Disappointed
This was my second pair of Sam Edelman sandals. I was very happy with my first pair but very disappointed with this pair since the black coloring around the edge of the shoe is coming off. I have only had these sandals for a short time and have not worn them much. I noticed the black coloring coming off after only one day. I never get them wet either to cause this. I have tried filling them in with a black permanent marker but that even rubs off. I will not be purchasing another expensive pair of sandals if I am not going to receive good quality.

LOVE these sandals!!!
I bought my first pair a couple of years ago. These have been my favorite sandals. My step daughter got married in June. I took my old pair with me to dance with at the reception. I danced like crazy and they broke. No big deal I just went home bare foot lol. Sooooo I have been looking since June in the stores for this exact pair again. But no such luck here in TX. I then decided to go to the source. I have never been happier. Thank you Sam Eldleman not only for having my favorite sandals again BUT they were on sale and no SHIPPING. You guys are awesome and I cannot thank you enough. As a massage therapist I live in sandals when I can. These shoes back in my wardrobe has made me a happy camper ;-) Thank YOU!!

Cheap and ill-fitting
I regret buying these. I could not return them as I was ill for weeks before I could try them on. I can’t wear them, the strap is sudstandard my feet slip around. I own at least 9 pairs of Sams; great for wide BUT THIS SANDAL IS GARBAGE

Painful toe strap
I love this sandal, the snake skin material can add a little bit of sophistication to any outfit. The only thing I dislike are the straps between the toes. They are wide so they hurt the skin between your big toes. I'm hoping the more i wear them, the more they'll get broken in.

My Go-To Shoe
I honestly cannot count how many pairs of these I've owned over the years. I will cry if they are ever discontinued. I wear them until they break, which is always a very long time. I've had almost every color at one point or another. Living on the gulf coast, we have sandal weather from March to November. I live in these sandals. They go with almost everything and are easy to slip on without buckling and unbuckling if you set them up right. They are so comfortable, and I agree with the other reviewer that says there is something sexy about them. I've walked over six miles in them in one day many times with no problem. I always pack them when I am traveling in walkable cities (New Orleans French Quarter, San Antonio Riverwalk and Downtown, New York, Chicago). I've worn them to beaches and on light flat hikes in national parks. ***NB: they are very flat and offer no support, so this may not be as comfortable to everyone.*** I've also worn them to work, only slipping on my high heels when I have a client meeting. They are well-made. I always get compliments on them, and find myself frequently divulging the brand, model name, and where to purchase them.
Let me address some of the issues in the other reviews. 1) If you are not used to wearing this type of thong sandal, yes, they can be painful at first, but any shoe of this style will have the same issue. Once your feet get used to them and the toe piece breaks in a bit, it is like nothing is on your foot. 2) I have narrow feet, and the adjustable strap means they are able to fit my feet really well. I have recommended them to several friends, and my girlfriend that has feet so wide we call them Flinstone feet has now owned several pairs, and they fit her well too. If you have teeny ankles, I could see where you might need to buy a leather punch for around ten dollars on Amazon (I keep one around for belts and other shoes where I need a half-hole). If you have VERY thick ankles, these also might not work for you. I have lost a lot of weight, but when I was 225 I had thick ankles and these still fit well. 3) These shoes, by their nature, are very minimalist. They only have a strap around your ankle and down to your toe. Because of their style, they are not the most secure shoe out there. If that is what you need, pick another style with more straps across the foot.

Love these!
I love these sandals. Very comfortable and do not hurt my feet when I walk in them. Very good sandal for the price. Highly recommend getting these for spring and summer.
