I purchased a size 9 in the white and brown and although this is a beautiful sandal, the white was more of a light cream color. I found the heal to be a bit too ‘clunky’ and the top leather rubbed on my big toe, which was uncomfortable. I returned do to the lack of comfort but would have loved to have kept them based on the look.

I loved the style of these sandals, however, my feet are narrow and the sandals did not fit on the width so I am returning them ?

I am a true 6-1/2 (EU 37) with a narrowish B width foot. I tried both the blue and the champagne gold Sylvies.
The blue pair in this same style fit me like a glove in size EU 37/US 6, but the champagne gold pair was oddly loose across the top of my foot. Not sure if this was a width issue (if they would have felt right for someone with a wider foot), or if something was just off about these.
If the champagne gold Sylvie had fit the same as the blue, I would have kept them—they look great on, and are incredibly comfortable in the other colors that fit my foot.
I ultimately bought these in black elsewhere—perfect fit (just like the blue Sylvie) and great style.

Doesn’t work with narrow feet! These are so cute, buttery soft, well-made but I can’t add enough padding inside to get them to work with skinny feet. I even went down a size, and I could still wear socks in them LOL- not a good look.

For some unknown reason my feet slide way to far forward in these shoes, losing support and making them awkward to walk in. Another reviewer made this comment but I couldn't imagine how that would happen - trust me - it happened! Not comfortable to walk in for that reason.

Born are my favorite brand of shoes. They always have comfort and quality built in. These shoes are super stylish and easy to dress up or down. Love them!

Really cute shoes, just didn't quite work for me. I normally wear an 8.5, but had to order a 9 due to the lack of half sizes. They seem comfortable and made well though. The front rubbed my toes in a strange way, but this could have just been because they were a little too big.

It is a little large on me. The website recommended a size 10 and I could not figure out how to change it and look for a 9.5. I will have another hole made in the strap to make it fit better. The rest of the shoe feels great!

This was a tough decision. The shoes are wonderful in so many ways! The two-tone color is so versatile, and the heel height is perfect for a stylish pair of on-the-go sandals. The shoes were extremely comfortable from the moment I slipped them on my feet, and I could have immediately worm them all day without worry. BUT. . . I ultimately had to return them. The leather was SO soft and supple that my feet were already sliding down to the front of the shoe. From experience, I know that it will only be a matter of time before the upper will begin to stretch even more. Such a bummer, because I LOVE these shoes!

These are very cute and well-made shoes. The leather upper is buttery soft and supple, and very pretty in blue. I bought these in size 6, my usual size 6 (Euro size 36). I saw in the reviews that these did not fit those with narrow feet. I have very high arches and a wide forefoot, and so have no issues with my foot sliding around in these. The only negative thing is that the toe opening of the leather upper could badly irritate one's big toe, if it fell just in the right place. To prevent that, I have the straps tightened to max and shove my foot down so that my big toe clears the toe opening.

My new favorite sandals! Comfy out of the box with some slight rubbing on the toe that is going away with wear. They go with everything!

This shoe is very comfortable, stylish, and can go fancy or casual with a great denim!

Thought these were very cute and comfortable but when I tried them which capris felt that there was too much covering my foot for a short person; returning for this reason.

Born shoes will last pretty much forever. I wish they made 3+ inch heels. The summer sandals I've been wearing for more than 15 years are finally getting wobbly at the joints, which is so sad because they are still so comfortable and the soles are in perfect shape (even after hundreds of wears).

I love the Born brand and have several pair, however these do not compare with my other super comfortable Born shoes. My foot is somewhat narrow and my foot slips forward in the shoe making my toes rub against the lower edge of the silver leather upper. I would have returned them but took these on a trip and wore them expecting that they’d be fine. I need to line the upper with mole skin to help the issue but haven’t yet. Not super pleased with this pair.

These are kind of cute but I didn’t love them. I didn’t find them easy to walk in.
