Customer Reviews Nisolo Huarache Sandal

Be advised that the Burnt Sienna color doesn't match the multi-view photos of the shoe itself -- a rich-looking reddish brown -- but it does match the color on the photo of the model's legs -- a dull brown. And the pebbled leather is not attractive. Disappointed. I want to support an admirable company like Nisolo.

Im hoping these eventually break in! I have to wait weeks between trying to wear them to let my blisters heal... theyre super cute though and will be a fav if they get more comfy

The leather is a little more plasticky-looking than I'd like, and they have been pinching as they break in. I don't know. I really like the look of other Nisolo shoes but these just aren't so pretty.

These shoes are absolutely beautiful, look great with every outfit, with exceptional quality of materials and craftsmanship.... but unfortunately not great for sensitive feet. I got my normal size 7.5 and they're the perfect length, but very narrow, so my average-width feet are painfully squished and the leather side straps cut into my toes. They're stretching a bit with wear, but are still very snug. They'll have to stretch A LOT to be comfy. Also, the footbed is very flat - no cushion or arch support. Overall, a beautiful shoe, but for me... comfort is just as important as looks.

I love the natural leather and how this shoe looks. After a few wears its still pretty painful on the sides of my feet. Im not sure if I need to break it in longer, but the leather really digs into my feet.

I like this sandal for its sturdy construction and cute design. However, the color was more of a chocolate brown than the color shown, and theres not a lot of cushion to the sole. Still a high quality shoe.

I ordered these but they run small. They also appear to be a lower quality of leather than a Similar pair I bought from another store bob Ellis

Unfortunately just like the other pair of Nisolo shoes I tried these are much better looking than they are comfortable. The heel fits nicely in my usual size (9) but the toe box is super shallow. They were uncomfortable immediately just standing in them so I can't imagine what it would be like after walking around. I understand that leather softens and breaks in with time, but at this price point they should be comfortably constructed and require only minimal breaking in.

They were not as comfortable as I was hoping. My pinky toe separated on of the sides and sticks out a bit. The heel is a bit small for me. I love the cause and design. There are not for long walks

The sandal is adorable but I have found that the leather is quite stiff and it does quite a number on my feet. It could just be I need to break them in still but the back of the shoe likes to his that soft spot on the ankle

I ordered three different sizes of this shoe before I found the right fit. I really loved them but the sizing was not my usual size. I usually wear an 8 but it was extremely tight, so I ended up exchanging for a 9, which was way too big, and then settled with and 8.5. Hoesntly, theyre still pretty tight and Im hoping they stretch a little more. I also got a pretty bad sore from the heel rubbing against my skin. I love the mission of the company and the look of the shoe so Im willing to stick it out with these shoes, but for the price I paid, I wish they were more comfortable. If you have wide feet like me theyll probably be a bit tight no matter what.

3.5 stars- I saw these shoes on an internet search and fell in love with them. I read the reviews prior to purchasing and noted that based on customer feedback its new design was more true fit. I ordered my regular size and they were very tight. But I decided to keep them and try to stretch them out by wearing them around the house. Its been a month of intermittent indoor wearing and they are slowly getting looser. My mistake is that I should have exchanged them immediately, but I was hopeful they would stretch out sooner. I just hope that they dont loose their shape by the time they are comfortable to wear daily.

These are cute. I needed half size down to keep them from slipping off but the leather is very stiff and causes blisters on the heel. Too bad because now I'm afraid to wear them.

I really wanted to like these shoes, they're beautiful. I ordered the 7.5 and I had to wear socks with them at first to stretch a little but they are still very stiff and not comfortable. Also, the "pinky toe" placement! My toe pushes out from the side, not cute. I recently went to down to TJ and bought huaraches for obviously way less. I'm just disappointed for how much these shoes cost compared to the actual quality and comfort. The worst part is it takes awhile to wear in and even see if you should keep them, which is then nonreturnable.

The most painful shoes I've ever tried to break in. I have a bunion, so not a normal foot shape, and they are slowly stretching out, but I'm starting to worry they'll never actually be comfortable. More of a me issue than a shoe issue, but may be helpful for other people with sensitive feet.

I wish these shoes were softer and not so stiff. The insoles are very flat and hard. They are cute though, but I cant wear them for very long or walk very far.

Beautiful shoe but runs small ( tight) and has zero support. Sadly I had to return mine.

I first bought my regular size and the shoes were too big to wear. So I returned them for a half size smaller. These new ones seemed to fit okay but when I wore them I got horrible blisters. The heel is very stiff and Im not sure Ill be able to wear them. Im disappointed because they were expensive but wore like cheaper shoes

I am somewhere between a 7 and 7&1/2, ordered a size 7, and the pair I received are too small & painfully so, so I will be returning them, unfortunately. The color is lighter than in the photos. I would prefer the bands of leather to be slimmer, they feel slightly clunky being so thick, the style reminds a bit of orthopedic shoes.
