Customer Reviews SOREL Ella Sandal

Super cute sandals! But they run quite small. I’m usually a 9.5 or 10. I had to exchange a 10 for 10.5. (As always, Zappos was awesome in helping me with that.) I think the way the back part angles in makes your foot push forward, so it skews the sizing bc now that your foot is so far forward, there’s still all this room in the heel. BUT your foot is still really sturdy in the sandal.

Cute sandals. I usually wear an 8.5 in most shoes but I got this in a 9 and it fits correctly. Not too much arch support but will be a good shoe for my beach vacation!

Very cute and on the stylish side. My feet seem to be going more narrow with age and these were the first sandals in ages that actually felt like they would stay on my feet. The leather is buttah! Two things had me sending them back...the stitching around the insole that and the perfect flatness of the shoe. The stitching was noticeable to my heel and toes and maybe over time I would have begun to ignore it, but it stood out on the try on. I had hoped they would be a bit more lift at the heel but they were perfectly flat, no arch and I think my back would protest over a long day. Unfortunately. Back they went.

I ordered my usual 9.5 and have several pairs of Sorels that I love. However my foot just looked goofy for lack of a better description. I loved the green and the quality of the sandal but it just didn’t suit me.

Based on previous reviews, I ordered a whole size larger and they fit perfectly. (I'm usually a 6.5 and I ordered a 7.5.) These are pretty comfortable for a flat sandal on account of the lightly padded footbed and the flexible sole (and the stretchy straps). I have somewhat muscular calves and not the most delicate ankles and they are surprisingly flattering. I think they'll look great with dresses and cropped jeans.

Size 8 worked well for me (I’m a 7.5-8, typically. Shoes are comfortable, but “warm gold” is too rose gold for me. Sending back but will keep Sorel in mind for sandals, etc., as have only owned snow boots from them.

A little tight at first, but once broken in are quite comfortable. Would maybe go up a half size.

Super comfy! Ankle straps are pretty tight but I have very small ankles so it works.

Love the look of these sandals - the metallic adds just enough pizzazz to make them interesting. They are a bit stiff now but I think they will get worn in. Arch support is minimal although better than just a flat sandal.

Overall this is a good sandal. I totally agree with other reviewers that this shoe runs small. I usually wear 7 or 7.5 and had to go to an 8 for this shoe. Very comfortable, the front strap is a bit too wide for me simply based on aesthetics, but otherwise really like it.

I usually wear a 6.5, when I started to walk with the shows on, my toes completely went over the front of the sandals. They are comfortable and didn’t feel like they needed to be broken in.

Perfect size 7. Nice to find a sandal I like that comes in half sizes! I’ve returned many sandals recently that were just 1/2 size too big or small. Nice looking and comfortable though the absolute flatness takes a little getting used to. For me, the stretchy straps feel like ankle support even though there really isn’t any. Comfortable and versatile enough that I’m planning to take as main footwear on ten-day Europe trip. Have black, considering also buying another color.

Love the Warm Gold color. Usually wear a 6-1/2 or 7. Needed a 7-1/2 to get a comfortable fit - elastic strap was too tight.

I ordered my regular size and it was definitely too short. 1/2 size up fit great. Very comfortable. I have narrow feet but normally wear regular width and 1/2 size up from regular was perfect. Very comfortable. Would recommended.

These run quite narrow, lucky for me! I have very narrow feet and its hard to find shoes I'm not swimming in. The elastic straps do seem a bit tighter than I think might be comfortable, so I'm ordering a half size up to see if it's better in the bigger size. The length is perfect in my usual size 8 though.

It was comfortable. I sized up from 8 to 8.5 because 9 was out of stock but I need a 9. My toes hit the seem. Since I'm buying it for traveling, I don't want to risk causing blisters.

My feet: High arch, wide toe box, size 7.5, sometimes need a wide width for dress shoes, 8 wide for running shoes. Multiple surgeries on right foot which makes fit tricky and comfort important. What I bought: SOREL Ella Sandal, 7.5, Camel brown My impressions: I was thinking that there was no way my high arch and wide toe box could fit in these shoes, but they did! While there is no arch support, I find them to be comfortable enough, but I don't think my feet could hold up in them walking around all day on a trip or anything. I like the camel brown color, which I feel comes through accurately in pictures and I don't have any problem with the elastic top bands and think they look find. A good, casual sandal that is a tiny bit dressed up.

These are cute shoes, but they run small. I returned them. My size is not available.

I have this sandal in three colors, black, silver, and tobacco. Oddly, the leather across the ball of the foot on the black pair is not nearly as soft as they are on my other two pair. This is true for every pair in black, as I have tried the shoe on in Macy's as well as ordered from Zappos.

I really wanted to love this shoe - it looks great in all of the photos - I just was underwhelmed when I tried it on myself. The front strap also rubs my toes a bit, maybe it would get better with time, but I think I'll be returning these, unfortunately. Most other people seem to love these shoes so maybe it's just me! :-/

I purchased these before a work trip to las vegas because I knew I would be doing a lot of walking and was looking for something that was comfortable but could work for business (very) casual attire. I couldn't decide on a color so I ordered both the camel brown and warm gold. The warm gold is a beautiful color but with my skin tone, the ankle straps looked a little like ankle bandages so I went with the camel brown. They worked well for my trip. They had little to no break-in period so they were great for all of the walking that I did. The only real downfall for me is that they are not easy to just slide on and go. With the elastic straps at the ankle, I had to use two hands to put them on which required the use of something to sit on, brace up against, or just really good balance. Not a deal breaker, or even unexpected given the style of shoe, but not my favorite.
