Soludos Men's Dali Canvas Slip On Espadrilles

Bought these shoes because I was looking for a TOMS alternative (I HATE the soles of Toms for their lack of support and grip and the fact that I feel like I can feel every tiny stone beneath my foot).The shoes are very attractive and have a rustic character, allowing them to be worn in dressier situations, for instance a beach wedding. They also have a supportive rubber sole that is thick enough to feel like you're wearing a shoe rather than a slipper, and they are very comfortable to wear for long periods of time.The issue I have with them, which I consider to be a major one, is in the design quality. First the rope outer on the soles has frayed a lot more quickly than I would expect, leaving loose, twine-fiber-like threads hanging. Also, the shoes are the correct size and fit great once they are on. However, the upper material is like a canvas and there is no give or elastic panels to assist in putting them on. As a result, within the first dozen times of wearing them the stitching at the corner of the toe box ripped while putting one of the shoes on (the other one is still holding, but seems like it will rip soon). I will note that, being aware of this design issue, I was attempting to be careful when putting them on and not wrenching them onto my foot. For both of these reasons, the shoes look a little shabbier than I would like and don't have the snug feel that they originally did.All in all, I like many things about these shoes, but the quality issue leaves me unable to recommend them. Hopefully they alter the design with some elastic, in which case they would be great.

These shoes will seem tight at first. After a few hours they will stretch. They aren't meant to be worn with socks either, but you can put a pair of no-show socks on to stretch them more. after that they'll be fine. From what I understand they're more popular in europe - in the USA at first it feels like wearing outdoor slippers. a nice alternative to sandals, they are super light and breath well, so they're ideal if it's hot but you don't like to show off your toes or if sandals are just too casual.

I had previously purchased the same model/size in a blue stripe (not a color option on this link for some reason) which fit me perfectly, but this one was looser and I would step out of it too easily. I then tried another 1/2 size down, but now the toe was too tight, so no joy for me. I returned them both.

This shoe runs extremely small. I cannot even get half my foot in the shoe that is my normal size. I returned the shoes very easily andordered an entire size larger shoe. It arrived in the exact time Amazon said it they would arrive. The second pair of shoes also areextremely tight. I think if I wear the shoes a few days I will stretch the shoes enough so that I can wear them. I do not recommend theseshoes to others since it is not possible to try the shoes on before purchasing them.

I really love these Soludos. I've bought many of the same pair over the years and swear by them. Usually I buy an extra pair for when my current pair wears out, which will often happen if you wear them in very wet conditions. Then they harden up a bit. But I think they recently increased price from around $40 to $75 and at that price, they are close to losing my business, but still pretty worth it. On the fence if I'll continue to buy at $75/each.

I was watching a dude on youtube who reminded me of Don Johnson back in the 80s. Miami Vice was a popular show back then. Don popularized espadrilles during that time period as well.At any rate, perhaps I got hit with nostalgia; or perhaps I just wanted to feel young again. I decided to buy a pair of espadrilles.They arrived two days later. Fast delivery. I opened the box and the aroma brought me back to my youth. When they’re brand new, they don’t smell like ‘new shoes.’ They have their distinct aroma that no other shoes have. But I would not recommend sniffing them after you’ve worn them for months. (That would be gross.)Moving on. When I first put them on I was like, “Wow. These are super tight!!” Then I realized there was a cardboard lining inside. So make sure you take these off. I wore them around the house to break them in. I walked around the living room like Billy Badass, like I’m some kind of hip detective. I wish I was able to go outside. But it’s January and the snow is thick where I live. I will have to wait til it gets warm to wear ‘em outdoors.Overall I am very happy with the product. I plan to buy another pair in the near future. I’m thinking leather this time, to match my leather pants and fedora hat.

I love these shoes! They fit great, never disappoint and last for years! I have about 7 pairs, they are great when they are old, especially as slip on beach shoes. The rope bottoms help with smell and make them last forever!

I ordered a pair of espadrilles in size 10 They were closest in size to my wife's 7. I returned them. I reordered a 10 1/2. They were no larger than the 10's. I returned them too. I've ordered from a different company. I am expecting to see their version of size 10 1/2.

I normally wear a size 8. I read here that you need to order bigger so I ordered 8.5 still way too small had to return. Reordered as 9.5 perfect fit! So 3 sizes bigger. Amazon must be taking back these shoes at an alarming rate. I suggest that they stop selling them until manufacturer fixes the inconsistency. Otherwise they are knowingly wasting their time and the customers. Shoes are fine otherwise.

Should have returned them. Bought 2 sizes bigger because of warnings from other reviewers. Length was ok but proportion too narrow for human feet.

Really comfortable, traditional rope sole shoe. They fit snug, i went up a full size from normal, but they stretched great in all the right places.

Buena calidad relación precio calidad adecuado. Si volvería a comprar. Un poco chico esa. Es. La. Única desventaja presentada. Sólo eso.

it did not fit, even though i order the same size all the time, this one is just too small.
