Very comfortable and stylish. Only thing is the strap Velcro closure leaves too much overhang in order to tighten it securely on a smaller ankle.

Very comfortable, little too wide and long for me, also I wasn’t completely happy with the style. I felt the sandals almost look like an orthopedic shoe/sandal.

I bought the black ones -- I bought 2 pairs because I love them so much! These sandals are well designed for comfortable walking. They're also super cute and flattering, and I've received many compliments in them.
They're mostly very hardy too, which is important in an everyday shoe. Unfortunately, the foamy wedge material does start to give and "wrinkle" over time. It's sad because I seriously want to wear these forever, but they might not last.

I have problems with my feet & these sandals I can wear all day! Stylish & comfortable too! I may need a pair in a different color!

Comfortable, contemporary and cool. These sandals hit the mark for sporty and contemporary sandals that can be worn with a variety of looks. Well constructed and comfortable, like my Sorrel boots. Looking for other shoes or sandals now, I like these so much.

I loved the sandal the moment I put it on...but...I have small ankles and narrow heels. Therefore, this sandal cannot remain in my wardrobe, I am so disappointed I have to return them. The comfort was incredible the moment I tried it on - it felt like a soft cushion! For those who have narrow heels or thin ankles you may have problems since the strap does not allow you to tighten accordingly. I spoke with the CS rep and they were helpful with my return and assured me they would pass this along to the design team. Please keep us skinny ankle and narrow heeled females in mind when designing sandals.....along with where the strap cuts across the top of the foot. If we have had foot surgery comfort is the name of the game! This sandal was a winner except for the adjustable strap!!!

These sandals are soooooo freakin cute!!! I love the fact that they are almost like having sneakers on your feet without being fully covered up. Only issue with them is they are somewhat narrow and I know a size 10 would be a half size too big so I will just deal with it. Other than that they are comfortable to walk in and light on your feet believe or not.

I love these sandals and got so many compliments on them! I was hoping they would be my new wear all day walking sandals, but after a couple hours I started getting blisters. I have a slightly wider foot and these seem a bit narrow - my foot rubs against the edges of the sole in a weird way.

These are awesome looking- really had high hopes that they would work out- but they didn't work for me. The shoe itself is pretty narrow (my feet are not considered wide)-so when I put them on it felt like my feet were stuffed into them- felt like I was one of Cinderella's stepsisters trying on her ill-fitting glass slippers! Plus the strap across the top of the toes has no padding- so it rubbed and hurt the top of my foot- without even taking a step. Bummed as I thought these were really cool- had to send back. Please make a wider version, and with more padding for the foot contact points.

I thought these were a little strange looking, but I wanted to try them because I love platform sandals and hadn't been able to find any that worked for me.
I'm about a 10.5 or 11, depending on style (usually closer to an 11). I ordered the 11, and they were _huge._ Not only in length but width. I didn't realize that the front strap wasn't adjustable (my bad), and my foot just floated in it. (Just to be clear, I _do not_ have a narrow foot. My feet are flat, so the front of my foot spreads.)
The ankle strap was so long that I couldn't get it to be secure. (Again, I don’t have delicate ankles, so this was a surprise.)
I can't speak to comfort, because given the fit I couldn't even walk around properly.
All that said, the shoes are (weirdly) cute, and I'd have kept them if they had fit _and_ were comfortable. ;-)

They were very cute, but super narrow. If you have wide feet, these aren't the shoes for you. Had to return them.

These sandals are super cute and I thought would be comfortable for my very large arched feet, but alas, not nearly enough arch support for my size 9 feet, so back they go.

I wanted to love these sandals but the toe strap is wide and not very supportive. The sandals are sporty but hard to keep on. I wish the toe strap was adjustable.
Sadly I could barely keep my feet in them so I had to return

The top band rubs my big toe - I'm hoping that goes away. The Velcro strap around the ankle cannot be made small enough to secure it to my foot. Just because I wear a size 10 1/2, does not mean my ankles are large in girth.

I really wanted to love these shoes, but the fit was really off. The strap on the bottom, around your toes was really far down, so very loose. The strap on the top was adjustable, but still not a great fit. Weirdly enough the part where your heel sat was very narrow. I am a size 10.5 and unfortunately, I have found in the larger sizes the fit is off. If they were $50 shoes I would probably keep and just wear occasionally for looks, but not for this price. Sadly sending them back.

I liked the shoe; however the strap was attached at different places on the foot and had a different feel/hold. Sending back

Uncharacteristically narrow for Sorel shoes. WHY are all these companies making their cute styles so NARROW??? Stop it, Sorel!

My feet are wide but thin at the front. Did not work. The Sorel label detail also appears brighter on the photos (orange/red), but in person it was a faded peach color. The sole is the best feature, in terms of style. Overall = too $$$ for not total comfort.

a little on the snug side. They were comfortable when I just slid into them but after 2 minutes around my room i realized the front strap is stiff and a bit narrow. the overall shoe bed is a bit narrow for my wide-side-of-standard feet, and they looked a bit unflattering. I think the shoes look really cute. if my feet were a bit narrower, I'd probably buy a size up and enjoy them.

I had to return these sandals even though I loved the way they looked. The length fit but the strap around the ankle was too big and I could not fasten the hook and loop closure tight enough for it to stay secure on my foot. I was disappointed because this could have been fun footwear.
