Customer Reviews Gentle Souls by Kenneth Cole Orya

Outstanding look, leather inside and outside. Could have been fantastic shoes but run very narrow. I own a previous version of this style from several years ago, with lower wedge and more rounded toe box. While this newer version looks more stylish, comfort went down because designers did not realize that increasing wedge height would put ankle at ever so slightly different angle to the back portion of the shoe with the zipper; now zipper digs into my ankle. Also, the toe box is narrower and narrows uniformly throughout shoe length instead of the very end, thus squishing all toes. Also, difference between sizes is huge. I wear 7M and 7.5M in all shoes, but these ones are too narrow in 7 to wear while 7.5 is comfortable width but longer by 1/2 inch and fall off my feet. Strangely, the ankle straps on 7.5 are much looser than on 7, so I cannot keep 7.5 and just put toe fillers in them. Heartbroken to send them back as style and quality wise they are exactly what I have been looking for and hard to match!

Back is quite high and scratches the skin off. Also, the shoes are too heavy for me, felt like I'm carrying weight attached to my feet.

Great espadrille. My usual size was too big, had to return and size down by 1/2 size.

Shoe fits very well, the crisscross bands hold my foot in place comfortably. Very cute style, & the metallic leather gives it a slightly dressier look than the average espadrille.

These are very good looking but run large. I needed to go down a size.

Love these shoes -- perfect color, perfect heel height, just a 1/2 size too big for me.

Cute, but elastic strap stretches when you walk causing sandle to flop around .

Felt too big with gaps all around in my regular size.

These adorable shoes are a great fit everywhere except for the ankle straps which are way too tight!! Sad.
