Somebody call a Doctor. These are Dr. No Souls. They are not the same and are absolutely painful to wear. Solution: Don’t buy them or wear them. I wasted my money.

Shoes previously fit my size. Too big now. Don't sell size 4-1/2".

Wanted to love but these classic shoes but they cause blisters you'll never forget. They are hard and stiff and the leather tore my feet apart. They will collect dust now in my closet. Life is too short for shoes that hurt your feet this much.

The only thing wrong with this shoe was the color. The shoe was orange not red. The photo is red, but the shoe was not even close. I wanted the original red Dr. Scholl’s that I wore decades ago. If you don’t have that shoe, don’t advertise that you do!

I returned this item because the color was not red. I ordered red, and the receipt said red, but it was not the Dr. Scholl’s red. The color in the photo is red, but the shoes are not. I’d be happy to buy a pair, if they are the traditional red color.

I came here to figure out how, after reading multiple instructions and viewing many videos, three college educated adults could not figure out how to adjust the strap and buckle on top! However after reading all the negative quality reviews I'll just be returning. Sad about the newer quality, I had such high hopes of looking like my cool aunts in the 70s!

I purchased these sandals expecting them to be exactly like they original ones I purchased over 35 years ago. I was truly disappointed. The toe grip and arch support are non existent and the leather strap is thin and cheap. I still have and wear my ORIGINAL pair and the difference between the two is dramatic. I would not waste the money on these if you are truly looking for an original pair of Dr. Scholl's sandals. Quite a bit of money to pay for a sandal that feels cheap and has no foot support what so ever.

They are nothing even close to the sandals in the 80s. They are extremely heavy, not comfortable. Don't purchase them if you had a few pair of these in earlier years.

They are the most uncomfortable shoes I've ever worn. I am so disappointed. Wish I never bought them.

The fit was fine, the size was fine, but these are NOT the Dr. Scholl's from our childhood. I loved my clogs when I was a kid. As I recall, I was able to walk in them easily without the shoe clomping or flopping. I was able to hold them onto my foot with the toe ridge. These new "original collection" clogs do not have the same toe ridge to grip the shoe. They do not have the arch. These have a small ridge between the big toe and others and the rest of the foot bed is largely flat. I could NOT figure out how to walk in these without either dragging them as I walked or flip-flopping them with each step, which with a wooden shoe sounds more like "flip-clonk, flip-clonk!" I thought I was going to be a trail-blazer and bring these babies back in style. But it looks like I'll be exchanging them for something more wearable. :-(

I bought these a year ago and couldn't walk in them so never wore them. The toe grip is gone and the wood is as smooth as marble. Today I got them out and decided I would figure them out. Alas, I still can't walk in them. It's like, comical. I just left my office to pick up a coffee and was walking at the pace of a Geisha. I was so excited to bring Dr Scholl's back into my life, but these are just so disappointing. I am leaving this review so people will know! Cute if you don't have to walk more than two steps! Otherwise, stay away!!!

Cute, but after wearing briefly just 3 times, my plater fascia became inflamed (never happened before with my hasbeens or any other wooden clog or shoe). They don't accept returns or exchanges even if slightly worn for one week. Bummer...

The shoe is low quality and has Velcro and no arch support unlike the originals.

The sandals are a great classic, but this is not RED. It is salmon color and a far cry from RED please change the description of your product.

size and fit were fine. But this isn't red. It is coral. And I love zappos so I hate to say something bad, but I wanted the Dr. Scholl's of the past and spent money for that. (Amazon has a version for $40 less, but has plastic soles and not the original, as this claims to be.) The sole is wood, but doesn't have the "exercise grip" Not much arch support.
Sorry, just not as pretty. Feels like a chunk of wood on my foot.
I'll be returning them. :(

I bought 2 adorable versions 6 months ago and they are absolutely unwearable. The wooden soles are far too heavy and the toe hold doesn't. As other reviewers have reported here, you cannot keep them on. I took them to the shoe repair shop to see if we could make the buckle tighter. Nothing's worked. KateSpadeCompany, please! Fix this design flaw!

I have two pairs of these sandals still in their boxes, now collecting dust. Was excited to relive an old favorite but found out the "new" design of the classic wooden sandal has little to no toe (hhump) support, leaving the sandals to fly off my feet when walking. They are impossible to walk in!

very disappointing , does not measure up to the original in any way, heavier, inferior toe grip, inferior clasp which no longer accommodates my Dr. Scholl decorations.

They fit well enough, but the buckles pop open when walking which renders the shoes useless. Perhaps I just received a defective pair?

Terribly hard and embarrassing to keep the shoe on. The adjusting buckle does not have a setting suitable for my average foot. The last hole is too tight and the next hole makes it too wide and the shoe won't stay on. It is too great a fall and accident risk to keep such an iconic and beautiful shoe. I did buy another version of this sandal elsewhere. It fits well. I think one is just too slippery.

I bought these several months ago from DSW but did not try to wear them until July. When I tried to adjust them to the width of my foot, for the first time, the clasp broke. It's unfixable. Now I'm stuck with one working shoe and one that is unwearable - without having worn them at all and they are un-returnable because of the time lag. Really disappointed in the quality - do not recommend.
