They're good looking and will be potentially good for my feet but need a tremendous amount of breaking in. I'm grateful they haven't cut my feet like other styles and I keep coming back to Dr. Scholl's for style and the need for support. I keep trying!

Cute and comfortable! The strap closest to the toes does not have give to it and is slightly tighter than I like (which makes it a 4/5 for me). I don't think I could wear them all day walking around on vacation, however for typical outings they work well. Much more comfortable than my other flat sandals.

I usually wear a 7.5, but friend who had purchased said they ran big, so I bought 7

Super comfortable sandals. The front is leather so my blister sisters beware, but it didn't cause me any issues like I was expecting it too. The arch is very prominent which feels nice and supportive, but I ordered my normal size and they do feel a bit long. If I get my foot in the right place they're okay, but every now and then I was tripping over the toe.

Cute sandal. Unfortunately not enough arch support for my plantar fasciitis.

The edges of the soles had these small bumps which made it feel like I had small rocks underneath my feet and caused some irritation. I had to take a nail file to them and they were fine. Just do a quick inspection before wearing them out for the day

The footbed of these shoes is padded and so comfortable. The upper strap is well placed and flexible so it isn't bothersome. The lower strap across the bottom part of the foot is too loose and I am concerned that it will start rubbing against my foot after walking even a short distance. I will not be keeping these shoes because I don't want to take that chance.

I bought these to be my "house shoes", i.e., my slippers. I wish I could have some in other colors to use as street shoes. These are so very comfortable that I can actually walk rather than waddle most of the time. More costly than I would want to spend for my purposes but, since I am on my feet more in the house than out, it makes sense to invest in my feet, legs and back. Very pleased with my purchase.

I am returning because the front strap has rough edges and is rubbing my toe painfully.

I bought these this past weekend and have worn them twice. They felt comfortable and I was excited to wear them to work. Well, today (only the second time wearing them) I came home and noticed that part of the heel (The wrap around wood looking strap) is peeling off! I'm very annoyed because these were not cheap sandals to be breaking after the second wear! I've always had good luck with Sketchers, so maybe I'll need to go back to that brand.

I liked this shoe, and though some reviews mentioned that the elastic strap was too loose, I was hopeful that it would work for me because I have a very high instep. But the straps really aren't snug enough--despite the very comfortable footbed, I didn't feel stable in the shoe, and, as other reviewers say, it's bound to stretch and get looser. It's really too bad, as the footbed is really comfortable.

Cute shoes but the elastic stretched out pretty quickly and the front strap across my toes rubs.

I loved the sandals, and was disappointed that I had to send them back. I ordered my normal size 7m, but they were too wide. The length of the shoe was fine, but the width was not. My foot wasn't secure in the sandal. If the elastic would stretch with wearing, my foot would of slid all over the place.

At first try-on these sandals felt great. But there is no way to adjust the straps once these shoes get even more broken in. Without adjustable straps (velcro or buckle) these sandals won't hold up over time.

Decent Shoe. Wish the upper strap was around the ankle and not the foot. I feel like this would provide me with more support while walking. Also wish the lower strap was thinner so would rub on my toes less as I walk. Also there is a slight heel. I'm hoping this will flatten out as I break them in. Also size down. When determining my size they recommend a half size larger for me. Size down a half size.

Footbed not firm enough for my needs, straps are very comfortable. Cute shoe but just need firmer foot bed for long day comfort.

These shoes are cute and comfortable but make noise when I walk. The sole doesn't fit my foot well enough, I guess, and causes the whoosh of air sound as I walk.

LOOSE straps! Also, Zappos said 7 1/2 recommended, blocking out my 7, which I always wear. Oops, 7 1/2 too big and straps loose& non adjustable.

At first I thought these shoes were super comfy, the foot bed is really nice and supportive. Then I wore them on the first really warm day and the front toe strap is not elastic like the cross straps and it rubbed the tops of my toes raw.
