I really love this shoe. I bought Size 7, and found it too big! I went back to purchase the Size 6, and there are no more! Please supply more shoes!

These are fabulous shoes. A beautiful soft leather that molds wonderfully to your foot. I highly recommend them.

I love this shoe for its "soul." It looks handmade, and is very soft. I only wear it for dressy, and not for real walking, but it is a fun shoe that is quite distinctive, unlike the ubiquitous "ballet flat," which you would wear the way you wear this shoe. I have had mine for 2 years, and they have held up well, despite the handmade appearance.

Wow! These are great shoes - they look so cool (although not quite as sharp of lines as in the picture), and they are super comfortable. I wore them all day the first time I wore them and had no problems. They didn't rub anywhere, they weren't too tight across my instep, they were really great. I wouldn't recommend them for those looking for any sort of SUPPORT, as the soles are flat leather, but other than that they were gorgeous. I only wish they came in other, more funky colors. They'd be great in purple, or orange, red, acid green or yellow... I'd own them in multiples if they did! The only REALLY sad part is that they only come in whole sizes, though. Since I wear a pretty solid 9 1/2, I ordered both a 9 and a 10, kept the 9, but my boss (who usually wears 8 1/2 or 9) thought the 9s were too small.

Great looking shoe-very "artsy." Feels like a slipper. Full size larger than marked. Usually wear size 8, but had to purchase the 7. Fits great and I love the gray color.

Additional Brand Information

An ancient Chinese proverb wisely states, “Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.” Thanks to an initiative established by Lance Clark, sixth generation of the family behind the footwear company of the same name, this proverb is being put into action by Soul of Africa to help South African villagers affected by AIDS to help themselves.

Working with communities in the informal settlements around Durban in KwaZulu Natal, where the AIDS infection is highest, Clark and a handful of leading South African business people in the footwear industry have since been sharing their shoemaking expertise to teach local villagers how to make this simple yet comfortable hand sewn product for the Soul of Africa line.

Soul of Africa shoes are made by hand using supple leather and quality materials to create footwear that is flexible, durable, and soft. Incredibly comfortable, Soul of Africa shoes are simple, sleek, and stylish as well!

For every pair of Soul of Africa shoes sold, Clarks will donate all profits to the care and support of South African children orphaned due to AIDS. Additionally, each pair sold helps to provide an ongoing livelihood for the individuals who stitch the shoes. Since 2004, Soul of Africa has raised well over $1,000,000 since its beginnings.

Great shoe for a great cause - I was initially drawn to these shoes because of the charity angle, and I purchased this pair for a good everyday dress up or dress down shoe - and I love them! I had to reorder a size smaller, though, when my normal size 7 was too big. I've found that they stretch out a bit, so a 6 is feeling perfect after a few wears.
