Let me start by saying these sandals are ADORABLE. The gold chain detail gives them such a chic, elevated look that instantly dresses up any summer outfit. I paired them with both jeans and a sundress, and got compliments both times!
Comfort-wise, they're surprisingly decent for the price point. The faux leather is soft and didn't rub or cause blisters during my first wear. However, I completely agree with other reviewers - these aren't made for walking. After about 30 minutes of continuous wear, my feet started feeling the lack of support.
Now the BIG caveat: sizing is all over the place! I normally wear a size 8, but based on reviews I sized up to an 8.5. They fit perfectly length-wise but were slightly too wide. My sister (a true size 7) tried my pair and they were comically large on her. Definitely check the size chart carefully and consider ordering multiple sizes if possible.
Best uses? These shine for short outings where you want to look put-together without sacrificing comfort - think brunch dates, shopping trips, or office days where you're mostly seated. The slip-on design makes them super convenient, though the open toe means they're strictly a warm-weather option.
Final verdict: Great for fashion-forward looks on a budget, but don't expect all-day comfort or consistent sizing. Would recommend if you need cute, occasional-wear sandals and don't mind playing size roulette!
