Combination of fun and comfort

I was looking forward a pair of sandals for fun evenings that are comfy but still stand out a bit and this one hits the mark perfectly. I love the fun heel in shape of a golden ball which comfortable to stand and walk on and the fine straps of the sandal which make them look and feel airy. The foot bed is great with enough cushioning to make it through a reception and fun to look at with the color schema. I had assumed that the straps could be a bit tight (past experience with other sandals, for some reason many straps don’t work on my feet) so I sized up by half a number and stuffed wet kitchen towels under the front strap for one night - everything is perfect now and I am enjoying the new sandals.

Unique but it hurts

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Unique kitten heel. It has a rounded heel instead of the traditional pointed one. The straps Avery thin so they dug into my feet. It did hurt after a short while. I would not recommend these for chubby or wode feet individuals. There was decent cushioning but i could not last Walking around in them for long.

Cute heels, a little tight on top of foot

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These shoes are super cute! They are great for dressing up, or for a casual fit. I loved the cream neutral color that truly goes with everything. The gold heel is unique and I liked the square shaped toe as well. They are super lightweight shoes, and relatively comfortable. The only downside for me is that they were a little tight across the top of the foot, but I've had this issue with other shoes in the past. If you have also struggled with this, know that those top straps lack adjustability. However, after some gently stretching of the straps by hand, they were more comfortable and I was able to wear them for an evening out.

Fit beautifully into my wardrobe!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'm really happy with these sandals! They're incredibly comfortable with a low, unique heel that adds just a right touch of style without sacrificing comfort. At first the toe area felt a little snug, but after wearing them a few times, the straps softened and stretched perfectly to my foot shape.

So comfortable and cute

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I usually wear 8, but ordered 8.5 and it fits perfectly fine. If you are in between go up half size. It is so soft wearing it, as if it is slippers. And donut shape gold cute hills looks so stylish and trendy. It matches with every outfit. I love this color. The best flat dress shoes I ever owned.

Great Little Summer Sandal

Just got these sandals in gold, and really like them. I have a very high arch and a medium width foot; the straps are comfortable enough, but for such a minimalistic shoe, I wouldn’t want to walk any distance in them. Very cute, and glad I got them on sale!

Cute!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Super cute! The soles of the shoes are padded which I love. The heel is very low so it’s more decorative then anything else. The shoes are narrow so keep that in mind if you have a wider foot but definitely a cute and comfortable statement shoe for the summer.

Elegant, comfortable and well-fitting sandals, ideal for prolonged use without sacrificing style.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Sandals Caía Ankle Strap Heeled Sandal by Circus, I was greatly surprised, the appearance is very elegant and easily matches formal and casual outfits. In terms of comfort, the heel is stable and very comfortable even after several hours of use. The fit is good thanks to the ankle strap, which provides walking safety. The grip is also suitable, avoiding slippage. On durability, the materials feel good quality. In general, they are a good option if you are looking for style and comfort in the same footwear.

I love the sandal as a whole very unique and diverse piece

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wore the sandals threw out the last two weeks for an official review I say they’re not for wider size foot because of the straps regardless of if you can adjust the straps the soles feel like pillows and the added gold heel really bought the life back on these I love the details are run and for all ages

Cute and Stylish

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Stylish sandals that are a bit narrow if you have wider feet. Maybe sizing half a size up would help. Besides the narrow straps the sole does have some cushion therefore makes them comfortable.

Gorgeous sandals

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These sandals from Circus are aesthetically beautiful, perfect sandals to pair with a nice dress when going out! I love how soft the footbed of the sandal is and I can wear them a long time without my feet feeling uncomfortable or any blisters. I would say sizing is spot on, so stick to your shoe size when purchasing.

Great, but...

Let me start by saying that I absolutely love these sandals. The style was everything I hoped it would be when I received them. The low heel height is great. There is a but ...... I don't know what the designer was thinking, but the front strap that goes across the toes is too short and tight. I do not have wide feet at all, and the front strap is painfully too tight. Other than that the sandal is great with fit and style. I like the sandal so much that I'm thinking about taking them to the shoe shop to see what could be done about that strap though bcuz i can't wear them as is. Would also like another color if something can be fine about the strap. Purchased the size 12.
