Mine may be a little older, but look almost like this. They are very soft and easy to wear for long periods of time. I love sandals and these are one of the most comfortable. They fit true to size and are or were available in large and wide sizes. The foot bed leather is soft and comfortable. The bumpy padding feels quite good. The foot bed leather is perforated and breaths very nicely keeping your feet cool and dry. Like walking on a cloud.

These are amazing! I have a very narrow and long foot. I wear 11N or 11 AAA and these fit great and have wonderful padding on the insole, too. Have to give these the highest rating for sandals which I find very hard to wear. The only thing I would change would be the heel strap is a bit harsh but other wise they are a 10+ Stars instead of a 5 stars! I am seriously considering purchasing another pair of them in a different color, that is how comfortable they are.

I had bruised the top of my foot by wearing tight high heel shoes and could not walk on my foot for two days. My sister had just purchased a pair of Softwalk Women's Bolvia Sandals and told me the adjustable velcro straps would fit loosely over the top of my foot. To my surprise, the inner soles of the shoes were like walking on air and foam. They were so comfortable, I could loosen the
straps and actually put weight on my foot. I wore the shoes daily for a month
until the swelling went down. No bed slippers or socks were needed on one foot
like I would have had to have worn if it was not for the Softwalk shoes. I have since bought my own pair of shoes and they are worth every single penny!
I keep them clean by spraying spot remover and then wiping them off. They dry within an hour and I can even wear them with socks when I put on my slacks. Great for walking long distances or at theme parks.

This shoe is very comfortable out of the box. It is great for walking and not many sandals are. It accomodates my high arch by the velcro straps. The reason I only gave 4 stars is the top strap is awfully stiff and rubbed against my foot. I don't know that it will soften with wear or not but I cushioned it by using adhesive mole skin on the underside of the strap. Now it is a perfect sandal. Wish they made it in a denim blue to wear with jeans.

very commfortable, I love the waffle footbed. I've plantar fasciaitis and need comfort. I think I would also like with a little higher heal.

Great shoes. Very comfortable padding in the sole.
They look great and feel great!

Sandals arrived quickly and safely. They molded nicely to my feet and the comfort level basically stops there. The insoles should have a bit more padding on them if they're going to have a price tag of $99! The insoles are nothing better than soft suede-like material with indentations on them. So when you push your feet into the sandals, they 'pop' flat against the bottom of your feet. I wore them immediately to the grocery store down the block after I got them and both my calves and feet felt really tired when I got home. And another thing, I don't know if its the design of the heel or front straps, but, when I walked in them, they bunched up my toes and pushed them forward, squishing them tightly against each other. I tried loosening the front strap and this made it WORSE! It pushed my feet forward even MORE! Leaving a gap of around a 1/2"-1" on the heels and made the sandals appear way BIGGER. So when I walk, my toes were left hanging infront, OUTSIDE of the sandals while the rest of my feet are in them! The design of these sandals are just plain WEIRD! Bottom line, I do NOT recommend these sandals even if the make is better than the Propet brand. Save your money and get something else!

I'm wearing these shoes for the first time today, and they are super-comfy. A great look also: somewhat more dressy than most comfort sandals, so that I can wear them to work, with skirts...but also with jeans.
I wanted to write a review to make three points:
1) in the photos, it appears that the back heel strap has a velcro adjustment on the strap,but this is not the case (it is a faux tab, to visually match the real velcro adjustment tabs on the other two straps. So the heel strap is not adjustable; instead it has the little piece of elastic.
2) I agree with the other reviewers who recommended ordering a half-size larger, as the shoe runs small. I normally wear a size 9, but ordered a 9 1/2 in these, and they fit perfectly.
3)I disagree with the reviewer who said that there was not enough arch support. I have a very high instep, and almost didn't buy these because of the perceived lack of arch support. However, I find that given the very cushiony insole and the design of the shoe (with a slight heel), my arches are supported well.
These shoes are perfect for me: very comfortable, stylish, and not too dressy or too casual. They seem to be well made, too....let's see how long they last.

The best feature of the shoe is that it is adjustable. It helps me make the fit just right for my feet and comfort level. I wish it had better arch support, although the cushion is comfortable enough for my needs. Overall, I am satisfied with my purchase.

This is a very, very comfortable shoe with just the right heel. I suggest you order half size larger, as my normal size is just a little short; but I love it anyway. Will order other colors.
