Customer Reviews Clarks Arla Shaylie

I ordered these for my mother because I have the black pair, that I love. The black pair in an 11 in a half wide is never available, but I figured the color shouldn't make a difference. My mother has very wide feet and even though her original size is between a 10 and 11, I suggested she get a half size up because of her feet. It didn't matter, the left shoe was just too tight. I wonder why the black ones fit perfectly( of course she tried mine on) without any discomfort, but the tan ones; a completely different feel. Returning !

too wide on top of the instep. My size 9.5 felt small, as if my toes were going to come out of the shoe.

We bought the grey taupe pair ( they said tab bimutnit seems grayish tan! The material is not as elastic as the black pair I bought, it is stiffer and the top part of the sandal fits like a wide shoe, I am still keeping them because the foot bed is fantastic, and you can walk all day in them.

Disappointed. Shoe is not as comfortable as it looks and it rubs in a couple of spots on my feet.

I ordered my 2nd pair of this amazingly comfortable shoe, only to be disappointed by the right shoe being amazingly tight and uncomfortable. 3 of the 4 straps are elastic and the one cotton ?) one is so tight, it cuts off my circulation. Of course I had already recycled the box and packaging, as I assumed these would be as fantastic as the first pair. No problem for Zappos though, I am able to return them in a plain bag. Love Zappos

I purchased these shoes in black a couple of years ago and they are the most comfortable walking shoes I have. I decided to get a second pair in a different color and returned them because the upper strap puckers and does not sit flat on the foot. I tried it in two different sizes with the same results.

I had high hopes for these summer sandals. They have just the right sole and height that I look for (and don't often find) and are attractive. I liked the way they looked and like the stretchy-supportive feeling of the fabric. However, they felt short and very tight in the width, across the toes. The biggest problem was that the elastic closure kept popping open and wouldn't stay closed when I tried to tighten it. My ankles are rather slim (the only part of me that is!) and I like sandals to fit snugly around them. They did not work for me.

I wanted them to work. Love the look. Unfortunately the straps were off. Needed more stretch? I ended up with the arlo primrose sandals instead.

SORRY COULD NOT EVEN GET THEM ON, SO CAN NOT GIVE THEM A FAIR REVIEW DUE TO PROBLEM FEET - NICE LOOKING SHOE AND COLOR - WAS VERY DISAPPOINTED.

Decent looking but not as stylish as I would like. I would have gotten passed that though if it fit better. The back strap sat very low on my heel and felt like it would easily slip off. I have bunions and it really bothered them. Have to return.

A bit too clunky & frumpy while comfy enough

Could not tighten Velcro strap enough. Looks dowdy, but comfortable.

very comfy, but honestly, I found these to be pretty darn ugly. However, these felt like shoes I could've walked in all day, easily. I sent them back, though. But I returned them. I'm pushing 60 and I still need cute shoes in my life!

Really cute shoes, very comfortable foot bed but not a good fit for me.

These are very comfy sandals, but unfortunately, the top part is not soft enough for my feet and the front part rubbed up blisters on toes of both feet. Which is a shame because I really like them. The bottom is nice and spongy and good for a lot of walking.

This sandal was really comfortable, but I didn't like the two-tone color scheme. I got the red, but the top is actually red and pink, so I have to return.

These look fine on but I’m on my feet all day. Thought they’d be more like other Clark leather sandals I love. Kept them, but will look for leather next time.

This shoe was probably one of the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn. However I had to return them because the Velcro strap across the back wasn’t long enough, and I couldn’t pull it tight enough to not flop around. I think this looks like Clark’s is doing this with all their Velcro heel straps. Other problem is I was slipping and sliding down our wood floor. I would be afraid to wear these in the rain.

THESE ARE VERY ATTRACTIVE BUT DID NOT FIT ME AT ALL - MUCH TOO NARROW AND ILL FITTING ZAPPOS HAS GREAT RETURN POLICY AND GOOD REPS WHO MAKE IT VERY EASY TO RETURN!!

On the plus side, I really like the style and sole design, the footbed, heel height, and price. It's soft and comfortable. Before ordering this, I had doubts about the color. The photo shows gray on my screen and sure enough, it's gray so the sand description is wrong. I don't want gray shoes. Sand for me is a light tan/beige. There's not enough arch support and I cannot tighten the velcro enough. Another reviewer mentions "there is a tiny little piece of the band that juts out PAST the horizontal straps..." that's annoying, but it doesn't bother me. Very disappointed and returning the shoe. I'm having such a tough time finding the right shoe!

I wear a médium, but the straps in the sandals felt like they were for a wide foot and they were not adjustable. I had to return the shoes.

Nothing wrong with it except it didn't fit my weird feet comfortably.

This shoe style is very poorly made but sturdy .. For starters the top strap is too big and gaps.. And the strap around the heel is way too short.. In otherwards this is a very poorly construced shoe.. I have a large wide foot and both the 91/2 and 10 wide had the same problems.. Won't be buying Clark shoes in the future will stick to Merrells..

Wicked tight at 8.5, and too lose at the toe area in size 9. Had to send both back. I am usually between the two sizes, and a "M" width, but these did not work. It's too bad, they have a great spongy sole.

Very comfortable cute shoe with jeans.
