Great sandal. I am a true 7.5 but ordered in both a 7.5 and an 8. The 8 was a perfect fit. Beautiful leather and comfortable.

These are surprisingly comfortable. I bought these just before a vacation to Europe and wore them nearly the entire time with no soreness. They are very well made by Frye as usual. I have very thin ankles and I used the last (biggest) hole on the ankle strap, so I would not recommend them if you have thicker ankles.

These sandals were exactly the right color red & are very well made. They are comfortable and secure. The only slight issue is they are a little slippery to walk in but as I'm breaking them in it is less of a problem. I don't usually spend this much money on a sandal but I'm glad I did on these!

These are beautifully crafted sandals, just what you expect from Frye. A little bit expensive but will last for years. True to size. Zappos service is super!

This is a lovely sandal. The leather is beautiful and excellent quality. I have a somewhat narrow foot and the adjustable straps allowed me to have a snug fit. The shoe seems to be a bit narrow but fits my foot perfectly -- not sure it would work for a wider foot. I sized up a half size since I wear a 7.5 or 8. The 8 fits perfectly. Certainly a good choice -- looking forward to wearing this sandal all summer!

Ordered both 7 (my normal size) and 7.5, 7 is just a tad to short so kept the 7.5. Love the quality of their shoes! Great color, will go with everything!

Love Frye boots and have 3 pairs. Comfortable from the first moment I put them on. I ordered the Ali Seam Thong - first in an 8.5 then a 9 but they just fit badly and were uncomfortable. So I ordered the Rachel T with some doubts. They arrived and they are perfect. True size 9 - easy to walk in. Look just great. Very happy.

The construction of this sandal is solid. The leather is beautiful and comfortable very little 'break-in' required. The footbed seemed slightly short. I stuck with the 10 because Frye doesn't offer a 10.5. I have the natural veg tan color and they're beautiful. If you've spent years buying flimsy sandals, do yourself a favor and invest in the Frye Rachels, they're awesome.

UPS just dropped these off ten minutes ago. They are so cute! I ordered them in the Dark Brown...now I am deciding which color to order next. I wear a true size 7 in most shoes (and either 6.5 or 7 in Frye boots) and ordered the 7 in these sandals. I could probably wear a 7 1/2 if I had to but I'm guessing the leather straps will stretch with time and the 7 1/2 would probably flop on my narrow feet.

Great style and quality... very flattering. I wear a true 5.5M and needed the 6M in this sandal. Would consider getting another pair in black if available.

This shoe was well made and very attractive. Unfortunately, it is going back because it is too narrow. I wear 8.5 medium and have never had to order a wide shoe, but in this shoe, the sides of my foot hung over the edge. It was also a bit tight on my instep, although adjusting the straps helped a bit. Due to the high price, I don't think I will try any other sizes, but instead will try to find a different sandal.

I so wanted these! I bought the 10 since my Frye boots are a 10. These ran about a 1/2 to a full size small! My toes hung over the front! :-( Sadly, going back. May try the 11!

Love these sandals, but ordered my usual 8 and toes of one foot were completely off the shoe bed! Exchanged for an 8 1/2 and hope that'll do the trick.

Beautiful, quality sandal that was surprisingly comfortable right from the first time I wore them. They would only be better if they had a little better arch support.

Really nicely made sandle with good ankle adjustment. Design is very stylish. Not much padding and it is really a flat feeling sandle. Runs on narrow side of the medium width.

I really deliberated on which size to get for this sandal. I love the look of it but I have a high instep. I saw one review that said this worked great for their high instep so I ordered by my regular size in spite of all the reviews recommending going up a half size. I'm going to have to exchange it for a half size larger but the sandal is really cute otherwise.

A high quality sandal - all leather and would probably be comfortable after a break-in period and would last many years. Unfortunately I found the 8M too short and too narrow for my 8M feet, so they will go back.

I love the look of these sandals...and I am keeping them! I have a big foot, size 11, and my food doesn't seem to sit perfectly in this sandal. It's like the top isn't quite tight enough to hold my food in place...but I couldn't wear a smaller size. A bit disappointed in the fit...but LOVE the look. The color goes with everything!

These are beautiful sandals! The leather and color are perfect. I had to go up a full size to get the right fit, (I have a pair of Frye heeled sandals in my normal size of 6.5, but I needed a 7.5 in these).

Frye Rachel T Sandal - pretty in bronze veg tan, a bit narrow (baby toe right on the edge) and zero arch support or padding. The leather was stiff and would take awhile to break in I think. They were good quality but shouldn't cost more than my budget. I'm willing to pay more for a shoe or boot, but for a sandal... maybe not. Also ** this may sound weird ** but if your foot doesn't fit the "hourglass" shape of the sole, it may look odd. Will keep trying different sandals. Thanks Zappos!

I really liked these. I have wide feet and was afraid the strap running across it would be too tight, but it adjusts to your foot. The problem is the sole is way too narrow. My feet were hanging off the sides and just looked awkward, even more than most sandals. Sad, I wanted to keep them!

I was surprised that this Frye ran a bit small...about a 1/4 to 1/2 size smaller than marked. It fits me, because I am a small my size, but I have very little to spare in the foot bed, but I am worried the size up will be too big. Normal Frye quality...which is to say wonderful, and comfortable foot bed make it a keeper. Worth the price for a comfortable, good quality sandal. Retro style reminds me of a pair I had longer ago than I care to say. Insert in suitcase, promenade...or a must for the festival girl of today!

I don't know what it is about the Frye Company and its shoes, but this much is certain: I now have eight different pairs (all of varying colors and styles). Additionally, I have never had to return a single pair, nor have I regretted any of the color choices I made. These pair of sandals are no exception. As always, the sandals are true to size, and the tanned red/veg color is absolutely delicious! These sandals are also versatile in that you can dress the sandals both "up" or give them a casual vibe. Above all, I find them to be very comfortable. Frye can do wrong.

After viewing this sandal on another website, I was afraid that the turquoise color would be too green. However, it is exactly the beautiful neutral shade pictured on the Zappos website. The sandal looks fabulous but will require a little breaking in. The buckle especially is stiff and a bit hard to fasten. Order half a size larger than your regular size because the footbed is slightly short as noted by other reviewers.
