Nice bride shoe - Plastic heel caps are always way too slippery. I always take new heels to my shoe repair guy and he glues on a thin strip of rubber -- no unexpected falls or near misses and the clack-clack of heels is reduced. Try it!

Nice dressy sandal - I bought these in gold, & they are beautiful. Comfortable enough for formal wear, but not as comfortable as other Vaneli shoes I own. Straps made marks on my foot after a few hours. Still, I'd recommend them.

Toe crunching! Love the look of these shoes and initially they felt great...but after a couple of hours my baby toes were getting "caught" in the side straps and actually swelling. I've always loved Vaneli's to dance in...And dance I did, even with the pain! I had toe surgery a year ago and still experience swelling, but I wore these shoes around the house and on carpet for several days and felt confident I had made the right choice. Guess it wasn't a "true" test of an evening of walking, dancing and standing! I'll still buy Vaneli's, and I will definitely shop with Zappos again...easy and quick delivery!!

I purchased an 8 in these in a store and thought they were good until I tried them at home and they cut into my feet, so I ordered them in an 8 1/2 Wide from Zappos and they were perfect all night dancing at my son’s wedding. I am starting to need wide sizes now and am so thankful for Zappos which has many styles available in wides. They don’t have a lot of cushioning on the soles so I put a gel cushion you can buy separately in them and they were perfect. I love the look, they are stylish and elongate the leg which is a good thing for me. These are worth the price in comfort when you get the right size.

Modesta Soles - I am returning this shoe and another pair of shoes from the same maker because the sole is made from material that easily scratches and deteriorates. Too bad for me because I love the design and comfort of the shoe.

These are stylish and comfortable, but length is short. I ordered my normal size and a half size up and they were both short.

Bought two pairs: black patent and gold. I needed shoes that had some heel and were comfortable. These filled the bill. Wore one pair to my son's wedding and danced all night!! I have a wide foot and went up a half size.

Not bad for a dress shoe - First dress shoe ever that was actually wide enough for my feet! Of course I had to go to a double wide, which is not my normal size, but dress shoes always run so narrow. Interestingly, it seems that the extra width is all in the straps; the soles are still pretty narrow, but beggars can't be choosers, I guess. I have worn these to several events already this summer - a couple times I had to walk a few city blocks - and the straps did not hurt my feet at all. That said there is absolutely zero cushioning, so my feet were still tired and sore after a few hours of standing, but I'm really not complaining. Anyway, I got the silver color. It looks nice and goes with just about everything.

Excellent shoe! I bought this pair in a 7W and it was very comfortable. I wore it to a wedding where I was the maid of honor and had to do a lot of running around. My feet were totally comfortable all day and night. I wore the shoes 11 hours straight. When lots of people were kicking their shoes off to dance (including men) I was totally comfortable with mine on all day! I highly recommend this shoe.

Ordered in Black Pesca Fab (7W) and Platino Metallic Nappa (7WW) because the latter wasn't available in W fitting at time of order (and I needed them fairly quickly for a convention I was attending). While the 7WW was a tad wide, I was able to pull ankle strap to last setting and it worked fine. Straight out the box they both fitted so comfortably on my wide foot. No straps digging in any place and even my pinkie toes (short) managed to remain unscathed. Love them both - the black is practical - goes with most anything and the platinum added some evening zing to white pants or summer dresses. Great buy. I possess a few other Vaneli sandals and they've not let me down yet. Nor has Zappos, which continues to deliver on its wonderful customer service. Speed and efficiency. Love it.

These shoes are soft leather so they are very comfortable. My bunion and I are happy wearing them! They are true to size and a great dress shoe. I ordered the wrong size and when I called, a new pair was shipped out without charge and I was told to just ship the old ones back, free of charge. You can’t go wrong with this company! They value their customers and treat them with respect. They also stand behind their products. There is nothing to lose with Zappos! I’m a customer for life!

These shoes are pretty cute; not too high which is nice. They were very comfortable when I first put them on, but when I wore them to the event I bought them for I found that they did start to hurt me on my pinky toe, but only on the right side. So, it may have more to do with the fact that I didn't break them in at all.

These dressy sandals hold my very narrow feet in place without sliding forward or sideways. The straps are pliable enough so they don\'t hurt my toes at the pressure points. I am pleased with stitching which seems quite secure. They are a deluxe looking pair of shoes which I am pleased to own.

Cute shoe! I thought I'd give this shoe a try based on the other reviews, even though the photos make it look a little frumpish. But once it's on your feet it's very pretty. I read on another online shoe store that the shoe runs a half size small, so I'm glad I ordered a 9N instead of 8-1/2N because my toes would definitely have spread over the end of the shoe. I'm still breaking the shoes in so the straps are tight on the baby toes, but the leather is soft and should give a bit. I won't be dancing like a lot of you gals. I'll just be happy if I can walk the round trip from my cruise cabin to the dining room!

These shoes were very comfortable the first time I wore them dancing. The straps are forgiving and the heel height is perfect. I liked them so much, I purchased another pair in silver.

Ordinarily, Ii will go to great lengths to avoid wearing any shoe with a heel. However, a wedding a reception demanded dressy shoes. I am fortunate that I chose this shoe as it was completely comfortable, easy to walk on and dance in for hours on end.I would recommend this shoe without hesitation. BTW, I generally take between an 8 and 8.5 and the fronts of my feet are wide. The 8.5 was on the large size, but was perfectly comfortable and did not slip and slide.
