These shoes are perfect for my imperfect feet. I recently had one foot reconstructured and the other needs surgery. I purchased 7 pairs, including Dansko, Clark's, Merrells and Keens, and returned and thought there were no shoes for me. I called again with Alegria as a possibility. I spoke with a rep who had been to the manufacturer and also wears Alegria. She suggested Paloma to me, explaining Alegria have so much padding even the ball of the foot. She said the patents are lined with leather and are extremely soft. I chose the tortoise color to wear with all colors. I had a smile as I put them on. I am amazed by the soft glove leather feel of these shoes. I have never felt shoes like these. I am so glad I tried again and now have these adorable mary janes. Thank you to Zappos for treating me great even though I had returned so many shoes in one month. Thank you to Viola for finding the perfect shoe for me.

I give them 5 stars for comfort but 1 star overall because of the quality. As much as I love these shoes, I have had to regrettably return three pairs of Palomas due to the sole splitting along the butterfly indentation on the bottom of the shoe. I am so disappointed and am frustrated by having to try to find something that will be as comfortable. Zappos has been wonderful through the process, Alegria, on the other hand, said it was a batch issue and not to worry about it (I've had to replace 3 pairs since September 2011.)I currently have two split soles and foot pain as a result.

Comfortable beyond belief and absolutely adorable. The "summer swirl" print goes with everything! I wear an 8.5 to 9 in regular shoes, and the 39 fits perfect. I now have 4 pairs of Alegria Paloma shoes. One of mine did squeak, and talcum powder under the insert did work after it got worked in for a couple days. Love these shoes!

I have 3 pairs of Paloma: blue tile, brown pull-up, & the lady walking with poodle. Love them! They are unique looking & I've had a lot of positive comments. At 64 years old & dealing with back & leg pain, I can't wear heels anymore; and I'm only 5' tall! The little lift Alegria shoes offer, along with the comfort, is heavenly. I just ordered a pair of the Kleo sandals; they are wonderful.

Super comfy! Had been wearing Sanita maryjane style shoes for work and though they were better than athletic shoes, I still had leg and foot pain. Got these in the metallic rose (because I love anything shiny!) and based on all the reviews, I expected no real break in period. Ouch. The first time I wore them I had to go shopping. By the end of the day I was walking on the backs of the shoes because I had fat blisters. Haha for thinking I could wear them like that right out of the box! Second time I wore them for a normal day of work and still got blisters and they were a tiny bit snug still, but I was very happy. Third time, I wore them at a night out after work and ended up partying all night in them! Walked miles in them from bar to bar. Had small blisters the next day, but they were broken in! Now I wear them every day to work and seriously, they are the most comfortable shoe ever! I need more colors and styles! Get compliments on them all the time. So cute!

The shoe appears wide and comfortable; however, after wearing it for few hours it caused severe pain around the toes. The insoles provide sufficient support, but they turned my socks yellow. Will not recommend for long standing or walking. Shoe very narrow inside, but wide externally.

I love the look and feel of these on my feet for comfort in the late winter/early spring here in MN. I am an elementary teacher with arthritis in my low back and knees, so lately I have been needing shoes with more cushion in them. These fit the bill for that. The way the sole is shaped for walking also helps with the comfort. My only two complaints are: (1) they are really, really HOT! They would be much better if they had some vent holes (at least for me) and (2) they are a bit stiff. The stiffness is okay with tights or socks, but I don't think I would dare wear them barefooted for fear of blisters and overheating. I am thinking of taking them to a shoe repair place to see if they can add vent holes...
I'd also recommend: Birkenstock, Earth, FitFlop, Skechers GoWalk, Keen, some Clarks
