Received these really fast, as usual. As they only come in whole sizes I ordered up but are way too large! Usually wear 7 1/2 and the leather ones usually fit in an 8, but these seemed like a 9! Guess I'll order a 7 and see how that works.

Strap felt harsh against my skin, material should be softer. Shoes felt too small on my average size foot.

So incredibly comfortable & good looking too, can wear all day & that is from someone with problem feet & overweight, so I have trouble with almost everything I put on my feet, but not with these, these have wonderful overall support & the arch support is terrific, the thong is comfortable, they look great on you, I bought all the colors they came in, wish they came in more colors!

I'd also recommend: Kenneth Cole Reaction Sandals (style groovy-glam & glam-athon) fit very well like these, but are dressier sandals, completly different than these sandals

For years I have been wearing standard $20 flip flops, and now that I'm in my 30s, my legs and knees just can't hack it anymore. After spending a day in my cheapo flip flops and having achy legs to show for it, I was determined to find a pair of non-hideous looking flips with actual arch support. That turned out to be no easy task. I ordered so many pair of flips from Zappos that my husband said they were going to cut me off. Luckily they did not and I found these. They're lightweight, supportive, and (as the shoe itself says) built to get wet. I've been living in these on weekends and have thrown the old junk out.

I agree with the comments of another customer. I absolutely loved these flip-flops in every way and was impressed by how the soles were really comfortable and followed the contour of the soles of my feet. But I must return them because my feet are wide and since the straps are not leather, they will not be able to stretch much. I have slightly thick feet, too. This reminds me of how it feels to almost find Mr. Right but then discovered that it was not meant to be!

So comfortable!! A slightly wider fit would have been nice but they will stretch some as I wear them. I would buy again!
