Customer Reviews Sam Edelman Gala

I have an average width foot and generally wear a size 7 and the size 7 fit perfectly. They were even better than what I imagined and will work well with dresses, shorts and jeans. I’m very happy with this purchase.

These are super cute but when I ordered a 7.5 which is what I almost always wear they were the length of my foot and looked awful. I love Zappos return policy so I just ordered an 8 and am hoping they fit better. The main reason I bought these is because they come in wide. Hopefully I’ll have better luck with the next size, but the 7.5’s were the most narrow “wide” I’ve ever seen in my life.

Disappointed in the quality of these shoes for what I paid for them. Wore them one time and the sole is already worn. Leather marked up in two spots and when I tried to buff out those areas the dye on the leather rubs right off. I should have sent them back because of the soles but since the leather is ruined after one wear I guess I’m stuck with them. Other than the cosmetic flaws I really liked these shoes. They run narrow so I’m glad I purchased the wide width.

I was very unhappy after wearing the sandals one time. They were wider than Medium and I had trouble keeping them on my feet. The elastic in the top part of the sandal loosened on first wearing. The heel looks worn after just one wearing. Very unhappy with shoes

I really liked these shoes when I first received them. However, within two days of owning them, they looked very worn! The paint on the exterior edges of the shoe wore off when I walked down a fine gravel path. I have owned many other sandals and not had this problem. I returned these shoes, as I would expect better quality for the price.

Love these sandals. Ordered my regular size 9.5 because i was worried that the straps would be too loose if I order up to a 10 which i usually do for sandals or flip flops. My feet were right at the edge. So back they go and a size 10 is in the way! Thank you zappos for the option to do this! You are the best!

Look really cute on, but after about five wears, they started to slip off while I walked, and I would trip over the toe end. Today, I noticed the sole separating. For $80, I am super disappointed in how they are holding up (or not actually). I

I ordered the M width first, but the strap closest to my toes was a little too tight. I ordered the W instead, and they fit the same, but I love these sandals so I'm going to wear them in hopes the leather stretches to fit my foot (I have never had to order a W shoe before...). I love the way they look, and seem to have more cushion than many other sandals.

Great shoe - I’ve ordered in two styles now. They’re also surprisingly cushy and comfortable for all day wear. I haven’t encountered the stretching issue I’ve read about in reviews. My only criticism is that I ordered an 11, which usually gives me extra room and virtually every shoe I’ve ever owned, but these shoes in an 11 are barely long enough. They fit like a 10-10.5.

I love these shows so much I now have two pairs. A friend of mine had them and I’m glad I tried hers on before ordering. I am an 8 in every pair of shoes I own but her size 9 fit perfectly. I maybe could’ve gone with an 8.5 but I love how the 9 fits. I struggle to find comfortable sandals and these are so comfortable. Debating buying a third pair! I definitely recommend sizing up at least half a size if not a whole size.

Perfect!

These fit perfectly and were very comfortable. They’re simple and slide on easily and give a slightly dressy look to any casual outfit

I honestly love everything about these shoes. I prefer to wear no shoes at all, so I'm always on the lookout for good slide-on sandals (easy on and off!). These look great with shorts or dresses, and will be good travel shoes. The foot bed is padded and unusually comfortable for a flat-soled sandal. I generally wear a size 9, but I always need a 9-1/2 in Sam Edelman sandals, and these were no different (oddly, I wear a 9 in their non-sandal shoes). Sam Edelman shoes tend to hold up well, and I expect to be wearing these for a long time!

7.5 is my TTS and this sandal was also TTS. Very cute leopard slide and I am so glad Sam Edelman makes their foot bed with some cushion!! So many other designers don't!

I love these shoes, I will probably repurchase in another color. I normally wear a 5 1/2, but in this shoe I wear a 6. The straps feel loose, but I have a narrow foot, but they weren't loose enough to send the shoe back. I have not been able to find a navy blue sandal, so I'm going with silver.

I have the first version of these slides (I think) with patent toe strap and leather foot strap. I purchased them 2+ years ago. Same design as featured here. I own them in black and in natural. I was first attracted to the design and love the minimal look (and throwback 90s design). I bought them and wore them for a summer, mainly the black because they went with more outfits. I took the black ones with me on a backpacking trip bc I wanted something a little dressier but easily packable. One day I was in Singapore and walked the entire city in these! They held up great. No arch support so my feet were aching a little but not horribly. (And I have super high arches and horrible feet - these shoes hardly bother my feet.) I can't believe I still wear these today. I won't let go of them because I can't find a pair to replace them. They are so classic and comfortable. The bottoms are a little scuffed but are non slip and the top parts still look fine. They go with everything and can be dressy or not. I even put them in the washing machine once because of a pet 'accident'! I hope I am not jinxing myself but these are indestructible! Love them and probably my favorite shoe because I don't like to over complicate an outfit and need to get out the door in something I am not going to slip around in, and can't usually wear heels as I have a pretty active career (real estate and always on my feet but need to look presentable). You get what you pay for and these may be a little pricier than sandals you buy for a year and then toss, but if you get these you will wear them and love them and not regret the purchase!

I feel like so many times I buy sandals that I need a minimum of 2 wears to break in. These are the most comfortable sandals I own, I never had to break them in and haven't gotten any sort of blisters/rubbing on my feet that normally happen to me with sandals. I am a size 6 in all shoes, these fit true to size. Highly recommended!

Love the look and comfort of these sandals. I can wear them all around the city and walk everywhere in them without rubs or them falling apart. I had a similar pair from Sam Edelman and only bought new ones because my dog ate those! No arch support (obvious from pictures), so if you're someone that needs something more supportive these probably aren't for you.

I wanted to love these but ended up returning them. The front strap was too wide for my foot, causing my foot to slide out. I ordered a 1/2 size up and they did fit (normally an 8.5, like the 9 in this style). Quality seems fine but if I wear flat shoes I need them to fit right.

I thought these shoes were cute and have enjoyed my Sam Edelman sandals in the past. Unfortunately, I have both wide and thick feet, so the strap wasn’t quite big enough to fit over my foot comfortably. Otherwise, these shoes were stylish and would have kept them if they fit.

These are super cute but run a bit small. I'm a solid 9 1/2 but my toes and heel went all the way to the edges.

I ordered my true size in these (8W), and they fit perfectly right out of the box. it can be hard to find sandals that are comfortable for a wide foot, but these ones are great. They also look very clean and stylish. My only critique is that there is very little traction in the sole, so my foot sometimes slides out of the straps.

These sandals run slightly short. I wear a 7.5 and usually have some room, but these fit exactly. I have a high arch so the second band is a little snug. The first band is good. There is no arch support, but there is a nice cushion. I will only wear them for short periods. I must say that while I had them on I found the straps got a little warm, they stuck to my feet. Still, they look awesome!

Top strap is oddly loose And bottom strap is oddly tight for my foot. Would have returned them but I threw out the box and so now own a pair of shoes I will never wear.

They don’t come with a box! You must be kidding me. Called customer service and they were not helpful. Details of no box SHOULD be included in descriptions of items. For those who store shoes in boxes, not having a box is a huge deal.
