The fit is good - I have "difficult" feet and the 6.5N fit well. As I have quite small-boned feet I like the delicate styling. I would have liked the soles to be a bit more flexible though - they feel quite stiff. These sandals are very reasonably priced - would have preferred to pay a little more and have a more flexible sole. However the footbed is very soft and comfortable.

I have these in white, and they are comfortable and can be worn with many outfits. They are okay for the office and definately more supportive than flip flops. My only problem is that after wearing them a few times they are a little stretched out. Atleast for my foot, they are too wide. Im still wearing them becuase they are very nice and comfy, but I feel my foot wiggle more than I would like. I wonder if anyone else had this experience?

Cute, comfy, casual sandal. On the down side, the narrow was simply too wide for my foot. Kept them anyway since they are so comfortable and needed no break in time. Great service from Zappos, as always!

These sandals look good, but are not that comfortable out of the box. The straps are stiff, and they hit across my toes in an very uncomfortable position. The buckle is also in an uncomfortable position. I hope they soften with wear. The soles are very comfortable, but these would not be shoes for a lot of walking. I tried in Greece and the straps were very uncomforable after a while.

I like these shoes they look good and they fit my very wide feet. Now the down side is if you have flat feet, and I do that can be a problem because there is no support. Also the back strap likes to slide down my heel so I have to move it back in place from time to time.\r\n

I was happy with the quick shipping! The sandals are cute. My weird little toe sticks out so it is not as comfortable as I had hoped for but not bad enough that I want to send them back. There is an air leak in one of the sandals that makes an annoying noise that I dislike. I am hoping that after some wear the sound/swoosh will go away.

These sandals looked comfortable, practical, and tasteful - but, oy, were they painful! Maybe these would have been fine for light, casual walking; but walking to my neighborhood park and back left the ball of my foot really sore and nearly blistered. These sandals feel good and well cushioned when you first put them on, but the longer you have them on the more painful they are!

The straps rubbed on the sides of my feet in an awkward place, and I couldn\'t get them adjusted so they did not do that. So I returned these. I was disappointed, as I wanted something strappy and thought these were going to be perfect. I tried the Joanne instead and it worked much better.

The shoe was about a half size bigger that I had expected. Too bad there aren’t halves in the larger sizes. Air escaped the padded footbed as I walked. Every step sounded like I was deflating an air mattress. It scared my cat, no joke. They were a really great price for the comfort and quality. I felt like I could walk all day in them... not with that hissing though.

I think this could have been a comfy shoe except for the strap by the pinky toe. It held the toe in by the nail so that the toe looked like it would pop out any minute and it hurt the nail.

I've worn these a couple of times. Had some problems with the buckle on one of the shoes, it was digging into my foot and left a bruise, but the other foot was fine! So if I could I'd give one shoe 5 stars and the other 2 stars!

I bought a pair of these in white a few months ago and liked them so well that I ordered a tan pair on Friday. Zappos, being the great company they are, upgraded me to overnight shipping and the shoes arrived today. I can't get my foot in either shoe, yet the size printed on the shoe is exactly the same as my Bass Margie's in white. So I measured the four straps on the white shoes and discovered that each strap is 1 to 1 1/4 inches shorter on the tan shoes. Same manufacturer, same style, same size printed on both pair of shoes, but one pair fits, and one doesn’t. Bass needs to work on their quality control.

Falling off my feet -
The shoes felt great when I first tried them on, but after wearing them to work for one day, the straps had stretched so much that they were falling off my feet. The only adjustment is the ankle strap, and tightening that strap just pushed my toes over the front edge of the shoe, while my heel was an inch from the back of the shoe. Unfortunately, I'd worn them, so they couldn't be returned.

Too narrow -
Definitely not true to size. Ordered an 8 1/2WW for my 8 1/2W feet and I couldn't even buckle them. Very disappointing because they are cute.

Only for a super skinny foot!
None of my shoes are wide width, but after reading the reviews, I bought this in wide, and it was still too narrow to fit! I am returning them and choosing a different black sandal.

Looks cute, but doesn't fit -
The straps are way too skimpy to fit comfortably -- around my foot at least.

Strap placement -
I wore Bass for years. I tried these in white--two sizes and two widths. My baby toe hung out or hurt due to strap placement. I wear 8.5 W and can't find a good, non-Grandma look in a white sandal. If these fit you, however, you'll love them. They wear like iron and have a great sole.

Short straps...
Well I thought I could get away with it...I have the same problem with the straps as many others do. TOO SHORT! I was so upset I wrote Bass about this issue.
Otherwise they felt like butter on my feet.

It works.
This is not the most attractive shoe on the market but works just fine for slumping around the house and going in and out for casual daily business--to the store, picking up kids.
A small heel would be better. The sole is very very comfy!!! That's why it is a keeper.

I wear a size 6.5M, so I ordered a 6.5M and the fit was right on the money. The sole is comfortable, but the straps, especially where the buckle sits cuts in a little. Also the straps begin far back, so your entire toe, and then some, hangs out. I was searching for a cute white sandal like in the days of my youth, but this style is far from youthful- more suited for the elderly.

Too narrow -
These are very narrow for a 10W, plus the leather is stiff.

Bass White Marge -
Very comfortable sole but leather comes extremely stiff, maybe due to being dyed on both sides of straps? I have yet to have the time to really try to break them in for fear of blisters from the stiffness of the straps. I do believe they will turn out to be a great summer dress sandle as my replacement for heels, once I get the leather softened!

I ordered a narrow width and still had to pad the bottom and create extra holes to tighten the shoe. I like the shoe, but I wish it had more support and fit better.

Bass "margie"
I think Bass' quality has not been maintained in recent years. This is the second pair of Bass sandals that I have purchased that has the same problem: the first straps nearest the toes are too loose. I had attributed the first pair's problem to the fact that I had order wide - the straps didn't match the width of the shoe base, they seemed disproportionate. This pair has the same problem and I ordered the normal width. I have worn Bass sandals off and on for 25 years and never had this problem until recently.
