaller size. The footbed is not as cushiony as I expected. I thought it would be a bit more like the Teva flip-flops. I guess my expectations were too high.

I wear a women's size 8.5 so I ordered a size 8 in these, they fit but one shoe is already slipping off my heal and I have only worn them twice!

They fit perfectly but the heal on the left shoe was defective; it won't put any pressure in my heal to hold the shoe on. Love the deisgn but I had to return.

I absolutely loved this pattern and decided to treat myself. When they arrived I made the mistake of only trying on one shoe, which fit perfectly. However, a week later when I wanted to wear them I was shocked to find heel portion of the right shoe 100% worthless; it had zero tension and wasn't holding onto my heel at all. I couldn't even walk around in the house without getting completely annoyed. I love Sanuks and have been buying them for 10 years and have never had an issue. I was really disappointed with this shoe and the other that I ordered (returned immediately).

Great concept, but poor execution. These are comfortable, versatile, and durable (though apparently some have had problems with durability). Unfortunately, the sizing is all over the place. I've bought these in several colors and the sizing is different with every single pair. I normally wear a size 8.5. When I bought my first pair in size 8 (I went down since reviews said they stretch), they were falling off my feet, so I sized down to 7. One pair fit fabulously in size 7, but others are just too small. Size 8 is way too big, size 7 is just small enough to be uncomfortable (except on the random occasion that it's not). Honestly, these must be purchased from zappos.com, because you'll need the free return/exchange feature. I love the service from Zappos, but c'mon, Sanuk, would it kill you guys to make half sizes? Barring that, how 'bout hiring someone for quality control?

Super cute but absolutely no support -- like a piece of cardboard. I wouldn't even wear them around the house, as I simply need some kind of support. They are cute! :)

First of all, it is scary how fast Zappos ships! They have set the bar on customer service very high. As for the Sanuks, they are okay. Not sure they are worth the money. After only about a month with limited wear, the seams are giving out. I wouldn't buy another pair.
