Customer Reviews Arche Lilly

I am a mature woman who is still working full time and on my feet all day. I also love to travel. These shoes are extremely comfortable whether I am at work or getting lost in some fabulous European city. They have a neat, classic look. I have owned them for over a year and have walked many miles in them both indoors and out. They provide perfectly adequate support. I have not had any blisters, foot pain or leg pain. They wear well with significant abuse. I am about to order a third pair (different colors). Thank you, Zappos, for the best online shopping.

The review I read indicated there was excellent arch support. The is no support at all.

My favorite flats! I own this flat in the red/poppy color. I bought it from the gift store in the Mirage when I was in Vegas and was in need of relief from my painful heels. Little did I know these shoes would turn out to be a long lasting favorite! I get compliments on them every time I wear them. They are so airy and the fabric is so comfortable you can wear them without nylons and your feet don't get gross. They are such a great alternative to my patent leather flats, which I have to wear nylons with. You know what I m talking about. My patent leather shoes always make weird noises when I walk if I wear them without nylons and make my feet sweat. These shoes are genius. If you have difficult to fit feet, the holes throughout allow more of a custom fit and give to the shape of your feet. I personally always have a hard time finding shoes that fit my larger feet (10.5). These are perfect and the soles are really durable and comfortable enough to walk long distances in. They are actually very feminine looking once on your feet, which is not evident in the pictures shown. I would hesitate ordering the lighter colored fabrics because it is similar to suede so it can tend to get a little dirty. For as much as I wear mine, I am very happy I got an easier color to keep clean as you cannot just wipe them down. The elastic mouth/rim is comfortable and allows custom fit. Love, love, love! Say hello to your new, perfect, casual flat. Oh, and I looked this company up and I don t think I would ever wear any of their other shoes. They are really not attractive. They almost feel like nurse shoes, or Easy Spirits that just happen to be really cute on. Shhh, it's a secret. You don t have to tell anyone!

Just received these. Fit like a glove, the leather is soft and molds to whatever lumps and bumps your foot shape may have. Can't wait to wear them. The crepe rubber bottom will make them a plus for vacation.

Love these shoes! They take a bit of getting used to (for example, the elastic around the top of the heel that holds the shoe on so well can "bite" your ankles the first couple of times you wear them until they stretch out). Luckily they seem to stretch about 10%, so I would recommend if you are a half size, going a half size down (I'm an 8 1/2, and size 8/39 now fit me perfectly). If you do apply a shoe stretching spray to speed the process, apply only to the inside of the shoe, as most sprays are not meant to be applied to the outer nubuck). They have very little arch support, which I normally look for in a shoe as I have moderately high arches, but are nevertheless very comfortable. I would not wear these for a prolonged outdoor walk or hike with the relatively slim sole likely not handling rocks or uneven terrain well, but can't wait to try them out in an airport.

The perfect ballet flat. Instantly comfortable and could walk all day in them. I spend a lot of time on business travel and therefore a lot of time in airports. These will be my new go to shoes for traipsing through airports. Plan to order more pair in different colors. I normally wear a 7 1/2 M-W and ordered the 7. Perfect fit.

I have had Arche shoes that I loved so much that I've worn them till they practically fell apart but not so much these. While they looked cute in the photo, they sort of look like grandmotherly bedroom slippers, at least in black. What I really dislike about them is that the dye comes off and your feet and toenails look filthy, even after numerous wearings. The first time I wore them, I was going to yoga and it was so embarrassing to be in bare feet, especially with the snarky comment that 'that's what happens with cheap shoes' (namaste, to you, too). Since I live in Asia and any time you go to anyone's house you have to take off your shoes, I can only wear them when I know I won't have to do that, so they tend to sit gathering dust and they are too expensive for that.

If you wear a half size I would recommend going up in size not down as suggested.

I love these shoes. First time for me to buy Arche shoes but not the last for sure. Very comfortable and very cute.

One of the most comfortable pair of shoes I've ever owned! At one time, I've probably owned every color they made! I must always have a pair in some color in my closet!

I bought these for a trip with a lot of walking. After one hour I had major blisters on my toes so I had to return these shoes as soon as I got home. I have had Arche shoes in the past and not had this problem. These shoes are very uncomfortable and two weeks after my trip, I still have blisters on my toes after these shoes. I expected to have good arch support but they had virtually none.

Arche brand is the most comfortable shoe I've worn in years. They are worth the cost. I've got just about every color in this style they make.

Nothing better in summer if you need to look neat and trim but hate hot, sweaty feet. They are soft, lightweight, and let your toes enjoy a breeze.

Super cute, super comfortable, great color that goes with everything. I get a lot of compliments on these shoes.

I really like these shoes - they are comfortable and look cute with pants and jeans. I took them on a cruise and they were perfect for the ship and the off ship excursions.

These are without a doubt the most comfortable shoes that I've ever worn. I bought my first pair of Arche flats last year and since then, I ordered two more. Yes, they're pricey, but they are so durable. The first pair I bought before a two-week vacation last year, looks as good as the new ones.

I want to strongly recommend the Arche "Lilly" even though I did not purchase this shoe at Zappos because they did not have the color I so wanted. The color is coveted and spent much time trying to find (and ultimately) succeeding is "viola" which is a stunning electric deep violet (trust me). The comfort is as others have stated, very sexy, and a standout among all the variety of flats out there now. Do whatever you have to do to buy a pair. I know they are not inexpensive. And, nu the way, would have bought them from Zappos if Zappos and their new owner (well known online bookseller) had a way of sharing stock...so wound up buying them there. Are you listening Amazon?

This shoe is super comfortable and seems to be true to size. Typical of the Arche fit.

I have the Lilly in 5 colors. The Laius in Fire and Ice Melissa. And 1 Laius in red nubuck. And red patent with peek toe. I think I have found the shoe for me. Can wear them all day without complaint. For a devoted flat lover, this is the shoe, and more. The Ice style gets raves all the time. I'm 64 years old.

Okay, so I need to find a stylish walking shoe for 3 weeks in France that doesn't make my feet look like a box. Though expensive this shoe was perfect! It was comfortable, fit even when my feet would swell after a day of walking and looked great with jeans and dresses. This is the most I've ever spent on shoes, but this shoe was well worth the price! Thanks, Zappos again!

A Great Alternative to a Sandal - This is the best shoe...a very cute flat but it is great for summer because it is so airy. It is a great alternative to a sandal, especially for city walking because your foot is protected. I have this shoe in blue and in pink as well as this black one. People always compliment me on them when I wear them...which is practically every day! I wish that they came in even more colors!

Lovely shoes - Lovely shoes, but a little tight around the toes.

Awesome - The Arche's Lilly is the most comfortable shoe I have every had. It is light weight and has the support necessary for cushion and foot support. I love my new shoes.

Wonderful shoe but too small. I normally wear a 7.5 but ordered a 7 because of recommendations on this site. I am afraid an 8 would be too big.

This buttery leather slipped on and felt comfy right away.
