Clarks womens Leisa Faye Sandal, Black Leather, 7.5 US

I am 73 years old, and, in my years, I have bought quite a few pairs of sandals This year, I needed some new sandals and, since we are caring from my 100 year old mother, I don't have time to get to a store to find sandals that fit. Considering the COVID-19 problems, I prefer to shop on-line when I can. I found these Clark's sandal on Amazon and decided to try them because of the many favorable review. I did order them a 1/2 size smaller than I usually wear per the suggestion of other buyers, and they fit perfectly. I actually bought 3 different colors and wore the red ones all day today with no cutting into my foot, no slipping on my ceramic floor, and no foot sweating.So, why do I love these sandals so much and how do they compare to other sandals I have bought in the past?1 - I have a high instep and most sandals and shoes that go over the top of the foot are too tight and cut into my feet. These sandals have 3 adjustable straps that can be adjusted to fit anyone - including me.2 - The Eva sole is textured and not at all slippery on smooth floors. From what I have found in research, the Eva sole is a copolymer of vinyl acetate and ethylene that is lighter and more flexible than rubber, and is one of the best shock absorption materials made today.3 - The Ortholite footbed is covered with a soft textile material that does not cause my feet to sweat. Most of the sandals I have bought in the past had a plastic-like footbed that caused my feet to sweat, and eventually the sandal and my feet got a bit stinky. That doesn't happen with these sandals. Ortholite is an open-cell foam known as a "Lazy Recovery Foam" that conforms to the shape of your foot and instantly rebounds to the original shape.Regardless of all the techy stuff, I love these sandals because they are the most comfortable sandals I have ever bought. I also bought the white and blue-grey sandals in this style. The blue-grey color is lighter than shown on the product page. I would describe it more as a silver-grey color.UPDATE 8/26/20:When sandals are worn every day, they get soiled on the inside foot bed, often showing toe-shaped dirty marks. Today, I decided to try cleaning the dirty mark at the toe area of the footbed. I wet a washcloth and rubbed some dish washing soap into it. Then I rubbed the dirty marks with the wet, soapy washcloth until the dirty marks were gone. I rinsed this area with clean water from the faucet being careful not to get the upper leather part wet. After rinsing, I used paper towels to absorb as much of the water from the footbed as possible, and set the sandals aside to dry. Once dry, the sandals looked like new again. I have done this to a couple pairs of these sandals, and it works like a charm.I have been wearing these sandals every day for over 4 weeks, and they are as comfortable as when I first got them. They have not stretched out at all and still fit perfectly. I really love that my feet don't sweat when wearing these sandals as they do in sandals with vinyl or plastic insoles.I hope this review is helpful for you, and I will update it if my opinion changes.

I have several styles of Clarks sandals and these are my current favorite. The design is pretty and each strap has velcro fastenings you can adjust the fit with. They're really comfortable and look great with jeans or shorts. Clarks normally run true to size for me but these seem to be a little larger, and I might have been able to manage an 8.5 or 8 instead of my usual 9. Your mileage may vary, but sometimes summer sandals with adjustable straps give you a little flexibility. If I order another color I'll size down and edit this review to let you know how that works out!UPDATE July 22, 2021 - I did order a second pair in white in size 8.5 and they are a perfect fit! The straps just needed to be loosened slightly, but the length of the shoe is ideal, only slightly larger than my foot. I will still wear the 9's too, but I can definitely confirm that for me going down a half size gave me the ideal fit.

I bought the Clark Leisa Faye sandal and I am very happy I did. It is true to size and very comfortable - plus it is adorable. I have a wide foot and this fits perfectly. Because they are adjustable, I think they would fit an average foot as well. I would happily buy them again in another color. They were discounted a bit the day I got them but they are easily worth full price. Others have said they don't have good arch support but I have a high arch and they are just fine

I love these shoes! They are attractive and very comfortable. I know I can slip into these when I’m going to be walking around for a long time, but don’t want to wear an athletic walking shoe. I’d definitely buy them again.

These are very cute on as well as comfortable. I have one wider foot due to a bunion but these do fit if I adjust the straps. I wear an 8.5 W and these just fit so I think they run small and not like a true wide width. I do predict that the leather will stretch eventually so then they'll fit perfectly. They're well cushioned but with no arch support at all. Methinks they will not be comfortable over a couple hours.

I like Clarks shoes as I can depend on them being quality, fit as ordered, and they last a long time with regular wear. I have a similar pair that I have worn on a daily basis except in the winter time ... They are still in good shape and comfortable my favorites with Jeans, dresses , or shorts .. the older ones are brown, so I needed new shoes for a wedding that I was going to and found the same shoe in white.. had to buy them...

I really like the quality of Clark shoes. Because I have bunions (dang nabit) I need a wider shoe. These are adjustable and work well for a good fit. I could live in sandals, but alas--I live where it snows.

Purchased it for my mother and she loves it. It looks very clean and crisp on her feet and appears comfortable and supports her arch adequately.
