I like them, and they do look like they would be comfy.

I kinda like them; They've got a gladiator style feel (which I love), but they're not over-the-top to the point of being super trendy.


I think they'd go with a lot too.

They're okay, not really my style,  I do like the aerosoles metinee shoes though.  They're way comfy too and the ones you posted have the same shapes so I bet they're be really comfortable as well.


Aerosoles Metinee

Aerosoles shoes are comfy enough to walk city blocks in and those aren't bad. I like, but I don't love...it doesn't feel "special" enough to fit in your new, revamped wardrobe.


I would normally recommend the Metinees/Dollyannas, but they don't seem very 'you' either.

just at first glance, they are a little chunky for my tastes. but they do look comfortable.


on second glance, and really thinking about it, i think that they would be okay, with the right outfit. but not in the white, for some reason i think the white would look even more clunky on the foot. what were you planning on wearing with them? i can't seem them working with full-lenth pants but perhaps capris or skirts would work.

haha, aww you're so cute!


actually, i was trying to think how i would use these myself- i'm not used to wearing heels AT ALL.  it would be more of a comfort thing- if they were comfy, i'd wear them.  They have the potential to look nice in person, or to be stiff and gross.  If the leather is soft and nice, i think i'd like them.  The problem with my new "special" wardrobe is i'm filling it at a snails pace, and in a week or so i'm going to be naked!!  I don't even know what i'm going to wear- I feel like I should buy the clothes first, then the shoes, but I don't know.  The things I like that are detailed are pretty expensive- I find that the more simple designs and colors look the best at lower price points.  So these could go either way.

I guess I was thinking with shorts, skirts, summer dresses, and skinny jeans- which could be kinda cool with the t-strap and then the heel.  All depends on the quality of the shoe, which i can't really tell from the pic.

I really like them, especially in brown, and they look comfy. I've been looking for comfy sandals for ages so I'm really glad you posted these!

ok, i saw these in person, and now i'm torn between colors.  In person...I *might* like the black more.  The brown was nice, no lie, but its more of a medium monotone brown- i like rich deep browns or distressed browns.  The black was very strong looking on the foot.  I'm worried about black sandals though- do you think I'll get enough wear from them?

I say get the brown, they will look more distressed as you wear them.

In this style, I definitely prefer the brown to the black. The shoes will get beat up walking the NYC streets so they will look distrerssed soon enough.

I agree, Aerosoles are the BEST when it comes to comfort.
