These run big, but I knew that and ordered 1 size down. The straps are soft and comfy the first time that they are worn, and the tread on the bottom gives some shock absorbtion and wear, I have a black and brown pair, I love 'em.

Comfortable sandal but note that it does run quite large. At least a full size large.

They definitely run big. I wear a 9.5, the smallest size available in brown was a 9, and they fit nicely, but I think an 8.5 would have been even better. I have a wide foot, so it's great that the straps in the middle of the shoe are adjustable. They are soft and comfortable right out of the box, so no need to break them in. Love them!

This is an awesome shoe, but definitely get a full size smaller than you usually wear. I wear 9-9.5, read the reviews and ordered an 8 - fits perfectly.
Very soft and comfortable. Doesnt make your feet look bigger. Ellegant and edgy at the same time. Love it!

the straps were flimsy, hard to buckle and they run really large. I usually wear a size seven, but my toes didn't even past the last strap on this shoe. they were quite a bit bigger than my foot, even though they were a size 7. If they fit, I do think I'd really like them, though. They felt like they would be comfortable, the soles were nice and except for the flimsy buckling, they felt pretty nicely made. (I also like the shape of their buckles.)

Madame big foot here, didn't trust the reviews and only went down half a size, just to find out that the reviews were completely accurate.
Very cool shoes...a great pair if you had to give in to the gladiators.
Once you get the right size . . .

this sandal is really nice. I originally ordered them a half-size smaller than usual and they were still too large. I sent those back and ordered them in a smaller size.

Finally -- a cute gladiator sandal with a substantial rubber sole that you can actually wear for hours! It runs a full size large. I"m a 9, and the 8 fits me perfectly. The patent leather straps do not dig or chafe, the footbed is comfortable, and the style is totally utilitarian chic.

They feel like they will be comfy once I get another 1/2 size smaller (already ordered 1/2 size smaller, = 1 full size large!) Only reason I put wide width is that the straps do not have enough holes for the thin foot, as I have. Sole is adequate width. Appear well-made, and footbed is padded and comfortable. Why such variation is shoe sizes? (Had to order full size larger in Bloch city roll-up ballet.)

Shoe runs big--I am a true size 10 and ordered a 9 1/2--a little difficult to buckle.

I wear an 11 in some styles and a 12 in others, I guess maybe I'm an 11.5? Anyway, this sandal is gorgeous, it goes with almost everything in my closet, and most of all it's COMFY and I don't worry about my toes sticking over the edge. It makes my feet look ultra-feminine, which I love.
The shoe runs slightly large (like a half-size to a size), so keep this in mind when you buy.
Otherwise, did anyone read the writing on the box? "the destination is the journey"...fantastic!!
Most comfortable shoe status

I'm amazed at the support my feet get in these sandals. I have a very high arch, and they were supported perfectly all day- no foot pain whatsoever at the end of the first day. I hope these come in a lot of colors, I'm going to have to get more eventually. and they're even great-looking on- doesn't get much better than that.

Very comfortable sandal. I wear between a 10 and 11 so I bought the 10 and even with that they run large. I wore them shopping and walked for a good 4 hours and they were as comfortable as a sandal that was well broken in- no blisters or discomfort at all.
These sandals are darling and BIG

I wear a size 6, which left me about two inches still to go in the toe. I was disappointed to learn they don't come in size 5 because that would be the only way I'd be able to fit into them. Account for this when you order.

I heeded the remarks of the first reviewer and ordered a size down, even though I had my doubts. I'm glad I didn't listen to my gut this time because the size 6 I went with fit my size 7 foot like a glove. Haven't had the chance to wear them for longer than 5 minutes since they just arrived today, but so far, they seem like they'll be comfortable and durable.

This sandal is very well made and constructed, it just runs too large. Buy the next size down.
