These are truly an "elevation" in footwear. They feel so comfortable and they raise you up for style and sophistication whether with a pair of jeans or a skirt. I would have liked a bit more velcro to secure my narrow ankles, but the support is quite wonderful so using the end of the of the velcro pad works okay. I matched these with a new "Sundance belt" in a tannish color with a beautiful silver buckle. These I will wear with a smashing blouse embroidered with red and yellow flowers on a light blue background paired with some skinny dark denim jeans, all to my granddaughters college graduation in May. I am 82 and now look 60. So can you--treat yourself!

This shoe looked like it was comfortable on the video, but it has a hard sole that does not give. The design is funky. I could have liked it if it had had a squishy and comfortable sole.

I was a bit hesitant about keeping them, until I put them on and walked around. Oh my, very comfy on my medium to wide feet. Too Cute, I usually wear an 8.5 in sandals, and ordered 8.5 and they fit just right. Love them. I'm a stylish 72, but in my heart still 30. Would love another pair in a different color too. I ordered black with the yellow stripe on the bottom.

Best shoes I have ever purchased. Everywhere I go on a daily basis I get asked what brand and what store have Sorel shoes and boots. I have 4 pairs of these in different colors. Love them and love my Sorel winter boots. I wear them for walking two miles daily, with jeans or casual wear, and also a long dress. I wear a size 7 and these fit perfect.

My feet are a size 6 by measurement. I have flat, wider feet so I usually wear a 7.5 in sneakers and boots. The 7.5 fit perfectly. While there is no apparent arch support, the footbed is soft and comfortable. The strap over the toe is just right. These are super cute and so different looking. I haven’t taken a long walk in them yet except for inside the house. They are comfortable so far.

I really like this sandal. The arch support is great. I wore these for the first time for 10 hours straight and my feet never tired or ached.

I am obsessed with these shoes. Although I am a 51 year old mom, I’ve gotten many complements on these from random strangers on the NYC subway. Now my sister is buying a pair.

I absolutely love these sandals, they are exactly what I was looking for! I have giant size 11 feet and these make my feet still look cute and stylish as well as being extremely comfortable! Only thing I would change is the Velcro needs to be longer on the top strap because it's only connecting by a centimeter but so far they haven't fallen off and I will probably just sew on some extra Velcro so they feel more secure. I feel like these sandals will last forever!

They are high but stable. The soles stick out farther than your heel and therefore may not be safe on stairs. I should send them back but they are too much fun to resist!

The sandal is cute, however the ankle strap area was a bit to close rubbing on my ankle bone so I returned. Otherwise I would have bought.

I love the look of these sandals and really wanted them to work. The style is terrific! But in person they just seemed cheap. I know I won’t enjoy wearing them, so I’m returning.

Loved these shoes. The look is great and they would be comfy if you have a narrow foot. Unfortunately I had to return because I have wide feet. Wish they came in a wide width version because they are oh so cute

Nice comfort, but I have wide ankles and the strap barely fit. Too bad the strap wasn't a titch longer.

Best sandal I own. Comfortable, cool, and fun! I wore them to work and everyone fell in love with them. My sneaker head friend even said they were cool. I wore them all day and my feet didn't hurt at all. I love these so much!

In LOVE with these. Finally for the first time clunky wedges that don't make my size 10 feet look like clown feet. Stylish, comfy, --- my favorite shoe! A friend wore them for a biz trip and bragged so much, I had to try them. She was right!

These sandals are very comfortable and light. The first day I wore them I was at a conference all day and my feet were happy all day. My only with is that the sole was black, not white. I have big feet and it is a lot of white, but the comfort is worth it.

Insanely comfortable and I love the modern styling. I wish there was a version that was equally comfortable but slightly less athletic in appearance for work. But otherwise, it’s a fantastic sandal.

I usually dont write reviews, but I feel the need to share my experience. I wore the Kinetic sandals for 3 consecutive days at Disney parks, walking 7+ miles each day and spending 8-10 hours on my feet. Unfortunately, I ended up with blisters on both feet, and the sides of my feet were sore. Theres little cushioning or relief, making them uncomfortable for long wear. I didnt bring an extra pair of shoes, so I had to push through the 3 days. I used bandages and moleskin to cover the sore spots. I wore my usual size 8, and they fit true to size. I am returning these sandals.
