I bought these sandals thinking they were the original EXERCISE SANDALS!! Oh no. The foot bed has nothing for the toes to grab on to! It is smooth, flat, not molded into foot shape at all. So very disappointed.

One of the shoe is opening the button on top all the time.

I bought this a couple of weeks ago. They look very pretty but very heavy to walk about in. The left leg is much tighter than the right, Definitely not what it used to be... I really used to love the original

These are not the original sandals. There is no toe bump. However, these shoes are comfortable, but the buckel on the left shoe continues to pop open. How can I get these shoes replaced? They are only a few months old!

I expected comfort and convenience to go along with stylish and cute when I bought these shoes but I only got the stylish and cute part. My foot would slide around and it was too much work to try to keep the shoes on when walking. It would either come off by me walking out of it or it would slide off. There are no contours for your feet to rest in, just super slick surface that makes for very bad shoes.

My sisters and I wore these sandals back in the 1970's and 1980's. I have looked for years for these and could not find them. The design of these shoes have changed. The toe bar is not included in the current style. The heel of the shoe is not as concaved as the "real" original. The strap is off. It seems that it has been moved forward, toward the top of the ties. In the "real" original ones, the strap was at least an inch back nearer the arch. I will keep these and give them a chance. I just hope I have not thrown away my money on these. Please bring back the "real" original design. Keep this design if you must, but go back to what made these shoes popular in the first place.

I went to order a new pair and 11 is the biggest size. I need 11.5 . The toe bar is gone so I went to the drafting board. Mechanical drafting in school paid off all I'm using is the top strap .

I had the wooden Dr. Scholls "exercise" sandles back in the 1980s. The foot bed was much more contoured back then with a much more pronounced hump between the ball and the toes which helped your toes to grip the shoe with each step making the shoe both more comfortable and easier to keep in place on the foot during the forward stride. These are not as pronounced and not much of grip for the toes. Please bring back the Vintgage original style from the 70' and 80's and the Blue is not the original Navy blue.

Definitely not red. More of a faded pink/orange in color. Disappointed to say the least. I gave this shoe 2 stars because , though I love the shoe , part of it was the color. I have bought the rubber soled red Dr Scholls in the past and it was a bright red, so after buying this wooden soled shoe which is more expensive, I thought the color would be the same. IT IS NOT.

The fit was narrower than expected, but by moving the buckled to widest the fit worked for my average foot. Soles being smooth wood felt fabulous but sandals just too heavy overall being solid wood. My fault I should have thought that through.

I ordered the red Original sandals. I was excited to revisit my childhood when I wore out a blue pair. The color of the sandals is misrepresented. Instead of red, the sandals are orange, nowhere near red. Very disappointed and will be returning them.

The old style had a more definite dip near the toes and a larger rounded ball to grip.
I almost fell down the stairs trying them on .
Not the same as the original.
I felt very unsteady walking in them .
I am returning.

I was so excited when these shoes returned I wore them many years ago and loved them. I ordered a size 9 1/2 and apparently they don't come in size 9 1/2 even though that size was listed, they sent a size 10 and they are too long. The first time I wore them four brads came out of the holes but I had already wore them so did not return them.

My Over All review of these Sandals are low, they Are NOT the Original as stated, doesn't have the toe indentation as the Originals, Nor does it have the Original Buckle. I would NOT refer my friends to this sandal, overpriced for what you receive.

These shoes are NOT the same as the original ones. I know. I wore the original ones for over 40 years--until Dr. Scholl's went exclusively to synthetic soles. The "insole" of this wooden version is flatter, with less arch support, than the original ones, and the leather piece is wider, sticking into and causing blisters on the top of my big toe. Was great to see the wooden soles, but unfortunately not the old pattern.

The shoes are extremely expensive, once you could buy them at a drugstore, really too expensive for me. The soles wear down really cheap. Yes, when walking the strap can come loose and very dangerous.
