Beautiful shoe and comfortable, but Sofft's closed shoes seem to fit differently depending on the style. This one feels about a 1/2 size too big and I'm afraid it will flop and rub at the heel. I wear an 11W and there is no 10 1/2 so I'm out of luck. It really is a beautiful shoe and I almost kept it anyway, but I'm at the point where they have to be just right, right out the box or they go back. Comfort and fit are my watchwords as I close in on 50!

Very comfortable and cute - I bought this as a comfortable shoe while being on my feet. The cushioning is great, a lot at the toe where you need it, and also good arch support. It's also pretty nice looking – good quality. The toe part doesn't go too far up my foot, which is important since I have small feet. No rough edges on the shoe either. All in all, wonderful. I'd give it 5 stars, but I still don't really love the style, it's not really me, but it works, other people say they like it, and it's very comfortable.

Comfortable heels! I've been a SOFFT shoe wearer for a while now. They're the most comfortable brand that I can find when I want to wear heels. These Vallery pumps are very classic looking, and I think they wear equally well with trousers and skirts. I wear a wide (C) shoe, and the SOFFT wide fits perfectly. The cushioning means I can wear them all day, even when I have to walk a lot. I work on a university campus and often have to walk 15-20 minutes between buildings. These shoes don't hurt me at all.

My feet are saying, "Ahhhhh!" I needed a pair of nice-looking black pumps that could be worn with either pantsuits or dresses. I've probably had 40 pair of black pumps in my lifetime that were meant to fill this role. Usually if they were comfortable, it was because they were ugly as sin and if they were good looking, it was because they were agony to wear. I finally have struck gold with these shoes! They are both stylish and comfortable. I had seen Sofft in stores and always wondered if they lived up to their name, now I know they do! I'll be purchasing more of this brand in the future! One note, I wear an 8... always an 8, but I had to reorder these in an 8 1/2.

Fit wrong - This is the first pair of Sofft I've tried. I am a perfect 7.5 in almost every brand. This shoe was just a touch too tight across the top of the vamp, but the heel was loose and slippy. Too bad, the shoe was super cute and the footbed was well padded.

Very comfortable - I ordered these in 2 colors. The brown color looks like old lady shoes but the fire sky is very cute. It's kind of strange that the color would make such a huge difference but the texture also looks different. Very, very comfortable. I'll keep the fire sky.

Good for walking, just mind your toes - I ordered these as a good casual-but-nice shoe for walking around in New York City. The soles are nice and cushy; the only problem is that the rounded toes make them feel a bit shorter so my toes hit the end. Because I have narrow heels, I am sticking with the 8, but if you don't have my kind of problem with heel slippage, I recommend going up a half size.

Great Comfort - I have a very hard time finding comfortable shoes. I wear a 7.5 wide, and this fit perfectly.

Love the shoe... Classic look, comfortable shoe. I wore it all day while training a class without a break in period and my feet were not sore at the end of the day. I received several compliments on this classic.

Sofft Vallery - A beautiful shoe - well made, very solid construction, and the sole and heel surface are rubber so that when you walk on a solid surface they do not make noise. I work in a hospital and noise reduction is an important part of our service.

The best shoe ever. I love converse. I've been wearing them since I was about 11 and I love them. There so simple and versatile. You can wear them with anything and they last forever.

They rock! Converse are the only shoe I will ever wear. No reason to wear anything else. If it's too dressy for your Converse, you don't need to go.

Historically Significant! I've been wearing Converse for 20 years now, and I'm not the first generation to swear by them... All Stars are the finest sneaker I've found, and I've tried a lot. As a previous reviewer said, if you can't wear them where you're going, don't go. My only wish is that someone online would carry the hemp low top. Canvas and coated denim are great, but hemp is by far more durable. (Hemp can be ordered from Converse directly with SKU #1G236 until Zappos carries them!)

AWESOME! These shoes are the best! Way back, I had a pair of Bugs Bunny hi-top Converse which I wore to their limit. Then a couple years later, I got a pair of One Stars, but they were stolen! After that, I got another pair of One Stars, and 4 years later I'm back with the classics! Converse Rocks My Socks Off!

Converse Maverick. Does anyone remember the old school "Converse Maverick"? They looked similar to the "Dr. J"'s except it had velcro strap across the top of the tongue. They look sweet! If anyone has information on the Maverick, please email me. Thanks! Marc

Neat shoes! These shoes feel really flat, so if you don't like flat shoes then you won't like these. The only thing is that they make your feet look a bit long...

I love these shoes. Not only are these shoes classic and comfortable but I feel they are part of the uniform of cool. There's no one I know that hasn't owned at least one pair of these shoes and hasn't had something good to say about them. Thank you Coverse All*Star and thank you Chuck Taylor.
