Love these shoes. They're like a more stylish, lightweight version of Birkenstocks. They also have great arch support--I have very high arches, so sandals are a tough sell for me as I can't usually put my custom supports in. These are worth every penny. I would recommend getting a size down. I wear a 6/36 normally and the 35 fit perfectly. If you're a 6.5 normally, I would get the 36.

Love these boots! Comfortable, supportive, and stylish. I’ve had issues with Plantar Fasciitis and this brand seems to have good arch support. I am on my feet several hours a day as a hairstylist and must have supportive shoes. Aetrex may be one of my favorite go-to brands now. I have recently purchased 2 pairs of boots and a pair of clogs that feel and look great. Some have said the arch support seems too far back but I didn’t find that to be the case for me. I have a somewhat wide foot and the toe box on the styles I own from Aetrex feel roomy, but not sloppy. Sometimes a wide width is too wide for me. These are a roomy average width.

I over pronate and have a high arch, so I need a very supportive shoe for everyday wear. This one is perfect. I wear 8.5 in a medium width in most of my shoes, and that size and width in this fit me perfectly. I would definitely recommend this sandal for anyone who needs support as well as cushioned comfort in a sandal.

I was extremely pleased about how comfortable they are. I’d love if the sole wasn’t white but overall a keeper! Ordered 2 colors!

I love Aetrex for it's great arch support. TI have flat feet and wear orthotics but sometimes in the summer a girl has to wear sandals. Aetrex has worked for me in the past but this sandal runs wide and long. I'm going to order a size down and hope for a better fit. Thanks Zappos!

This shoe runs at least a size too large. Order small. Unfortunately it doesn't come smaller than a 5 so I will be returning it.

Extra comfy footbed! Sadly, the straps are a bit tight for my c-width foot. If you are a true B width, I expect they would be fine. I'm sending them back and have ordered another with the same footbed and a different strap configuration. Hoping that works!

Cannot get over how comfortable these shoes are. I have a moderate bunion on one foot and often select wide width but these are fine for me and I had to size down. The gold pony are the "hippest" looking of the bunch. I tried the panda print because I thought they would be more versatile and less prone to showing dirt but the shiny material made them look cheap, so back those go.

I usually wear a size 7 1/2 and I may have to order this in a size 6 the strap is very wide and since it doesnt adjust the shoe slides off

I love the look of these sandals in Gold Pony. So cute! The fit is difficult, however, because they are so wide. I usually can wear a wide shoe but even in regular width these were too wide for me. Also, I have very flat feet and somehow the arch just hit my foot wrong. Sadly, these are going back.

The footbed is amazingly comfortable. The straps are large so they look a bit chunky on. I've ankle and foot problems and love another pair of Aetrex I own. Sadly, the straps of this black version seem to rub a little on the top of my foot. It doesn't seem like they'd break in so I'm returning.

The shoes are great with one exception - the sole is stark white. It is hard to detect in the side view pictures due to the white background but it is very noticeable in person - not sure why i didn't notice the picture of the bottom of the shoe. I don't understand the white - it ruins the look completely. I'm hoping over time it become less noticeable.

I have a couple of pairs of Aetrex sandals, which I love, so I ordered these to try. They are very comfortable, but they are about a size larger than the pair that I already own.

Unbelievably comfortable but the large criss cross straps are not attractive at all on my wide feet! Will return.

Had high hopes for these, but with the sandal being a little short (my size 11 feet were a little long) and the style not quite working for me, i am sending these back.

These shoes were pretty comfortable, although they pinched my pinky toes a bit. I returned them because the soles are white. I didn't notice that in the pictures. The white soles make the shoes look much more casual.

I ordered the black slip on. Not as pictured. The picture of the sandal was of a slip on (which I have and love in another color). Unfortunately, what I received had a strap that goes around the back of the foot and attaches with a buckle.
