The most comfortable sandal I've ever worn. I have Rheumatoid Arthritis but I'm still athletic and young. I don't want to wear shoes that look geriatric. These are sporty cute and extremely comfortable. I got the black and off white pair. Spilled an entire glass of red wine on the white pair and it rinsed out completely too ! Plus!

I’m a true 9.5 but narrow so purchased a 9 based on some reviews saying it was wide. I didn’t find it to be wide and the straps are adjustable (all except the 1st band across the top that’s leather. The 9 was a bit too short. The 9.5 was perfect. (This actually fit better than the Kenetic sandal, which dangled on my narrow foot)
Very comfortable super sporty. Love it. Thanks Zappos for being so easy to work with on returns and exchanges!

I love the shoes. But I was not able to keep them. I have a average width foot. They are to wide in the ball of my foot. You can not adjust them. I had to return them.

These shoes are super comfy and look even better in person than in the online pictures. I wear an 8 in everything except a couple of European brands but went with the 7-1/2 in these after trying both. My foot is just slightly wider than average but these seem to run wide so going down a half size worked for me. The straps across the foot and ankle make it easy to adjust the fit and hold my feet in place.

Love these shoes! They're like wearing running shoes but no need for hot socks and so much cooler. Highly recommend. I think I will buy all the colors.

I have a narrow foot and honestly, the length was okay and the foot bed width seemed to be ok until I tried to tighten the ankle strap . The velcro on the strap overlapped the velcro to which it was to affix itself by a good inch so I will be sending them back. I had really hoped they would work out. Really like the citron color as well.

I just got these today and wore them for a few hours and I love them! The straps are adjustable so after about an hour I felt some rubbing and just re-adjusted the strap, perfect. I love the color, true to the photos. They’re very lightweight but I feel sturdy walking in them. True to size.

these are sandals that feel like a sneaker. I have chronic pain issues, and wearing sneakers all the time is a bummer. these are my best purchase in a long time. the orange color is also very fun!

Super comfortable - absolutely no "breaking in" period needed, very stylish, sporty and edgy, and I feel very solid-grounded in them - not TOO soft of a sole where you feel like you're going to turn your ankle or stumble. Great purchase!

I bought these for a recent trip to Disney world. I have RA and sometimes tennis shoes are too restricting when I swell. It's a challenge to find good comfy shoes. These were a god-send. Comfortable for walking all the miles we walked while in the parks. I would suggest sizing up 1/2 a size. I originally wear a 7.5 but had to exchange for an 8 as my toes were at the very edge and I personally like a little more room.
Can't say enough good things about these. Well worth the investment.

Poor advice to size down for myself. I have a round ankle. I will size up a half size and see if that works for me.

I loved these, unfortunately the ankle strap is designed only for women with huge ankles. The strap is WAAAY to long, and the small piece of Velcro that secures it doesn't allow for much adjustment in size. I have what I think area average size ankles and the ankle strap was approx. 3-1/2 inches too long with no way to adjust it. They are super cute, and would have been comfortable if I were able to secure them at the ankles.

I wore this shoe in Miami and I took a Segway tour. The shoes weren't comfy during the Segway tour. I ended up taking them off and readjusting a few times. I won't return them because they are excellent for what I need and I like the style. I walked on the beach with them and even though they aren't high on my list for comfort, I like them enough to keep them

The looks of these are a bit unorthodox but I thought they were cute and looked sporty. When I first put them on I thought they were very comfortable BUT as soon as I walked around in them, they started rubbing my ankle bone and by the bunion area of my foot. it became downright painful. So sad because I wanted them to work so bad!

I love Sorel shoes. Been wearing since the early 1980's when I purchased my first Sorel boots for ski country. But the Women's Kinetic Impact Sandel is a huge disappointment, Ut kiijs gird and the sole wears like a glove walking on a cloud, but the upper band digs into my ankles and the front of my let. While I love the comfort of the shoe, the irritation left from the band caused me to send the handle back. comfort must be not just the lower half of the shoe: it must be a comfortable fit from toe to heal and top to bottom, and this sandle is just too painful at the top.
Disappointed,

I found these by chance two months ago, and just bought my fifth pair. As someone who struggles with balance and double vision because of an autoimmune disease called myasthenia gravis and a recent broken ankle, I have to have shoes that attach to my feet that have support and a bonus if they look cool. These fit the bill! They are so comfortable and fun and stylish. On the lookout for the last two colors :-)

These are so comfortable! I love that they are strappy, give a little added height, and are super cushy on the feet! I bought a size 7 which is my usual size and they fit perfectly.
I wore these on a 3 mile walk in the park and it was comfortable the whole time.
The white pair go well with summer dresses, jeans and all sorts of casual wear. They're fairly light, so good for packing in your suitcase.

I love! haven't worn outside yet, as I bought for a trip, but right out of the box they are comfy and fun. I will plan to wear them with skirts, dresses, fitness wear, and shorts. I can wear anything from a 7.5-8.5 in varying brands, and I bought the 8 and 8.5 to see which would be best, and the 8 fit well, and actually felt like it was a "big" 8, I am returning the 8.5.
