Walking Cradles Mate Wide Shaft

Overall:

What a pleasant surprise! Honestly, I ordered these expecting to return them. First of all, I have size 12 feet and wide (about 18") and extremely tall calves, so I am used to disappointment with boots. I was this close to ordering a custom-made pair, because I hadn't yet found a boot that met all my criteria: flat, extremely comfortable for all-day walking, reasonably attractive, and that actually fit my calves without needing to be taken to the cobbler. Second of all, I bought a pair of Walking Cradles flats a few years ago for a vacation, and though they were decent quality and rather comfortable, I would not have called them attractive. So when I saw that WC was making a wide-calf boot, I thought what the hell, I'll just try it. And I am very glad I did. The 12W fits me perfectly in both foot and calf, and they're actually pretty nice looking in person; they look and feel like what you'd want from a pair of boots at this price. And they have the comfort level you'd expect from a company called Walking Cradles. I haven't even worn these yet, but I''m giddy just thinking about it.

Disappointing. Yes, the shoe is very soft; however, I found the lack of support to be an issue. Also, the right foot seemed considerably smaller than the left foot - too tight across the base of the toe and a blister on the heel after wearing in the living room for a short period of time. The shoe is nice looking and the tapered end and slight heel are flattering.

Mislabeled size? I own two pairs of Walking Cradle shoes, both in 7-1/2 D width; they are a bit long, so I purchased these (copper color) in 7W. I cannot get my foot into the shoe, even with a nylon trouser sock! They seem to be more like a 6 narrow. I can only presume them to be mis-marked. Back to my familiar Naots, I guess. But the color is gorgeous!

Shoes are excellent. Size was as expected. Comfortable right out of the box. Lightweight but good support.

Classy & Comfortable - Very nice, expensive looking and comfortable shoe. Looks good with skirts and slacks. Nice alternative to heels when you have to be on your feet. Very true to size. I ordered the cream color, great neutral!!

Received my shoes today, after waiting only 2 business days. Wonderful service. I will be returning them though, because I need a wider size. I got a "D" width, which usually works fine, but these seem to be a little on the narrow side. Was also disappointed in the arch support. There is very little arch support, but, they are super soft, cute, comfortable shoes. They didn\'t have an "E" width available, so I\'ll look for another pair of flats.

I have very wide feet, high arches and bunions. Needless to say, finding comfortable shoes for my feet is challenging. I initially ordered the Walking Cradles assuming I'd be returning them pretty quickly. Not so! These shoes are like slippers! Great cushioning and soft leather. Highly recommended! Keeping my eyes open for other Natasha styles.

I bought a pair of Walking Cradles and put them on and wore them to a party the same day that I received them. I have never, I repeat never, had such a pair of comfortable shoes as these. I have very wide feet and they just felt wonderful. I wish they would come in all colors. Keep up the good work. I will shop again at Zappos; they are just great.

I am a nurse in the military and have to wear my uniform to work which means I had to wear those hard, uncomfortable uniform shoes every day (and had been doing so for over a year) until I found these shoes. They are so very comfortable! My feet no longer hurt and feel scrunched up every day! I would recommend these shoes to anyone.

The Walking Cradles that I ordered from Zappos should be called Walking Clouds. I suffer from arthritis and my feet and legs were so comfortable the first day I wore my Mileys. In fact, I was so pain free that I ordered a pair in Brown the very next day. Wonderful, wonderful shoes that are a true size and very, very comfortable.

Very comfortable right out of the box. I have a narrow foot and often flats will slip at the heel. Not these. I can walk miles in these with no complaints. Not the cutest flats around, but not orthopedic looking, either.

Overall:

I adore these shoes. I have plantar fasciitis, which means that my feet hurt quite a bit, particularly after I've been sitting for a few minutes. Other shoes I've worn have been too firm to cushion my feet once I do get up and walk again. The work I do means I'm often sitting at a computer for long periods, followed by long periods of walking or standing, so I need something that keeps my feet comfy no matter what. These are definitely the ones. From the moment I put these shoes on, I knew they'd be great. They're easy to slip on and off, and the cushioning in the insole is so soft. These are more comfortable than my sneakers, but they're stylish enough to wear at the office. They keep my feet cushioned, and I can go all day now without them hurting! I'm so glad I got these! The only downside is that the width is a little off. I ended up having to order them wider than I normally would. That said, they fit like a dream. I'm going to order them in brown, too, so I can match any outfit!

Overall:

Very pretty shoe. These shoes are a lot more comfortable than I thought they would be. There is a lot of cushion on the bottom, pretty comfortable, I could not wear them all day, but I am too used to wearing athletic or Birkenstock shoes. I did order a 1/2 size larger after reading other reviews and am thankful because the toe box is a little smaller, or the length is just a tad shorter. Overall, I am very pleased with this purchase, and am excited I have a very stylish shoe to go with dressier clothes!

Overall:

I suffer from Morton's Neuroma (get out the violins) and it's incredibly difficult to find shoes with a wide toe box. The Walking Cradles Adobe are comfortable, yet stylish. These shoes don't work for me for long walks, but are perfect for trips to the mall or when I'm out visiting friends. If you're looking for a casual shoe you can slip on and off with a wide toe box, give these a try; with Zappos you can always return (and shipping is free!).

I have a lot of arthritis in my feet, plus wearing a size 12 makes it difficult to find comfortable shoes. I was going on a tour and needed a shoe that was comfortable to walk in, had some support and was a little more dressy than a pair of athletic shoes. The Miley Walking Cradles were perfect.

Overall:

Very comfortable. Very soft to walk on. Easy to pop on or off. Look very dressy and easy to keep clean. My only problem has been that due to the rounded edges of the heel I have slipped off the back of the shoe a couple of times, but this is common with mules. Squared edge might ruin the look.

The shoe lives up to its reputation of being comfortable and good looking. I wear them with dressy-slacks or jeans. I'd buy them again.

Overall:

Really like these shoes. Purchased them for a trip to NY that I knew I would do a lot of walking but still wanted to look nice. They are very comfortable. The only problem is the 9.5 seemed a little snug so I got the 10. Felt ok but now seem a little big. I have a very narrow foot, which is a problem; because manufacturers seem to think if you wear a size 10 your foot is on the wide size. Bought an insert for the shoes that seems to help. So other than the size issue, which is really because of my foot, I love these shoes. Cute and comfortable.

Sweet fit. Purchased these, and 3 other styles, to wear to a wedding. I have wide feet, a bad knee and heels are usually tough for me. Well, I chose these above the others because they are supportive, very comfy, good fit and a secure heel. I wore them for several hours, and had NO discomfort at all. THANKS ZAPPOS!

I bought this shoe and it only lasted 6 months. After that there were holes in the bottoms of the shoes and I only used them for work. I had to cut the straps off because they were too tight on my feet as well. They had nice padding on the bottom of the shoe.

Cute shoe, I had to get it stretched to make it more comfortable for my second toe next to the big one. Going up a width would not help, but as with most of my shoes a little shoe stretch and it is all good. Great heel height,good for end of fall and next summer.

Overall:

Not all Walking Cradles are made alike; some are true to size, some are wider, some are narrower. Overall, I love them! This pair is true to size and perhaps a bit wide to accommodate 1 W and 1 M foot. They look professional and are comfortable and 'cradle' my feet for long days of standing and conducting training. Happily with Zappos, we can try shoes on and determine what works best in each style even within the same brand.
