Reviewer: from Mt. Washington, KY
Overall:3 stars   Comfort:2 stars   Look:4 stars
Shoe Size: Felt true to size
Shoe Width: Felt narrower than marked
Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support

Though I really like the look of this shoe because it looks sharp with suits and business attire, the fit is less than desirable. The heel portion is too "long" and I have had to add heel grippers. The top portion is too narrow, leaving your toes feeling squished.

These are a very nice shoe to wear with pants. The heel provides just enough height and stability.

Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support

Slightly uncomfortable in the toes - I wear a size 12 shoe and normally have a very hard time finding shoes that actually fit length wise. These shoes did fit lengthwise but they were tight in the toes - my toes were being rubbed from the top which hurt really bad after a while (could be due to misshapen toes). Hopefully some more breaking in (and using moleskin) will help. The back rubs too but I have a really narrow heel so that may be the reason for that. Other than those issues, the shoe is comfortable and very cute!

This shoe has some sophistication. Some may think it looks like an 'old lady' shoe, but it is a classic. Love the shape of the heel and detail at the vamp. Great with dress slacks and professional dress. Only drawback for me is that it is not leather. I still love it and it is comfortable

Other shoes recommended by reviewer: None at this time.

Professional Comfort - The show looks terrific although I would go up one width size. The toe area feels a little narrow. Other than that one thing, I am thrilled with them. They look terrific with my office attire and the heel is just the right height.

Does not “caress” right away - This is a very inexpensive, but attractive shoe. It does not caress your foot right away - needs to be broken in. Felt tight at first, but overall was the best fitting of the shoes I had ordered. I have worn them twice so far for a good length of time. Once broken in, they are a nice feeling shoe. They look very neat with both skirts and dress pants.

Gorgeous day and evening shoe - Due to the insole cushion it felt smaller and tighter. Beautiful shoe elegant and classic.

On my first day of wear by hour 8 of being on my feet all day, my feet were killing me ... suppose I anticipated more initial comfort from Hush Puppies. The look is classic though and will definitely keep wearing in hopes of breaking them in...

These shoes are very narrow all the way and I have the wide shoe so those who have wide feet should stay away from this shoe. It's beautiful but I can't wear them.

Caress-me-not! I was very disappointed in this shoe, given the Hush Puppies reputation. These shoes were very stiff and hurt my toes. However, they are dressy and stylish, and would look nice with slacks or a skirt, but not for the amount of pain they inflict! I ordered 5 pairs of shoes in this same shipment, all from different brands, and ordered my usual size. I tried them on late in the day like you are supposed to, and they all fit differently, so I wouldn't order the next size bigger either.

Very uncomfortable - I have a narrow foot and bought these in medium width. Even so, they pinch my toes so much that I have to use corn pads when I wear them. I will not buy any more plastic shoes; leather has much more give.

Great Little Black Shoe - I love the look of this shoe, it is classic and has just enough of a heel. If the toe area had just a touch more room, I would be happier. The arch support is moderate and not too much of an issue - usually I suffer if there isn't an adequate amount of arch support. I will wear them and enjoy them.

Other shoes recommended by reviewer: I wish Caressa still offered fine dress shoes - they were very comfortable.

Not as comfortable as it looks - This shoe was tight and squished my toes together in the front. It looks cute, but not very comfortable, wearing hose helps.

I like the look of these shoes but... I got these shoes to wear to a wedding but they were very tight in the toe area and I am sending them back. I'm not surprised at all, I've always had a hard time finding shoes that fit my feet well.

Cute, but... I tried two pairs of these shoes, but neither fit. A 10 was too short and an 11 was too long and of course they don't have a 10.5. Oh well, they are still cute shoes!

Very comfortable, classy shoe - This purchase was actually a re-purchase. I literally wore out the first pair I had been given; how comfortable and professional yet classy they look and feel. I highly recommend this shoe and I highly recommend the Zappos site.

Hush Puppies - I like this shoe. It is fairly comfortable and I wear them all day. The heel tends to slip a bit - so I am not sure if the size is too big or the heel just isn't narrow enough. I like the heel height and the shoe is nicer than a plain pump.

A Good Basic Black Shoe - They're not going to change your life, but this is a decent pair of basic black shoes. They're versatile with a wide heel that won't have you twisting your ankle with every other step. You wouldn't want them to be your only pair of black shoes but sometimes they're just the thing you need. The heel shape is cute and along with the ribbon and button trim gives them a bit more panache than an ordinary pump, but just a bit more. They are a bit dull. Comfort wise, they're fine, but only just. They are certainly not the most uncomfortable shoe I've tried on, but they are the least comfortable shoe I'd actually purchase. They're fine for several hours but I wouldn't want to wear them all day. I have another pair of Hush Puppies Soft Style shoes which are much more comfortable.

Great shoes - perfect for work with either slacks or dresses. Very comfortable to walk in. I travel quite a bit in my work and these are great if I have to run/fast walk to my next flight, they slip off/on quickly when going through security, they are comfortable, and they look great with either slacks or suits.

They run large... I have size 9 1/2 (often Wide), ordered them in this size and they were way too big. I have to return them, but like the look. I will try to order smaller size, but not sure if it is the position of the heel or its height, but the foot kind of felt funny when I stepped in the shoe (like you are in 3 inch heels...).

Odd fitting shoes - This shoe fits very tight across the top of the foot but is wide in the heel... so it pinches in one place and almost "slips" in another.

I have to say. I am truly amazed and thrilled with my most recent experience with Zappos. I ordered 2 pairs of shoes last night around 9, and received them at my office before noon the next day!!! I needed them by Friday, so I ordered 2 day shipping, and was HOPEFUL that I'd get them by Thursday, but I never dreamed I would get them barely 12 hours later. I work for a large retail organization, and I can honestly say, your efficiency and customer service are light years ahead of us. Thank you, thank you! I am so impressed and have been telling everyone around me about my story!
