Buy these!
These sandals are so comfortable and cute! I love the color and the fact that you can adjust them. I ordered my regular size and they fit perfectly! There is no rubbing on my feet or toes. They are made well and have a great arch support and the thickness of the sole is perfect.

Nice walking sandal
Nice and light, good support and slip proof. Seem very comfortable but won’t know until I break them in. Wrapping around the big toe seems tight but maybe it will loosen a bit with time. Overall, great walking sandal.

Wide and Sweaty Feet Approved!
TLDR:- Do not require breaking in period- Friendly for Wide feet people- No blisters- Friendly for sweaty feet people- True to size- Good support and bounce feedback- Hand washing and air drying is recommended for lifespanOut of the many strappy "walking/ hiking/ travel" friendly sandals that I've tried, I have to say that these are still a great contender being a top pick especially if you suffer from WIDE FEET like I do. My bunions make it really hard for me to find the perfect pair of shoes, let alone a travel sandal.The fabric is ultra soft and I have to say that using them daily on a 3-week trip in Vietnam was really great. They're lightweight on the feet, have good feedback when you're walking around, and are very comfortable to stand in for hours on end. I didn't get blisters anywhere on my feet which was truly a miracle because I also suffer from SWEATY feet. The design makes it so that you get enough airflow when walking to help dry the feet, even when it's hot and humid outside. The sizing is pretty true to size. I'm a real 9 and the 9 fit, but the the toe box space was short compared to other brands. If you try to go up in length with a 9.5 or 10, it won't work because the back heel part is what gets extended, not the toe box.I only came across two issues:1. The particular unit that was sent to me had one of the bands that's located on the top of the foot is sewn together with another band which caused a 'weak point' in the integrity of the strap. Usually, all the strongs are continuous strips so that it's nice and tough, but since this one in particular had two short pieces stitched together, it already was prone to wear and damage. The seam started splitting after several uses of the sandal. I believe this is a quality control issue that should be addressed by the company.2. Due to the nature of the design of have a toe wrap, it takes a little longer to put on the sandal. You gotta wiggle your toe in and tighten the strap buckle. I'm used to other designs without a two wrap when you can just slide your feet in within seconds, where taking it off and putting it on is super quick. This may be something to consider if you're traveling to parts of Asia where you'll be entering homes or temples often that require you to take off your shoes. This is a minor thing to consider, but I thought it was important to bring up.Overall, I'm happy with the beige color, but would absolutely LOVE it if they came out with chocolate/ deeper browns. The versatility of the sandal offers amazing value for the price and the bonus is that it's pretty lightweight so that you can pack them in a travel backpack/ bag and bring them anywhere you go without too much fuss.

Great for adventure
I bought these sandals for a trip to Costa Rica, so I’d have something that would be comfortable, durable, and good for water. These did not disappoint. They came true to size, and were very comfortable. They were prefect for jumping into waterfalls, hikes along the ocean, and thermal pools with lava rocks. Highly recommend if you’re looking for sandals that are cute and good for adventure.

Great for plantar fascitis!
I was wary to purchase these shoes, because reviews were limited and difficult to find on the internet, even on the main website for the shoe brand. Based on reviews for other sandals by the brand, I made the choice to try these and hope that they would work for my upcoming vacation. I was not disappointed! I was diagnosed with plantar fasciitis within the last year and have been using inserts in my shoes for a while. This was my first time venturing into sandals to help plantar fasciitis without the use of inserts, because I wanted a nice sturdy shoe for walking around and for comfort during long drives on the trip. I have worn them for two days now to get them broken in before the trip, and here is what I observed.Pros: The support on these shoes is amazing for plantar fasciitis, and I actually feel a bounce in my step when I walk. The fabric straps are more sturdy than appears in the picture, and hold your foot in the shoe surprisingly well. I even tried running with the shoes and my feet did not slip out in any way. BTW, the straps are adjustable, which is a bonus. The strap on the back of the foot is soft and does not rub me in any way, which is something I am picky about. Also, the strap that goes between your toes is really comfortable.Cons: Although these shoes are supportive and great for walking around town or maybe even a light trail, I don't know if I would use these for hardcore trails due to lack of ankle support and how open they are on top of the shoe. It is just fabric straps crossed over each other. I have not tried them on the trip yet, so using them in water and walking long distances has yet to be truly tested. I have only used them in daily activities so far. The fabric straps, although soft and comfortable, take a little getting used to at first, but I already feel that they are stretching to my foot. I do notice slight pressure on my small toes at first when I put them on, but then again I have sensitive feet. However, I have no rub marks or blisters as of yet anywhere on my foot, which is a good sign. The shoes are not super easy to slip on and off, because you have to adjust the straps slightly each time you put them on and it has a good grip on your big toe. This may be a hindrance if you are planning on wearing these to the airport and have to throw them on quickly after going through the checkpoint. Perhaps this is a good thing though, because you can be sure it is not falling off your foot anytime soon.I can't say for sure how they would fit a wide foot, because I'm average, but the straps are stretchy, so that's a good thing. I can attest that they are true to size. I am normally a size 9 and 9 fit perfectly without my foot hanging over or having extra room. I hope this review helps someone looking for arch support. I would definitely consider trying some other shoes by this brand in the future as well. :)
