Detailed Review
The YANTI Softy Kid Heeled Sandal brings a refreshing feel to your footwear collection. The first thing you will notice is the elegant double strap design that hugs your feet securely without compromising on style. The black color offers versatility, allowing you to pair these sandals with a variety of outfits—be it dresses or tailored trousers.
Comfort is crucial when selecting dress heels, and while the YANTI provides a comfortable fit, it's important to note that those needing significant arch support may want to consider additional inserts. The thin block heel gives you a little lift while maintaining stability, which is perfect for long evenings where you'll be on your feet.
Caring for the YANTI sandals is simple, requiring only a hand wash to keep them looking new. Constructed from synthetic rubber, the sole provides good traction, ensuring you won't slide during your evening out. However, availability in only standard widths could be a drawback for some users.

True to size, stylish and comfortable!!! I bought 2-pair!
These are the perfect heel. Not too high, can be dressed up or down, very comfortable. They do run a little big so I sized down from a 7.5 to a 7. Very happy with them though
I ordered these and also the CLaundry Tete, both in my usual 7.5,, in white. When I opened the box I noticed these were labeled 37 5, European size which is a 7 US size. I tried them on and to my surprise they fit perfect, so that was a good mess up on Amazons part because had I gotten the 7.5 I would have had to return for a smaller size. The straps are comfortable, the heel height is good and no chemical smell to them unlike the Tete which had a chemical smell and were too large in the 7.5.I'm returning the Tete and going with these because they fit so much better. So glad I ordered both styles.So be careful with these, apparently they are sized in European sizes but listed in US size. But for sone reason when they pulled these they must have seen the 7 5 in the 37.5 size and assumed that meant size 7 5 which it does not, but also these must run a bit on the large side, at least these did for me.If they were leather it would be great, but I believe they are synthetic.
I held up the shoes side by side and they were visibly different sizes despite saying they were the same size in the shoe.
Very comfortable , I love it.
Perfect with the dress I wore. Very comfortable.
Pretty but they fall off me and It’s my size.
Cute as can be! Unfortunately over all, their just not Steve Maddens or Nine West.
