Customer Reviews Franco Sarto Bocca

MORE OPTIONS - I would like the other Bocca options available in wide widths. There are only 3. I am really interested in the Croco, but they are not offered in wide.

Patent leather is a fun for a change - I have gotten a lot of comments about these shoes from everyone. The style is quite conservative, but in black patent leather, they really shine. The only downside: my feet make a "sucking" sound as my foot moves around when I walk.

Bocca's have become a staple - Over the past several years, I have purchased numerous pairs of Bocca's in a variety of colors. They tend to run a little wider than other brands which works well for me. Their style is flexible and can be worn with jeans or business attire. I have been very happy with the shoe.

Comfy and versatile - This is my second pair of these shoes. I like them because they go with anything from jeans to dress pants to casual skirts and are very comfortable. The only bad thing about them is that the leather tends to wrinkle right away, making them lose that "new shoe" look. Although I am marking them "felt true to size" I think that they may run a *little* large.

Five Time Buyer - This is the most comfortable pair of shoes I can find! That's why I'm on my fifth pair! I work as Dealer in a Casino and stand on my feet all day long so my shoes must be comfortable. However, I do wish they would last longer. Then tend to fall apart quickly.

Classy Looking and Pretty Comfortable - I have an extremely hard foot to fit (I'm around an 11/11 1/2 W or WW), but this loafer has come the closest to a good fit that I've had in a while. It takes a couple of wearings to fully break this shoe in, but once it's broken in, it's quite comfortable. It's also a very snappy-looking shoe.

Very comfortable shoe from the first time I wore them. I wished, though, that I would have read more of the reviews and purchased a half size smaller. They do tend to run a 1/2 size bigger, but overall, very comfortable and nice-looking shoe.

These shoes are very comfortable and not too conservative. I bought a pair in each color. I am usualy an 8 1/2 or 9 and the 8 1/2 fit perfectly.

I like this shoe. It's classy. The shine is great and it is a comfortable shoe. As in the description, the toe has a slight point off to one side which is unique. The only problem I had was that the navy shoe was so dark that it looked black. I tried a second pair but the same color (almost black) came--so unfortunately the photo of the navy color was not accurate. I have this shoe in brown and red calf and like them. Very comfortable loafers.

I ordered these in a wide and it seemed like they were narrow and overall the look and style were OK.

Franco Sarto is Consistent! These shoes are great for what you'd expect from Franco Sarto. They are comfortable to wear for hours on end once you get that first day in and they are good quality for a reasonable price. These shoes completely met my expectations for working in a conservative office. I guess the only reason I didn't rate them a 5 is because they were fairly conservative in style, otherwise they are great.

Franco Sarto 'Bocca' These shoes look so good! They look great with dress pants. They can dress up a pair of jeans, too! They are also comfortable and, lucky for me, come in narrow sizes. I naturally prefer to order a narrow size versus adding an insole. These fit my foot nicely! Admittedly, I had problems deciding what color I wanted! Such selection!

Bocca review - A very nice, stylish loafer at a good price.

Good Office Shoes - I have 'problem feet' requiring a relatively flat shoe and a wide toe box. These shoes provide both, I ordered a wide size and I found them true to size. They are pretty comfortable, and very stylish, as with most wide shoes though, the shoe fits great everywhere except the heel, where my heel flops around. Overall, a nice, good looking stylishy comfy shoe. I would reccomend it.

The shoe itself is great, and looks very cute. However it is not nearly as comfortable as the previous year's version. There are weird lumps under the ball of the foot and the heel that make the shoe not as comfortable as it could be. I almost felt like it was a little too big, but I got a 7M and the 6 1/2M was too small. Plus, I always wear a 7M in Franco Sarto. So overall the shoe looks cute, but it isn't as comfortable as I would have liked.

Love them, even if they hurt! For some reason, the Franco Sarto loafers really hurt my feet, especially after a day on my feet. But, I love the look, so I remain loyal!

Tough to break in - These come out of the box like they are made of concrete, but they do break in and become custom fit and more comfortable. You may get a blister in the process. These were replacements for the same style, but a few years old, that held up well and were a good basic loafer for pants or a very tailored skirt and tights.

Franco Sarto - These shoes are so cute, but unfortunately the fit was uncomfortable for me. I order a 6.5 in black and my foot slide out the back, so I exchanged them for a 6. The exchange was to small and the wide width felt like a standard width. Too bad, I really tried to wear them around the house to break them in-it never happened, so I did a return.

Patent leather FS Bocca - I love the look of this shoe, and I have received numorous compliments. However, the first few times I wore the shoe my toes were a little sore. A breaking in period was definately needed. The inside of the shoe is red which rubs onto stockings and socks. Other than those two complaints, I basically love the shoes.

I'm an 8M - The fit was fine, but it felt like it was a dress shoe trying to be a comfort shoe. The upper was comfy but the toes, sole and heel were stiff and uncomfortable.

very stylist but not true to size - I bought this shoe but had to return it as it was much too narrow. I wear wide and usually have no problems but this shoe was very tight I could barely get my foot in it. It's quite stylish though and would go with anything.

Comes in Narrow - I have narrow feet in an 11 and I could have ordered a AAA if it came in it. I have to wear thicker socks but I'm very pleased.

I have two pairs of these... I just got my pecan antique suede Boccas. I had ordered the black leather ones a year ago, and saw the suede and had to get them. The leather ones I have are very smooth and other than normal wear and tear, they're still holding up. The suede pair I just got are cute, I will wear them with jeans and wool sweaters this fall. Just so you notice, this shoe comes to a gradual point at the big toe, and the suede antiqing isn't as blended as I'd like for dressing them up. A little bit more funky (hence wearing with jeans). I always appreciate other's comments, so thought I'd share mine.

Good basic shoes for work - Nothing exciting about them but they go with everything and are reasonably comfortable. Good basic for your wardrobe. Slightly large if you plan to wear them with tights, they slipped off my heels a little as I walked (right after buying them). Would probably be fine with socks.

Loved the style! Maybe the shoe size was labeled incorrectly, but the middle part of the shoe was VERY narrow!! Heel and toe box were great, but middle part was painfully tight. Will have to return.
