Customer Reviews Wolky Pichu

This is my third pair of Wolky shoes but these by far are my favorites. I usually need a wide fit but because they are adjustable I have no problem in the width. They are light, soft and require no breaking in period. They will be my go to sandal all summer long. I had a total knee replacement in March and have tried many different brands but this one is perfect. I will watch for sales so that I can get another pair in a different color.

This sandal is so comfortable that you forget you are wearing shoes! I thought it might look "clunky" since I have such skinny ankles, but they are stylish and I have had many compliments.

Perfect fit for my long, low volume fit. Nicely cushioned, flexible, adjustable. Was looking for a walking sandal that wouldn't aggravate my bone spurs and this one fits the bill perfectly. I also like it's look--not for everyone, but totally works for me.

I decided to return these because I was looking for something a bit more stylish. I have this same shoe in black and have worn it for years. I ended up going with the Ecco 2 strap plateau because it is so stylish! These would have been so much more comfortable and probably would last for several years though.

Comfortable out of the box (which, sidenote: HOW did I allow myself to reach this age without insisting on comfort out of the box before?! Why did I spend so much time accepting as normal incapacitating foot pain from shoes. Dumb, Melissa.). And the blue ones with the white soles in particular are just adorable and quirky -- not as "orthopedic" looking as some other comfortable shoes are. Adjustable where needed (across toe and vamp), structured where needed as well (heel strap doesn't adjust). Like them a lot.

I have 3 pairs of Pichu sandals. So comfortable. Great for traveling when there's lots of walking involved.

Lovely sandals but even though they were the same size as my last pair of Wolky's which are probably 10 years old, they are very narrow and I probably should have gotten a 42 instead of 41. They are definitely much smaller.

This shoe is so cute! The right shoe fit perfectly and the left was completely...wierd. So sorry.

Sadly, these did not work for me, the strap across the toe dug into my skin. Ouch!

Love this shoe! Feels like a little slice of heaven on my feet - straight out of the box. The footbed is softer than other Wolky sandals, and I feel zero pressure points on my otherwise cranky feet. Will look to buy other colors. Bravo Wolky - thank you!

Love these sandals! They were comfortable from the moment I put them on and stayed that way all through a day of heavy walking.

These are fabulous shoes. Very comfortable for walking. They do run a half size small in my experience. I ended up going with a different color, only because for my needs this color was shinier than I wanted.

I needed a sandal with a stiffer, thicker sole because of the beginnings of hammer toe. This shoe works wonderfully! The pain is gone and the style is cute, comfortable, and has great velcro straps for adjustments. Love it!

This is a great sandal, comfortable and strangely good looking for such a clunky sandal. It is adjustable in all ways and so instantly comfortable. the Velcro, which always shows a bit on these kinsman of shoes, blends in with the color of the straps. I tried them in a lovely shade of blue, but the Velcro was black and looked horrible where it showed. The multi-color is very useful.

Love this sandal! Comfortable from moment I put it on until the end of the day. Great for walking. Does not bother my sensitive feet.

This shoe saved my vacation and the Zappos customer service representative answered all my questions and expedited my order. I had purchased a pair of Teva sandals from another store and tried them out as my daily wear shoe the week before my trip and my feet and legs ached and I knew that I had to purchase something else. I have flat narrow feet and a fused toe joint on my left foot. I need shoes with a spongy foot bed and thick soles. The adjustable straps allowed me to fit the shoes to my narrow feet. Thanks Zappos!

I just ordered my 2nd pair of Wolky Pichu. This sandal rocks! As some of the other reviewers describe, I too, deal with foot pain at times. Plantar Fasciitis and heel spurs. I know that these conditions will be alleviated with some weight loss, but guess what...hard to lose weight when exercising causes foot pain. Vicious cycle. So why does this sandal rock? Simply put, they have helped me break the vicious cycle. The comfort cannot be beat, cushions in the right places and when I am walking, my feet stay cool. Nothing worse than hot, hurting feet in sweaty sneakers...nasty. I did have a 1 day break-in period...small blister on my one pinky toe....nothing I couldn't handle. At 40 years old, I do not feel as though these look old-lady-y at all. In fact, I feel proud that I have enough wisdom and sense to be comfortable when those young 20-somethings are in their platform stilettos...I just know their dogs are screaming! Love you Wolky and thank you for the slimmed down footbeds!

Very happy. Exactly as I expected them to be. Did need some breaking in for me, but that is not meant as a complaint. This is my second pair of Wolky sandals and I will buy more in the future. As for style, I am at the point where comfort outweighs any other consideration when buying shoes.

Very comftable right out of the box. Wore them all day at work on concrete floors. Felt so good I ordered another pair of Wolky's in a different style.

I purchased the red Wolky Pichu's and like them so much I ordered another pair in black. Really cute, extremely comfortable and the red is actually a deeper color than it looks like in the photo that I like even better. They are totally adjustable so can customize the fit.

I like these sandals okay, but it took me a while to find the perfect adjustment of the straps and then some clod stepped on my foot and ripped the sandal off and I had to start all over again. I wish there were a way to mark the perfect adjustment for all time. Otherwise, great sandals, stylish and comfortable.

I tried on 9 pairs of sandals. This was the only one of the bunch that fit well enough to keep. I have flat feet, bunions, Morton’s neuroma, calluses and other foot issues, as well as a bad knee and other structural problems. I realize I’m asking a lot from my footwear. I need adjustable straps, good support and cushioning. These provide those things better than others I’ve tried. One of the consistent problems with other styles was that in order to secure the ankle strap tight enough to keep the sandal from flapping or my foot from slipping forward, the top strap Velcro only connected with about half of the other side, which wasn’t enough to be really secure. These make nearly full contact, and come up high enough toward my ankle to feel secure yet comfortable. I wore these for the first time yesterday, all day, including a trip to farmer’s market, and they were fine. They’re also very attractive and versatile, looking equally good with jeans or skirts. I could probably even get away with wearing them with plain toed stockings, since they almost look more like a shoe than a sandal. They aren’t as cushy underfoot nor as soft inside as I’d prefer, but though I was afraid the edges would be scratchy or the inside would rub, they were no problem. They’re also lighter weight than some others. I’m hoping they’ll hold up well. The last sandals I really liked with Velcro straps became unwearable because the Velcro lost its grip so they didn’t stay on securely.

I have a wide foot and these are quite wide. They differ from one foot to the other--the left one is fine, the right one is very loose. The heel strap does not adjust so the only way to compensate for this is by tightening the toe and ankle straps which are velcro--there are limits to this. I have a low arch and these have virtually no arch. They are comfortable and stylish, but I will probably have to go to a shoemaker to try and tighten up the right shoe.

I ordered two pairs, one in 41 and one in 40. They were completely different in fit, color and structure. The 41 was wide (I have a wide foot) and the 40 was narrower. The color of the 41 was true cognac, the 40 was dark brown. The heel strap is not adjustable, so one depends on the velcro strap and velcro toe strap to hold you in. These are light weight and attractive, but the sizing is inconsistent. I am flat footed and there is absolutely no arch support.

I broke my 3rd metatarsal and needed to get a pair of sandals with less flexible soles. I ordered the Wolky Rio and Jewel as well and liked the Pichu better. The footbed is different and even though they were all the same size, these felt right. The style of the others made it feel like my toes were falling off the edge. The black leather is really nice. They were comfortable right out of the box and straight to an event where I stood and walked around on grass and woodchips for several hours without my feet or body bothering me.
