Buttery soft straps make these sandals super comfy! I love being able to adjust the straps to fit my wider foot. Perfect heel height, not too heavy, cushioned sole. What more can a girl ask?

First, the shoe was very comfortable even at a half size too small. The heel is right at 2" in back and perfect for me. While I like the color, buyers should be aware that the gray is a taupe gray not a true gray.

Great for narrow feet with high arch because of Velcro adjustment. Love these shoes! Have been wearing Aetrex sandals which are great as well. Nice to find new options that are stylish and feel good on my feet.

I am a long time Dansko wearer and have been looking at Taos for a while. I finally took my first plunge and the comfort of these shoes is well worth it! The cork footbed perfectly supports my high arches and the adjustable velcro straps fit my wide-ish foot well. The leather is very soft and smoothe unlike the braided "Trulie" model, so no rubbing. I wish they made these in fun, summer teal and orange colors like last year's "Sadie" sandal! I purchased the nude "stone" color and they are perfect for lighter complexions without looking like a "mom sandal." I have worn them out several times now and my foot feels very secure with the straps holding my foot in place over the arch. Would absolutely buy this shoe again!

Good length. I have large bunions so I thought this cross style might work. But no such luck. Very soft leather and I liked the cork sole, even though the wedge was higher than what I usually wear. Was comfortable except the ankle strap which wasn’t adjustable was too loose for my foot.

The right foot fit well. I do love the footbed. The left foot had a spot where the folded strap is that chafed. I didn't want to chance it, so returned them.

fit and size were true. But. The heel is raised higher, more like wearing a heal. Not good for posture. Sad.

Technically these fit. However, I find the ankle strap is too loose and cannot be tightened any more therefore my heel and ankle constantly slide side ways. This is hurting my ankle tendons. But since I’ve worn them I can’t return. Definitely over priced for the use I’m getting.

Love the Taos brand and have numerous pairs. Unfortunately, this will not be one of them. Aside from feeling a little small, the back of the shoe hit low on my heel and the shoe itself seems a bit smaller than the usual 9. I would go a 1/2 size up if not for the heel issue. Cute sandal.

I really wanted to love these. I like how they look, and the leather felt very soft. When I put them on, the footbed immediately felt so comfortable and supportive. The problem came when adjusting the velcro straps so the sandals fit securely. When I adjusted the ankle straps tight enough to feel right, the little strap connecting the z-strap to the sole felt rough and scratchy against that side of my foot. This happened with both feet. My ankles are on the thin side, so I don't know if that has anything to do with how these fit, but those little rough straps drove me nuts just walking around my house. The sole of the shoe is also not very flexible and has a clunky feel to it when walking. The shoes did seem like the right size, but they didn't work for me.

I usually am between sizes, either a 7W or an 8W depending on brand and style. Zappos only had the smaller size in stock, and sadly it didn’t hit my arch in the right place so I had to return. I could tell though that this was an extremely comfy sandle right out of the box!

I love the comfort of this Sandler- the foot pad is soft and leather is of high quality very flexible / not stiff. Unfortunately I did need to return them as the strap over the ankle is to short for my wide puffy feet. I liked the straps at the toes was adjustable- as my wide feet could fit comfortably. If you have wide feet with thinner ankles these would be perfect.

These are darling and I get lots of compliments. I think I'll be able to walk long distances in them (city walking). If I had one issue it would be that they have a rather hard bottom so they actually make noise like you're in a heel or something and I wasn't expecting that . They're so cute and comfy I'm going just go with it.

These sandals won't win an award for style but they were extremely comfortable and offered great support. However, they were short in length. I felt like my toes were too close to the front edge and looked like I was in a shoe too small. Returning.

Cute shoes, but am returning because the ankle strap is too loose and makes the shoe feel unstable. Thank you Zappos for your excellent return policy.

I love the look of these shoes but at size 7 they were too short. Normally I wear a 7.5. The width felt good to me even though I have a very wide (EE) ball of the foot. I'm sorry TAOS doesn't make half sizes. I would buy in a minute if they fit properly.

Great fitting shoe and very comfortable. Love Taos shoes for that reason. Gave the sandals a 4 star as I'm still hoping for a slightly higher wedge type heal for the Taos sandals.

I really like the look and feel of this shoe! Unfortunately, my true size is a 43 and this only goes up to 42 so my toe was hanging way over. Plus there's a little ridge under the toes at the top which would make it even more uncomfortable under my big toe, so back they go. So sad.
