Hi shoe sisters

I'm just wondering if anyone can recommend a good walking sandal that's not clunky like Keens yet not meshy and strappy like Tevas. I am headed to The Netherlands in a week and the town I will be in is a car-free space, which I LOVE! But I want to have a good sandal to traipse about in. Is there such a thing as a feminine walking sandal??

I adore gentle souls. I mean I ADORE gentle souls. They are probably the most comfortable shoe I have ever worn. I have gone through 5 pairs now (various styles). They helped commuting in sf. This is what the website says:

"Founded upon the principle that walking doesn't have to be so hard, Gentle Souls has combined revolutionary Displaceable Solid Technology (DST) and contemporary, sophisticated styling to create a line of footwear unlike any other!

Using only the finest leathers and components, Gentle Souls sources from around the globe to ensure the highest quality product.

Our patented technology called Displaceable Solid Technology (DST), creates layers of built in comfort through the use of our unique cushioning features which are highlighted by our specialized flax seed pillows in our insoles. Our signature supple deerskin lining lends extra cushioning, maximum breathability, and support with every step. Our high density rubber soles are lightweight, flexible, and shock absorbing."

GULP! Thems some 'spensive shoes

One more question, I really like these and I love that they come in this light pink color...with strappy sandals I have to be careful that the ankle strap doesn't rub the back of my foot the wrong way. I have the most crazy sensitive feet...and if I'm going to spend that much I want to be able to wear them to work, too.

Yes they are 'spensive. i like a sandal with nothing between the toes to rub. These look nice.

I totally understand! I'm rather sensitive in the heel area (and top o'foot). The leather they use is so super soft and luxe. I never got a blister or anything when first wearing them (or there after). The back of my heel is "narrowish" so most shoes (other than these) rub and cause me discomfort until they break in.

I understand the price point is up there, but the first time I tried a pair on, it felt like I was wearing slippers. Needless to say, I was/ am hooked.

OK. I went to Zappos and got the Gentle Souls and a pair of Camper sandals (love that brand)...that way I can try them out and send back the pair I don't want...for free!

Thanks so much Ladies!
