This is my first time to buy shoes online (other than running shoes, and I'm very satisfied. These flip flops are great. I wasn't expecting too much comfort when I ordered them, but now that I've worn them for several weeks, I know my expectations were wrong. I had expected the thin straps to be only semi-comfortable, but to my surprise, they are soft and don't irritate or give calluses. Though the shoe may overall look way too thin to really provide any cushion, they are good enough for casual walking around on campus. Do be aware that like other flip flops, the straps on these do stretch out after a while, mostly if they get wet like in the rain. Anyways, in comparison to the capri sandals sold at j.crew, I'll say these reefs are much more comfortable and a better buy, especially for people who have wider feet. Anyways, I mainly ordered these because they looked really cute if paired with a skirt or a pair of shorts. I ordered these in "saddle." Rather than the light turquoise that they appear to be on the monitor the colored stripe on these are an obvious green/solid teal. The color surprised me, but it is never-the-less extremely cute and I get so many compliments. Everyone loves the printed flowers on the leather. (The print also helps them from being slippery like the "swing," which I also ordered). If you're looking for a pair that will match with lots of things and look semi-dressy, you should probably get it in brown.

I tried a pair on while at the mall (not in my size) but I thought they were really comfortable. I ordered a pair online and disliked them after wearing them for a week. Really, all it took was 3 days for me to see how slippery they were. The leather doesn't get slippery until your foot rubs against it after several wearings. Also, the shoe flops a lot. It almost seems as if the shoe is heavy and that's why it doesn't follow my foot motion very well. I'd recommend buying the sunnie sandal more. I ordered both a few weeks ago and have come to see that the sunnie sandals are better.
