Ordering and delivery was great!!

Ordering and delivery was great!!
My only concern in my opinion, the bed of the sandals are too slippery. When walking my feet are slipping and sliding within the sandals. They are beautiful!

perfect shoes

Strong, comfortable AND stylish! My foot is very fine and still stays well maintained in the shoe.
It is my third pair from your brand for different seasons and I am a big fan. I live on the road and mostly outside and I can litterally walk everywhere with them, they are very sturdy while still feminine, well protecting for my feet, amazing quality, and I love the look, never disappointed.

The shoe is beautiful very comfortable, but the style just doesn’t work with my feet. May try and buy a different style.

Cute Slides

The first pair of slides I ordered were too big so I sent them back & ordered a smaller size. The return was easy and quick. The new size came quickly. These sandals are so cute & comfy!

Beautiful shoe, but uncomfortable.

Beautiful shoe, but uncomfortable.

I had bought these sandals many years ago and wore them all the time because they were very comfortable and unique. I wore down the soles after years of use, so I bought new ones. However, this time, I find the toe thong of the new sandals very uncomfortable when I walk. I'm disappointed that they have changed because they are beautiful shoes.

Hi Phyliis, thanks so much for your feedback. We're really sorry to hear that the new pair doesn’t feel as comfortable as your original sandals. While we try to maintain the same handcrafted feel and unique look, there can be slight variations from design to design. We appreciate you sharing your experience and will pass this on to our product team. If there’s anything we can do to help, feel free to reach out to us directly.
