Comfortable, and with just enough stretch in the straps. Will wear throughout the summer.

Quite comfy for an inexpensive sandal! I ordered the birch color but have to say they were more on the gray side than I had anticipated from the photo but still looked nice, just not quite as warm as I would have liked. For width, like other reviewers, I think these are a little on the narrow side, which worked for my foot but might not work for others. They are quite flexible and comfortable, except a little pressure between the toes.

I have flat wide feet, and after reading the reviews I decided to order the 11 opposed to my normal size 10. They fit perfectly. If I'd ordered my usual size they would have been too narrow for sure and a little bit to short causing my toes to hang off. After I wore them for a few days they were very comfortable to walk in .
I'd also recommend:

Super cute and mostly comfortable. I'm typically a 6.5 but ordered a 7 based on other reviewers' suggestions. The 7 fit the width of my foot well, but the thong part was tight and uncomfortable. They looked nice but I don't think I'd be able to get past the tightness of the thong between my toes. I wore them around the house for a while but had to return them.

These are great! I was looking for everyday summer sandals that work with capris or a skirt and these fit the bill. I ordered 2 different sizes because I wasn't sure how they would fit, but the fit is right on. I usually wear a 7.5 and the 7.5 is perfect. I am not sure if they will last more than one summer of consistent wearing, but for the price I don't expect them to last forever.

Comfy, cute, and we'll made! I stand all day at work and have found these to be oka for support. I have the black and they fit true to size.

I ordered the 9 in the blue-green (Lagoon) and since here weren't any sizes around it, I crossed my fingers they would work... They did, but not without quirks! As per previous reviews, they're oddly narrow. I have normal width feet, and these make me feel like I have a wide foot. My pinky toe and the outside of my feet slightly protrude over the outside edge. However, the sole has been replaced from the slippery sole to a very grippy sole! Can't even slide my foot on a wood floor unless I use some major muscle! I have to say, I love them, still, they're comfy and extremely cute. (But the part between the toe seems annoying... I'm hoping it wears in, otherwise that will be unfortunate).

Again, as other reviewers noted, these sandals are very narrow (and I also have fairly narrow feet). I ordered size 8 instead of usual 7.5 or 7. Although the width was perfect, since I ordered up, they were a little long and the straps didn't really touch the top of my foot, they were so loose around the toes. Thus 3 stars on "overall." They're definitely cute and comfortable. My reason for 3 stars on "comfort" was I found the strip of leather that goes between the toes to be fairly firm and uncomfortable; I wouldn't want to break them in. It would be great if they could somehow drastically soften that part of the leather. However, I tend to find thong-type sandals to be uncomfortable for that reason anyway, so others may not mind.

I have the Goya sandal from Blowfish and had high hopes for the Granola but the Granola straps are tight across the top of my foot, I have a high arch, and the piece between the toes feels thick. Bummed I'm returning these.

These were very nice shoes, and I wanted to like them. However, I had to return them because they were too narrow. I have a normal width foot and have never had this problem before.

I wanted to like these— great price, simple, etc. But the thong between your toes is so uncomfortable! Really thick, very scratchy. I couldn’t do it. Had to return

I wanted these to work so bad! But alas, with every step, both feet farted. You know what I’m talking about, that oh so wonderful sound that occurs when there’s a poor relationship between the bottom of your foot and the shoe. I even tried some blister powder to see if that would reduce the suction, but no luck. They have to go back.

The piece between the toes on the left shoe was very uncomfortable. Not sure if it was stitched wrong but can't wear them.

Feel was wonderful but they are very pointy at the top which looks absolutely awful. Will send back.

I've had these shoes for a few weeks now and while I think they look cute, they are really uncomfortable. The first day out with them, they tore up both my feet in between my toes and they've given me blisters all over my feet. I've put moleskin on the straps to try and stop that but I shouldn't have to cover the entire shoe in moleskin. They run a full size smaller than usual, so if you purchase them, be aware of that.

There were 2 things I didn't love about these shoes. First, the toe shape. It just didn't fit my feet. I have very square feet and these had a slightly tapered toes shape. Second, I wasn't a fan of the straps on the heel. I felt like there wasn't enough structure or stability to keep my heel in these. If I were to walk quickly, I imagine my heel would slide around. Otherwise, I liked the quality of these for the price and they were true too size. Just overall, not the right fit for me.

I wanted to really like this shoe but the straps fit loosely. Unfortunately, these will be going back.

I always wear a size 7.5 and have a narrow foot, but I needed a size 8 for my feet to fit in these length-wise. They're very cool, and the navy blue color was great, but something about the placement of the toe thong (where it slips between your big toe and index toe was really uncomfortable for me. That's never been an issue for my in my life, so I was pretty disappointed and had to send them back.

cute, but no arch support which won't work for my planned use of wearing them all day as a work shoe.

Not really as comfortable as I would have expected. My other blowfish sandals are great, but these rub on the sides of my feet.

These are cute, but the thong between the toes hurts my toes. I wear thongs all the time in Hawaii, but these need to be wrapped with something. They are also too large for me. I usually wear a 5 1/2 or 6. Other reviewers said these run small, but I don't find that to be the case. I was also surprised at the weight. They are not really heavy, but the cork must be impregnated with something, or else it's synthetic.
