I have several pairs of Alegria's wonderful rocker bottoms, clogs and closed backs, but somehow their sandals escaped my notice. I sought to rectify this immediately. This sandal is beautiful on the foot and I barely notice the toe post. I like the level of support for the arch and the rocker absorbs a lot of shock and are very stable. I have an old ankle injury and with these, I am not bothered at all and walk around all day. Another benefit is the small amount of height due to the platform. Love these.

I have to admit to having several pairs of Alergia shoes in the Paloma style which I find to be extremely comfortable. These sandals are no exception. Same great support, same funky styling in a sandal.

I like the sandal; it's very cute. Unfortunately, the right shoe squeeks. I will probably reorder and try again because that's how hard it is to find comfort in my size. Praise Zappos for free shipping.

Love these sandals! They are a bit bulky, but they are amazingly comfortable. The foot bed is so cushiony yet the thickness of the sole feels very substantial. They are very well made and high quality. I had little to no break in time. The Velcro strap is awesome allowing me to adjust the snugness for those fat feet days. I can walk in them all day and my feet feel great. I have also gotten lots of compliments on them and love the multicolored beads. They go with everything!

This is my first pair of Alegria & I'm very happy. Well made, stylish, and very comfortable. I have arch problems & these are quite supportive. I like the fact that you can adjust the strap as I have a narrow foot. Will order this brand again.

The Alegria Carina is without a doubt the most comfortable flip-flop I own. It has the usual comfortable footbed like all Alegrias, the footbed is soft suede so your foot does not sweat, the toe piece does not hurt, and it is just darned cute! I am pretty consistently a 38 in Alegrias, though in some of their sandal styles, I wear a 37. Both the 37 and 38 fit in this one, but I opted for the 38 as I really hate it when your heel is too close to the edge and it looks like you might tip over backwards!

Such comfortable shoes. Bought these to go to a conference and they are like walking on a cloud. I love Alegrias!

I am a relatively new Alegria convert. Love these shoes. I am ordering this Carina sandal in the brown with the turquoise "jewel" on the strap, after receiving the same sandal in the white. (my ONLY white shoe in years!). I love my Palomas and my Belle for the winter. I also have a pair of the Molly sandal in pink, which is comfortable as well. I have had several knee surgeries and also have neck and lower back issues, but these shoes are THE BEST EVER. AT first I thought they were a bit clunky, but once I put them on my feet, I was in heaven. They are softer and more cushioned than my Birks, and the wedged models make me taller, which, at 5'4" is a real benefit. Try them, you will be pleasantly surprised.

I have never been able to where flip-flops because they always hurt the area between my toes. The Alegria Carina does not do that and I'm so happy to finally find flip-flops that I can wear when we go to all-inclusives and on cruises! They do not provide as much arch support for my high arches as Danskos and they run just a "smidge" narrow if I have them on too long but they will do. Love the little pirate decoration, too. I will be ordering more!

Shoes are very comfortable and they run a little big than my usual size. I normally wear a 7 but ordered 6-6 1/2. If you want a good walking shoe, these are the ones.

The Carina sandal is my second pair of Alegria footwear. I particularly like the soft footbed, the rocker toe and the stable heel. I'm a fan of toe post style sandal and found these comfy with no break in period. These are cute (not an easy accomplishment with velcro style closures) and the multi color beading steps them up fashion wise.

I love these shoes! They are so comfortable and are a true fit for me. The arch support is great. I really enjoy that I can wear them with any color because of the beautiful beads on the shoe---makes it a little bit different from just a plain white shoe. I have gotten so many favorable comments every time that I wear these, and I wear them SO often because they are comfortable and match almost anything! You will not go wrong with these shoes.

These sandals are so comfortable. I have problems with my feet and have had a hard time finding comfortable shoes that last more than a couple of hours. I wore these when I hosted a baby shower and my feet didn't start hurting until about 6 hours after being on my feet constantly.

This sandal offers comfort to those of us with bad feet and sore backs. I recently had a hammer toe corrected, as well as a ganglion cyst removed on one foot and this is the only type of footbed that gives me relief. This is my 4th pair of Alegria sandals.

I love my Alegrias, best shoes I have ever worn. These Carinnas go with every thing, even for dress up for Church. I have several other Alegrias and love all of them. I am retired and wish I new about these before. Buying them from Zappos is the best. If you don't like them send right back at Zappos expense.

Great service as to be expected from Zappos. Had to return several pairs before selecting these. Great shoes, can walk forever in them. I wear an 8 and ordered 38 and they fit perfectly. Received lots of compliments and summer not even started so you can see I have worn them despite the cool weather here this spring.

Once again Zappos has exceeded my expectations. I tried these sandals on at a local merchant. I then came home and checked Zappos for them. They were priced cheaper and I had them the next day. Gotta love Zappos even more than I did before. I order something almost monthly now and I am never disappointed. Thanks again Zappos.

Love these sandals. Casual or dressy, very comfortable, a little heel height but not too high or too flat.

Amazing sandal! The only sandal I can wear all day with no feet pain or swelling while pregnant! Haven't missed a day since I bought them! Normally wear a 38 in Alegria, got a 39 and they fit perfect.

These are the most comfortable sandals I have ever had. In January I purchased from Zappos the Alegria Dana for work. I am not a nurse but had to stand at a trade show for 4 days and they were fabulous. I did not have any problem with my feet hurting and it made my plantar fasciitis completely go away. I knew I had to buy a sandal for the summer and these are just as GREAT!!

I love the look and feel of this shoe. First time that I wore them, I wore them for an entire day and night...no break-in time needed. Very cute as well as comfortable - the beading looks awesome. I will definitely purchase more shoes from this line. I bought this shoe in my regular size and it fit perfectly!

So what does this peep-toe-platform-pump addicted girl wear for foot relief? Alegria shoes! These are hands down the best designed, comfortable, and fabulous value shoes. They are WAY better than Birks. After I broke my foot these are all I wore for months after the cast came off. This little starfish number is so unique and adorable. Very regrettably I have to exchange for a different style though. I have very wide feet and in this thong sandal the outer edge of my foot rubbed on the side decorative stitching. I see the Kongoh thong has a footbed that is raised a bit higher above the stitching so I am going with those. I ask you... where can you get a THONG sandal that has an arch support to correct plantar fascia? I also bought new insoles for my Alegria Kleo sandals. I love this Alegria feature! For the cost you can refresh your last year's Alegrias! Just pop out the insoles and look on the bottom for the number to order and you will get a perfect replacement.

Love these shoes; same comfort as all Alegria. The light pewter grey goes with everything. The width is adjustable with hidden velcor.
