Wow, these are so comfortable! The fit is perfect, and the wedge is super stable and easy to walk in. I don't want to take them off! A perfect three season shoe to wear with everything! Can't wait to wear these!! Had to reorder a 1/2 size down from my normal size. Also, they smell pretty bad right out of the box but I think they'll air out just fine.

These shoes manage to be both sexy and comfortable at the same time. The platform height at the ball of your feet minimizes the 4" heel, making them easy to wear for long periods of time, and they're super stylish. I'm in my early 50's and find that I can easily wear this higher heel because the fit of the ankle straps and design of the heel make this shoe very stable for walking. It's a great summer sandal that can dress casual outfits up and make dressier outfits look less formal -- looks great with both pants and skirts!

Love these shoes and I ordered them one day and they came in the mail the very next day. Can't beat zappos service.

Super cute, and comfy from the first wearing. A little rubbing on my heel area where the shoe hits high in the back, but nothing a bandaid wouldn't cure until it breaks in some from more wearing. A great summer wedge that will also transition well into the very warm Fall in my neck of the woods.

I am 5 3 and in high school (now 52) people called my legs looking like golf clubs. If you have legs like that, the straps up the ankle will be too big and gap.

I love them. I can walk in them. They make me ridiculously tall and my stems look awesome. Such a fun summer shoe! There's some rubbing, but that can be resolved with moleskin. They are tight around my foot for a snug fit that doesn't make me feel like I'll slip out of them. I would walk in a city for the day with them. I wouldn't run, but I'd walk. And it would be good. Buy them!

Love the style and color of these shoes. Only negative is that the back is a little high on my heels and rubs a little...hoping they will break in with a couple more wearings.

Every year I search high & low for the best neutral, casual sandal. These are awesome! Had to exchange and go a half size down from my normal 8. The first day they are a little uncomfortable but they broke in quickly and I have no problems now.

Ordering shoes online can be iffy but in this case I scored! These sandals are so comfortable I could wear them all day long. Love them!

I was a bit disappointed at the quality of the leather. Didn't fit my long, narrow foot very well. It looked good on my foot, but this is not the pair for me.

These are much heavier and slightly smaller than the Zoom Streak 2s that I have been wearing. They look so cool - but they are just not for me.

This shoe is on a curved last which may not work for some feet which need a straighter and roomier base. The shoe has a glued in liner which can be removed but in trying to use an orthotic under the liner the shoe is too tight across the midfoot most probably because of the curved last. The shoe runs at least one half size small. The heel feels quite soft, perhaps too soft. The shoe uses a very airy mesh which will be cooler for summer running.
