Very cute, but even less sole padding than I anticipated. Very hard, hurts my back.

These sandals are better looking in the picture than on my feet. Also the straps are not comfortable. The foot bed is nicely padded though but it could not make up for the other negatives. Returning.

These were adorable but they run very narrow. I even went to Nordstrom's to try on two other sizes to double check and both of those sizes were also too narrow. I didn't want to return them, but my foot was hanging off the toe area by like a half inch and it wasn't pretty.

The Gigi sandals are super cute in black patent leather. However, they fit about half size smaller than what I normally wear. The toe seemed a bit narrow and there was no arch support. The sandals were not comfortable. There was not much cushioning. The part between the toes was too wide and too tight. It felt uncomfortable between my toes. I loved the look but had to return them.

This is a nice looking sandal, I have a narrow foot and this is a narrow shoe however it still seems a little floppy. I had to send the first pair back, the shoe was too short so I believe that it runs about a half size small.

This is a great sandal looks wise, but I just thought it looked and felt cheap. I'm returning them.

I relied on the 5 star reviews and boy were they off (for me) - my daughter and I both tried these and found the thong too wide, stiff and basically painful.
Look cute, that's about it.

I just received these in the mail today and I am shocked that I will be returning them, after reading all of these excellent reviews. I ordered the leopard/flamingo color hoping the pink would be as fluorescent as it looks in the photo. Unfortunately, it is not as bright of a pink as I was hoping - I would not call it fluorescent at all. Additionally, I found the bit between my toes to be much too wide for comfort. I could only wear the shoes for a few minutes before it drove me crazy. Sadly returning. For what it's worth, I'm usually either a size 8 or a 8.5 depending on the shoe, and I found the 8.5 to fit me better.

I don't get all the love for these shoes. I ordered the leopard. They are okay, nothing more. I wear a 9 1/2 or a 10; ordered a 10 in these and they were just a bit too small. I think Sam Edelman shoes tend to run small. I returned them.

Picture should be updated for the cork color. The photo is from last year and the cork on the new ones for 2012 looks very different. the cork is in blocks rather than chipped up pieces. much thinner and don't look as nice. sent them back.

I got these shoes in white in a 7.5 after reading some of the reviews that said to size up half a size. They were still too small. My toes were at the very edge and my heel had no room. I definitely needed an 8 and I am almost always a 7. Also, the strap between the toes was pretty wide. Almost to the point of being uncomfortable. I'm sad because I really liked the look of these.

Very cute but I ordered my regular size and my toes hang off the edge. Also, they felt too delicate to withstand all of the walking I do.

Runs 1 full size small. For the money, I expected higher quality. You're paying for the name with this shoe, not for the quality. Quality is certainly not bad, but not great either.

Really cute, but not comfortable. I love Sam Edelman shoes and own several pairs, so I ordered these. The piece that goes between your toes is pretty thick and uncomfortable. So unfortunately I returned them. But in general, I would recommend Sam Edelman shoes any day!

These fit well and look nice but they are not for walking. After a couple hours walking around town the soles of my feet were quite sore; it may have something to do with the snake embossing. I ended up with a large blister on the ball of my foot.

Very cute sandal but the footbed is extremely narrow and the toe thong is uncomfortable.

Super cute sandals. However, I am really surprised no one mentioned the way these sandals fit between the toes. The t-strap, where it is attached to the sole, is flat (you can see it in the pictures; I was not paying attention so I did not see it at all). In all of the similar sandals I've owned, this part of the strap was sewn into a tube-shaped stem. In this sandal, because it is flat, it ends up fitting really awkwardly between my toes. The strap is too wide and it ended up rubbing against the skin and giving me blisters within minutes of wearing the sandals. I noticed them fitting awkwardly right away, but they are so cute, I decided to keep them. Too bad. I'll try wearing them again, or maybe I'll take them to shoe repairs and see if they can sew the edges of the strap together into a narrower strap between the toes. Sigh. Just beware. Oh, and regarding sizing, if you normally are between sizes, buy the larger one. No need to go a full size up.

I typically wear an 8.5 but had to go up to a 9 in these. They still didn't look right, so I sent them back.

I am super bummed that I have to return these sandals. The reviews that say these are too narrow are 100% on the money. I usually wear a 9.5 but I ordered a 10. I have never in my life, ever, needed a wide size. In fact, I think my feet are on the narrow side of medium/average. Sadly, my big toes hang about 1/2 cm off the side of the shoes - and that's when I just standing. I'm afraid to see what would happen when I start walking! There's no point in me ordering a size 11 because the length of the size 10 is perfect, any longer and the back strap wouldn't fit. I got them in the color called dark sand suede. It's very pretty. The shoe is comfortable and actually sort of elegant. The simplicity of the design is sophisticated. You could wear these with dresses, shorts, jeans, skirts, anything really. Wow, am I bummed. These are just about perfect sandals except for the size issue. If you wear a narrow, then you will love these sandals. If you wear a wide then please don't order these because you will just be sad to have to send them back.

I bought this same style last season in a zebra print and was looking forward to these. I had to return them because the toe strap is rather thick and rubbed as soon as I tried them on.

These shoes are pretty cute and they seem to be well-made. I would definitely recommend ordering a half a size up though. And, not only were they too short, but my foot seemed to slide all over the place in them, hanging off the sides, etc. And, I have a pretty narrow foot so if you have wide feet these are definitely not for you. Unfortunately, I had to return them. They just didn't work out for me.

These sandals look cute, but they are not that comfortable where the sandal hits between the toes. I kept them, but every time I have worn them I kind of regret the purchase. Definitely not for walking much.

Somewhat attractive sandal, but it does have issues. I wear a 7 1/2 and had to get a size 8. On some sites the upper material reads "man made" on others it's "leather". I was hoping it was leather, but no. On the first day I wore them the black dye from the man made strap rubbed off on to my foot. They are a little disappointing for the price.

These sandals were just what I was looking for. Simple, but cute and could be dressed up or down. However, even though they were the correct size, my foot kept slipping of the shoe...the sides and the front. I didn't like that...thought it looked sloppy...so I am returning. However, I love Zappos. Zappos is the best place online to shop. I don't know how they do it...the absolute best customer service anywhere!
