I am disappointed that these sandals are not going to work for me. I had been eying them for about six months and finally ordered them. I love the style and the leather is soft and of good quality. The foot bed is meh- I was expecting an experience similar to the Taos Star- and the sandal is tight on my average width foot. I can't justify the price for sandals I don't truly love, so sadly they are going back.

I wear lots of flip flops, but these made my toes bleed. I bought them for the arch support, but hope my toes stop bleeding when I wear them. Doesn’t look that good.

I ordered a 9.5 - 10 (41) too small for my almost size 10 foot. It was also tight across the top. I have another pair of these in 41 and they fit fantastic. frustrating

Do you have the kind of feet where when you buy sandals you have to punch extra holes in the straps to buckle them snugly enough? If so, don't bother with these. I really like the way they look, and wanted to try them on, but obviously, they don't adjust for foot volume, so my foot was like a train in a tunnel, at no risk of touching the tunnel walls. And they are a little short, which means you do need to size up by a half to have them be long enough, which of course increases the shoe volume.

I ordered these sandals on a recommendation of two friends. Unfortunately, my foot is too wide and my arch is too high. I had to return them.

I love the look, feel, and the bronze color of this shoe. Unfortunately, I had to return them because they were not wide enough for my foot. If you have a wide foot with a very high arch, order a size up.

I love the look of these sandals but alas...they did not work out for me. My foot is pretty much a 9 1/2 and a little on the narrow side.These sandals only come in whole sizes. I took the chance and ordered the 10 and hoped that the length would be Ok and that the fact that many reviewers said they run narrow might work out for me. My foot was swimming in them. I have a bunion and these sandals would have been great in hiding that ... but my sandal search continues!

Beautiful shoe. Soft leather - and would be comfortable if my little toe didn't hang over the edge. I am a consistent medium width but this is too narrow. Sadly must return. It seems that Naot, and now this brand, is getting more narrow in the medium width. Other shoe brands continue to fit in a medium width. It looks like Birkenstocks are the way to go for me. I have the Mayari Birkenstock and it's perfect in width for a medium.

These sandals were a little narrow and not near the arch support that I need. Love my Taos sneakers

Very "Birkenstock" and not flattering on my foot at all. Needed a narrow instead of a medium width also, so had to return.

Still not sure if I am keeping. I ordered the size 7 and it felt off between my toes - maybe too small as it pulled to one side but the width was good and did a good job hiding my bunions. So I ordered the size 8 and they seem much better between the toes but almost too wide. I think a 7 1/2 would be perfect but of course they don't come in half sizes.

I wanted to love these, they’re very stylish and the leather is very soft. However, they have very little arch support which caused my feet to overpronate.

For some reason the right sandal is tighter and fits strangely over my instep while the left sandal is ok. Probably must return and try again. Maybe this is a manufacturing one off- I certainly hope so, since I have enjoyed these sandals in other years for their comfort and construction

I love how this brand fits and supports so comfortably. Unfortunately I didn’t like the pewter color. It was darker than I wanted.

I liked these but I had to return them; too wide & too high of an instep for me.

This shoe is supercute and really wanted it to fit, but way too wide for my narrow feet (even with bunions!) Ordered down one size and length was fine but too wide.

To me it felt like I was walking on wood. I have bought other Taos sandals that were hard, but were a lot more comfortable.

These run small, no problem, returned with Zappos and they sent me a size larger. The leather stretched out so much I can't wear them. I wish these companies would use a smooth leather on the footbed. The suede absorbs sweat and no matter how you clean them, they get dirty and smelly. Sadly I won't be buying these again and can't recommend them.
I'd also recommend:
Vionic, Birkenstock (with smooth leather footbed) Ecco, Sofft

Cute and fit is likely ok for most people but these did not fit with my high arches. Foot bed probably very supportive. BUT I am very disappointed that , for this price, the uppers are NOT leather but are plastic-y junk made overseas that would neither stretch nor be very cool in summer. Returning .

I really liked the color and sheen of this upper, but the fit was strange. My foot did not align with the foot bed, and the upper squeezed the mid-foot. It also looks strange showing so much of one side of the foot. Returned.

Excellent arch support and cushioning, but way too wide. Does not stay on my feet. Generally well made.

The right shoe was smaller and the fit very different from the left. I have owned three or four of these same shoes over the years but this one does not fit the same or feel the same at all.

I got these based on the rave reviews and I don't get it. They are very loose and dont hold my foot at all. So if there is good arch support I can't feel it. If you like your foot to be held snugly and supported, these are not the ones.

The upper fabric cover on these are amazing, but the lower footbed and sole reach crunchy instead of cool in person. I also didn't like the microfiber cover on the footbed; my felt felt hot and itchy almost immediately. After trying these on, I returned them.
