Customer Reviews Nunn Bush Rio Bravo 3-Strap River Sandal

If your foot is on the narrow side of medium, the straps on the medium width are so long that I had to cut an inch off the end up make them safe to wear. That means I lost the pull tab design feature at the end of the straps.

All in all comfortable. Not as strongly built as the brand I was used to buying, but that brand has gone downhill over the years as their cost has gone up.

This is a very handsome sandal. And light. Not overly wide. 'just a beautiful shoe. I believe the reason I opted for a different shoe was that the Teva and Merrill's that I tried+bought were overachieving on cinching me in enough for impromptu steep mountain run/hikes. With that being said, I suspect many of the readers would be very happy with this shoe.

The problem with larger sizes like 14 is that they are made for huge thick feet. So for people that have thin feet but just long toes, etc. the straps are always too long you run out of hook and loop contact and they hang off the sides of the show and stupid. And often it’s difficult to get them tight or snug. I’m keeping mine but there are more like loose flip flops rather than sandals. The style is really cool though. Good job on that.

Good

First, I recommend these shoes. I previously purchased a pair of Birkenstocks (had them in the 70s) and was disappointed, especially considering the cost. Quality of that product was excellent, but the fit was terrible. They always slip off my feet, no matter how tight I make the strap. I was looking for something that would not slip off and saw these on sale. For the price, I said, "whatever". To my surprise, over the next few weeks, whenever I needed to go out in a sandal, I would tend to put these on rather than the 3 other options I already had. They became my most used sandal simply because they worked the best, were comfortable, lightweight, and looked good. It was also nice to not worry about getting them dirty or sandy, etc.

Overall, these are nice and as expected. The footbed has nice cushion, the straps are wide and comfortable, they don't pinch my wide feet. The one thing that I would change is the sole. The plastic on the sole is hard enough to be a bit slippery on slick surfaces. Not an issue outside, but on tile or the like I notice it.

I just put them on. My wife loves the look, the quality and the soles. I'm not sure yet. I have been wearing Timberland sandals forever. I couldn't find my size online. They were sold out and I ended up buying these. I initially didn't like the looks or the way they felt on my feet. BUT my wife has the sense of style and quality. I trust her so much I'm going to keep them and get used to them before I judge any more. JUST BEING HONEST.... I'll check back in a month and let you know.

Sandals are great. I knew they would be, because I already had a pair and ordered the exact same thing. The delivery experience was less exemplary. UPS sent my shoes to Germany (yes, they really did) before bringing them back. So much for "next day".

Arch support felt in the right spot, but there was another support around the toe that did not align right for me. Soft material on foot bed was good though.

Nicely made sandals, but alas, I ordered them way too big...

Although the fit was good, the instep strap and heel strap are too long, resulting in unsightly overhang of the end of the straps.

Too big.

They seemed a bit short, I could stub my toe sometimes. My big beef was the lining fell apart quickly. They got wet once and that was it, it started coming off the footbed.

Good!

poor fit

I tried on them for 2 mins and decided to return them. Three things I don't like about these sandals: 1. The material is too rough and it hurts my feet. I'm wearing them bare foot. 2. The logo printed on the shoes' inside are too sticky. Really, what's the point of printing a logo there when nobody can see it? 3. Bottom line, the sandals feel slippery. I walk on wood floors so I care about this a lot. I do hope the manufacture can make better products in the future.
