Customer Reviews Donald Pliner Viana9

Size runs big - I vary between size 6 and 5 and 1/2 so I ordered both. The size 6 was huge, even with the straps. The size 5 and 1/2 is just right, borderline too short. I got the shoe in the cork color and it will go with all my summer clothes. Wonder if it will be hard to clean?

Beautiful shoe but not that comfortable - I have a Van Eli that looks similar to this shoe and I like it much better! I love the look of this shoe but the ankle strap hit my foot in the wrong place and was painful.

Almost perfect -- *IF** your feet will stay in the shoes! I was dying to get these shoes for over a year, and a finally ordered them in the platino. Absolutely gorgeous and generally quite comfortable. However, I found that with only the ankle strap and the little strap across the toes holding my foot in the shoe, walking was going to be a problem. I could immediately tell my foot would be falling out of the shoe constantly. Sounded like an ankle-breaking hazard! Even one more strap slightly up from the single strap would have done the trick. So, after all that dreaming of this shoe, they're headed back to Zappos. I'm glad that part was easy!

Great wedding shoe! I’m so excited! I bought these for my wedding to go with my dark ivory dress, and the color is perfect. They are comfy, very cute, and I will probably wear them again. I normally opt for higher heels, but since it's "the big day" I thought I’d be more practical. This shoe does a great job of meeting my needs: something practical, but cute. Who wants ugly shoes under their beautiful wedding dress?

Super cute shoe - For us large footed ladies, it's hard to find a shoe that makes your foot look sexy but I have to say that this is one of those times. I have the bronze version of this shoe and it's easy to dress up or down. Great with jeans and skirts on the short side. The footbed is totally comfortable. The only problem I have with this shoe is the front part of the footbed is a little narrower than I would like but it's not uncomfortable. This is the only reason I gave it 4 instead of 5 stars.

Very cute, sexy shoe. I needed a gold, kitten heel shoe to wear with an early 1960's vintage evening gown, and the Viana in is perfect. It's very modern looking, very dressy, and yet works with jeans, too. It also works well with my vintage pieces because of the kitten heel. I like the low heel, and the thong doesn't bother me as much as I thought it might, but I do find myself wobbling on the heel. I think it's because the back strap only attaches right at the back of the heel, and I'm not used to that. Still, for a dress shoe, they fit perfect right out of the box, and they don't feel like they'll give me any problems when I wear them.

Gorgeous shoe - This shoe is truly sexy and gorgeous, but I fear they will not be as comfortable as they are good looking. The cross strap bites into both of my little toes, and the footbed is not quite as padded as I would like, though it's not as bad as some I have tried. It's a shame that it is not a shoe I will wear for extended periods of time, and certainly not for a lot of walking. I love the idea of it - I bought it in black nappa and blue denim. They're both great colors, denim is great with blue jeans. If you plan on sitting still, you'll look great, but if you plan on walking, bring bandaids! Zappos service - phenomenal.

Chubby toes beware - I chose these shoes because they looked sexy but had a lower heel and I need to keep up with a toddler. The section for my big toe is a little tight and the ankle strap hits my foot in an uncomfortable way as well. I was better off with my pre-Mommy heels.

I have both the black and silver for about 1 year. Worn each handful of times (silver probably less). Silver material does not wear well AT ALL. Metallic wears off quickly. Comfortable sandals, but save your money and go for non-metallic color. Sorry I bought the silver.

Sexy shoe ...but... I thought these were the sexiest sandals out there! The low heel is perfect - why don't more shoe designers make shoes with this height of heel? Once I wrapped and secured the buckle and started walking - the fairytale ended. These hit at such an awkward place below the ankle and walking in them was not fun. The constant rub on the back of the heel - I was so disappointed.
