These are comfortable, good-looking shoes.I bought a pair a year ago, the first pair since a substantial foot operation. I've worn and worn them, and wanted to have a pair that would look and feel new and fresh after the second foot operation. So I bought two pairs, one black, one denim blue. I love them.

I am a professor at a university. So, I have to stand and walk and look a bit presentable. This is my second or maybe third time purchasing either this exact shoe or the predecessor. I love them.

Really wanted to be able to keep these shoes. I ordered the UK size 5, as i am normally a 7.5 in flats. They were big enough almost to walk out of them. Went down to the 4.5 UK, and they were tight in width and toe box. Too bad i have to return, because they have the ballet style look that i wanted but with better arch support.

Very cute shoe. Had to return them because of my bad feet... not the shoe. Wish I could wear them and that they had them in Wide.

The fit was uncomfortable, a little too narrow and yet the style was great. I felt a bit of unease in the heel area around the top of the shoe. I was not impressed with the construction of the shoe for the price.

I am an 11.5W but ordered these with a bit of wishful thinking. I do think they are true length and width. They are very cute and would be perfect for an all day flat career shoe. Sadly, I just really do need a wide. If you have a wide foot, these won't be close.

I loved the look of this darling shoe! Almost like a Ferragamo in appearance, the patent leather is cool, and the heel hieight is very wearable with all kinds of outfits. Unfortunately, I walk for miles at a time in any shoe I wear and this slightly uncomfortable style will not work for me. If you don't need to walk long distances this shoe would probably be fairly comfortable, but could tell it doesn't have the thick padding I need for long distance walking. It was disappointing as I have found other Ara styles to be remarkably comfortable out of the box, especially at a fairly low price point.

I’m keeping these shoes, but I know they need to be broken in. They are a bit stiff and rub a bit just above the inside arch but that will should soften with wear. They are just a “scooch” wider than most my shoes but not enough to make a big difference. Perfect length- size 9.

LOVE THIS SHOE BUT UNFORTUNATELY MY RIGHT FOOT SLIDES OFF THE HEEL AND I HAVE TO RETURN THEM.

I wear 8 and 8.5 Medium shoes consistently with no issues. I have never bought this brand before and love the look of them. I tried size 8M and they were too small. So I opted to reorder the 8.5M and they fit everywhere other than being wide in the heel. I'm returning them.

This is a great shoe! But the cloth top shoes aren't stable for anything other than flat walking. I lace them as tight as I can and they are quite comfy, with arch support. If the laces are loose, then my feet slip side-to-side; feels a bit sloppy. But for long stretches of flat surfaces, this is a great shoe. I do worry that as this shoe ages, the cloth top will sag out and become unwearable. Until then, I'll frequently use this shoe.

This is the 3rd pair of this style that I've bought. These are a really fun metallic and just a very comfortable and good looking shoe. I wear it with everything.

If I could get this in every color, I would. Comfortable and very stylish

I wore this shoe for the first time today. My grandkids are here and ran me ragged. Got home, made dinner, etc. sitting down I realized I still had these shoes on. And after they were off, the left no trace, no sore heel, or cramped toe - as if they were never there. Happy feet, happy life.

Great summer work shoe

The fit is off, the color is black not deep blue as I expected and they squeak obnoxiously when walking on hard floors indoors. Not what I expect in Ara products- but surprising, the shoes do not say they are by Ara- not sure if this is an off-label name for Ara or what. There is no mention of Ara on the packaging that IDs the brand as “Jenny.”

Comfortable and cute shoe with reasonable arch support. Zappos suggested a 39 based on my usual size but I had to return for a 38. I have narrowish feet and narrow heels and slip ons usually don’t stay on my foot. These do.

Love these! They have a slipper feel on the inside, but a really current look on the outside. The fit was perfect for my feet, right out of the box...no breaking in needed. The first time I wore them was to work...9 hours on my feet!

The 8.5 uk size is just right for my slightly bigger than most size 11s. Really like this shoe and wish it came in other colors. Would certainly buy more.

My second pair. Now have the pink and the blue. Fits my narrow feet. Good support, materials, quality. My go-to summer sneakers.
