I'm leery of EF shoes in general, though, because I fell in between sizes for the two pairs I've tried on. I'm afraid their sizing just might not work for me.</p> <p><b>Bijou</b>, I had to search a bit to find the olive ones in stock anywhere. I finally ordered them from QVC, which is not somewhere I normally shop. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandal-season/page/2#post-2105654 Thu, 12 Mar 2020 11:45:37 +0000 Bijou 2105654@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh wow - these are perfect - such a great colour combination, they will work with everything!

They are summer shoes but not sandals, although I think this year there is a more open toe version. Be sure you have something comfortable and appropriate for Disneyland or other theme parks. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandal-season/page/2#post-2105592 Thu, 12 Mar 2020 01:42:25 +0000 Suz 2105592@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those are great for you!

I’m a big fan of their sandals ... I have 3 different styles. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandal-season/page/2#post-2105584 Thu, 12 Mar 2020 01:04:02 +0000 Jenn 2105584@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>UPDATE!</p> <p>After some thought, I decided to order a pair of olive suede Miz Mooz sandals. They were about $100 less than the as98s with a similar vibe. </p> <p>They arrived today and I love them. My husband said, “they look fashion-y, but also post-apocalyptic, which seems appropriate for the times.” </p> <p>I’m probably going to add at least one more pair of sandals this summer, something with less coverage, but these are a good start. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandal-season/page/2#post-2102353 Wed, 26 Feb 2020 22:59:10 +0000 Jenn 2102353@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, aha! That explains the Israel connection! Makes sense from a style perspective too, because I (correctly or incorrectly, I’m not sure) associate funky, RATE, leather sandals with Israeli street style. I love that it’s such a small team and it sounds like they keep their manufacturers close too.</p> <p>I’m thinking I have room for at least two, and possibly three new pairs of sandals this year. It will be an embarrassment of riches! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandal-season/page/2#post-2102335 Wed, 26 Feb 2020 22:21:58 +0000 Angie 2102335@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Jenn</b>, we met the Miz Mooz team 10 years ago in NYC!

I had been drooling over the Miz Mooz Finney and Fallon in the Sundance (I think) catalog, but it didn't have brand info and I'd made a mental note to do some research. Now I don't have to! The Miz Mooz site says they're based in New York and manufactured in Europe, and I'm happy with the sustainability info I'm finding on them.</p> <p><b>LisaP,&nbsp;</b>Olukai looks like they have mostly slides, but I'm happy to add them to my brand repertoire because I'm seeing some great stuff on their site. </p> </p> <p>Also found these from Sorel (they come in black too). Similar to the Eileen Fishers, but I have some worries about those fitting.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandal-season/page/2#post-2102300 Wed, 26 Feb 2020 18:48:37 +0000 Anonymous 2102300@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>One of my BF's is the rep for Olukai - and they have really great quality sandals and some interesting /different styles you may like.

In the past, I haven't found anything with a toe loop comfortable (dang, I never realized how picky I was about sandal styles). I'm trying to broaden my horizons.</p> <p><b>Bijou,&nbsp;</b>you got it exactly. I'm always attracted to the sandals that have the vibe of a boot, but are a bit more open. And since I live in the city, a little bit more coverage won't go amiss most days. The streets are dirty!</p> <p><b>JAileen,&nbsp;</b>those straps are so pretty! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandal-season/page/2#post-2102026 Tue, 25 Feb 2020 16:21:54 +0000 JAileen 2102026@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here are the Mephistos on. &nbsp;The top leather is a little stiff, and around my big toe may take a little breaking in, but the sole feels wonderful. &nbsp;I wear size 10 and these are 41. They feel right. &nbsp;They don’t require effort to keep on, probably because of the cross strap. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandal-season/page/2#post-2101993 Tue, 25 Feb 2020 14:20:56 +0000 Bijou 2101993@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jenn, I 100% sympathise with loving boots and living in the climate for sandals. However, in real heat, your feet will be happier in sandals. I like gladiator sandals, they have the vibe of a boot with the comfort factor of a sandal. my favourite gold gladiator wore out this summer and I am on a quest to replace them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandal-season/page/2#post-2101873 Tue, 25 Feb 2020 02:03:34 +0000 rebekahphoto 2101873@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like your bed stu sotos--great modern vibe!&nbsp;</p> <p>im keeping an eye on this thread as Im always looking for a good shoe rec.</p> <p>Have you checked out the sorels? My co-worker had the Ella Cris cross and loves them! some pretty metallics, and a barely-there look. I wish I could wear them---I used to be able to and now my feet want more cushion...its funny because birks used to be too much for my arches, and then BAM--they were great! Now its all Birks and Eccos for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandal-season/page/2#post-2101819 Mon, 24 Feb 2020 21:38:12 +0000 Jenn 2101819@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>smittie,&nbsp;</b>Bed Stus are a slam dunk for me, too.

And a direct replacement of the Bed Stu that I always admire on you. :)</div><div>And I think you could use two or three more pairs. You've had such great suggestions here; I especially like Suz's collection. The Sorels stand out to me--such a cool look, and different from what you have already. <br /></div><div>I have the Mephistos that Suz shows, and I like them. And I'm coveting a pair like the ones JAileen showed you (in a different colorway); I tried them on last year and couldn't justify another pair of sandals for myself. I have a pair of Birkenstocks and like them (the ones in Finds--they are a slide, but feel secure to me), but I much prefer the Mephistos and agree they are a very different feel. <br /></div><div>I have the Danskos below in Finds, and they are super comfy. They come in different colors. I like that they don't have a traditional Dansko look.</div><div>A pair of Naots that I've had my eye on for a couple of years is the Begonia, which I could see you wearing. I haven't seen or tried them in person. Naots have been one of my favorite shoe brands for comfort; their variety of footbeds fit quite differently, though, so one style is not necessarily like the next. <br /></div><div>Gosh, I wish I had your sandal climate! I like sandals way more than I have the opportunity to wear them in Seattle. I hear you about flipping the boots and sandals ratios. <br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandal-season/page/2#post-2101796 Mon, 24 Feb 2020 19:59:00 +0000 smittie 2101796@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the black bedstus the best. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandal-season/page/2#post-2101791 Mon, 24 Feb 2020 19:43:43 +0000 Jenn 2101791@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b></b>Hmm<b>, Sal.&nbsp;</b>I wonder if sizing up a full size would be too much? &nbsp;I'm a 10, and they don't do a 10.5.</p> <p><b>Janet,&nbsp;</b>I'm glad it's not just me!</p> <p><b>Rebekah,&nbsp;</b>dang, I'm a 10. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sandal-season/page/2#post-2101786 Mon, 24 Feb 2020 19:35:07 +0000 Sal 2101786@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you are considering the EF I went up half a size - they are a close fitting shoe.
