Love. These shoes are so comfortable and very cute. I bought them to wear on my upcoming two week trip to Europe. They are so comfortable I don't foresee any issues with them. They fit true to size.

I love these sandals! I was looking for a comfortable walking sandal that didn't look "orthopedic" and these fit the bill! Except for having to deal with the buckles for a minute, they're great!

As another person put it, the soft leather straps are like butter. It's stylish, and made for walking miles and miles on a warm summer's day. I don't want to take them off.

I hesitated over these shoes for weeks. I couldn't fathom paying a lot for sandals and it simply would not compute. Two things were true, though. I needed comfortable waking sandals for travel, and I still wanted to look cute. Once I finally bit the bullet, I was thrilled to find that these are the most comfortable shoes I've ever owned. Yes, the buckles take time, but the comfort and style make it worth it. I wear a 7.5 and ordered the 38, and there is ample room at the toe, so much so that I thought I'd better go down a size. Trying on the 37 showed that there was still ample room at the toe, but not enough width. These shoes went on with no break-in period and allowed me to walk all over a city for hours with no fatigue. These shoes were an investment, and money well spent.

I wore these for 10 days this summer walking around Paris and London; they are as comfortable as sneakers, nice looking shoes, and cute with my summer dresses. They have very soft straps: no uncomfortable rubbing on the ankle. The fit on the medium width is slightly wide for me, but overall I am very pleased.

Got them in April 2011. Wear them more than anything else. The color goes with everything and clashes with nothing! Wear them with capris, shorts, skinny jeans, dresses, tights... As always, because they are Ecco they were comfortable to wear from the start.

This is the most comfortable sandal, with the best foot support.
The only complaint I have is keeping the straps centered on the foot.

These are very comfortable for shoes that are also stylish. The leather is very soft. They look modern with shorts, dresses, and pants. The only problem is that the insole is annoyingly slick. However, I just found some drug store gel insoles with cloth surface that do not show,and make these sandals feel better.

These shoes rock. I took them out of the box to Europe where we walked all day every day. No break in required. So comfortable and so stylish. They look great with shorts and dresses. I normally wear a 6.5M and the 36 fit perfectly.

Really liked the look, but there's just too much leather for what I need. Am headed to the tropics, and the shiny footbed was a bit sticky, too. Not a big deal. The soles are extremely comfy, though. Would be a great shoe for summer in Europe. I wear a 7 almost always, and the 38 was perfect size. Biggest issue for me was slight pressure by one of the straps against a bunion. Just couldn't risk a blister. Love Ecco, but this one didn't work for me.

I love these! They are so worth the price. They ft true to size, took no breaking in, and are incredibly comfortable. I walk alot in the summer and these immediately became my favorite sandals. They go just as well with jeans, skirts, and shorts.

I own at least "a hundred" Ecco shoes. I have the gladiator from last year so the new one was not on my immediate list. However, when I tried on my friend's new Gladiator Sandal II, it could not be ignored. This is the very best Ecco sandal ever made. I now own "a hundred and two" Ecco shoes. Thanks for adding such great shoe to the line.

If you need to do a lot of walking and want a stylish, comfortable sandal this one is for you. Having just returned from Paris, this is the only shoe I wore. I was on my feet 12 hours each day! I wore it at home for about a week prior to my trip and had no issues with blisters. You get what you pay for.

These are high quality soft leather, but just a little too narrow for my feet. I love the look and the soles are comfortable and fairly sturdy without being clunky. I have wide feet, but try them if you are more average. They are not narrow, just not wide.

These shoes were wonderful. Fit was good for my wide foot and they were light as a feather. However, I am 75 and did not feel well supported by them so I will be returning them. Love Zappos service, it's the tops.

I love these sandals. The leather is very soft and is the only pair of sandals I have ever had where the straps do not dig or bother my toes. I expected to not like them and send them back like every other pair of sandals so I was pleasantly surprised. Also Zappos upgraded my free shipping and I got them the next day! These are worth every penny.

Comfiest sandal ever! I can wear these sandals all day with no rubbing, blistering etc. Sheer comfort. The leather is extremely supple and the foot bed is supportive. I have very challenging feet (flat footed, bunions, hammer toes) and these sandals are perfect for me.

Greatest shoes of all time. I have messed up feet - high arches, bunions, plantar fasciitis - but I live in Chicago and I'm only 25 so my shoes need to be super comfy and fashionable. These fit the bill perfectly, though they did take some time for the leather to stretch a bit and get soft (maybe 2 weeks). Love them.

This much for sandals -- crazy! But I needed something that would go with nearly everything I own and hold up under (literally) miles of chafe-free daily walking on my vacation. These are soft as butter, they look great, and the non-slippery sole is fantastic for navigating uneven cobblestone streets. No breaking in necessary.

Great shoes. Look great and are really comfortable which is hard to find in a sandal. I have the Gladiator I and love them and decided to try these, glad I did.

I love, love, love these sandals. The upper leather and soles are soft and they were comfortable from the moment I put them on my feet. I ordered these for a trip to Europe in a couple of weeks. No break-in is needed. They are super comfortable and I have already received many compliments on them.

I ordered these shoes yesterday afternoon in my iPhone and they were delivered this morning at 10:00 am. It's now late afternoon and I haven't taken them off. They look fabulous and are the most comfortable sandals I've ever worn. They are casual or dressy and I will be wearing them to a late afternoon summer wedding. I have a slightly wide foot and ordered up a size.
