Great for walking.
Reviewed in the United States on July 23, 2024
I bought these shoes and I took them with me on my trip to Europe. I loved the style and true to size for they fit perfectly. These shoes became my go to pair of shoes for walking. The first day that I did long walking I noticed that at the end of the day I didn't have tired, achy feet. The most important test was the walk in Rome and that was a lot of walking but still no achy feet. I was leaning towards buying a more expensive brand of shoes but I have another pair of cushionaire brand of shoes that I love and are very comfortable so I went with this brand again. They are worth the price. It's the best kept secret for the price. This will be my go to brand. No more tired feet thanks to Cushionaire. They looked cute on my feet also.

So comfy for my wide, flat feet that I bought a 2nd pair!
Reviewed in the United States on July 23, 2024
Wore these and immediately ordered a 2nd pair in a different colour (Stone). LOVE!
So I basically have Hobbitsy feet: small, wide, and flat-footed. :) My arches are non-existent, which makes many shoes (including flats) uncomfortable after wearing them for a long period of time or walking around too much.
These shoes were comfortable right from the start! And they're still comfortable after 10 hours of nonstop walking in them! To compare, my feet would have started hurting in traditional sandles, flat clogs, mules, or moccasins after 3 to 4 hours of constant walking. No hurting or soreness with these Cushionaires, though!
In terms of sizing, I typically order a 6.5 but my feet are both wide enough and small enough that I can wear any size from a 5.5 to a 7.5 (and sizes in-between) depending on the shoe's cut.
The 6.5 in the Cushionaires seem a bit big as shown in one of my photos below around the heel and toe areas. Extra space in both areas. I probably could (should??) have gone with a size 6. However, I like a slightly looser, easier fit for sandals like these, especially as my feet swell terribly in the hideous summer temps we get in my city or if I do too much walking around in general in any weather. That's why I kept Size 6.5 in ordering my second pair.
If you also typically take a 6.5 size, you might want to go down to a 6 if you have narrow feet. If you have wide feet and typically wear a 6.5, consider if you prefer a snug or snugger fit and size down to a 6 if you do. If you, like me, prefer a looser, less restrictive fit, I think you'll be happy with the 6.5.
I like the shoe's weight which is neither too heavy nor too flimsy. Looks like these will last a long time. Also, the fact that the rubber sole is textured means better traction on slippery or wet outside surfaces. That's another plus.
Color issue: the sandals are actually darker coloured in person and not quite as orange-y brown as the outdoor photos show. Think lustrous dark hardwood floors, but not too dark! Just the perfect Goldilocks middle. I think the richness of the brown adds to their versatility and to their casual chic-ness.
Last thing, I appreciate the ability to change the sizes on one or both of the straps. I widened only the front strap because I like having tighter support around my flat arches. But I like that Cushionaires gives me the option if I change my mind. As I said, Hobbitsy feet, lol. ;)

Comfortable and Durable
Reviewed in the United States on August 12, 2024
I will say first, these do take several wears to get "broken in", but once you do, they are such good shoes! So easy to slip on and they look nice enough to wear to most casual events/errands! This is the second pair I've purchased... the first lasted me a good two summers before the straps started to show some wear and tear (and for this being my go-to shoe in the summer, I would say that's pretty good for what these are and the price point).

Nice shoe! Size up!
Reviewed in the United States on July 24, 2024
Update: I decided to return them. Even with a better fitting size I found that they just didn’t sit right with my feet.
I really enjoyed the quality of this shoe. It is very similar to Birks but as someone with high arches that rely on Birks for daily wear, these arches do not fit the same. However, the footbed is very cushioned so for $29, I am going to give them a chance.
I do find that they do fit slightly shorter. I usually wear 8 wide. I bought the 8w and found them a little too wide and they fit more like a 7.5 lengthwise (I used to wear 7.5 before I was scolded by a podiatrist).
I ordered the next size up, 8.5 (normal width), and found these to be a much better fit. The normal width is plenty wide for me as they aren’t narrow like most shoes tend to be.
If you’re on the fence, I’d suggest giving them a try since they are significantly cheaper than Birks!

Better than name brand by far!!
Reviewed in the United States on August 9, 2024
I tried breaking in a pair of the name brand version of this sandal. Back in the 70's they were the most comfortable shoe ever! Fast forward to now when my elderly feet have lost all their fat pad (according to my podiatrist), have had multiple foot surgeries and have grown much wider. I was crippled for weeks trying to break them in. But I wanted the look, so ordered these to try and OMG...what a difference! Comfortable and fit great right out of the box. I bought a second pair and have been wearing them non-stop. Great sub! And the price is unbeatable. Don't know how long they'll last but at this price, who cares....

Soft Perfection
Reviewed in the United States on August 1, 2024
These are amazing and true to size. They are very cushiony and have decent support. For the price you can't go wrong. The color is perfect and they seem very durable. Went for these as opposed to other brands that have the name on the buckles. The names on buckles give a generic feel imo but not these. Best knock off you can find for sure.

Reviewed in the United States on July 22, 2024
I love these shoes! They are comfortable and look just like the real thing. My only gripe was seeing that the sizing was small for most I did go up a half size and ordered a 9.5. I think I could’ve done with my normal sandal size of a 9 though. I am in between sizes though (sometimes wear an 8.5) so just be aware if you have that problem. Overall they fit good despite being a bit roomy. I’d order them again in another color at some point and try a 9.
