“I found the heel leather stiff and got a large blister in the first 100 metres of wearing them on one foot.It then burst and I had to walk barefoot around Melbourne until I found a shop that sold flip flops. I was so disappointed as i had waited a year to buy a pair of sandals from bared. Maybe I picked the wrong style? I am not brave enough to wear them again”
Hi Jo,
Thanks for your review.
We look forward to hearing how you go once you've tried all the tips we've suggested to help soften the leather so the shoes are super comfy for you! :)
Kind Regards,

“I love these sandals. They are so stylish and the most comfortable shoes I own. I have worn them all summer as they go with everything. I really want them I the leopard print too! Highly recommend!”
“I wear my Auklets everywhere! I used to have problems with flats as my heel would get sore quickly when walking. But not since i wore my Auklets. So comfy and pretty! I can take long walks now without heel pain ^_^.”
“I have this shoe in the leopard print and love it. So comfortable. I have a very narrow foot and find it so hard to find shoes that fit. Because this shoe is adjustable it's perfect! Would definitely recommend!”
“I deliberated for a while about what my first pair of Bared shoes should be, and decided on the olive Auklets. The stylish hardware makes them great for work and casual wear, and never has a pair of sandals I’ve owned received so many compliments! Some advice for new players though; buy your regular size and make sure the ankle strap is tight otherwise you’ll slip forward in them. If not you’ll think they’re too big, but they’re not. And get ready to have to use some bandaids on the back of the ankle until the leather softens. But trust me, it’ll be worth it.”
