Review on Adidas Womens Adilette Sandal White Women's Shoes by Michelle Wilson

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Odd shoe size

TLDR: If you wear a half size, please take the next full size up.-------------- -- - ------------------------------------ The sizes for them are slightly different from Adidas online. For example, I ordered a pair of WOMEN shoes in size 6 from adidas.com and they were almost 2 sizes too big for me. I eventually returned them and found that a women's size 5 or child's 4.5 fits me, while my NORMAL size is 6.5 elsewhere (Nike, Asics, etc.). My last purchase from Adidas.com was in February, so I know the sizes I chose (4.5 and 5) were the newest. The reason I address all sizing tests is because it took me 3 different purchases to find my size. With the thought that my last Adidas purchase was for a size 6 and the 6 was too big, I wanted to make sure I wasn't ordering the wrong size this time. I read the reviews on the Revain website to see if anyone else had the same sizing issues. I read some reviews that said the size was not true to size and was actually too big so I ordered a size 5 Adilette sandal. I will also note that Revain sizing recommended a size 5.5 based on other shoes I've bought in the past) They were WAY small so I had to return them to buy a size 6, because i thought they could fit better (remember , elsewhere i have a real size 6.5 so i still feel these sandals are too big based on these revain reviews and my experience with other adidas shoes.) So I go back a size 5 and reorder a size 6. Got a size 6 and they were STILL small. I'm frustrated at this point, so I'm swapping them out for 7's ONCE AGAIN, and they turned out to be the pair that suited me best. Still LITTLE big, but not by much. The pics posted are of 7. Please note that I have thin/narrow feet so I REALLY need to strap them around my ankles to keep them in place when walking. I'm not sure if maybe it was my batch of sandals that were "more correctly sized" or something, but I don't know how anyone in these reviews could suggest a downsizing. As for their overall construction, they're comfortable, but they're not made for standing for long periods of time. periods. I think they're comfortable, but because they're foam I can't stand or walk in them for more than a couple of hours before my toe pads bother me. I'm in good shape as I walk/run at least 3 miles a day and lift weights so I can sustain long periods of time if needed. just uncomfortable in these sandals. They're cute and I wear them quite often now for shopping, targeted running or just everyday activities, but because the black areas of my shoes are, as they say, 'matte'. soft touch" they scratch more easily.

Pros
  • Upper measures approximately 6-12 inches from the arch of the foot
Cons
  • Slim
