Customer Reviews Naturalizer Creston

I have been searching for this shoe for over 4 years! I bought the earlier incarnation of this shoe back in 2007 or 2008 at TJ Maxx. I loved this shoe. I saw a pair a year later but never thought to get them, thinking they'd last forever or something! Anyway, I have been hunting various shoe sites and at the Naturalizer store, hoping they'd bring this shoe back into production. And lo and behold, they did after many years. But this shoe is different from the earlier version. This one covers more of your toe area. And this makes them pinch your foot bones, especially the bone at the base of your big toe and the area on top of your foot. So I wish they had stayed with the earlier version in this respect. I think this shoe is less flattering than my other ones. On the other hand, this version has a bit more heel support. The shoe is more solid and sturdy around the heel. The mid-section of the shoe feels about the same. I am pretty sure this shoe will loosen up with wear. I was hoping they'd fit exactly the same because I was ready to buy 2 more pair for backups. But I don't love them quite enough to do that. I had been searching for a ballet-type flat to replace my holey Naturalizers for years. I wanted another shoe that went well with workout wear (e.g., knit pants and capris) as well as jeans and shorts. This shoe is very versatile -- not too much toe cleavage and it's wearable for hours. I am glad they brought it back!

Nice little running around shoe for errands. It does not provide alot of support. I plan on trying an arch support insert to see if it helps.

This is a good looking "comfort shoe." I wish it fit! It felt a little tight on the sides and a little short. I'd order it in a bigger size and give it a try, but I don't think that would fix the sides.

I'm writing this review prior to buying my third pair of these shoes, a third year in a row. I walk at least five miles a day, two and from work and everywhere in between, and I want to look stylish and for my stylish shoes to be comfortable. These are the best ballerina flats I've found. I have high arches, and the arch support in these flats is unique. My biggest complaint is that the leather wears off on the toe. This has happened to each of my two pairs.

They really had a comfortable foot-bed, however the narrow just wasn't quite narrow enough to keep on my feet without socks. They're not the most exciting style around, I thought they looked good with jeans and pants, but for some reason wasn't crazy about them with a skirt. Still a little sad they didn't fit, since they were comfortable, at least during my testing around the house, except for the heel was just too wide without socks for me.

Cute, comfortable - I like the ease of wearing these with jeans or dress casual. They wipe clean with a damp cloth too. I would give them a 5 if they had better arch support. However I find it enough for me.

Slippers - This shoe is like putting on slippers; however, it too is a little wide so I have added some inserts to try to keep it snug.

Great Comfort - I bought this as a basic shoe for work and am so glad I did. It's very comfortable and quiet, no clack! clack! clack!. It looks great with my work clothes and jeans, and at the end of the day, my feet are not hurting.

Wish they could have been mine! I was so excited this cute shoe was offered in a "slim" width. Unfortunately, they were wider than a normal slim so I had to send them back. I was very sad about that because they are so cute!

Sooooo Comfortable - I love this shoe. I wear a wide width and it fits true to size. It is so comfortable; I think I could actually wear them on the treadmill!

Not bad, but not for me - These shoes are pretty flattering, even on a large foot (12M). They were just a little too tight around the band for me, and I could tell the back would dig into my heel. You might need to order a half size up.

Just what I needed! I work at an independent living facility for seniors. I could be at my desk all day or literally running down the hall to answer an emergency call. These shoes fit the bill for what I need. They may not be the most stylish, but they certainly are comfortable!

Comfortable and pretty flat - I have this in Red and just got the black also. It runs about a 1/2 size too big. The Red fits great, but the black is a tiny bit tight. I'm hoping it will stretch with more wear.

Near Perfect - I bought this shoe because of all the great reviews. And, I was told to by a lady who had this shoe. She said it was the only shoe she could wear after foot surgery. Well, that sold me. I have a very hard time finding a comfort shoe that's really "comfort". I had to order a half size smaller than my regular size. This shoe comes real close to perfect. I did get a blister on the back of my heel within an hour. I was so disappointed. The soles are so comfortable I could walk and walk in these shoes. Leather is soft. No problems there. So, what I have to do is bandage up my heels and go. It's the closest I've come to a comfort shoe other than a full oxford shoe or boot. Ecco, tennis shoe, etc.

Is a very comfortable shoe that is dressy enough to wear with skirts and is still good with jeans. The only problem I have with it is that it is a bit narrow in the toe and if you wear it with socks it will eat your socks. I have only to walk a short distance and the heel of my sock will be under my arch. It works very well with no socks or with panty hose.

My Comfy Friends - I really am glad that I purchased these shoes. I wore them to a banquet for which I was responsible (a lot of running around). My back and legs hurt much less than from other events I have worked.

Great Little Shoe - I was looking for a shoe that I could wear for a full day on my feet and this one works great. As the prior reviews state it does run small so be sure to order them at least a 1/2 size bigger.

Cute ballet shoe that's ok for wide feet - I always have a hard time buying shoes that are not "backless", and I walk a lot in NYC (I have a wide foot and a narrow heel). These worked really well. I ordered a 7 Wide, and they fit like a 7 Wide. I wish they were a tiny bit wider in the front, but it's so nice not to have my heel slip that I’ll take it! I’ll order more in other colors.

Comfy - These were very comfortable. Leather is soft and supple. Cushion bed is very cushy. Fit felt true to size. They didn't work for my foot type though. My right foot over compensates and since the uppers are soft leather the entire shoe looked crooked. I bought the wide version but still didn't work. Otherwise these are wonderfully comfortable. Nice looking for a casual shoe too.

Comfortable Shoes! These are great walking shoes. They feel very comfortable and look great. One odd thing though... although you don't feel it as you walk, the elastic makes a mark around your feet. I didn't get blisters just red marks around the top of my foot and the heel. I guess the elastic was a bit tight. Still love the shoes. People ask me about them all the time.

Comfy walking shoe - Felt good from the first day, although the toe box on one half of this pair seemed a bit tighter than the other.

Love Zappos - Love the fact that every one of the shoes I have ordered from Zappos have arrived the next day. That is amazing to me. Love it!!!!!

Good casual shoe - This shoe design is fun to wear with pants of all lengths. It's great for driving, too. Sadly, it doesn't offer enough support but I don't mean to mislead - that wasn't in the description. Only problem I had was that when I first started wearing them, some of the black dye (I own the black ones) came off on my feet. Rather embarrassing because I didn't notice till I left an appointment with my massage therapist. I DO wish they were slim as the size indicated.

Very Stylish - I own this shoe in black and it is stylish enough to wear with everything. The only problem is, is that it is a little too wide. I wear a 7AAA and the width is a little too wide, and it does bother the back of my foot a little. But the good side is that it is a very comfortable shoe.

Too wide - I wear a 9 AAA. Even with my orthotics inserted, this shoe was too wide. I am SO disappointed as I do love the shoe.
