These shoes are the most absolutely perfect shoes I've ever owned. I actually purchased my first pair from a local shoe store here in Philly about a year and a half ago. I loved them so much and was a little sad when they finally, after being worn relentlessly, began to show some wear on the soles. I knew I would be crushed to not be able to find this shoe again, so when I found them on Zappos, I bought not just one additional pair, but two additional pairs. They're absolutely, incredibly comfortable. I walk an average of 4-5 miles a day in them, and I'm on my feet most of the day while working, and these shoes still feel great at the end of the day. But not only are they comfortable, they're really attractive and versatile. I wear them with just about everything when the weather's warm enough, from casual grocery shopping outfits to nice dinners. They also attract frequent compliments. I don't think I've ever owned a pair of shoes that have received so many compliments. Basically, I can't say enough amazing things about these shoes. My boyfriend makes fun of how fanatically I love them.

These are GREAT shoes. I usually wear an 8 1/2 medium but bought the size 8. I have wide feet so I need to stretch these a bit (I own a shoe stretcher) but after a few wears with band aids on my heels, these are a STAPLE in my wardrobe. I get complements all the time. They go great with skirts, jeans, cargo pants, dresses. I am a believer in Tsubo\'s.

Chic, stylish shoe -
LOVE IT!!! Incredibly comfortable with style. I just returned from Paris, and wore this shoe most days. I received lots of compliments with this shoe. I actually bought 2 pairs last year (black and tan). This year they've come out with a darker brown that I just purchased.

Disappointed -
I thought these shoes would be perfect non-sandal summer comfort shoes. What you don't get from the top view is how oddly they are shaped. The toe bed sticks out really far and angles sharply--it doesn't match the natural toe shape. They were comfy and darn near perfect, but I returned them because the cut just wasn't right.

I was very disappointed -
I searched every brand of shoes to find a low comfortable, good looking shoe to wear with capris, skirts, pants, even a sundress - this shoe looked perfect, not too open, but showed my pedicure... I was heading to Australia and it was their spring and I wanted something I could wear from day into evening that I could be comfortable walking throughout the day. This shoe would be perfect - I did read some other reviews and they did mention that is did run a little narrow, but some people will try to put even the widest of feet into narrow shoes because no one women wants to admit she has wide feet. Sure enough, this shoe definitely runs way too narrow and digs into the side of your foot. The material does not have much give, maybe after more wears, but I will never find out if that is the case... I wanted it to work so bad, I thought I finally found what I was looking for and Zappos delivered it to me before I had even received the e-mail that it was on its way. Great service - I hope they can create a similar design with all around comfort in mind.

After wearing them for a week, I still need a band-aid for my right heel. The heels definitely cut in and rub though they have softened a bit. The cut out around my pinky toe pinched for a while but that has stretched and subsided. They look great; perfect for a more relaxed office, yet not too casual. I guess I thought that Tsubo's reputation for comfort meant they would be instantly wearable. Perhaps another week.

Great shoes -
I agree with most other reviews I read of these shoes. They are comfortable and stylish and I recommend them. My feet can no longer takes shoes without good arch support and these definitely cushion my arches. They look good and you can walk around in them for a good while.

Love Tsubo Shoes - My 11 year old daughter is now taller than me necessitating high heeled casual shoes. I love Tsubo because of the heel and the absolute all day long comfort that this shoe in particular provides. I did size up to a size 9 (typically I am a 8.5 or 8 in Tusbo). The shoe runs a little snug, but the 9 is perfect for my wide foot. It is a lovely shoe for the summer. I have received many compliments on it.

Narrow fit but cute look -
Based on other reviews, I ordered a 7 when I normally wear a 7.5. These are the right length, but they are quite narrow and the band pinches across the top of my foot. Other than that, they feel very comfortable. Because it's hard to find a good summer shoe to wear to work, I'm keeping these and taking them to the cobbler for a stretch. But be warned if you have wider feet!

Love the shoes, but love Zappos service better!!!
I absolutely love my shoes and may be ordering another color for fall, but I was absolutely amazed at the quick service. I placed the order Wednesday evening and my shoes were at my door on Friday afternoon!!!! I have never received anything so promptly. You are to be commended and you better believe I will direct order from you again. Thanks again...You are my first choice for the best company ever...

Great summer walking shoes -
I really loved the look and feel of these shoes. I live in Chicago and do a lot of walking and when wearing these my paws do not hurt. Watch the size... I am a size 8 and in these shoes I am a 7.

Comfortable, stylish, and funky -
Very, very comfortable! As noted in the other reviews, I got a 1/2-size smaller than I typically wear (7 instead of 7.5). The only weird thing about them, which I can totally live with, is that the angle of the toe is much more dramatic than the angle of my feet and actual toes. Still looks awesome.

Extremely uncomfortable - design/manufacturing flaw -
Good looking shoes and felt comfortable, at first. But the top back edge of the shoe is cut a little higher than normal and angles into the back of the foot, and the stitching there is not finished well. As a result, after a few hours of wearing these shoes, the backs of my feet-- just above the heel-- were quite cut up. Bandaids did not relieve the pain. These shoes appear to have either a design flaw or manufacturing flaw. They are not wearable. A complete waste of money.

Comfortable, stylish and versatile!
I got the cream which goes with everything. I love having a little heel in a shoe that walks like a flat. It's like walking on air. The inside is buttery soft with no seams to rub. My only gripe is that I wear a 6 1/2 and I got a 7 from another store and it was too big so I got the 6 from Zappos and it's a tad short. Since your toe hangs out anyway its fine but I wish Tsubo made half sizes!

NOT so comfy!
These seemed like they would be very comfortable, however the back of the heel is WAY too high and stiff, and it really hurts my heels! I am going to have to take them to a cobbler and fix this! Other than that they are comfy, but this is a major problem!

GREAT Shoe!!
These shoes are comfortable and elongate the leg due to the pointed toe and heel height. They do require some work for those with sensitive feet/skin. I strongly recommend adding Dr. Scholl's heel pad to avoid heel rubbing as these shoes do run high in the back. I would also use Body Glide anti chafing during the break in period to avoid any initial rubbing. I know it sounds like a lot of work but for the style and ultimately the comfort it is worth it. I have walked most of Manhattan from dusk to dawn several times in comfort.

Perfect!
I got a pair in red and not only did I love the color, I LOVED how they felt. Fit was perfect and so soft and comfy, they've spoiled me for all my other summer sandals. They're going to Europe and Florida with me and I'm ordering other colors, too.

Disappointed -
I really, really wanted these shoes to work out. And they felt very comfortable at first, but after wearing them for two hours, I had multiple blisters on my heels and another on my pinkie toe. I had to send them back. As for the look, they were cute/ugly at the same time.

Total comfort...
I usually wear a 9.5 -- I ordered a 10, and it was too big (I have a narrow heel) so ordered the 9 and it's perfect. Much cuter than I expected. I do a lot of city walking -- I'll be wearing these all summer.

Tsubo's "Lara"
Usually I wear a 7 1/2 or 8. Occasionally I wear a narrow in an open mule or slide. I first ordered an 8 in CrèMe Lara, but it was too large so exchanged for the 7. At first they were a wee bit snug across the front, but stretched out enough after a day or two. So then I bought the other colors. I love the height, soft "bouncy" comfort, and smart, simple style of Lara.

Very nice -
I was afraid these shoes would be too clunky for me but the diagonal strip is very flattering. I first bought them in red and they were super comfortable. I then bought the black and they rubbed the back of my heel.

Not as cute as I expected -
These were definitely too narrow for me. Pinched my toes. I think this is how the brand runs, however, as I had the same problem with another pair. The style was also not as cute as I had expected based on other's comments.

Love these shoes!!
All I can say is ..WOW....this is the best pair of shoes I have bought in a long time. I am a hairstylist for over 30 yrs and I have a problem standing 40 hrs a week. This company has solved my problem . They are comfortable...my legs and feet don't hurt and great on. I have tons of compliments that they are not "old lady looking...very fashion forward. I wish they would come in half sizes because I float between the two. I highly recommend.

I love this shoe! It's something I can wear to work during those hot days without being too casual. I think this is a perfect blend of sandal/work shoe.
