Don't leap in them. These are great shoes for many reasons. They're comfy right out of the box and you don't have to break them in. But they are NOT good for walking much further than a half a mile as there really isn't much arch support. People did mention to me that they were "cute shoes."

I really like the look of this shoe. It's sporty and cute. The comfort is what I would expect from a Privo shoe. But I agree with others, that the biggest drawback of this shoe is the width. It's just a bit too wide. It's something I could live with, but I know I can do better.

Leap for a different shoe -
I wear an 8 and this shoe was way too big. It's quite flimsy for the price. Big disappointment.

I have ordered several pairs of Privo shoes because I like the casual styles. However, the fit is erratic. I ordered these in a 9 (I wear a 10N). They were too short. I exchanged them for a 9.5. They were huge! I have to give up.

Cute and comfy -
I found this shoe to be very cute and unique looking, comfortable and durable.
Additional Brand Information
We believe comfort frees the spirit. We believe style is a blend of science and art. We believe lightness is its own reward. And we believe slipping on a pair of shoes should do what ours always will - lift you up. Privo is a new kind of casual shoe. Beautifully designed with the comfort of Soleassage inside, Privo lets you step lively. Instead of either or, you get both - the look and the feel you want.
If you’ve ever laughed until it hurt, listened to your heart, passed on the mini-van, slept in, lied about your age, found your groove, read the ending first, gone outside the lines or bought a one way ticket, then Privo is for you.
Youthful in feeling, athletic in inspiration, Privo combines style, comfort and versatility. Special features such as our patented Soleassage™ textured footbed make Privo a joy to wear. The perfect sneaker alternative, Privo pairs well with just about everything.

Look More Comfortable Than They Are -
These shoes look like they will be really comfy, but sadly they are not. There is no support of any kind, for the price you pay you would like to have an actual shoe on your feet. Also the front part cuts in to the top of my foot and the back rubs in a painful way. I tried both a 9 1/2 and a 10, and neither was right.

Comfy, BUT -
Nice looking shoe, but definitely not true to size. I ordered a full size smaller and it was still too big and wide. Since it’s for casual wear it works, but definitely would order a full size and a half smaller.

Privo Leap -
Privo has recently become my favorite brand of shoe. These are not as comfortable as the other two pairs that I have, but are still more comfortable than most other shoes. People do need to realize that the shoes tend to run large so order a 1/2 size smaller than you normally wear unless your foot is particularly wide.
I just want to say that Zappos will be the only online shoe store for me! These shoes were $4.00 cheaper than at a competitors store and your free shipping in both directions beats everyone else! I ordered these on Monday morning and they arrived on Tuesday and it didn't cost me a penny for shipping!

Great shoe for the price -
These shoes are great, no problems. I've worn them for lots of long walking and traveling. They are great, very breathable. The arch support isn't so great, but they are too cute to care!

Runs big - penny on the back is a little cheesy -
I ordered these but just returned them. They are pretty cute but I couldn't get over the cheesy little penny on the back. I ordered the black and the white/silver piping design was a little too athletic looking for how I would prefer to wear them. They are definitely at least a half size bigger than standard.

Privo Leap -
Very comfy shoe so I didn't need a break-in period, but could use more padding for the ball of the foot. Really liked how my feet could breathe and not get sweaty. Yes, you must order 1/2 size smaller for a good fit!
Love this shoe. I was looking for a shoe that didn’t look like a sneaker and this was just perfect.

Review of Privo's Leap -
This shoe is cute and comfortable but has no arch support. The sole is fabric and therefore not as supportive as some of the other Privo shoes. I bought them for a trip to Europe but instead ended up with the Privo Leslie, which has much better arch support.

Good to Go -
Rarely do I find a shoe that is good to go right out of the box. No breaking in period required. They are adorable & comfy. I have them in 2 colors. Order a 1/2 size smaller than you normally wear.

Love it -
I bought my first pair - the white ones - at a Clarks store. I ended up loving them so much; I came to Zappos to buy 'em in any other colors available. Unfortunately, they only come in black and white... I want more!
They are super-comfy for such a flat shoe. I rarely wear shoes without some sort of sock, but these have been just fine. Like that they breathe very well.
Super sporty-cute, too.
They run a little large... I've tended to wear 8.5 or 9. Since having my baby, I lean more to a 9. However, in these, 8.5 are the size for me.

Feels like you're barefoot -
Shoe is wide and much bigger than true size. It feels like you are wearing slippers when you have it on. If you walk a lot it feels like you are barefoot- does not give a lot of padded comfort.
