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).

My new comfy shoe
I've always been about the shoe that looked "good" but then a bout with plantar fasciitis had me looking for shoes I can walk in and not have foot pain at the end of they day. A friend had these and I thought "those are kind of a cool looking granny shoe," so I looked online and found them. They will not disappoint. I am a size 7- 7 1/2 and the 38 fits perfect. My foot is on the narrow side, but these adjust and are a good fit. These are my new "go to" shoe. I wanted the black but they weren't available so I got the pewter metallic. This color is more versatile, so I am glad I got this color. I am sure this won't be my only pair.

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.

Size 9 order 40 or higher
Based on the other reviews, I decided to order a size up. Since the shoes are slides, I figured that I could probably still wear them if they were too big. I'm a size 9. I ordered a size 40. The shoes fit me perfectly. However, be warned that they were almost too small. My toes and heal both reach the end of the footbeds, and I have no room to spare. So, if you are a size 9, please order at least a 40.The leather is good quality, it is soft and the shoes do not rub. The shoebeds are comfortable, but I would not say that they are the most comfortable shoes ever. They are what I expected - good, solid, walking sandals. Overall, I am happy with my purchase. Thanks to all the other reviewers who warned me that size might be an issue!

Sizing Issue but Happy
I picked up these here in the purple, which really is a muted, dark lilac in what appears to be nubuck. It's a lovely color and just about perfect for me.I usually wear an 8.5 in a dress shoe and an 8 in a sandal. So I tried these in 38 and 39. The 38 were too short and the 39 was just right. I'd say that the 39 is true to a size 8 US in terms of length. Someone needing the length of a 8.5 might want to size up to a 40.After wearing my first pair for about 3 hours, I knew that I'd need more and immediately purchased a second pair at a fantastic off-season price. These Worishofers aren't the 2" or 3" wedges that I'm usually drawn to. But the shoes are incredibly stable on the foot and there is no slippage at the heel or the ball. They give me amazing comfortable, sure footed-ness, and more lift than a flat. In fact, I think I prefer them to flats.Definitely pleased with these.

A German Orthopedic Dream
I am in love with these shoes. I have them in red and yellow.They wedges are lightweight and very flattering. They're the perfect shoe to travel with as they're easy to pack, good for walking and you can dress them up / down.You can adjust the shoes with the buckle (it isn't just decorative). The solid colors look really cute with skinny jeans and a modern print top.Only drawback? Don't get them wet. Both of my pairs of these shoes got very stretched out when I got stuck in the rain wearing them. The shape of the shoe warped, which made them tougher to fit well later.Also after wear, the cork wedge heel will crumble. Think of this shoe as a one or max two season option.However, they are VERY comfortable. Enjoy!

A great sandal for all
I had always had trouble finding a backless low heel sandal in my size of an 11 in Boston. In a few trips to LA to see family, is when I bought my backless sandals in my size of an 11. On one trip in the early 1990's, I discovered the Worishofer sandal in a little shoe cobbler shop and I have been wearing only them ever since and I am glad Amazon sells them.The heel height is perfect for me and they come in different leather choices. They are all I wear as a warm weather shoe as they are extremely comfortable and you can adjust the width as needed. I especially like their gold/silver sandal.There are 17 different sandal styles with and without a back strap with a color palette of some in 31 colors. The style #251 is the only one I wear.
