I really love these shoes. They are super comfortable, true to size, and look great. I was worried that one of the two straps would cut into my foot or heel... they do not at all. I have had other shoes that have the buckles on the top and something under them rubs on my foot when I walk... not with this OTBT shoe.

These were my first pair of OTBT and I have only owned them for a week, but they were comfortable right out of the box. The first time I wore them and walked around a mall for a few hours without any discomfort or rubbing. I would have never known that they were brand new shoes based on how they fit and wear.

I haven't owned them long enough to know about the long term wear (will update this review if it changes)... but I plan to buy another pair in the turquoise color soon! Excellent shoe for the $. True to size. Comfortable out of the box. I highly recommend.

UPDATE 09/13:
I bought the turquoise and the grey pair too... I love them and get tons of compliments when I wear them. Great with jeans and dress pants and works with well with skirts/dresses too. Just enough of a heel for me! These are my go-to shoes. On the grey pair, the leather that covers the heel is coming off on the edge. I think superglue would fix it. I noticed it on the first wear but didn't return... no other issues with any of the three pair. They are still really comfortable and I still love them!

I really like how these shoes look, but man do they fit weird. First, regarding the color: it's just as pictured, although calling them "charcoal" grey is a bit humorous and misleading...as the picture implies, they're more like" beige-gray" or "taupe-y light gray," which was actually what I was looking for. As far as the fit goes, I wear a size 8 medium shoe, rarely need to go up to an 8.5. The heel sling in the back is rather loose (which will only worsen, since they're leather), so I thought tightening the front buckle by one notch would remedy this. However, that doesn't really stabilize the back strap at all; what it actually does, at least for me, is it makes my heel shift medially (i.e., towards my opposite foot) when walking, which was a pretty awkward and ridiculous experience, since my heel kept rolling over the inner heel edge. Not cute. Aside from that, they're actually pretty comfortable...until about 5 minutes into the walk, when you have to stop, adjust the heel, then walk again, only to have the stupidity repeat. Anyway, since I sew leather/vinyl/canvas goods, I'll be crafty and work my magic with correcting this odd craftsmanship, since I don't feel like going through the annoyance of returning them. Plus, I kind of like them otherwise.

loved the shoes immediately. practically no breaking in necessary, as the toebox is fairly roomy. weirdly, though, i ordered a 5-1/2 & a 6, 2 different colours, & they both seem to be exactly the same size....
my only complaint is that there is precisely zero arch support. strange, for a shoe from a company that prides itself on marketing all-day wear to keep you skipping down the streets & paths of various far-flung countries of the world in style & perfect comfort. insoles are not an option in a slingback.

I love sling backs. And I love these sling backs because they have a modern flair which makes my feet look dainty and my outfit complete. I've had several compliments wearing them one of which was "..they're funky but subtle."

Confession: I sent the first pair back because I thought they'd been worn. The leather is slightly distressed as per the description, but the soles looked dirty. Second pair was exactly the same. It wasn't a bug, it was a feature.

I found the fit true to size, though my feet are narrow. Despite the almost half-size difference between them, I was able to adjust the strap on the smaller foot to get a good fit. Extremely comfortable and adorable - my two requirements for shoes!

The back sling is not adjustable and it is too big for me. I am considering returning it as my feet will flap as I walk.

These shoes are my absolute favorite! They've been comfortable from the moment I put them on. There's a bit of elastic in the strap, so the shoes can be slipped right on. I haven't had any rubbing or discomfort wearing these, and I've done some serious walking in them. Not only are they comfortable, they're also very cute. I love the little heel, which gives these the comfort of a flat with just a bit more style. So, so cute! They fit true to size.

I love these shoes! I really just love this brand and when I saw these on Amazon I had to have them! They have such a cute classic look and the color is great! They are also some of the most comfortable shoes I own! I brought these with me to New Orleans last weekend and spent the entire weekend walking all over the quarter and numerous cemeteries with no blisters or pain at all! I say thats a test of a good pair of shoes!

These are the first shoes I have bought online and I love them. I went a 1/2 size up and they are wide enough at the ball of the foot which is rare for me. I am going to buy them in every color. The color will go with everything for summer.
