What in the 90s?
What a blast from the past. Had similar before. Same color, same everything really. Cause misery loves company, had to buy try out this pair. Are they comfortable, not really but they where Gladiator sandals....you had to be there cause the old ones were not either. Style is the same, team it up with a skirt, dress, cutoffs for some of us (we were throwing things together before every mall had an alternative store). If a half size, size up. Stable kitten size heel, if you would. It will all depend on how you strap your straps. There is a secret double loop with a tie at the top, we learned from somewhere (error, so much user error). Will leave marks if done right, sometimes, nothing permanent, just might not want to see your parents or the in-laws in shorts the next day. Flip flops are more that the thrift right now, so even as an occasional thing, might be worth it. Wanna relive or think you wanted to be in the 90s as a teen, this is the shoe for you. And yes, sturdy and stable enough to walk in for a bit, style your way just watch how you lace up the straps!

“Laces” fall down easily
These shoes are cute but they are not comfortable to me. The quality is pretty good & the size chart seems accurate. The heels are nice but the “laces” are unstable. They crisscross up to calf but the material makes it hard to tie them off. Just a few steps & the laces are undone or they’ve dropped to a mangled mess around my ankles. Not a value worth the headache for me.

Good quality at a very inexpensive price
These lace-up heels aren’t designed for a bunch of activity, and they’re not for casual all-day wear. That much is obvious with any footwear of this general type. However, some heels like these are more accommodating for wide feet, and these aren’t those. If you have wide feet, look elsewhere.Otherwise, these are pretty good. They’re not meant to wear often, and the price and materials reflect that. But for the price, the materials and the build quality are very good.For dressing up for the occasional night out, it’s hard to go wrong with these.NOTES:✏️ If you’re on the larger side of a whole size, go up a half size, here. My wife is normally a Size 6 (US), so she chose the Size 6.5 with these. They fit well, and her opinion is that the 6 would be slightly too small.PROS👍 True to size👍 Elegant design/appearance👍 Decent materials for the price👍 Sturdy; no heel wobble👍 Non-slip sole👍 Good construction; should hold up with normal use👍 Can be dressy or casual👍 Good for a night out👍 Great value for moneyCONS👎 Not suitable for wider feet👎 Not comfortable for extended wearVERDICT🙂 I would buy this again.

POOR WORKMANSHIP
The design of these appealed to me. However, these are not made with quality in mind. I’ll give the positive feedback first. Appearance and heel height are this shoes best features. However, comfort is just not there. The horizontal strap across the toes is very short and significantly squish my toes. The shoes are my size, however I cannot slide the shoe on my foot. There are gaps in the leather attached to the sole and spots of dried glue. The heel is wobbly. The pieces of the shoe are mostly glued together. I cannot comment on comfort as I could not get the shoes on. I did modify them on by cutting off the horizontal strap, then the shoes fit. I guess they’re ok for the price.

Perfect!
These are perfect! Faux leather straps and all along the heel. The block heel is very sturdy and with the straps my feet felt very secure in them. I’ll need to break them in, but so far they are very cute. You can wrap it up like the pictures, or wrap it around your ankle a few times for a more chic look. I wear a size 8.5 but I got the 8 and they fit snug on my feet.

Odd fit, arrived with minor damage
These were a bit of a disappointment to me. I got these to wear with my summer midi and maxi dresses. They arrived in a shoddy box that was crushed and then taped shut, almost like the box was reused. One of the shoes had some gouges in the pleather that was noticeable due to the light color. When I put them on, the placement of the toe thong is too centered, its as though they are meant for narrow feet with extra wide toes, leaving no room for your pinky toe so it is smashed. The shape of the shoe curves inward like they were designed for pigeon toed feet. The fit is just very odd. If you have wide feet, these shoes will not work for you. There is also a visible seam on the side of both shoes, that just makes them look super cheap (see 2nd photo, where you can also see my smashed pinky toe) . I do like the color, it is more of a pinky-beige which was hard to capture in photos. The sizing does seem to be accurate as well. It's too bad because they have a lot of potential. If they can improve the quality and design a bit these would be great. They are still wearable, but I don't love them like I hoped I would.
