Very comfortable and stylish. Easy to walk in. I liked them so much I have them in two colors.

These are great walking sandals for summer. They don't have a great amount of support, but I've logged miles at a time in them and haven't had any issues. They rubbed a little the first time I wore them, but by the third wear they were broken in and good to go.
My only dislike style-wise is that the big top strap does make them look a little bulky, so I do prefer them with pants over shorts/skirts/cropped pants.

These have a very comfortable footbed, but after wearing them for two minutes around my apartment I found they rubbed both toes, so they are being returned.

These seemed comfy except that the toe ring rubbed my foot. I decided that I'd better send it back rather than wear them and get a blister. They might work for someone else.

What a comfortable and cute sandal, no need to break it in. I've been wearing them a lot here in San Francisco and there perfect for walking around. The toe loop could be a lower towards the foot, but it still holds the toe in place, loosely but it works. I recommend them.

These sandals are so cute! I love the style. They were not cheap, and they are comfortable as far as flat sandals go, but the big down-side is that the sole lining (the part in contact with the bottom of your foot) is not genuine leather, and gets slippery and sweaty in hot weather. I would have hoped for something more absorbent - but then maybe I've been spoiled by my Birkenstocks.

Great quality leather. Color excellent. Nice comfort with HUGE exception of the big toe! Have to return because the strap around the big toe on both shoes isn't made correctly. When I walk it rubs against inside of big toe and I know it WILL cause blisters. So sad to return. I typically LOVE this brand of shoes! They always--until now--- have a super fit & are awesome quality for the price.

The toe ring was too wide for my toes. I love how soft the leather was, but the toe ring did not work for me.

Lovely color, soft leather! A super cute and versatile shoe. I only wish it came with a bit of a heel.

I have very wide feet, so my options for any cute footwear are limited. These were not available in wide at the time of purchase but I gave them a shot. They fit well; if anything they are a tiny bit too narrow for me, but the footbed and the leather are so supple and comfortable, and the straps really cradle my foot well so they aren't flopping off the sides. The nude color is not the perfect shade for my fair skin, but that is a minor issue. I mean, the leather really is so soft and lovely.

I was looking for a yellow sandal but this one is a darker yellow. Almost a mustard color. Pretty, but not what I was looking for. The style is super cute and it fits well.

I purchased these initially in spring 2012 in Chocolate and absolutely loved them. I was hoping to find something similar this year, and was thrilled to see that the Gia sandal was back for another season. I purchased them in Chocolate and Sand this year and was not disappointed! The leather starts out a little stiff, but quickly gets soft and comfortable.

I ordered these in 8W. I have not a wide foot and high arch. This shoe was not wide enough to wear comfortably, particularly on hot summer days when my feet swell.

I wear 13M, so length is important. The foot bed is standard, I would have preferred it to be just a quarter of an inch longer. But not heel or toe hang.
The straps are fine, not too tight or loose. They're comfortable, I have flat feet, I walked in them for a length of time, no problem. The sandal has a 1/4 inch heel, that helped in support.

See photo, these shoes seem cheaply made. There was a weird leather piece that was coming unglued. This is not a deal-breaker by itself, but the shoe was neither comfortable nor cute. The top strap being velcro, I tried it nice and snug, but the strap and buckle dug into my foot. I loosened it, and the shoe slipped and flapped when I took steps. It looked boxy on my foot, not flattering. If your foot is a different shape, tho, it might be nice for you. I got the Ezra green color, and the colors are very pretty.

very stylish and comfortable however the foot bed is not leather and after only 2 wears of walking in the city the visible foot bed/innersole ripped :( I expect better durability and quality in a leather sandal.

These shoes were adorable, just what I was looking for. But the top strap did not fit and created a weird, uncomfortable hump. I had to return.

Know that this shoe is made in China, the leather is not comparable to shoes made in Italy or Spain. Very stiff and the insole is made made faux leather. It was true to size in width and length.

Very cute style. I wanted to love them but didn’t fit my foot right. Because of toe thing my foot wouldn’t go far enough forward, therefore heel was barely on back of foot bed. No arch support

I'm 40 and measure 7.5 wide. I tried both the 7.5w and the 8w, they both fit. I really thought they looked beautiful online, however on my foot-didn't love it. The wide band accentuates my wide foot. Also not a fan of how the big toe digs in-between the second toe area. I would keep them, however I know I won't wear them since I have more comfortable shoes.

Too loose on my feet. Couldn't make them tighter. My feet are on the narrow side and also flat, so that didn't help.

These were quite large on my feet. I do have a slightly more narrow and flatter foot possibly and there was no way to get them tighter. Had to return.

These look better online than they do in person. The straps were too wide around the sides of my feet and I felt like they looked...blah. They were just sandals, nothing special, and kind of loose looking/frumpy. I returned them. However, the leather was very nice.

For many years I wore and loved these sandals, but I gave them up two summers ago. They fit great. They look great. They are some of the most comfortable sandals I've ever worn. They look great with everything. I had them in black and brown, and at one time I had three pairs at one time (two black, one brown). But they only last for one summer. I don't know about you, but if I find good fitting shoes, I buy multiples and I wear the crap out of them. And you can only wear sandals for a limited portion of the year. So I lived in those sandals. Even with three pairs, they only lasted the summer. It's because the front of the shoe begins to wear away with many wears. I also had a strap break on a pair after it had come to the end of its life. If only they'd make these more durable I could buy them again and give them the five stars they deserve.
