One Great Shoe -
The Sofft Callan shoe is one great shoe. The workmanship is excellent. The look and comfort are also excellent. The fit is one reason I always look first for Sofft shoes. They are extremely comfortable and true to size. I will continue to shop for Sofft shoes, first.
Other shoes recommended by reviewer: RSVP and Bandelino are also great shoes

Cute but small -
I should have read the reviews. Most people said this shoe was a half size too small and indeed it was. It's a very cute shoe, but very small toe box along with simply just being too short! Unfortunately, I wear a 12M and this brand does not come in a size larger for me.

A Nice Surprise!
I have been searching for a brown patent dress shoe with a heel height I can actually be comfortable with and this was a wonderful surprise. It is cuter than the picture and the color of the patent has a little bronze to it. The sole and heel are not dressy but this is not a factor once they are on. The rounded toe makes my foot look smaller--and I am a ten. I really love this shoe.

Cute shoe but...
Not the most comfortable shoe. The toes are scrunched and the inside leather is somewhat irritating - not soft enough. I love the look of the shoe so I wear it, and I ordered a wide size and does not feel as wide as it should.

Cutouts in an odd position for my foot -
These shoes are adorable in the box. The brown patent leather is rich, shiny, a great color. The toe box is just rounded enough to be very comfortable, all around styling is great.
If only this shoe didn't have cutouts! The larger outside cutout landed on my foot in a very strange place. The "peep toe" effect from the cutout exposed exactly half of the toenail of my fourth toe -- how weird is that? If only skin was showing, it would have been okay, but can you imagine how odd this would look even without painted toenails?
Dear Sofft: please make this exact same shoe in a version with no cutouts, and I will buy it immediately.
If you like the look of the shoe, it would be worthwhile to give it a try and hope that the cutouts match up with your feet in a more harmonious manner. I have rather wide feet with fairly short toes. Perhaps this design would work better if your feet and toes are more sleek and narrow?
Other shoes recommended by reviewer: Sofft Monarch, similar but no cutouts, more narrow though!

Great look, but can rub the wrong way -
After purchasing the brown patent, I received more compliments on this shoe than I have any other in recent past. I have it in black patent too but the brown really sparkles. The sole and heel are great as far as being soft and flexible, but the uppers (on both pairs) have rubbed the top of my big toe by the first joint. Not enough to cause blisters or serious discomfort. I have worn them to do serious walking (1-2 miles during the day) and they do well but for these spots. Well worth it--they make my feet and legs look great--and draw those compliments...

Sofft Callan: The best shoe for the professional woman -
This shoe is very comfortable for those professional women that are on their feet the majority of their time. I found this particular shoe to be the prefect dress shoe, especially if your wear business attire to your work place every day. I also found this shoe to be the most comfortable if you have to stand a long period of time. The sole of the shoe enables your feet and legs to be relaxed at all times. To the designer of this particular shoe, I say thank you. It tends to make your feet look smaller than they really are. Overall, this is a very comfortable shoe that fits your feet, perfectly. I have two pairs; a brown pair and a black pair. Both pairs make my feet look so eloquent with my business attire.
Other shoes recommended by reviewer: I have only tried this particular shoe.

So Sofft -
I'll come back for this shoe! It's so soft, well made and very comfortable, but I need a 1/2 size bigger (10M instead of 9 1/2M).

My Favorite Shoe Purchases in a Long Time!
I'm an attorney and need comfortable yet professional good-looking shoes for the office - nearly impossible to find! I ordered the Callan in Black Patent and Dark Brown Patent and they are everything I wished for. In my opinion, they run true to size (I usually am a size 7 and the 7 wide fit me perfectly). My only gripe is that I wish there was an extra notch in the heel strap. Other than that, they're absolutely perfect! The dark brown patent has a pretty golden shimmer in the sunlight and the black patent looks so sharp. Zappos service is phenomenal. Ordered the day before and received them the next day!

Runs 1/2 size small -
I loved this shoe, but it runs a half size small--I'm a classic 9M and it turns out I need a 9 1/2, so I'm returning them. Well made shoe, comfortable, a great look with dress slacks which is what I bought them for. I'm a trainer and consultant so I'm on my feet in front of the room and walking miles through airports a lot, and these would have been perfect. I'll put in my request for a 9 1/2 (they're out of it in the dark brown patent) and hope.

Small toe box -
Pretty cute shoe. Heel is short enough for everyday use, but the toe box is very small. I ordered a wide and there still wasn't enough room for my toes. I think it's because there is padding in the toe box, so it doesnt leave much room for your toes. I returned them.

Beautiful and comfy, except for the toe - These shoes are gorgeous (in dark brown patent) and were very comfy when I wore them in my house. At work the next day, however, my toes were very cramped. I am going to exchange for a half size up. I hope it works because I love the look of this shoe!

This shoe is very stylish. My 24 yr. old daughter was impressed that I had ordered it. The patent leather was softer and more considerate of my bunions and hammer toe, but I did order it in the dark brown leather which is really a smart looking shoe
but a stiffer feel.

Sofft Callan -
Very pretty shoe makes my feet look smaller. It seemed short in length, however, and I will be returning it for a larger size. It seems as if it will be comfortable, which is unusual for me since I usually avoid heels.

Almost Perfect -
This shoe was very nice and seemed like it would be very comfortable. Unfortunately, it was about 1/2 size too small. Since I wear an 11, there was no bigger size to order! I really liked the rounded toe box. Oh well - I'll keep trying!

Softspots Callan -
I love the look of these shoes because they have a nice looking, lower heel. I can wear them with pants or a dress without having to wear a high heel, but the toe area is pretty tight and didn't loosen up with wear. I wore the shoes to work yesterday and still have blisters on the bottoms of both feet (around the balls of my feet and the sides of my toe). I'm hoping they'll eventually loosen up. Everything else felt right except the tightness around the front tip of the shoe.

Liked the look of the shoe but it was just a tad too tight in the toes. Felt fine at first but wearing the shoes for several hours got a bit uncomfortable. Perhaps I'm just too accustomed to wearing flats, and I do have really big toes.

Sofft not for me - I usually wear a 9W. Even in the wide width, my toes were pinched and squished down into this shoe. It was too small, but I don't think going up a size would have helped. I have to say that after trying a few of this brand, it's not for me.

Love these shoes!
I finally found a pair of heels that look great and feel wonderful. Wore them to my daughters graduation, lots of standing and walking and not a pinch, blister, or aching arch. I actually forgot I was in heels! The dark brown patent is beautiful. Almost sparkles in the sun. Will try another pair of Sofft!

 |  | I just wanted to say that I'm most impressed with your company and your customer service. I received my original order yesterday. I had a problem where the wrong shoe was shipped to me. I called yesterday evening and got a very courteous customer service rep. She resolved my problem. I must say, very quickly. When I came home from work this evening, there at my doorstep was my correct pair of shoes from Zappos. I couldn't have been more shocked. I'm pleased to say that I love my new shoes. I will definitely buy shoes from your company again. You have a great selection, policy, etc. Above all, I appreciate how quickly this has been handled.
