Customer Reviews SAS Marina

I've had these sandals in black for two years and really love them. Initially purchased them for a family trip to Europe and they were outstanding for all the walking we did, up to 20,000 steps a day. However, the thin layer of cork on the footbed has not held up well. First noticed it when they got wet in the rain. at this point about half of the cork has worn off and is creased. I still wear them but try to avoid getting them wet at all.

This is a really cute summer sandal with a comfy sole. Unfortunately, it ran short. I'm usually an 8 M in SAS - and my toes were at the very end. There's no 8.5M in the color I want, but I suspect a half size larger is the way to go.

The shoe runs a bit narrow and a it long. I solved the problem by ordering half size smaller and the wide size. I have 3 pairs. They provide the best stability of any shoe I own plus... they do not look orthopedic.

The sandal was light and comfortable. The sole was wonderfully cushioned. Unfortunately, it was half a size too big for my feet. This is my first purchase of SAS. I find sometimes I am a 7 or 7.5 depending on the manufacturer.

I liked this sandal. It felt comfortable except the piece that goes between the toes. The way the leather was sewn , it was to abrasive on the inside of the toes.

It felt comfy and supportive right away, but did not care for the cork bed—especially when reading other reviewers complaints about it eventually cracking. I wear a wide shoe and this one was a bit wider than most.

They were o.k. but not stellar. They fit well (I wear a wide) and were comfortable, but they were bone white instead of a bright white and I didn't find them stylish like the Vionic Miami. With the high price, I'd need to love them.

I was very excited to try these shoes. I know lots of people who wear this brand & love them. I was super disappointed when I tried them on. They didn't feel good at all. I have had far more sandals that are much more comfortable.

I have struggled with achilles and plantar fasciitis issues in the past - probably partly due to having a very high arch that has fallen some over time. I need sandals with excellent arch support, and a style with a back for walking many hours on trips. I don't need the footbed to be quite as wide as this one seems, but on warm weather days on long trips, one's foot can get sweaty and slide. The bit of extra width allows that to happen for me without the blisters that can form when one is wearing shoes with more substantial sides. I could use a slight bit more arch support, but I am able to walk miles and miles in these sandals without discomfort! I have had zero problem with the cork. You can get by wearing these with just about anything, although, if the straps had finished edges that didn't fray at all, it would be easier to wear them with dressier clothes. I've worn my pair for about a year, and the edges aren't looking that great. I will, undoubtedly, be buying them again, though!

Perfect fit and so far super comfortable. My feet felt like they were in heaven, perfectly held and cushioned by shoe. A bit worried that Velcro may wear out over time, but would love another pair in different color — if only they weren’t so expensive.

It's slightly big, but loose in the thong but I prefer that so doesn't punch between my toes. It can be slippery on the bottom but I walked over 12 hrs in them during vacation and my feet didn't hurt. I love that my toes are free to move and not be confined in a toebox. Definitely worth the price.

Nice shoe but strap isn't long enough for someone with a wide foot and ankle.

Very cute sandals. They were super comfy except the toe piece did not get along with my foot.

I normally wear an 11.5 Wide (men's 10 most of the time), but I'm now in a 10.5 W in this and the straps are still really loose on my foot. I almost think I should have gone for the 10W. (I've not worn a size 10 shoe since high school.) The wide, foot-shaped footbed is heavenly. I love that I'm not walking over the edges. But the shoe is quite heavy and it swings forward when you walk, sloshing around a bit. The sole is super cushy, but when the sole flexes (like if you're bending down on one knee), the cork footbed wrinkles up and pinches the bottom of your foot. I hope this won't be an issue. I find these awkward to walk in...they're just so heavy and big, like I'm walking on bricks tied to my feet. I wouldn't be able to run to catch a bus in these. Styling is great...they don't really look like "orthopedic old lady shoes" like most shoes of this type. I'd love to have this shoe with a much lower profile and less imposing sole. Pricing is ridiculous. It's a total ripoff to charge this much for shoes, but at this size I don't have many choices and have to be happy with shoes that are less than what I want. And pay for the privilege. Barefoot is becoming a compelling choice.

The straps seem a little loose. Not enough length of velcro on the closure strap. Strap needs more adjustability.

These were actually cute sandals - and I swore I would never buy SAS shoes. Upon trying them, I decided they were not worth the price. They were very comfortable but I returned them.

These are by far some of the cutest of the SAS sandals. The heel is incredibly comfortable. My only problem with them is that the strap around the ankle is not quite big enough for my ankle. I wish I had a little more play. Perhaps if the shoe had a longer gore on the side opposite of the buckle then it would help. When the strap is at its maximum, it causes the centerpiece that goes up from the tow to be off-center to the middle of your foot. I have these in the turquoise and white and the black and do enjoy wearing them but they are not my favorites because of the ankle strap. I will not buy any more.

Liked the shoe and the style. Could not adjust strap (Velcro) tight enough, so fit was sloppy. For my foot, there was no arch support. Returning shoe

These are very comfortable and super cute! My only desire is for the strap to be a little bit longer because I have a wide ankles and have the straps maxed out.
