Right out of the box these shoes are comfortable. I was so glad when I clicked on the size & there they had my size available. I hurried to place my order for the orange pair. These shoes looks fabulous on my feet, comfortable & stylish. I would buy more if they would bring this slide back in more colors. A great looking shoe & for a good cause---what more can a girl ask for?? Please bring these back in more colors & sizes real soon.My mom is dying to get her hands on them.

A cool, fun pair of slides. Creamy soft leather. Nice rich color. They will look great with jeans, slacks, and casual skirts. They are dramatic so I see them fit perfectly with pants. Well-made. What can I say? So glad to not only get great shoes but also help out artisans.

If you are tired of brown and black shoes, these are the shoes to get then. I love the orange, although they are a much brighter orange color in the picture than in person, which I wouldn’t mind at all. Very soft and comfortable casual shoes. Go well with jeans or black casual pants. Got many compliments on them already, the orange color makes them stand out. I do recommend!

I love this shoe. I bought it in black and went back and got the brown ones. They are soft and comfortable. I have some arthritis in my feet and these shoes offer support and comfort and look good as well. Don't change the style!

These shoes are wonderful. Originally, they are a little stiff; but, after wearing them a couple of times, a perfect fit. Extremely comfortable, awesome color, with nice detailing.

Superior comfort for uncomfortable feet. I have a hard time finding any shoes that are completely comfortable, that is, until I got these for Christmas! I love how versatile they are because I can wear them with jeans and dress slacks and skirts. They have the comfort of a slipper, but still great support. Highly recommend!

I own both the brown and the black pairs. I love these shoes! They are so comfortable. I wish they came in many more colors, I would probably own them too. They seem to adjust to the shape of my feet. I love them.

I will be very disappointed if you discontinue this shoe. This has given me the best comfort of any shoe I have purchased in the past. Please continue to provide this shoe for those of us that this works for our feet issues. I have worn this shoe for about 3 years now and they hold up well when you wear them every day as I do. Thank you for caring to ask about this shoe.

These are the best shoes I have ever owned. I don't think they are making them anymore and that is too bad. Bought up as many extras as I could find, though, and Zappos service was fast and efficient.

I have been waiting for these to get restocked in orange and finally I got the email from Zappos saying they had my size, which is a great service. \r\n\r\nI love these shoes; the leather isn\'t as soft as the other Soul of Africa shoes I have but they are still very nice (more support). And they are not as roomy as my other pair of SOA shoes but they still fit fine, I am glad I went up a half size. These shoes will get tons of wear.

SEXI, Sexy, and more Sexee! Man, I purchased this bootie for a wedding reception, and people couldn't stop looking @ me or the boot. Promiscuous Delight is an understatement. They are down right seductive. I recommend this bootie with a black sweater dress and tights.
