Soft leather. Comfortable. Great casual shoe if looking for something casual vs. athletic shoes.

I have one neutral and I just got the IWA with straps in turquoise- the fit snug - I like this because they eventually fit your foot. I wear a 7.5 but bought the 7. Great shoe

Since there was not a half size ordered one size up. A little bit bigger than I like but one size down would have been too small. Overall love the sandals, very comfortable

Bought my usual size and the fit is perfect, I marked them as narrower than expected because I have slightly narrow feet and they fit me well. It’s possible that on an average ‘medium’ width foot they might feel snug but I doubt it would be a big problem as the leather is very supple and molds to the contours of the feet without squeezing or pinching. This is the first pair of Born shoes I’ve bought and I looked for them specifically because they have a reputation for great comfort. Not only are they incredibly comfortable, I really love this style. My only complaint is that I would love to see Born switch to vegan leather. There is plenty of high quality vegan leather available that looks and feels and lasts just as well as animal leather.

I usually wear 8 - 81/2 and the 8 in these are perfect. So buttery soft and comfortable from first wear.

Super comfortable! The leather is so soft and the cushion of the footbed is amazing. The color is just as expected. I hope the zipper on the heel holds up, that's the only thing I am unsure of because they are a bit difficult to zip.

The leather is so soft and the footbed has nice cushion, typical of born sandals. The zipper is a bit stiff but I expect that will get better with wear. These are very snug, especially in the upper, but more like a hug. I have fairly narrow feet so it’s fine for me and keeps them from being floppy, which I was worried about, but might not work for those with wide feet.

So comfortable! The leather is buttery soft. I wear them to work when I want something a bit more covered than a sandal. Thinking about getting a second pair
