Holy Land MarketMen/Women Biblical Jesus Leather Sandals/Slides From Jerusalem (Nazareth Style)

Wonderful craftsmanship. Soles are soft but sturdy. Fit is true to size. Love the leather, quality. They look and feel special. A great value. Will definitely get more sandals from this manufacturer, they are that good.

I don't like wearing shoes in the summer. So from April til September I wear sandals whenever I can. These are finely crafted and the leather is of high quality. The dye and the shiny finish give the sandals a beautiful look. To wear them is almost to be transported back in time. The sizing is true. I wear a men's 9.5, which comes out to be a European size 43. You'll never wear a finer pair of sandals.

Skechers is my favorite brand of shoes due to the comfort, but I needed a different style and look for a sandal to elevate my outfits. I chose this sandal. Since I walk and take public transportation to get where I need to go my shoes and feet get a lot of usage, so discomfort in a shoe producing blisters and pain is absolutely not allowed. What I like about this sandal is that it lends itself to modification for comfort very nicely. I found a thin insole injected with liquid glycerin that moves and adjusts with me as I walk from a company called iGelSoles. I simply superglued each one to my sandals. For any parts of the sandal that were uncomfortably rubbing against my skin as I walked I just cut a piece of a Dr. Scholl's hydrogel bunion cushion and affixed to that area of the shoe. It sticks, it adds cushioning, it can be cleaned and it doesn't need to be changed or re-applied. Everyone's feet are different as are everyone's usage and need for comfort. I hope this review helps someone. If you think you may need these comfort modification suggestions, then I would recommend getting a 1/2 size bigger shoe to accommodate for adding an insole. My feet still fit in my sandals, but I can tell a slight difference from how they fit in the sandals before the insoles were added.

Leather is very rigid

The style is good. I am unsure of the durability down the line. I should have bought size 9 for men. In the slightly larger size which I bought (9.5), the leather rubs against the top skin of the foot/toe. This makes it a little uncomfortable. Snug fit would have been better for me, and also the leather may expand with continuos wear. Also, they are available in only brown color. Black would have been nice too.

These sandals fit like they were made especially for my feet! It didn't take 5 minutes to break them in. The minute I put them on, I knew I finally found my perfect sandals! The craftsmanship seems to be perfection! I wore them to the farmers market and to Walmart the first day with zero issues. I wore them again yesterday to Walmart and 2 other stores and still no issues. I don't expect there to be any problems with these sandals. Well worth the money! I hope they never stop making these. I might go ahead and order another pair so I know I have them just in case. If you are not sure about purchasing these sandals, do yourself a favor and buy them. You won't regret it! I am adding to my review from a few weeks ago to say they are still perfection and my sister who was in a car accident and has the hardest time finding sandals to fit and be able to walk in wanted to steal these off of my feet! I am going to surprise her with a pair. I love love love these sandals! So, I forgot to hit submit in 2018 and now it's 2021 and I just pulled them out for the 4th summer and they are still like brand new! I can't say enough about these sandals!

HATE IS A STONG WORD THAT I PERSONALLY CHOOSE TO NOT USE VERY OFTEN. I HATE THESE SHOES. SO TO BE FAIR I ORDERED SOME IN 41 AND THEY CAME AND WENT. TOO SMALL. SO I SENT THEM BACK AND ORDERED THE NEXT SIZE UP LOGICALLY THIS IS A 42, THESE SHOES CAME AND ARE STILL TOO SMALL. I HAVE NEVER IN MY LIFE WORN A 43. THE CUT IS TERRIBLE THE SHOE IS POORLY CONSTRUCTED WITH DIFFERENT LENGTH STRAPS, ITS ODDLY COLORED AND EVEN THE ODD SHADE IS NOT TH ESAME ON BOTH SHOES. ITS ALMOST LIKE THEY WERE MADE ON TWO DIFFERENT SHIFTS IN DIFFERENT SHOPS AND THEN PAIRED OUT OF A BIG BIN. I AM NOT RETURNING THESE SHOES AS DRIVING TO THE LOCAL UPS DROP OFF IS TOO MUCH A BOTHER.THE COMPANY SENT ME A SURVEY I ANSWERED AND THEY HAVENT EVEN BOTHERED TO RESPOND... BUYER BEWARE IS ALL IM SAYIN. THESE SHOES ARE NOT FIT FOR HUMAN USE.

I got these after having a similar pair I got in India (those lasted 10 years). The sandals have the expected new stiffness but are not uncomfortable and after a week the feel "broken in". For me, these are more for strolling on a warm day / night. Sitting drinking coffee or going out to a casual dinner. These pair well with linen pants, classic khaki shorts. I have Tevas for more active days. If I do happen to get these wet, they will become super slippery and I just take them off if that happens.
