Wonderful! but, watch sizing
These shoes are so comfortable and very popular! Easy to slip on and easy to wear all day... I love them! You get the benifit of style, (in colors), variety, and comfort all in one shoe.Watch out for sizing, it is off.... I wear a us size 6 all day everyday forever in any open toed shoe which should convert to a euro 36 according to the ordering information. However, I had to return then for a euro 37 which fit perfectly. I don't know who's sizing is off but, the 37 is a us size 6. So, I would suggest ordering up one size.Another great feature is that the vamp buckle is adjustable. Since I have very narrow feet, this was a real plus. I was able to adjust them to fit my foot exactly. They fit like a glove with no flopping around. Great shoes just order up a size and they are perfect.

Can run a bit small depending on how you like your shoes to fit
I am typically in between sizes (8.5/9) -- lengthwise I am a true 39, but if the shoe is too narrow in the toe box I usually go for a 39.5 or 40. My last pair of Worishofers I purchased a size 40 (since they don't offer half sizes) in the 711 style. After reading all the reviews I decided to go a little bit up in size. They fit fine but after living in them practically all summer they became really broken in and a lot looser. They still fit and were comfortable but I wondered if I should try a size 39. So for my next pair I purchased some 251s in size 39. Lengthwise they fit juuust right - my foot filled in the sandal toe to heel, with my heel almost exactly flush with the back of the shoe. Depending on how you like to wear your shoes you may find this to be a perfect fit or, if you prefer more room in the back, a bit too small. In the case of the latter, go a size up. I can comfortably fit into both a 39/40 but I'm also comparing two different shoe styles. For a slide style like the 251, I prefer the size 39. The toe area is rather wide already and I know after wearing them all the time (they are truly so comfortable and light) they will stretch and mold to my feet nand fit even better.

cheap garbage
I saw this slip-in wedge sandal on the 3rd Hour Today show (news program). They said it was padded & comfy, and everyone loved them. I up sized - black 9. In person they are cheap looking, hard insole, the inside of the shoe is hard, not comfy, the faux bottom leather that the footrests on is wrinkled, faded and used looking, they are not padded, not wide, couldn't get my foot into them, and the faux leather buckle area, the leather at that point is already curling. I am sending them back for a full refund.

Cute trendy sandal, not quite as comfortable as advertised
This sandal is apparently the "ugly comfort shoe of the year" in the same way that Earth shoes and Birkenstocks found their way into our hearts years ago. According to a recent article in Slate online magazine, this shoe has long been the shoe of choice for German grandmothers who want comfort and don't care about style. But some Hollywood stars "discovered" them, and now their ugliness has become chic, and these have become all the rage among the glitterati. The Slate article was illustrated by a slide show depicting some pretty heavyweight celebrities sporting this shoe. This particular style, the mule slide, comes in a variety of colors. It has a leather upper and an extremely lightweight cork sole.I actually don't think they are all that ugly. I'm a middle-aged working woman, and I found these sandals in this off-beat pink and snake print style rather attractive. That being said, they are not nearly as comfortable as my cruddy old pair of Birkenstocks, or my more stylish Sperry Topsiders. The leather is stiff, and the inside of the leather upper is a tad rough. Although the shoe did not rub a blister on my foot, it did leave a red sore line on my foot by the end of the working day. I was wearing them without socks or knee-highs with a pair of slacks.If I had been blown away by the comfort factor, I would be ordering these in several more colors. And perhaps the leather becomes more soft with wearing. But my initial reaction is that these are not any better than many of the summer slides you can find in a nice department store.

Perfectly fun comfort sandal, a classic
I love Worshofers for a comfy house sandal to change into, or for wearing out with a cute dress. They're ugly chic German hausfrau look personified. They do tend to run a bit small, so size up, especially if you're in between sizes or have a wider foot. I love how they mold to your feet after wearing. Note that they're not sturdy sandals that will last for years. I buy them once a year or two, and usually have several pairs in different colors. Note I've found the patent leather styles are not as comfy. Shout out to Tip Top shoes - I used to shop there when I lived in NYC. They're great! True to form, these shipped and arrived fast (I'm in Seattle now).
