Love these sandals.
This is my first sandal orthoheel purchase and I am so glad I purchased these. They are so comfortable. When I first received them on I wasn't sure how I woud like the foot bed. It felt a little hard to me. But after wearing them all day recently my feet were not tired or burning as they usually are. The color and style are vlery attractive on. I ordered a 7 which is my usual size and they fit perfectly. If you want a classy, comfortable and restful shoe this is the one to purchase. I would like to see a toe ring sandal come out in the orthoheel.

Read the Fine Print
I made the mistake of buying these based on some reviews I read glowing about how wonderful these shoes are, and did not read the fine print. I ordered the white/snakeskin. They fit well and were comfortable, and felt true to size. However, they are not leather-they are plastic, and Made in China. The straps are all velcro and stick out on the sides and the ones I bought were U-G-L-Y and cheap looking. Honestly, I was very disappointed when I got them to see how cheap they looked for $75!! I have bought shoes at the discount shoe stores that looked better than these.
Based on my first impression of this brand: they are way overpriced for plastic shoes that are not even leather, and way overrated. Needless to say, I am sending them back.

Great sandal
This is my first orthaheel purchase. I normally wear a 12 narrow and I decided to give the 11 medium a chance. I am not sure if this would work for all orthaheel, but it fits for this style. They fit perfect because they adjust. They are so comfortable. There is a break in period. I don't have feet problems but I noticed that my back feels better.

Squeaky and Sweaty
I so liked these when they first arrived and actually fit my wide fit, not something Orthaheel does well, but after wearing around the house a bit, I quickly recalled the problem with a previous pair of Orthaheel sandals. The foot bed is only good if your feet never perspire, but whatever the foot bed is made of, causes my feet to perspire and then my foot slips and squeaks. So disappointing since the width and arch fit so well. I went back and read other comments and I see I am not alone in this complaint. Guess I will stick with the Clarks.line.

So Comfortable!
I'm a Birkenstock girl, but I was attracted to the Orthaheel arch supported design because I need that support, even for just walking around the house. These sandals are extremely comfortable, very light-weight and so cute-- I got the ivory snake, and it is an updated, edgy white that I can wear for casual or dressed-up occasions. This shape is similar to the Porto style, with the three-strap adjustability I need plus the addition of the back strap. I find the textured insole very comfortable, not sweaty or sticky. Love this new option in supportive, stylish summer footwear!

Runs big?
I ordered these sandals in my normal size--11 and feel I could have sized down. I ordered them in the while and really liked the look. The footbed is a plastic like material. It felt fine on my foot--not too hard, but I felt my foot was sliding around on the footbed. Maybe because they were a little big? I just might chance ordering a size smaller because they really are cute. The only thing making me think about it is all the shipping/return shipping I'm paying. If the second pair doesn't fit, I'll be out over $24 for shipping.

comfort & beauty
Got the gold cork, really good neutral! Wore them all day first day and sooo comfortable. Like the fact that they are lightweight. Orthaheel has become my favorite "good for your feet sandles". The footbed does not dry out your feet like other sandles I use to buy.

insoles are sticky
I was so eager to try this brand as I have bad knees. I like the support, and the adjustable straps but the insole material is terrible. It feels like plastic or some other cheap material.. They make my feet sweat and feel sticky.Maybe it's just this style, but for the price....these should be made out of quality materials . I am sending them back .and getting to pay shipping again.Guess I will stick to Birkenstock,.

Good Support
The instep is right where I need it - I went down from a size 11 to a 10 (as others have suggested) and the fit was perfect, no toes or heels hanging over the sides. Straps are just wide enough not to hurt.

Stylish Comfy Cork
Perfect right out of the box. The top strapx AND the back strap are adjustable with that velcro closure that makes it super easy to deal with. The smooth bed is curved just right and the smooth finish is a nice change from all that fuzzy microsuede stuff that designers are using (it makes my feet hot). The cork looks finished and stylish, not rustic, and the little bling touches on the top are the icing. The fit is perfect and true. On some shoes I buy wide but mostly I buy medium and the medium on these is perfect. Really versatile and adorable. I am trying to decide which color to get next - I love this style and will wear them often.I wear Birkis too but these are a little more stylish looking especially for a comfort type shoe. What made me order these was the recommendation by Dr. Weil. And I'm really happy I did. Can't wait to get out of the various boots I've been wearing for months now. Thank you.

Very happy!
I went back and forth about ordering these sandals after reading all the reviews, but ultimately decided to order. I am very happy I did. I have bunions on one foot and therefore often need a wider shoe. These sandals accommodate my foot just great! I wanted a sandal with a back strap and this one is very comfortable and has tons of adjustment. I ordered the brown and I just love them.

Amazing
The best shoe you will ever wear. Any and all of the "ORTHAHEEL." shoes are amazing. This is like my 4th pair. I also have the insoles. I can't tell you how much of a difference these shoe will make in your feet and any pains you are having..
