Okay, usually I can decide on which color of shoes to get, but these shoes are not my style so none of them look that great to me. However, I need a good walking sandal for WDW and these get great reviews. What color is the most stylish (I know these aren't fashion sandals!)?

Alternately, recommend your comfortable sandals if they are more stylish.

Thanks!

Keens are always too flat in the arch for me!! I prefer Chacos-the Z strap ones--they have an awesome arch that allows you to walk all day. I have them in a blue print and they are as attractive as those sandals get! So this one:

Mine are Cascade Brown and I think they go with a lot of things. I also liked the Beet Red. I have a low arch and find them to be perfect for long walking trips.

Oooh. I am in the process of buying these sandals. I was thinking of doing the brown so I'm glad you posted about that.

I love my Teva Zirras and they're "dainty" enough to be dressed up, if you're not opposed to open-toe (see the customer images). I've worn them twice to Disneyland already and will be wearing them again to Disneyland this summer PLUS I wear them almost every summer day and it's been 2 years. I've worn them to work conferences that requires lots of walking across HUGE convention centers (and will do it again next month!). I almost feel like I need to buy another pair just to have on hand when my current ones wear out (they still look new, and I wash them with mild soap and water).

I have Teva Tirras and love them. I wear them almost every day in the summer, and can walk in them for hours.

I have high arches and find the Rose to be comfortable - even during a long day of walking at Disney. I like neutrals and get the most wear out of my Black pair and my Cascade Brown pair. I also have and like the Ensign Blue.

I have these as well, in the Decadent Chocolate color (almost has a purplish tone to it, rather than just dark brown). I got them when we were going to Washington DC and I knew we would be doing a lot of walking. I also wore them to Hersehy Park all day last summer and they did well.

Keens-- the folks at the nature reserve always buy keens in brown and I think that looks great. Like a very dainty hiking boot instead of like a very clunky sandal.

To be honest I think the Rose is kinda old lady looking shoe.
I have the Whisper.
I like the Whisper slide even better: http://www.amazon.com/Keen-Womens-Whisper-Sandal-Liqueur/dp/B003Z4JV80/ref=sr_1_44?s=apparel&ie=UTF8&qid=1432003762&sr=1-44
Or maybe the Naples for a less sporty look? http://www.amazon.com/Womens-Naples-Sandal-Cascade-****ake/dp/B00E0GIWAK/ref=sr_1_20?s=apparel&ie=UTF8&qid=1432003815&sr=1-20

I have a very narrow foot and all of the ones on here didn't work for me. I love these, they look better on and in person than in the picture. And they are super comfortable! I can walk miles in these with no issue. They have a slight rocker bottom to make walking effortless.

They are the fitflop Petra style...http://www.fitflop.com/womens/womens-sandals/fitflop-petra-in-leather-|-official-fitflop-store/883945638930.html?start=62&cgid=womens_sandals

I also have Maui Jim flip flops which are super comfortable, but going to the theme parks, or longer distances, it's my Fit Flops all the way!

I love my Keens! Personally I would choose a fun color, something that would complement your wardrobe. My least favorite are the black and light beige.

I found that the Keen Rose ran a half size too small. Anyone who has the Tirra, was it true to size?

I always wear a 7M, and that's what my Tirras are, they fit fine. It did take some time to figure out the best way to adjust the straps around the ankle so they didn't rub, but that is not a sizing issue.
