Customer Reviews Sam Edelman Gigi

I am generally a size 8.5 or 9 with a wider foot. These were too narrow for my feet and the 9 was almost a bit short...so they run a bit small. In the DV by Dolce Vita 'Archer' sandals I found a 9 worked and they were much better looking than these.

I am returning these shoes because I was hoping that my wide feet could fit into this pair. It is so hard to find stylish sandals in wide sizes! I tried these on while walking on carpet and on tiles and here are my conclusions: On the negative side, the T strap is so soft and loose that my feet end up shifting as I walk. On the plus side, the soles are softer than most flat sandals. I can actually feel some cushion with these shoes. However, I will have return these due to my wide feet. Otherwise, I would recommend for those lucky folks with normal size feet.

This is a great sandal looks wise, but I just thought it looked and felt cheap. I'm returning them.

I relied on the 5 star reviews and boy were they off (for me) - my daughter and I both tried these and found the thong too wide, stiff and basically painful. Look cute, that's about it.

Very cute sandal but the footbed is extremely narrow and the toe thong is uncomfortable.

Super cute sandals. However, I am really surprised no one mentioned the way these sandals fit between the toes. The t-strap, where it is attached to the sole, is flat (you can see it in the pictures; I was not paying attention so I did not see it at all). In all of the similar sandals I've owned, this part of the strap was sewn into a tube-shaped stem. In this sandal, because it is flat, it ends up fitting really awkwardly between my toes. The strap is too wide and it ended up rubbing against the skin and giving me blisters within minutes of wearing the sandals. I noticed them fitting awkwardly right away, but they are so cute, I decided to keep them. Too bad. I'll try wearing them again, or maybe I'll take them to shoe repairs and see if they can sew the edges of the strap together into a narrower strap between the toes. Sigh. Just beware. Oh, and regarding sizing, if you normally are between sizes, buy the larger one. No need to go a full size up.

Very cute sandals but it was uncomfortable between my toes so had to return. Black boa pattern is nice.

I typically wear an 8.5 but had to go up to a 9 in these. They still didn't look right, so I sent them back.

I bought this same style last season in a zebra print and was looking forward to these. I had to return them because the toe strap is rather thick and rubbed as soon as I tried them on.

These shoes are really good looking and the pony hair is good quality. But the strap that goes between your toes is much wider than other thongs so it presses against your toes. It is rough fabric so I know it would kill my feet. I returned them.

Bought this sandal as I have a wide foot and most sandals don't accommodate. The base of the shoe at the ball and toe of the foot is cut to fit someone with a pointy toed foot, versus a flat across toed foot. Therefore, I felt my toes were falling off the edge of this shoe. Better than another pair that I had tried and returned. Also, the shoe was a little loosey goosey even when I used the last hole on the ankle strap.

I really wanted to keep this pair of sandals. Unfortunatly, after trying 2 different sizes, I am returning them. Love the style and color.

Sadly having to send back. The "pad" looks padded in the photo but was too hard to walk on making my feet hurt too much from the second I put them on and walked across the room. This may not bother some but I knew it was a deal breaker for me. Also the strap/holes were very difficult to manage. Too bad because they are really cute.

No foot support at all - returning

I have been looking for a plain brown leather T-strap sandal in a D width for years (like five years or more). Sadly, these sandals aren't a true D, as both my big toes and my little toes hang halfway off the side edges of the sole because it curves in so sharply. It looks terrible. Buh bye little sandal. My hopes were high, but we were not meant to be together.

These shoes had such promise, but look terrible on the foot. Listen to everyone else if you're going to try them-- order a half size or a whole size up. I typically wear a 5.5 in sandals and the 6.5 fit (6 was too small). I have medium width feet, definitely not wide but not narrow, and I could tell my toes were going to peek off the side of the footbed since the footbed is so narrow towards the ball of the foot. All it would take is just a smidge more room or width on the outer part of the foot. So sadly, these were a bust.

Per reviews, I ordered a half size larger. The shoe fits the length of my food, but it is narrow. I have narrow to medium feet, the sides of my feet are hanging over the sole! When I walk, my pinky toe hits the ground. I am not sure if sizing up can help this as the length works.

Very cute, but very very narrow! I ordered my normal size 13 and it was both to small and to narrow

I have several pairs of Gigi sandals in all different colors in the same size I ordered here. On this pair, the straps were extremely tight and not flexible. I am returning.

This style has an odd fit. No matter what size I order, my toes hang off the front of the footbed. I can't find any size to fit me properly, so I'm returning all.

The shoes are very narrow compared to other regular width sandals. Returning them due to that fact. My foot is over the edge slightly on the sides. Cute sandals if you have a very very narrow foot. Foot bed is cushioned nicely.

The gold color and snake pattern is pretty, but I had to return these. The size was right, but when I walked my toes got pushed forward and over the front. I wear many other thong style sandals that do not do this.

So disappointed! Such a classic sandal, that I would have kept in a heartbeat, but the sole is way too narrow...and I am a medium width. The top of the sole angles down...if your toe line has a distinct slope down, you are good. If your toes is more level across, there not enough width. The sole of the sandal is narrow from mid sole on up.
