Shoe Arch: No arch support

These are the most uncomfortable shoes I have ever owned. I was trying to be frugal and get a pair of shoes for a cheap price and I got what I paid for! I had to pull out that horrid gel pad to even get through the day with them on. I have pretty narrow feet and can wear almost any pointed toe shoe but these were tight even on me. It is a shame because they look cute on.

Fitzwell's heels are just too hard. Every Fitzwell shoe I've tried is too hard in the heel and not comfortable. The heel is supposed to be gel and more comfortable, but I find it to be the opposite.

Too low in front - Too much toe cleavage showing, had to return them. Don't mind a little bit, but these were not flattering.

Terrible fit even if it looks pretty good! These shoes were really stiff when I first got them and the gel sole was a little uncomfortable -- but I stuck it out and spent a couple months (MONTHS!) breaking them in. The problem with these shoes is that despite looking fairly cute, they are narrow (so you have to order a 1/2 size up) but too long. My toes were scrunched and once I broke these in, my heel would slip out of the shoe as I walked. Possibly my most disappointing purchase on Zappos.

Not true to size - The toe box is too small, felt very tight. These exposed more toe than it appears.

Cute shoe but ouchie - These shoes are really cute...I got the leopard print...they were a little weird at first because they are wide and show a lot of toe cleavage. I thought they were too big (6 1/2), but I put them back on and wore them around the house a bit and I started to get the feel for them. They gave me a blister on one foot and it took about a week or so to break in, but now I love them. They could use a little more padding inside but I'm used to the fit and they look good with everything.

Don't Buy This Shoe - This shoe is the most uncomfortable shoe I have ever worn. By the end of the day my feet hurt so bad I could barely walk. What a waste of money.

Nice shoes - I love the look of the animal-print Vanessas. They run small by about 1/2 size, in my opinion. They are pretty comfortable... nothing extra in the way of padding but decent.

Cute, but not that comfortable - I ordered these for work to replace my heels as I'm 8 1/2 months pregnant and can't bear even a 1" heel. They look great on but the toe box is really narrow (I have a normal width foot) and the heel coverage is low. The leather is also not the greatest and kinda squeaks a little when you walk. Not my favorite pair of shoes to say the least. I kept them for their basic style but wouldn't recommend them if you're on your feet/walk a lot.

*Hurts* These shoes are cute, but I already ordered half a size up (10.5 - I was really happy Zappos has a 10.5 btw) but they are still way too small and hurt my toes. They say you should order half a size up with pointy ones, but I would make it a full size with these.

Nice looking shoe, but plain uncomfortable. I was surprised because I own another pair of Fitzwell’s that are super comfy despite their heel.

Love this shoe so much...that I bought it twice!!! This is a great shoe. I'm really tall and its a) hard to find shoes big enough that look cute and b) hard to find shoes that could go fancy like heels! This shoe does both, takes a little breaking in though. Definitely a good buy, I wear them constantly!

This is a great looking and well made shoe, but it is terrible uncomfortable on my toes. I'm hoping this will improve as they are worn more.

Cruel Shoes!!! Maybe it is just my foot, but I have never worn a more uncomfortable shoe. They slice like a knife right across the big toe. Because they are cute I have tried to wear them several times but the best part of wearing them, unfortunately, is taking them off!!

Uncomfortable Shoe - Returned - This shoe had to be returned. The size was fine but overall the shoe was uncomfortable. The design is not quite right. The sides are very low so you have to try hard to keep the shoe on your foot and not much of the toe area actually covers your toe (toe cleavage) which makes it hard to walk in as well. It's too bad because they are cute and look good in person. Maybe you will have better luck.

Great shoes but... Took sometime to get used to the shoe- course it is very opened ,they do really slip off if you decide to wear them over hose: someone suggested an insole to prevent slipping out- good idea. Looks great with anything.

Great - This shoe is great. it fit me true to size, is comfortable (after about a week of breaking in, but that's normal)and has a great look, great for jeans, work, etc. my only suggestion is perhaps to insert heel pads as to reduce slipping out of the shoe, because they do mold quickly.

Too tight - Really nice shoes but squeezes your toes... I personally could not walk with them. For the same size, there are small than the RSVP ones.

Odd sizing, bought in wide width - This shoe flopped off my feet in size 6.5 wide, so I ordered a size 6 wide - which I could barely put my foot into. The differential between one half size was extraordinary. I think that finding the proper size in this shoe is a crap shoot. Good-looking, but not worth the effort of dealing with returns.

Cute but weird fit - These shoes are cute, but they fit weird. They show a lot of toe cleavage on my feet. They open too wide in the front so they slip off, but at the same time they rub several places and would definitely cause blisters. It's too bad because they are cute and the sole seems very comfortable. I'm returning them.

Very Cute, but the fit is awkward - Although this shoe is adorable the fit is not ideal. I ordered a half size larger thinking that with the pointed toe that would be appropriate, but the shoe is so low in the front that there isn't much coverage of the foot and thus slips off my foot easily. I would order your true size. They fit better with bare feet, but if you wear nylons forget it! I'm not used to shoes w/ lots of toe cleavage and because of that these rub my toes in very odd spots causing some blisters at first. I have narrow and thin feet so perhaps that is the cause of most of my problems with this shoe. If I hadn't already worn these shoes I would have returned. Definitely a miss for me on these shoes, but I love Zappos.com and have had great success with other purchases in the past. Great service!!

Chicago - This shoe is ultra-cool looking - sleek and sexy for a flat. The only problem is that they seem to run a little small and the toe area squishes a little. I think with a little breaking in around the house I’ll be able to wear them out for a longer period. Love the shiny leather!
