These shoes caused bleeding blisters on the back of my heel so painful I ended up walking around the office in my socks by the end of the day. Its 2 weeks later and I\'m still trying to heal up.\r\nThis is my 2nd and last attempt at these shoes.

Comfy & cute shoe. I tried on my daughter's pair of these shoes & they fit so well I ordered a pair for myself. I normally wear a wide width, but these B width shoes run wide, so they fit fine. If you need a D width, they will probably be too narrow for you. Otherwise, they're great for walking or hiking & look great for an everyday summer shoe.

I usually wear a 7.5 or 8 and ordered this in a 7.5. Fit great, slip slightly on the heel, but I also have a very narrow foot. Wore these golfing in hot conditions and for the most part they worked out well. Had a small blister on my heels the next day, but they got a workout on the golf course. Still, overall happy with the shoe. Very cute!

These shoes are really comfortable right out of the box. At first I was worried my heel would slip, but after the first day, that wasn't a problem. Also, one of my feet is almost a half size smaller than the other. Adjusting the strap a bit was all I needed to make the fit perfect on that foot too! The only downside is that my feet get a little hot in them (since I bought them to wear during summer). It's not enough to keep me from wearing them most of the time anyway. The inside surface is nice and comfortable. A cute shoe is a good find. I will look for more Privo shoes.

Super comfy and very cute. I get lots of compliments. After a foot injury, I needed an attractive shoe with padding and support that I could wear to work. These are great!

Whoops... I have several pairs of Privo shoes from Zappos, and love them. They are my \'go to\' shoes for errands, etc. I ordered \'Acacia\' from another company, and the fit is so radically different from my other Privos, that I hope their return policy is as good as Zappos. The insert is high in the heel with no arch support, and It\'s hard to believe that they\'re from the same company. They look good, but don\'t fit at all. Zappos, I apologize for straying from you.

This is my third pair of Privo’s. I have the Privo Acacia in navy. I just received another pair of Privo’s in brown. They are so comfortable. They also last forever. They never seem to wear out. The longer I wear them the more comfortable. Thank you Privo Clarks. I also have to say that Zappos service is the best. I order shoes today and they are at my door tomorrow. Sometimes in the late morning. Keep up the good work.

These shoes are comfortable for the most part, but not good for walking more than an hour or two...they just don't provide much support.

Love this shoe. It is very comfortable and very cute. I ordered a half size smaller than my usual size, and they fit well. I find most Privos are a half-size too big if I order my regular size. I just bought the black version of Acacia!

The heel on this shoe is very wide and would not stay on when I walked a few steps, so I am returning it. I like the style of the shoe though and it feels sturdy enough to be a good walking shoe.

These shoes are absolutely Fantastic. They are so comfortable... just like wearing slippers all day. These are perfect for me to wear as a chaperone for a group of 7th and 8th graders on their Washington DC and New York City trip because we walk for miles and miles! Plus, they are very cute... even on my size 10 feet!

Love this shoe. It is so comfortable and it fits great. I usually need a 10 1/2 shoe which is so hard to find, but this 10 fits perfectly.

This is the second pair of these shoes - I wore out the first ones! They can be adapted for orthotics if one wishes or wear with the enclosed footpads. They run just a bit large - I ordered a 9 and sometimes wear a 9 1/2. The size 9s fit perfectly. They are great to wear on a trip with a lot of walking - comfortable from the "get-go". I love these shoes!

I love these! They slip on and off easily but stay on securely. Great for the airport. They are fun looking and very comfortable. We walk everywhere and these work well for me.

Super comfortable and cute! I usually wear an 8.5, but I could tell from the style that these were on the wide side so I tried the 8. It was snug, but it was still so comfortable (Privo's have wonderful soft footbeds) that I was tempted to keep it. But after walking around the house for a day, I could tell they were going to give me blisters so I went with the 8.5. They are a tad big, but I don't see these shoes stretching much, and the fit + elastic keeps my foot secure.

Super comfortable shoes. I'm very picky about the shoes I wear because my feet start aching after a while if I don't have good support and cushioning. I love other Clarks shoes but had never tried the Privos so wasn't sure what to expect. Lives up to Clarks reputation as comfortable, well-made shoes.

The first time I saw this shoe in the Pear color I fell in love but figured it wouldn't fit since it doesn't come in a narrow width. My feet are very narrow. But since Zappos offers free shipping I figured it wouldn't hurt to try so ordered the size 7, which is my usual size--too big. Size 6.5 wasn't available so asked to be notified when it was. I was notified, I ordered and I was thrilled when this new pair fit. They're still a little bit roomy in the width but otherwise fit beautifully. The heel bed is very comfortable in this shoe and I absolutely love the style and the color. Even though I work in an office I wear them with nice slacks and get compliments on them all the time. I love this shoe and I love Zappos.

I had high hopes for the Privo Acacia because they're great looking and look like they would be comfortable too. My problem has been that the back of the shoe rips up my heel everytime I wear them. The first time it was so bad that it went beyond a blister to bleeding. I thought that my heels just need to "toughen up" so when everything had healed over I tried again, only to have the heel on the other foot blister up. To this day, three months later, they cause me discomfort to wear them. Very disappointing. I should have given up earlier and returned them, so it's partially my fault that I'm left with relatively expensive, but nice looking, shoes that I can't wear.

This shoe is wonderful. It is cute, comfortable without socks, slips off with ease but stays put when walking, and looks good with capris. I wore it on a trip and could walk all day in comfort. No blisters or having to wear band aids. I got it in brown, and am thinking about a second pair in another color.

I really like these shoes. I bought the 1/2 size smaller as recommended by the Zappos staff. They fit great. Interestingly though, I found another Privo shoe at a local store, and did not buy the smaller size, so style matters.
