Super cute. Goes with just about anything. I was worried they wouldn't be comfortable, but unlike other "slippers" these really fit well. I've gotten lots of compliments! My first pair of Privo's and I'm sold on this brand.

Love these shoes. Took the advice of previous buyers and bought a half size smaller than I normally wear. They fit perfectly. There are a bit wider than your average shoe so if you have narrow feet this might be a problem.

This shoe is wonderful. I bought it about two days before I went to Italy with my students. We walked about 7 miles a day for 8 days and it was wonderful. It does seem a little bigger than the size which worked great for me because my feet swelled on the plane. Back home, it\'s a little loose and if I walk a lot, I get a little blister. I\'ll keep them (I bought two pairs) for my next overseas trip. Comfortable and wonderful!

Great shoe! One of the most comfortable slip ons I\'ve purchased. I ordered a half size smaller than I usually wear after reading some reviews, but wonder if ordering a full size down would have been better. These are great, but do tend to slip off the foot when walking for long periods of time. I wore these to a music festival where we stood for two straight days-no blisters and no sore arches. The shoe is a little wide in the center-all factors that may be remedied by ordering a size down.

I really like this shoe, once I got the right size! I had to order a full size smaller than what I usually wear. They really run large. But with Zappos\' great return policy, it was easy to finally get the right size. These are nice for summer as they are light weight and the syle is cute.

This is my second pair of Privo shoes. I bought them because the first pair were so great. They are super comfortable. They do seem to run slightly large but I still love them.

I really like this shoe. I also had trouble with the sizing, though. I usually wear a 9 or 9 1\/2, but I ended up with an 8 1\/2, which fits just fine. I don\'t really understand Privo\'s sizing, because I have other styles of their shoes and they tend to run small. But regardless, these are really cute and comfortable, and Zappos handled my return and re-shipment quickly and flawlessly! When I returned the first pair, I ordered the replacements and had them the very next day. Can\'t beat that!

Good looking shoe. I found it to run at least 1\/2 size larger than described. I did have some problem with it creating a sore spot at the edge of the vamp for a while.

Shoes run a half size big. They are comfy but if you have a high instep, as I do, they will bow out a bit as you walk. They work well with dresses or shorts, which is why I like them so.

I ordered these shoes in two colors because they were so attractive, and I know the quality of Privo shoes. Unfortunately, there is stitching inside the shoe to hold the little strap, and this stitching is very scratchy on each side of the foot. I knew I would have blisters within minutes.

Love this shoe! I wear a 10 wide so if a shoe is not available in a wide width. I order a 10.5 and it fit well and easy to walk in! Super cute with skirts and bermuda shorts.

Shoes are great, very comfortable and true to their size. They arrived in lightening speed in time for my trip to Hawaii where I wore them all the time.

Purchased for Mexico for casual resort wear and pool side wear. They were great. Allow some break-in time to soften the leather upper. I looked fab!

These shoes are super cute, but every time I wear them, I fall. They are just too high for me (a 6-foot tall woman). I've already retired them to the back of my closet after wearing them 3 times and falling 3 times.
