They hurt!
These shoes are really cute, but they really hurt your feet. I have been trying to break them in, but it has not been easy. They are not supple in any way, so they give you blisters on your heels. They are true to size and do not slip which is a plus. But breaking them in has been a nightmare!

I have to agree with most of the other reviews. These are very cute and "will" be very comfortable. Despite taking precautions, having read about the heel causing blisters, these took a good bite out of the back of my right ankle. It has finally healed and I plan to put a band-aid over that spot for awhile.
Despite that, I must say, these are VERY comfortable and exactly what I was looking for in terms of form and function. I plan to wear these while traveling, both on the plane and walking around. They look adorable with a sundress which is super important since that's pretty much all I'm packing for an upcoming trip to Greece & Italy.
They're very lightweight, breathe well and have good support. I got them in the white/green melon color and they're much more neutral than they look in the picture. When they're on you really can't tell there is any green at all. They might be a tiny bit big, but the strap across the top keeps them securely on without rubbing ay all. I checked "True to size" because I don't think they are a whole half size large, had I gotten a half size smaller they would be too small. I think I will actually be very happy with the size at the end of the day, especially when flying, when my feet tend to be a little swollen.
So, overall I love them, just a little first day problem. All the pros of these shoes hugely outweigh that one negative.

Having a foot with a newly healed broken bone, a terrible bunion and a hammer toe and working on my feet - I'm thrilled to find a shoe this comfortable and flexible. Great at work and home too - even yard work. Adjustable velcro closure allows for swelling during day and easy on/off.

Cool Comfy and Cute -
These are my first pair of J-41's. They are sporty yet cute and office wearable. :) As a working student, they are exactly what I was looking for in shoes.
I did find when I wore these shoes; I needed to wear bandaids on the back of my feet for the first few weeks to prevent the rubbing problem from happening. Otherwise, I love these shoes!!

J-41 Sierra -
I love the look of the Sierra - great with jeans, capris, and casual skirts. It's a stretchy shoe, however, and I found my usual size, 8.5, to be too big and went with an 8 instead, which is perfect (I'm normally an 8.5 to a 9). It's comfortable and flexible, and I'm hoping they hold up well.

LOVE this shoe! Unlike most J-41s, no break in period. I usually have trouble with the straps across the widest part of the foot, but this is a dream. Got the cream color, which looks great with shorts, capris, even skirts. And it's comfy enough for long walks.

Great Vegan Shoe -
It is really hard to find a vegan shoe that is stylish and comfortable. I wanted a shoe like this, but all I could find were leather. When I saw this shoe, it was exactly what I had been looking for. I usually do not pay this much for shoes, but after wearing these shoes, they are worth the price. The fit is comfortable and true to size. The only problem is that the straps which have velcro can get caught on your hosiery. I am hoping for more vegan shoes! Go Vegans!

Getting used to them...
These shoes KILLED on my heels for a couple of weeks, but are finally breaking in. I still don't feel comfortable walking more than a mile in them, so I wouldn't wear them if I was going to be on my feet all day, but they are comfy and great for a day at the office. I do get lots of compliments on them!

J-41's Sierra -
Great shoe! It has everything; comfort, looks, style, walkability.
After trying out the Sierra, I bought two more pair of J-41s. I'm worth it!

I want to love these shoes...
...But I'm having trouble loving them. They look great. When I wear them with socks, they feel great. If I wear them without socks (which is really what I bought them for), they pull on the skin behind my ankle, and cause blistering and cutting. But only on my left foot! These shoes are 90% perfect, but I may have to send them back...

Very comfy & cute vegan shoe -
I bought this in the white/melon color and it is the greatest shoe! It is extremely comfortable, and lets my foot spread out - I hate cramped feet. It is cute like a little ballerina flat but stays on very securely due to the little velcro strap across the top. The insole is super thick and padded, so my feet are feeling very comfy. Love this vegan shoe! Perfect with pants, shorts, skirts.

Comfortable shoe, no socks needed -
This is a great shoe for the summertime. Comfortable from the beginning, no break in time at all. Walked all day in it and did find that the top of the shoe was rubbing against the top of my toes. But otherwise great.

Love 'em -
These are even cuter than I thought they'd be! Things I love: great neutral color (I got the stone/moss), look is sporty so it goes great with capris and shorts or with casual jeans or pants, inside wipes clean and doesn't get funky (like some fabric insoles), great grippy sole, they slip on and off quite easily. The only thing that initially bothered me is that they do ride up a bit on the heels (which broke in after a few wears) and the top cuts across the joint of my big toe… rubs it a bit, but it's loosening up, too. Overall, they're a great shoe and I'd buy 'em again!

Wedding Photographer Tested -
I bought these shoes to wear at an upcoming wedding I was shooting. So comfort meets style was what I was aiming for with this purchase. J-41 nailed the style part. And I love the breathy mesh. But alas they were not as comfy as I had hoped. The heels do rub though buying some heel inserts solved the problem for me. The worst was the rubbing along that large bone above the big toe where the shoe opening sits. I do have wide feet so that’s probably why. And I also found them to be a bit sticky on the insole. Also of note they made a slight farting sound at first. I love and possibly adore the look of these shoes and having worn them in now for about a month they are okay.

Gave me sores on my heels -
I was SO excited about these shoes and wore them sockless (as you should) from 6 am to 3 pm on a trip from NY to the Dominican Republic. I had to remove them as soon as we arrived at our hotel because they gave me sores on both heels. I haven't worn them since but a week later I still have the sores. It's such a shame because they were SO comfortable aside from the heel rubbing. Very airy and comfortable. I loved that when I wore them with pants, they looked like ballet flats. Oh well. I'll be returning them because I don't have the stamina to get my heels used to the pain.

Love my first pair of J-41's!
I saw a pair of J-41's in a magazine I was reading and thought they were so cute. I went to Zappos to look at them and realized that I liked the Sierras even better (and they got better reviews for being more comfortable). I have a real problem wearing shoes without socks because my heel always gets a blister. After wearing these I started to get that little sore spot that usually turns into a bad sore, but it never materialized. Now, my heel doesn't get sore at all and I've been wearing them about 2 1/2 weeks. I get compliments on them wherever I go. I love that they are cute yet functional. I wear them just about every day in my role as a stay at home mom. They are the perfect "out and about" shoes.

J-41 Sierra -
I've had these shoes almost 3 weeks- I think they're just breaking in. They hurt my heels immediately and for several days after that. I think they are good shoes to throw on and go out. They'll work out fine for the summer.

Thank you so much, that really made my day. I actually closed my account with another retailer today because they got me soooo upset. So thanks again, this is my 1st purchase and I already love Zappos! Sincerely, Tanya P. |  | ~ Tanya P., September 22 2008
