 great comfort and durabilityJun 06, 2010
This will be my third summer and I've worn them almost everyday. Held up great but now am getting a second pair in case they stop the style. I wear a nice and the nice fits (normally in merrell clogs i go down a size but not for the sandles.)
Good quality shoesMay 25, 2010
I just received my pair of Brown Agave shoes today, they're wonderful! I suggest buying them 1/2 size down, since they do stretch out a bit. It may be a bit tight when you wear them at first, but they'll morph into a larger size soon. They look very well made, and I hope that they'll hold up when I go hiking in Yosemite. They look better on the foot than by themselves, btw.

great warm weather travel sandalsMay 20, 2010
I bought a pair of these sandals in black to wear on a summer trip to Italy in 2008. I wore them constantly with casual skirts and dresses while I walked the streets, toured the ruins, and dined in outdoor cafés. I like the sporty comfort; the style will work well for women who want a lightweight, slim-packing sandal for comfortable walking that will straddle the middle ground between an every day casual sandal and one that can pair with slightly more dressy outfits. These are best for urban, suburban wear and park strolling and wouldn't be the right choice for intense off-pavement hiking or sports or with really dressy outfits. Our trip is long since over, but I continue to wear these sandals frequently with jeans, capris/cropped pants, casual skirts, and casual summer dresses.
I noted other some other reviewers having problems with the strap. I haven't had that problem. I fitted the strap once when I purchased them and never adjusted it. I slip the heel strap up over my heel with a hooked finger. I wear these sandals slightly looser than usual so that during hot weather they don't chafe if my feet swell. If I have an emollient cream on my feet, I have had a tiny bit of black dye stain the side of my big toe (but never if I haven't applied moisturizing cream to my feet). When the sandals have become dusty while wearing, I wiped them with a damp cloth and they looked great again.
In fact, I like these sandals so much I am planning to purchase another pair in brown.

my favorite sandals ever!Jul 31, 2009
I wore those sandals for three summers now almost every day. I am a shoe girl - I sold shoes at Macy's for 2 years - and I have seen a lot of good sandals, but those really became my favorite. Those sandals are supposed to feet loose, so I would suggest to get a size that you normally wear in Merrels and not go down. They are comfortable when they are loose, but if you get a smaller size they might rub on your feet. They do pick up some dirt (because of their loose fit) when you are out in the wild. I just try to wash them time after time with a wet cloth and wash my feet when I come back from such walks. But the great part about them is that they look nice and feminine with either shorts/pants or dress/skirt. They kind of have a look of original "ancient greek sandals" and together with that they give a comfort of a Merrel shoe in which you can walk for miles and not get tired. My pair is black, so it goes with everything. Mine never broke, bit I have to say I do not mess up with the buckle since I bought them. I adjusted the buckle once and since that I just slip them on and off, which I would recommend to everybody. The sole held up pretty well too. The front of it is now after three seasons of wear finally getting pretty thin, so it is probably a time to get a new pair... I walked in those sandals for miles and miles as I do a lot of walking, hiking and traveling. This style is a real steal!!!

 Great style and exceptional comfort, but construction doesn't hold up.Jun 15, 2008
Last summer I bought a pair of these in black. The comfort was pure bliss and I received many compliments on the style. I'm tempted to buy another pair, but these sandals just did not hold up, especially disappointing given the relatively high price. Within a few weeks the elastic connection on one shoe's side strap broke and had to be stitched. A few weeks later the same thing happened to the other shoe. The shoe repair shop where I bought them was pessimistic about the repair lasting, calling it a "design flaw," and tried to charge $8 to fix them until I pointed out I had bought the sandals from the very same shop less than six weeks earlier. Now the leather has stretched out so much these sandals are way too loose to wear safely for a second summer.I'm disappointed with the construction of this style, but plan on checking out the newer styles, hoping these construction weaknesses have since been corrected.
