Anyone own Sam Edelman "Gigi" sandal or similar?
How comfortable is it? I'm on the hunt for a cute flat sandal that can stand up to plenty of walking. I have to wear comfortable shoes (various old injuries dictate it).
ISO something to be worn with casual dresses and skirts. Supportive enough to hit the playground or walk the dog.

Re: Anyone own Sam Edelman "Gigi" sandal or similar?
I just bought them a week ago. They're OK, I don't think they're as comfortable as a genuine leather sandal. The piece between my toes cuts into my skin a little and I even sized up. I definitely wouldn't describe them as "supportive" since there isn't any arch support.

Ok, sounds like a pass for me. I don't know if what I'm looking for exists. I always buy these cute summer clothes -- including skirts and dresses, but never wear them because my feet just need comfort and I default back to tennies or keens because I don't know what the day holds in store with two little boys, then I feel like I have to wear tees and cropped pants or shorts cause I'd look goofy with semi-clunky shoes and a summer dress.
So, whoever has a fabulous, comfortable, but still somewhat graceful sandal to recommend -- I'm all ears.

I've heard Tkees are fairly comfy and they are simple. I wear Havainas a lot with dresses or skirts as well as my Rainbows.
My Gigi's don't bother me at all. I also have the Gracies which are cute and simple. They have a nice blush pair as well as metallics.
I have a pair of Steve Madden Grooom sandals from last year that are flat like the Gigi sandals and they are NOT a comfy shoe at all.
I just bought these and love them, they have an arch support and are comfy.

I bought a pair similar to the Gigi last summer from DSW and they are ok..but not major walking shoes although I have worn them to the playground. I also got a pair of Privo sandals (I think that's what they are) and they are definitely more comfortable and supportive.And in the past I had a pair of really simple, minimal strap Dansko sandals that were pretty good as well, but I wore those to Europe and was SO tired of them by the end of the trip I don't wear them much. But they were comfy and supportive.
The Privo's were probably last year's version of this shoe in black patent and I wear them with skirts, shorts, dresses, etc Sorry, I have trouble PIP from this site. . http://www.dsw.com/shoe/privo+by+clarks+zyon+sandal?prodId=237522&cm_mmc=GPS-_-all-_-PrivobyClarks-_-237522&mr:trackingCode=7396E9C2-1754-E111-8274-001B2163195C&mr:referralID=NA&adtype=pla&mr:adType=pla&mr:ad=22570796744&mr:keyword={keyword}
