I got them, wore them right out of the box to walk about six miles today. (I'm in Florida - it's warm here.) And I wish the front straps were adjustable - they're the slightest bit loose, but oh boy am I happy to have these shoes. I think these are going to be my workhorse shoes this summer.

I look forward to the posts to come telling me that my husband hates me and you are laughing. I don't care! I'm so happy about these sandals. I wish they came in some bright colors - yellow?? - so I could get those, too.

What sandals are you looking at this year - for walking, for travel, to horrify fellow DCUMers, to look pretty at dinner, whatever.


I have very bad plantar fasciitis, so I wear Bare Traps Rebound Technology sandals. I have about 20 pairs of them in many colors. They are cheap and last maybe one season, but they fit my feet perfectly, and I can walk for miles in them. They are not beautiful, but look OK enough.

Those Sanitas, though. I'm glad they are comfy, but they look like something that really weird girl in my 7th grade gym class wore way back when. Sorry. They are not pretty. BTW, Dansko has some very pretty sandals! My local shoe store stocks them, and I'm going to get some soon before they all sell out.

Very nice, but you must have young, healthy feet. Mine are old and weak, so I can't wear such cute sandals!!

I can only do ankle if the straps are thin
Otherwise it just truncates the leg...


I can't see anything about those sandals that makes them worth $800.

I love both. Excellent choices.

I love these. But I'm over 50, and would break my ankle if I wore them. If you're on the fence, get them! They are great! I'd wear them all summer!

Birks are great. I have a silver pair that I wear all summer. Nearly worn out by now.

Most of theses are hideous (but comfy) looking, but that Cole Haas "Jitney" sandal is actually cute. I'd be curious how supportive they are. I might track them to see if I can find them on sale (they aren't cute enough for $160 IMO).

Agree 100%. These are the only sandals posted on this thread that I would even consider, although some of the heels posted have been cute. You probably won’t appreciate someone like me agreeing with you though, because I tend to like old lady sandals.

Wide feet don’t get as many cute options. Sad but true.
