Very average and extremely overpriced - Given the fact that I spend the entire day on my feet I was really looking forward to trying on Taryn Rose after reading so many positive reviews. Well, when I finally got them I found that the shoes are very average looking, not comfortable for a 9 hour shift and absolutely not worth $$$$. I'd rather buy Borne and spend the rest $$$ on Kooba. I do have to comment on Zappos excellent customer service!

A good looking and comfortable shoe, with great overall foot and arch support. Perfect walking shoe to take on vacation.

I bought this shoe in navy several years ago and loved it so I jumped on the offer to have the brown.

All year round, Aretha\'s are my go-to shoes because I can stay comfortable in them all day. I have them in brown and black.

This is the second pair of Arethas I have returned. I usually wear a size 6 so I ordered these initially in a 6.5 - too big. I just received the size 6 and they are still too big so they are going back. Zappos makes shopping/returns a great experience! Keep up the great service!

After ordering this shoe 3X in 3 different sizes I think I finally have the correct size - a half size smaller than my usual size. I usually order a half size larger in Taryn Rose but this particular size fits best a half size smaller and even then is still a bit on the roomy side. I'm still not sure if I will be keeping them. They are very comfortable and very light. I like them as an alternative to the Kelsey style - the higher wedge seems to add more support. They also look a bit more stylish.

These shoes are unique..soft and yet supports the foot. The sole is substantial and comfortable. These are high on the price scale but wear like iron, don\'t lose their shape and feel like house slippers all day. They are a bargain when you can wear them for years without stretching. I have several pair because they work for almost any occasion. I buy a size larger.\r\nCombine the perfect shoe with Zappos perfect service and you can\'t lose!

Astonishing service from Zappo! I ordered the Taryn Rose Aretha last night around 10 pm. They arrived this morning by 11 am! They are absolutely heavenly! Fit perfectly and true to size (European 39). I had difficulty taking them off and saving them for my trip to Vienna this fall. These are the Platonic ideal of shoes--the ones of which all others are a mere reflection. And they look gorgeous on--elegant as only essential comfort should be. Thanks Zappo. No other shoes than Taryn Rose for me from now on! The price is depressing, but the value is worth it.

Walking on clouds - Wore this shoe into the city and walked and walked and walked they were just so comfortable. The sizing information given me by other reviewers and Zappos was on the money. They said get a half size larger then your regular size and that was correct. I love my new Arethas from Taryn Rose.

Great Traveling Shoe! I just returned from a week in Paris. I was looking for the perfect travel shoe for all of the walking in museums, in the parks, around the monuments. I ordered and returned the Keir and the Lizzie by Taryn Rose. I finally decided upon the Aretha and it was a great choice. Very comfortable. I received the shoes two days before I left so they were not broken in. I wore them a lot with no blisters at all. My feet only hurt from standing and walking all day but not from the shoes. I did need a half size larger (ordered my usual size previously and returned it). My only complaint about this shoe is that it is not as stylish as I would like, my husband calls them "grandma shoes". I also brought along Taryn Rose's Daelyn in black as my dress shoe and also the Kensey ballet wedge in red (I wish that Zappos would carry these - so cute!) which I did not buy from Zappos. Taryn Rose took care of my feet in Paris, kept them well dressed and comfortable! I only wish that Zappos would carry more Taryn rose in the SMALL sizes - 4.5 please!
