Love the shoe! But when they say they're a barefoot style, they mean it. Can't wear socks with them. My socks stick to the bottom of the shoe and then bunch down into the shoe. Must wear them barefoot.

I'm a fan of Jambu, and this is a perfect summer shoe. That said, I found that there's some sort of underwire that digs into the top of each baby toe, especially the right one. If I'm standing or walking for a long time, it digs in and leaves a beautiful indent on the toe. Still, I like the shoes overall. Full disclosure: I'd ordered the Jambu Alley first but returned them because the strap was a bit bothersome to me. These shoes are easy on and off.

These ran just a bit small for me. I exchanged for a half size larger and it's perfect. Toe box is a small which I think is why I needed to go up a half size. Very comfy shoe but not super supportive. Great shoe for kicking around the house and on errands in the summer. I need good support so I won't wear for days when I'll be doing lots of walking. It is light as air and almost like wearing nothing!

I am a huge fan of Jambu shoes and own several pairs. These shoes are so comfortable, I forget I'm wearing them. They are super light and have a great sole. That being said, I am expecting the materials to wear out sooner rather than later just because it is thin material and I wear them almost every day now that it is summer. I also have to order a 1/2 size up in all Jambu shoes.

Cute shoe, was comfortable and narrow enough to stay on my heel. I'm retuning them because my gait was awkward in them. The sole of the heel juts out behind and kept me from landing my foot comfortably. Very nice otherwise.

I tried two different sizes, the 8.5 (normal size) felt too small and the 9 felt too big in the width but fine in the length. They were comfortable to try on, but the support was not something I could see myself walking to work in (less than a mile). It would have been nice had they had a bit more arch support. I am returning.

I ordered the black pair and really like them. They are comfy to slip on to walk the dog or wear to run errands and can even wear to work on a casual day. They are perfect to wear in warmer weather when my feet sweat because they let air in the sides and the soles can be cleaned with a wipe. Will order another color.

These shoes were too flat! I need just a little more support than they offer. Otherwise, they were cute!

Very comfortable shoe. Feels like it runs wide especially in the toe box. Doesn't appear to have much arch support but I was able to wear to work (6+ hours standing/walking around concrete floors of a pharmacy) without aching feet or back. Feels nice and cool in the Texas heat.

I had this shoe in a different color so I put on and starting wearing immediately without realizing it is bigger (but listed as the same size). If it fit like the other color, it would be five stars.

Exchanging for a size down, I'm a true 7.5 but these don't seem to hold onto my feet - thinking it will only get worse with wear. Not exactly crazy about the toe width (wider than expected) but like the style overall and know these will be my go to slip ons this summer - as long as the 7 works!

The sizes in this shoe are inconsistent. I ordered the shoe in a 9.5 and it was a bit big (heel was slipping out), and I liked it so much I ordered two colors in a size 9. Well, one pair was noticeably bigger than the other, and with both pairs the foot bed felt too small, even though the upper fit well or was even still a bit big. These are very cute on, if they happen to fit your foot better than mine.

These will be great summer slip-on. I am a solid 8.5 but found them a bit small so ordered a 9. That is better.

I wear an 8 1/2 but due to reviews, I ordered a 9. It was too small. Cute shoe, wish it had fit.

I was excited to get these, but they were definitely a half size too small (in length). Cute, though! Hoping to get bigger size.

The length and width are great, but I could not get used to the texture of the footbed. I expected more comfort based on other reviews. These will be returned.

I really wanted to like these shoes, but they just didn't work. The back comes up really far, which ended up being uncomfortable after a few minutes of just standing. The insole seemed to move around as I moved. There was no arch support, which I understand lends to the "barefoot walking" mentality, but when the rest of your foot feels supported, it just didn't feel right. Also, I normally wear an 8, but the 8 was just a little too big. This is the second pair of Jambus that I have bought - the first ones I thought I loved, but while out on a hike they started to dig into my foot. In the end, they fell apart pretty quickly. I should have listened to my gut and not bought this pair of Jambus either.

I bought Jambu Spin-Too Barefoot flats to replace Patagonia Maha Breathe ballet flats (no longer made by Patagonia or sold on Zappos) and these have been disappointing. I wear a 5.5-6 and the smallest this shoe comes in (6) is too large - it flaps in the back when I walk and scrapes the back of my heels. I've had to wear bandages every time I wear these, even after several months of use. They are also thicker, heavier, and have a more wedge-shaped inner sole. I would prefer a more barefoot/minimalist feel than these can provide. As a result, the New Balance En Route ballet flats on Zappos look like they may be a better replacement.

I ordered these in the grey/blue, and they are even cuter in person. I could see wearing them with jeans, shorts, or even casual skirts or sundresses. The material is really nice: it's stretchy, soft and very comfortable in the forefoot. The fit is snug to keep the shoe from sliding around, but because of the stretch it isn't tight or constricting. The only drawback is that the sole of the heel has a strange angle to it so that the very back of my foot feels like it is being tipped forward when I stand. It is not as if I am wearing a wedge or high heel, but feels unnatural. I'm very disappointed to have to return these.

Hard to review as the pair I received were defective - the top of the shoe in the front on the right is significantly shorter than the left. So on my right foot, there is a lot of toe cleavage and the left foot looks like a nice normal shoe. Back they go.

I already have two pairs of these shoes, size 9M. When I ordered this pair, they are marked 9M, but are clearly too small. At least a full size too small. I am returning them.

I love this shoe, but the heel area cut into my heel so bad the first time I wore them my heels were bleeding, with bandaids, when I got home. I hope to cure this problem with some sort of cushioning on the shoe.

Cute shoes, definitely like the style. I bought them fo a trip to D.C., and they just we weren't made for long distance walking. I got some huge blisters on my heels; however, they were great for around town.

First of all, these are very cute shoes, who can resist. the toe box is very shallow so I had to get a half size larger. The insole fabric is a bit warm. I kept them because I could not resist and now they are lovely. Zappos team as usual, made it all easy to exchange. Thanks Zappos!

Adorable shoes that look fabulous. However, they give no support so if you're in your 60's & have weak feet & ankles, get these only if you will not have to walk far in them.
