solovepinkYes, I recommend this product.
so glad I have these sandles
PostedJanuary 10, 2012
I purchased these shoes in the silver and I'm really glad I did. Though one on my stones were lose I was able to fix it.I love that they come in half sizes and they made my feet look so pretty. I agree that the quality of the stones may not be as high quality as some simular looking shoes but for $40 they are well worth it. The padding is nice, the shoes are comfortable and I've had no more issues with the stones.

Very eye catching, but poor quality :(
PostedJuly 21, 2011
I fell in love with these sandals so I ordered them immediately. I used them once for a birthday dinner and when I got home I was very sad to see that the stones were coming off. I didn't return them bc I had already used them. It's been a year since I used them. After I kept them I haven't taken them out of the shoe box.

the gems all fell out
PostedJuly 20, 2011
I wore these one night to a party and before I even left the house one gem fell out, I glued it, I should have taken them right off and returned them, but I was stuck because I had to leave and did not have an alternative pair to wear with the dress I ordered. and the gem didn't stay glued, it fell out and by the time I came home, six gems were missing, and I was not even dancing or anything, how depressing. I should really return them still. very disappointed.

Poor fit, poorly made
PostedJune 6, 2011
These sandals looked so pretty, I had to get them.
I also sent them back. I have a narrow foot, but these were tapping everywhere, and the material is cheap. The stones were not made well into the shoe. They were far too expensive for all that disappointment.

Very cute but.....
PostedMay 31, 2011
Very cute sandal, but they run tight around the top/ankle. I have a skinny foot so these did work, but if you have a not-so-skinny foot they will not fit. They run very true to size, almost on the small side. First time I wore these the stones got gluey/gooey on the top and became dull. I used some glass cleaner and that took care of the problem. I thought it was maybe because my pants rubbed on the stones. The second time I wore them with capri pants and the same thing happened and I also lost two stones. The prongs that hold the stones bend very easily. So, unfortunately these are being returned. These are definitely very cute shoes, but they are defective. Wish they would have worked, I really liked them!

poorly made
PostedMay 21, 2011
i bought them in size 8...they fit but looked large on my feet...when walking the zipper wound klink and everyone hears you coming...the stones are put on the shoe with crimps so if you rub it on anything, and i mean even your leg, they come off...the stones are cloudy and look cheap...I did find them comfortable to wear but after 2 hours had lost 2 stones...I'm not sure why the stones weren't sewn onto the shoe, especially for the price...sent back and hopefully will get a refund as they were falling apart the first time I wore them...do not buy even if discounted.

SAD summer sandal
PostedApril 19, 2011
I ordered this sandal in the turquoise. My foot is narrow but I always wear a B width, and get along just fine. This sandal gaped A LOT, the workmanship was poor and the stone embellishments were cheap looking. DISAPPOINTED. Needless to say, they were promptly returned. Frankly, I was surprised that Boston Proper would offer such a low quality product.

Not Anything Special
PostedApril 7, 2011
"Average" just about sums up how I feel about these shoes. The quality and design isn't anything special, which is surprising for shoes sold by Boston Proper. But these shoes are certainly priced as though they are good quality, so since the quality is so poor, they're definitely not worth the money. Despite the bad reviews, I still wanted to try them because I loved the pewter/turquoise color. But the stones ended up being a dark green color so the shoes don't match the outfits I thought they would. The fit is pretty bad too--they don't fit my feet well and the front stone-encruted panel is too wide. The shoes are stiff and hard to walk in, not to mention uncomfortable. For this high price, I definitely wouldn't recommend them.

IT ISN'T TURQUOISE !!!!
PostedMarch 25, 2011
The picture is turquoise! But what I got was a dark dark emerald green. So dark, in fact, that you couldn't make out the contrast between the pewter and the dark green - not turquoise - stones. So disappointing! Someone goofed and I had to return them. It would have been so pretty if I'd gotten what I ordered!

Glad it isn't just me...

The stones in mine looked dark green too! Thank you--I thought I might be seeing the color wrong but you're right--the stones are NOT the turquoise color pictured in the catalogue.

Horrible Uncomfortable Shoes!
PostedMarch 21, 2011
Where do I start? These shoes are super uncomfortable and you really feel it on the bottom of your feet! These shoes are also super stiff and are very low quality. These are the type of shoes that one would find at a discount/discontinued clearance store. And the price for these shoes absolutely doesn’t make any sense. I’ve been seeing these soes here on this website I think for a couple of years now. They’re obviously not selling for several reasons: Horrible comfort and an outrageous price.
If one buys these shoes, you’ll probably end up returning them. I too am a shoe lover, but I love beautiful, quality shoes that are a pleasure to wear. These shoes are not it.

I only wish that they came with extra stones.
PostedMarch 8, 2011
I love the style of these Marrakesh thong sandals - they match the dress that I also purchased through Boston Proper perfectly. I must say that the design of the prongs that hold the stones on the sandal could use a little refining, maybe a glue or an epoxy along with the prong to hold the stone in place might be a good idea. I would strongly suggest sending a few extra stones with the order or a web address to where they could be purchased.
