A comfortable shoe that looks great! I needed it to be a 1/2 size bigger than I usually wear, for more comfort... just a good looking comfortable shoe! Perfect for casual or dressy...

I have very wide feet, they’re like outboard motors, so buying any shoe requires some compromise. I generally wear a 7.5W, but since that wasn’t available, I got an 8 and an 8.5 after reading reviews recommending a larger size. I had to send the 8.5 back, just too long. The 8 fits well, it is a bit snug around the widest part of my foot. The first day wearing them was a bit painful, my feet felt a little pinched, but I really think they’ll give a little. The length is perfect and they are very, very cute! I wanted the anthracite, but they were out of my size, so I opted for the red snaky ones. They seem like good walking shoes. Once they conform more to the shape of my unfortunate feet, I’m sure I’ll wear them everywhere this summer.

Ouch! I got these to be a casual flat, but the first time I put them on, I could barely walk across the room before they were pinching my toes. I am very disappointed, but I will have to continue my search for a comfortable and cute black summer flat.

Being Graceful - Very nice looking even on my wide, muscular feet. As a person who has a hard time being graceful (understatement) with high heels, these make me feel dressed up. They stay on while walking at top speed. I take 8 1/2 or 9 usually - the 9 was the right choice.

The best flat shoe ever. I've worn my pair for some part of every day for 3 months. I thought the black satin would show marks - it doesn't. They don't slip off - and haven't become loose at all. I've since bought two more pairs in different colours, and I'm now thinking of buying them in red. I don't want them to wear out. Plus amazingly fast service from Zappos - I'm a very happy customer.

Shoe Size: Felt a half size smaller than marked Shoe Arch: No arch support Shoe Width: Felt true to width
So, it runs a little small. Other than that, I'm in love. There are all sorts of problems I run into with a lot of other flats: they're tight on the toes, rub the heel, slip off the heel, make my feet look even smaller than the size 6 they already are. I can't complain about any of these things with the Mahdi. They're great for work, and I even wore them working about 12 hours on my feet, with a fairly minimum amount of discomfort (zero is impossible, I think). If I have one style quibble, it's that the crossover fabric is identical from shoe to shoe, rather than being symmetric. But that is honestly a quibble. Other than that, I find myself admiring my own feet when I wear these. In fact, after resolving the sizing issue, I want the black and red versions of these shoes. Order at least a half-size larger. If you're one of those people who tends to sometimes wear a half-size up, I would recommend a full size up, which is what I wound up with.

This shoe is cute on the foot. But, it is at least 1/2 a size too small. I have a small foot and will wear either a 5.5 or 6.0 depending on the shoe. I was purchasing this shoe to use on a vacation where I intend to walk a lot. So, I decided to buy the 6 so I'd have some room for my feet to swell a bit from all the walking. Well, even the 6 was snug. Too snug for my comfort. No arch support either. Too bad. It looks great on the foot.
