Super comfortable shoes and great look, so much so that I had to order a second pair and I received it the next day. The best online shopping experience I've ever received! Thanks Zappos!

This is simply the most comfortable footwear that I have ever owned. If they come in tan and black leather I will buy those as well.

I actually bought for Israeli Folk Dancing on laminate flooring! Works perfectly! Perfect fit, lightweight, easy to put on and off. Footbed is wonderfully supportive. I also use Dr. Sholl's Arch Support insoles for all the intense footwork, and they fit perfectly!

These are the best shoes ever. I\'ve traveled a lot this year and always with these shoes. Everywhere I go strangers stop to ask me about the shoes. Accommodate my inserts as well. Fabulous.

more Jambu styles! Teva a good second.

These are the most awesome shoes ever. No breaking in. They are between sandals and shoes and have a great cushiony sole. Great lots of compliments! Silver color tone goes with everything. You have to try them!

I love mine. For some reason I thought they\'d be more of a tan suede, but they are a shiny bronze and I\'m happy with that. For me they are very comfortable. I can wear them all day long. My husband, who rarely comments on what I wore, told me how much he liked these shoes the first two times I wore them!

I love my Jambu's! I was a little concerned at first, 1. never hearing of the brand and 2. reading reviews of the "bungy laces" -- but I absolutely love them! They're exactly what I was looking for! The first couple days, the bungy laces were really tight, so I just wore them around the office. Then after a couple days they were fine! Now, I don't even think about it! Great shoe - super light and airy, extremely comfortable - great cushioning. They're like the perfect running shoe that just looks that much cooler than the norm.

I was able to wear these shoes all day long walking and standing, and my feet did not hurt at the end of the day. For this type of shoe, they are very stylish and look great with shorts and capris. I highly recommend them. Of course, Zappos service is the best.

I love these shoes when I saw someone else wearing them and inquired about them. They were unavailable in my locality Zappos sent them out faster than expected and in perfect condition. I ordered a pair of another design and these shoes, as well, came more quickly than expected and exactly as described. Who would've thunk it? Shoes online and they're perfect!

I've worn these shoes about two weeks now and am really enjoying them. Yes, they are kind of hippy, but a little more upscale than my Keens. They are really comfortable right out of the box. I wear a 10N usually. The bungee cord thing allows me to make them fit more snug so the size worked great.

The materials of the shoes are of excellent quality, the only problem I had was that my toe reached the top, and that is only reason for returning them. I tried them on several time hoping that they would somehow grow, just so I could keep them. Zappos was excellent in assisting me with the return.

Love, love, love these shoes. Metallic pewter looks really good. I'm usually a true 8, but returned for an 8 1/2 because my toe felt a tiny bit cramped. So happy with these shoes.

I love these shoes. Fit perfectly, wore perfectly right out of the box. I love being able to adjust the width. These are my new travel shoes, and the bronze complements all my outfits.

Love these! Comfortable from the get go. The lacing insures a custom fit. Used them on a trip to Central America involving hiking. The traction is great. Comfortable footbed. It's not too spongy or too firm. If there is arch support it is not intrusive. I like that. Flexible. My feet are not happy with many shoes but these are great! They look good, too.

Love.these.shoes. I ordered them and received them the very next day. I ordered them in my regular size (7 1/2), but thought they were a bit short, so I ordered them in an 8 and received the next pair the very next day! Customer service at Zappos cannot be beat. The most positive thing about these shoes is that they are very cool because of the exposure on top, yet my feet are covered. I have had many compliments on them and have ordered a pair today for a friend. The cushion is good for my back and my feet and the straps can be adjusted to fit as loosely or as tight as you want them. I do not regret buying them at all and have now become a fan of Zambu and of Zappos!

I just bought my second pair of these shoes (brown and black pair). They are VERY comfortable, light- almost forget I am wearing shoes, made well and fit perfect. I wore them immediatly out of the box with no problem all day long. I wore a shoe lift in one shoe with no problem.

Nice sandal + sneaker alternative when you want comfort of both. Breathes very nice, looks dressier than a sneaker, and provides more support that a sandal. Very happy with purchase.

I bought these in silver and love them. If you are in-between sizes I would recommend ordering a size up, also one of the straps digs into my foot.

Bought these shoes for a trip to SE Asia where I would be walking a lot in a hot, muggy, rainy environment. I ordered several shoes including Tevas and Keens and these were the clear winner. The pewter is a fashionable touch as are the cutouts, and there's more padding in the sole. The upper is all leather and they dried surprisingly quickly after I got caught in the rain. My feet and the shoes never got smelly, and the soles are substantial enough to walk on unpaved areas. They don't offer as much support as a regular shoe but they make up for in how easy they are to pack and wear (they're extremely lightweight and breathable). The bungee cords did not dig into my feet as others have experienced, but I also did not have them cinched tight. Love the heel support and toe coverage on these, much better looking than Keens. I ordered both a full size and half size larger than my usual shoe size and ended up with the half size larger. I got lots of compliments on this shoe and can't say enough good things about it!

This is a handsome, unique-looking shoe, but I agree with reviewers who said that the laces bit into their feet. This also was not a particularly flattering shoe for my large feet.

These are a alittle strange looking but comfortable. I had to get them larger and the lacing does kind of get to your foot. Other then that you might like them the look is cool.

I've received mixed reviews on these. They are bit different from what I would normally get, but I like them. They are comfy, but they do have a bit of a heel. If you are used to flat-footing it, these will take some getting used to. They are pricey and I guess I will have to see if they hold up to warrant that cost! Like others have said, the lace does dig in the foot a bit and readjusting happens for me often due to that. They go higher up on the ankle so be ready for that, too.

Love the look and fit. Just a bit hard to get them on. Once on, they feel good.
