Gift 2 sandals offer a perfect fit, exceptional comfort, and great style. Customers praise the soft leather, excellent arch support, and variety of colors. While most appreciate the quality, some note sizing inconsistencies.

"These were suprisingly very comfortable right out of the box. Based on other reviews of the leather breaking down quickly, I applied leather conditioner before wearing them. So far the leather has performed as expected. The sandals look great with shorts, pants, and sundresses. I wear 7. 5m and the 8 is just barely long enough, so I think they run slightly short."
"This shoe is great because it's a thong-style that looks like a dressier slide. The metatarsal pad isn't as supportive on the soft footbed as it is on the cork footbeds, so I will probably stick with the Perfect sandal in the future. Usually wear a 7. 5 and ordered an 8. The length fits great, but I wish they were more narrow."
"Very nice but run small for my 7 wide feet, should have sized up 1 as the edge of my foot hits the back. Alas, final sale, which is annoying for a pretty expensive shoe. I’m wearing them to see if I can break them in but they clearly aren’t as comfortable as the adjustable pair I got on sale too."
"I typically do not wear thong/slide sandals anymore because of the pressure it puts on my 2nd toe. Really liked the look of the Gift 2 and decided to try it due to the amount of coverage over the top of the foot. I love them! There was no flop when walking, still had great arch support while having a nice amount of cushion - almost like wearing a slipper. Another pair added to my Taos collection of shoes!"
"So far I have had to exchange twice. The white gift 2 are wider than the champagne colour I have and I have had to abandon trying to get a white pair that fits properly. I am now going to try black for a good fit. I don't think having to pay for insurance to make exchanges or returns is good business practice. Just make shows which are consistent in manufacturing and advertize the exact measurements so people aren't left guessing."
"Love the shoe! The quality & comfort you expect from Taos. I wish they did half sizes! I’m an 8. 5 and opted for the 8. I should have gone to 9. If you get the right size, you will not regret buying this shoe!"
"I am very happy with my Gift 2. I've been wanting to buy some Taos sandals for a long time, but always put it off due to expense. I do think they are a great sandal, not perfect, but very good and very comfortable. I love it when it is not necessary to "break in" a new pair of shoes. These were comfortable from the minute I put them on."
"This is my 3rd pair of Taos Guft 2 shoes. My feel love them. They are well made and very comfortable. They hide my bunion and do not hurt my feet."
"My favorite, most comfortable shoes I've ever worn. I hate when summer ends and I have to put them away!"
"So comfortable. I wore these sandals for the first time today, for hours. Hated to take them off. Hope to buy more colors next summer. I am so happy with this purchase."
