Shoe Size: Felt a half size smaller than marked Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support Shoe Width: Felt narrower than marked
I wear between a 7.5 and 8 in Taryn Rose, Cole Haan and Stuart Weitzman, 7.5 in flats, boots and leather shoes, 8 in high heels and patent leather shoes. I have a slightly wide foot, and ordered the 8 in black patent. It was much too tight in the toe box and around the sides of my foot and a little short on length. This is a tricky shoe for wide feet. Don't be afraid to buy a half size up; you're feet need to be able to pronate, especially if you buy this in patent leather. I am not willing to spend additional time trying to break in the stiffness, plus they seem too short and feet do swell throughout the day, so I will need a shoe to accommodate. I am returning for a size 8.5 and if it's too large I will put a cushion insert and heel grips in the shoe. On the upside, Zappos provided excellent customer service, fast next day shipping and shoes were exquisitely crafted with full coverage of the foot (no toe cleavage).

Worth every penny!! I have lots of problems with my feet (fallen arches, heel spurs). These do the trick to be pain free. I like the way it makes my legs look. Have them in nappa black leather is very soft. Order them 1/2 size larger.

Love this shoe! I do a lot of walking during the workday and these shoes are as comfortable as promised. The leather is soft and the moment I took the shoes out of the box I was impressed with their quality - even the soles are beautiful! After wearing these shoes I am inclined to buy more from Taryn Rose in the future.

Great shoe, especially considering the heel height - I ordered this shoe a half size up, and the shoe is comfortable, although I wonder if my regular size might not have been better. I am thinking of putting a pad in. Apart from that, the shoe is spectacular. I ordered the tortoise brown, and it is lovely. The heel is high but not difficult. I love the way the shoe looks; there is a fine depth to the color of the leather. I am proud to wear them.

Beautiful - Very nice pair of shoes and worth the splurge. I purchased the brown/tortoise pair and get compliments every time I wear them. Comfortable yet stylish and perfect for fall.

About Taryn Rose

In 1998, the footwear industry changed forever with the arrival of Taryn Rose International, a line of luxury shoes as fashionable as they are functional. Founded by a young orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Taryn Rose, the brand struck a chord with women desiring to be well dressed while having a sense of well being and very quickly established a dedicated following.

Hand-sewn in Italy, Taryn Rose shoes are made with the finest materials and are known the world over for their style, ease and remarkable fit. Taryn Rose’s inspiration lies in the evolution of people's lives and how fashion can fuse with function in the most innovative way. Taryn Rose consistently takes on the challenge to find the next breakthrough in technology and remain on the cutting-edge of design and manufacturing methods. In 1998, Taryn Rose became the first footwear company to utilize the NASA-created Poron cushioning that gained the nickname “memory foam” for its ability to retain 95% of its cushioning after years of use. This breakthrough was followed by the patented Aqua Rose camoscio in 2006, giving customers a water-proof suede that could actually be worn on a rainy day. Every Taryn Rose shoe is designed to meet the lifestyle needs and fashion cravings of today's on-the-go individual. The recent eco-friendly offering literally helps the earth-conscious customer measure her carbon footprint. Each season, Taryn Rose continues to exceed standards and bring customers the latest and best advancements the industry has to offer.

What makes a Taryn Rose shoe different? Arch Support: Taryn Rose shoes are built on an asymmetrical last, allowing for full arch support, which increases the foot’s mobility within the shoe, decreases fatigue and protects the ankles. Breathability: Taryn Rose shoes are lined with the same final quality of leather used on the uppers, making the foot more comfortable from the inside out. It also increases breathability, because natural materials breathe in a way that synthetics cannot. Cushioning: A generous cushion of Poron® is built in to support the ball of the foot. Poron® is a foam with memory, so it literally springs back to retain its shape. Flexibility: Extra cushioning and supple materials encourage the foot to move naturally within the shoe. Lightness: Taryn Rose is constantly looking for materials to cushion the foot and provide support without adding weight. Evolutionary: Taryn Rose shoes have been designed in response to changes in the way we live. Customers lead active lives and want to be able to think on their feet. Details: Special attention is paid to the well-being of the customers and to the planet. The use of water-soluble glue is less toxic than commercial cobbler’s glues and allows the shoes to breathe and stretch naturally, decreasing tears and extending their functional life.

A little high, a little small--otherwise outstanding - If you're used to heels this high they're great; otherwise it takes a while to get used to them. Frankly, I never thought I'd ever be able to wear them... but now I can and get compliments everywhere I go... Order a half size up.

Best investment ever! These shoes are extremely comfortable. My toes hurt at first, but after 4 days of wearing them for at least 8 hours each day, no more pain, just comfort. I feel like I can run, dance, do any movements with these lovely shoes with much ease now. In addition, I can avoid the podiatrist for a little longer now. Thank you, Taryn Rose!

I love these shoes - Part of my job involves being on my feet for 8 hours delivering speeches and lectures. I've abused my feet with other pumps to the point that it's hard to wear heels for more than a couple of hours, and the next day, I wake up feeling crippled. I haven't tested these out on an 8-hour day, but so far, they've been FANTASTIC for a 4-hour day, and no crippled feeling on the day after. I love them so much that I've bought a second pair as backup.

Great Purchase! I have been looking for a sensible but attractive pair of work pumps for a couple of years. I have heard of Taryn Rose and know that her shoes are built for comfort, but I've never been particularly inspired by some of their looks, nor was I excited to pay $4-500 for a pair. When I saw these, and that they were on sale, I changed my mind quickly. I checked out the silhouette from every angle and ordered. Shoes came next day, looked exactly as they did online, and I wore them to work the day to test them out. Besides the complements I got, these shoes were super comfortable with one exception only. Because I thought I had some extra room, I threw in a couple of Petals pad as I routinely do (to me, you can never have enough padding), and by the second half of the day, I felt that the back of the shoe was starting to rub against my foot. I expect that the next time I wear them without Petals, there should be little or no rubbing. Extremely comfortable for a high heel! All in all, this black patent leather classic was worth the high investment!

Too high - I love the look but from a professional woman that is doing a lot of traveling leave these shoes at home. The were the first pair of TR shoes that gave me blisters.

Taryn Rose Fortune - A beautiful and comfortable shoe for such a high heel. I needed to return and order a half size larger in the black patent and metallic. Service was speedy and polite.

Brown Croco patent Fortune. Way too tight in the toe, and too high a heel. Also, the sides cut into my foot under my anklebone. This shoe made my foot look stumpy.

Taryn Rose Fortune - Everything other reviewers said they would be: beautiful, unique and surprisingly comfortable for very high heels. I normally don't wear heels and these hooked me in wearing heels more often. Nothing beats the silver color--spectacular. Gorgeous with neutrals and dresses up everything.

Comfort and looks great! Usually you have to choose between looks and true comfort, but not with Taryn Rose! This shoe is a classic look, very well made with all day comfort. Normally, a shoe this high would not be comfortable for a long period of time.

Amazing work shoes and great service! I am a healthcare professional and on my feet all day. These shoes are extremely comfortable, especially given the height of the heel. They are also great, because my feet tend to be a bit on the wide side. The leather is very soft and overall the shoe is well crafted. Definitely worth the price. The customer service at Zappos was also very efficient and a pleasure to deal with.

Super Pump! I first wore this shoe to a graduation, and my feet were comfortable all day. I would recommend this to anyone who has to stand or walk on hard surfaces for any length of time, since it provides great support. And it looks great.

Love this shoe - I have not had the opportunity to wear them much, but these are great shoes in terms of style, quality and comfort. Taryn Rose shoes are my favorite by far! As recommended, I ordered a half size lager. The fit is perfect.

A worthy investment - I gravitated toward this shoe because I am familiar with the comfort and quality of Taryn Rose shoes. I own several pairs and am always impressed with the style and form of each shoe. I can spend hours (as a busy doctor) wearing them without tiring my feet especially the arches. This particular shoe is costly and much higher than my usual shoes at 3 inches. However I had confidence that it would be comfortable (thicker, but not chunky, heel) and would add that very attractive youthful form to my calf but not at the expense of discomfort. I will probably not buy another interview/presentation/suit pump in a long time so I think it was worth the extra money. Zappos sizes are dead on. I wish I had followed them more closely. In some of her shoes bought from other vendors the size differs but Zappos assessment of the size of the shoes they carry are accurate. I had to exchange one I bought too large. Exceeding excellent shipping and return. I wish all on-line vendors were as responsive. Thank you Zappos.

Second pair :) My daughter tried on my Fortune shoes and it became her good fortune...did not have the heart to take them back so bought a second pair. These are FABULOUSLY comfortable. Suggest you purchase this style while you can-it is very, very classic and available nowhere else. Hard to find such a comfortable pump...most styles have an open front which is not appropriate for all occasions. You will most assuredly love these!
