Customer Reviews Sesto Meucci Sylke

I ordered two pairs: one snakeskin and one black. Very please. At first. Then the back strap began to stretch and now I have to use duct tape to keep them on. Then, the snakeskin version began to shed its (now I discover FAKE) cork trim and the sole is starting to split. I do not recommend that you pay the high price for these shoes.

Even though I LOVE these sandals I’ve been very disappointed in their wear and tear. The plastic silver inset of the wedge has popped out numerous times and didn’t last long. I’ve worn my old ones a lot, so because of that thought I’d try a new pair. I sure hope these last longer.

These shoes are really cute, very comfortable and fit true to size. The leather is buttery soft and has a beautiful color. I always received compliments when I wore them. However, after less than 2 months and having only worn them a handful of times, the decorative plastic band around one of the shoes broke off into several pieces! I was walking through my kitchen to head out shopping when I heard the clink of plastic hit the floor. If it had broken off in a solid piece I imagine I could have had it repaired. Very disappointed because I really liked this shoe!

I wear a 9N and the fit is excellent. The supple quality of the leather is superb and gently envelopes the foot in all the right places for a secure and extremely comfortable fit. There is no arch support built in, but the suede footbed coupled with the ample straps means the foot does not slide. These sandals are beautifully constructed and designed, with an elegant touch of contrasting color at the footbed- a very impressive sandal.

What a joke. I ordered these in an 8 W. I usually wear an 8 in sandals and an 8.5 in shoes. I couldn't even get my foot in these. The wide is *maybe* an average width. The leather does feel soft. I'm attaching a picture showing these sole to sole with a pair of size 38 Birkenstocks Mayari. As you can see, they are significantly narrower and shorter. I do tend to need shoes that accommodate a higher instep, so if that's you, look elsewhere I'm sorry to say. I doubt you'd be able to get these on your foot.

I love this shoe. I bought l/2 size up and next higher width. They are butter soft and get endless compliments. The problem is: the silver panels along the sides fall off after a few wearings. Others have indicated this problem, I have had it and my sister (who bought on my suggestion) has had it. For near $200/pair....the shoes should be good for more than a dozen or so wearings (light duty, no water). Please Zappos: make the manufacturer fix this problem and let your customers know! I currently have my pairs (8) separated into those that have lost the silver panels and the ones that I save for "good" so I can wear them for good occasions. My friends and sister are whining at me for the problem they are now experiencing too!

I really wanted to like these shoes. The leather is so soft and the shoe is very high quality. I have a very narrow shoe and I felt that these shoes were a little wide for a narrow. Not all narrows work for me, but these felt more like a medium.

Love these sandals! I tried them on in a store nearby so knew how they looked on my foot before purchasing. I have a narrow foot and my regular size in a narrow width fit perfectly. I wore them on vacation with no issues and no break-in required. I also love the nude color - it works with a variety of outfits.

Love the look of this shoe, and the leather is butter soft. I really wanted to keep it! But it was too loose for my foot, even in my usual narrow size. Felt as if I would need a AAA or Slim, which is not available in this style. And since the unlined leather is so soft, it might stretch and become looser with wear. If the size fits you, grab it and be pampered.

These shoes were super cute and the leather feels like butter....so soft. Unfortunately, the narrow was not narrow enough for me. In many shoes I would take a slim, but I always try the narrow because slims are so hard to find.

This is a great "walking around" sandal--supports, covers enough of my foot, good looking. It is not a "fashion" sandal, but I wanted something to get me through the day.

I bought 5 pair of these shoes. After reading the reviews, I ordered l/2 size larger and one width larger and they fit perfectly. I have a high arch and they fit beautifully - with the upgrade is size/width. The secret to this sandal, comfort wise, is a small zipper on the instep of the arch - it keeps the sandal snug on your foot. I have not worn any other of my (numerous) shoes since I bought these! I get many compliments on them too. The leather is like butter and therefore stretches out in the nicest way and not too much. I love, love, love these shoes. I have 2 pair of the nude color I wear continually - going to buy another pair now - I'm afraid they might not be available if I wait! I can't say how great these shoes are for me - I hate walking with the sandals flapping or my foot falling off them. The height of the shoe is great too - nice look and no falling off the shoe.

I really liked this shoe and I did something that I usually don't, which is to order a medium and wide width because I have one foot with a bunion and one that has been operated on so it is narrower. I tried on the wide first and it was perfect so I am returning the medium. The reviews said it ran narrow. I love the shoe. It is soft and light. Perfect as a dressy summer shoe or a shoe to wear for traveling when you want to look nice but need lots of comfort.

Super soft leather which was so nice. However these were too short. 10 is my normal size but would need an 11.

I wanted to love this sandal but it didn't love my foot. I loved the fact that it came in narrow and neutral color. In my first attempt I found it ran about a 1/2 small, so order up. I ordered up and the next pair, I was disappointed because it felt like a tack was under the ball of my right foot. It might have been a defective pair because the 8 did not feel that way. But The leather is butter soft and I liked the zipper vs the common velcro.

A lovely and very comfy sandal. The leather is super soft and thin. I worry a bit about the longevity due to this. Still going to keep because of the comfort. Good for walking/tourist outings.

Beautiful sandals but there are issues. I purchased 2 pair- black and navy, both size 7M. Sadly the fit couldn't be different. Straps on the black pair are on the loose side and the foot bed and straps on the navy pair are tight and narrow. I think they may be mislabeled as M because they fit like a narrow. Upper leather is butter soft and great for anyone with bunion issues. Unfortunately the leather is also very thin and will stretch out after a couple wears. I'm afraid they would stretch and flop off back of my foot. Lastly, lack of arch support makes these sandal less versatile. I am searching for a casual dress sandals that I can use for walking on cobbled stone streets in Europe. The hunt continues.

The fit around the arch of the foot in this shoe is not perfect, but the leather is like butter, the sole is incredibly comfortable and it is very stylish. I think it is worth ordering and I kept it.

Ordered 7-1/2 narrow which is my normal size and it was too loose and long. The length would have been okay in a sandal, but it was not narrow enough.

These were a bit tight on my narrow foot, but would probably loosen up with use. However, they gapped in places and just were not attractive.

The leather is so soft and comfortable. I normally would wear a 11M or 10W but the 11W in these is almost snug.

I have hard to fit wide feet. However they fit perfectly and even made my foot look thinner. Could use more support.

Beautifully made sandal. Feels like walking in a cloud.

I ordered these Sesto’s in white and navy because I had already purchased a pair in ivory and found them very comfortable. I did return the white pair, but only because they cost $70 more than the navy pair (thank heaven it was on sale). I’ll keep watching to see if the white pair goes on sale, and if it does, I’ll buy it.

Love the soft leather! Just a bit too small from my normal size. Hopefully I can order a half size up.
