These are the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn. I can wear them all day and my feet never feel tired. They run large. I usually wear a size 39, but wear size 38 in these.

These shoes are amazing from the look to the comfort, arch support and great with orthodics. These darling little beauties do run a size large.

Love these shoes! Very comfortable being on my feet at a trade show for 4 days...no more back and foot pain. The Patent Black are a bit dressier too. I was asked by so many people what brand and where did I get them. I'm placing an order for more today!

Love these! I'm a nurse in a hospital and am on my feet all day long, I wore these shoes today and for the first time, I went home without extreme foot pain! These are awesome! They do run a size big so it's best to buy a size smaller than you normally wear.

This shoe seems like it would be very comfortable, but I have to return as they are too wide for my feet. They would be great for someone with a wider foot. Thanks for the super fast shipping!

I think I'm in love with my new shoes and they're chunky and funky and feel great. I would disagree with one reviewer, who said they feel a size larger than marked. I bought the 42, which is supposed to be like 11 1/2 to 12, and that's what these are. I'd prefer more of a 12 than a 11 1/2, since I can just feel the shoe front with my toes. Maybe they stretch a little over time, but from the box, they're true to size, at least in my case. Feels like good support and nice rolling action. These are going on a two-week walking tour of London and Paris soon and I hope they feel as good at the end of the trip as they do now!

I LOVE these shoes. I am a RN and wearing Sanita/Danskos caused my toes to go numb. These provide the support of clogs, but are wonderful on your feet. They are also great for back support. I highly recommend them to anyone who is on their feet all day. (PS: I wear a 7 1/2 and got a size 38, which is a little loose.)

Seriously cute shoes! They don't look bad even on my big ol' foot, but they don't fit. Other reviewers said they ran large, so I risked trying a size smaller than my normal size when my size was out. Alas, 'twas not to be - I still need my normal size. Hopefully, they'll have my size soon.

I absolutely love those shoes. I am a pharmacist & I stand all day in 10 hour shifts...my feet love these! I own more pairs than I need & will order more! I was previously a Dansko fan, but hated how heavy those seemed to be, but the support was great. These are much lighter weight and super comfy! You will not be disappointed.
Brands I'd also recommend: Dansko (although heavier)

When I first put these shoes on I never took them off. Being a mother of 3 I need to have comfortable shoes and these shoes have yet to fail.

I bought these shoes last fall and they have been my go to shoes ever since. Far and away the most comfortable shoes I own. I originally thought they looked kind of clunky, but every time I wear them I get compliments on how cute they are.

Great for skinny feet! First clog I've found that I don't walk out of. Be sure to choose one with a velcro closure ("button"). After wearing around the house and on short errands for a week, I was able to be in them for a 10 hour standing work day. Going to be hot in the summer, though.

I first saw these shoes at the Birkenstock store in my town - thought they were so cute and funky but I was buying a pair of Birks at the time and didn't feel like spending another chunk of cash at the time. I couldn't keep these shoes out of my thoughts though. I came home and hopped online and thankfully found them at Zappos and bonus - they were cheaper! These shoes rock! They are comfy and so cute. I have gotten a ton of compliments on them. I wear them to work with my scrubs and also for casual wear. This particular pair has so many colors that they match all of my cool scrub colors. I plan on buying more of these - absolutely love at first sight!

Alegrias are so comfortable and so much fun! I bought the basic black Paloma for choir performances when I have to stand still for over an hour. But now I have thrown caution to the wind and own four more pairs, including the fun prints and ones with bejeweled buckles! I have always worn Danskos for the arch support, but these are even better. I disagree with all those who say they run big, or maybe I just like them looser. I wear a 7-1/2 in most shoes, which according to the Alegria size chart is a 37. But I wear a 38 in Danskos and Birkenstocks because I don't want them to hug my foot like a sneaker, so for me, the Alegria 38s are perfect. If you want them to feel secure like a running shoe or fashion pump, buy a size smaller. If you want to wallow in comfort and have happy feet, buy your true size. (Having said that, I must add a detail: I buy the 38s in the closed styles - Paloma and Feliz and in the Classics, but a 37 in the open-toe sandals.)
Brands I'd also recommend: Sanita, Birkenstock, Danso

The Paloma's are very cute. However, if you have wide feet or a bunion these shoes are not for you. I wore them to work and by the end of the day my feet were throbbing. If you have a normal width they would probably be quite comfortable.

If I could, I would buy a pair of these for everyone I know. I'm a hair stylist and I'm on my feet for 8 hours a day, 5-6 days a week. My feet feel as good after work as they do before!

Love, love, love the shoes! I did order them a size larger due to other reviews and when I got them, found they were then too big. Easy return exchange and my true size fit perfect. Very comfortable!

I wish these worked for me. They are comfortable and lightweight but I have big ankles and when I walk the shoe rubs against it. Blisters.
