Customer Reviews Steve Madden Irenee Sandal

Very cute shoe (got it in pink patent) but very uncomfortable. No padding at all under heel and ball of foot. Ankle strap is only made for those with skinny ankles - I had to place the buckle on the last hole to fit but I knew once I wore these after an hour the strap would be cutting into my ankle. I loved the color and the blocky heel made the heels very stable, so I'm disappointed it failed with comfort.

Pretty but did not really go with the outfit

unfortunately shoe was very uncomfortable for me so I have to return

Loved the shoe and fit true to size. However, the ankle strap was way to short. Could not wear so back they go.

Nice shoe, but the back of shoe at heel was uncomfortable, had to return

Really beautiful shoe! However, the back really dug into the back of my heels. Not at all comfortable.

Unfortunately returning these, the toe strap was comfy and didn’t squish my toes, which is really hard to find in a nice dress shoe, but the heel/ankle part came up too high and was really uncomfortable.

The shoe is adorable! BUT the back goes up entirely too high on the ankle with absolutely no give. Every step was uncomfortable as it rubbed my ankle. Perhaps it would break in but I couldn't take that chance.

daughter doesn't like the hard back into her ankle. All else was fine

Ankle strap was so small I couldn’t fit it around my ankles. Shoes were also too narrow and I have a narrow foot.

Wow, these are tight! Love the woven fabric look of these, but the fit just isn't right. :( I have very narrow feet, so sandal shopping is difficult because I'm always sliding through the strap(s) at the front and the ankles are usually loose -- this is not a humble brag, it's the only part of me that's skinny -- but even in a size 10 the ankle strap was very tight on the last notch. The front strap was however perfectly fitted. Wish these had a better placed ankle strap b/c I envision them stretching the elastic on the closure and breaking while I'm walking into dinner. Will be returning.

I was hopeful about these shoes as they were marked wide width and have a low chunky block heel. The width felt like it was regular standard size width and the part of the shoe above the zipper (that rests on the back of your ankle) would have given me blisters within minutes if I had kept these shoes (has happened to me before.)

Disappointed in the leather. It was uneven leather on one of the shoes.

These boots run small and very narrow in the toe box. While I could order a half size up and they would probably fit, I am opting to reutrn them as there is no cushion in the footbed and the leather is super stiff.

The toe strap was narrow and very stiff. I returned them.

Very pretty. But hurts my Achilles’ tendon. Gives me a scab every time. Not comfortable to wear because of that. Even for short periods.

Good, but picture showed patent leather. Disappointing

I wanted to like these shoes, but there was no support at all from the toe strap. I seriously thought my foot was going to fall out of the shoe! The heel height is perfect for me, however the shoe feels super cheap. I am returning these.

I bought these for a wedding based on recommendation from a podiatrist. I have a "AAAA" heal, meaning my foot is extremely narrow. While I love the heel height, I was disappointed in the strap across the toe. I literally worried that my toes were going to fall out. As for the strap, I had it on the most loose setting or hole, and it was still uncomfortably tight. I will be returning these shoes.

Wore for 12 hours at a wedding and had huge blisters on my pinkie toes. Wouldn't recommend wearing for long periods of time.

Color in photo was NOT even close to the color of the shoes when I opened the box...

It was longer than my feet, loose around the heel, and a little narrow just above the toes. I am so disappointed because this is a truly fashionable shoe that I've been trying to buy multiple times in different brands.

Strap is too small and flimsy.

I want the exact shoe but comfortable. Steve Madden are always uncomfortable but they are cheap. `I would rather pay an extra $100 or more and get a comfortable shoe
