Heel does not last. I originally chose this shoe, in black synthetic snakeskin, because of a previous review stating that is looks like a high heel even though it is a low true, very true. The shoe shape elongates the leg and the shoe looks great with almost anything. Unfortunately, another reviewer is completely right, if you are hard on your shoes, the heel will not last. I normally have my heels recapped from time to time, however, this heel completely split up the side and was unrepairable, after only a few months of wear! The shoe was otherwise comfortable and is great for anyone who does not do a lot of walking during the course of a day.

I am disappointed with these. I like the way these shoes look (the dark brown has a subtle but cool pattern to it), but found them too narrow and rather painful. Sadly they will have to go back!

These are my everyday work shoes. I've had them now for three and a half months and never any complaints until now. Perfect size and width, perfectly comfortable heel height, loved the rubber on the sole to keep from slipping, but the heel has now worn out and now I'm left with a metal stub which means I have to buy a new pair of shoes (already!). Not worth the original price for how long they lasted, so I think I will try to find a more long-lasting shoe than this.

Cute shoe, the vamp is shaped to just cover all your toes w/o cutting into the top of your foot, but the heel is very wobbly and keeps feeling like it’s going to break off. Also, it squishes the toes and because of the weak heel, all of my weight is on the balls of my feet. Very little padding in sole and the outside sole is plastic including the heel cap making each step hard and cloppy sounding. I got it half size larger and it seems to be about right. What a shame, based on the reviews, I thought I finally found a pair of heels I could live with.

Shoe was way too small. I'd say it ran at least a full size smaller than a normal 8. Very disappointed because it's a really cute shoe!

Uncomfortable -
This shoe looks good, although the toe is very pointy, but there is absolutely no cushion or arch support. The skinny heel feels wobbly, and there is no grip on the bottom. This shoe puts all of my weight on the ball of my foot and my toes.

I owned these shoes for exactly 3 months. At first they were very uncomfortable (2 weeks) then became the most comfortable shoe ever. I loved them because they were perfect for work to wear with slacks and skirts and looked professional. About a week ago the heels started falling apart. Today, the entire heel fell off. This is unacceptable. Luckily, I got them from Zappos who's letting me return it for full refund. I am not getting another pair from this brand because of the poor quality.

I loved the style of the shoe, but hated the actual shoe. I was looking for a stylish black heel that was not made of leather. I saw these in a local store and loved them, but I wanted to buy a wide size to get a little extra room for my toes, so I ended up ordering them from Zappos. When they arrived, I was shocked by the poor quality. The whole top edge of the left shoe and most of the top edge of the right shoe felt rough, and painful on my skin. I was honestly afraid to wear them for any length of time because it felt like they could rub my skin raw. They were so rough, I drove back to the store where I originally saw them to figure out if I had totally overlooked a major problem with the shoes. The ones in the store had some small rough spots, but none of the pairs I looked at were as bad as the one from Zappos. Looking back at the Zappos reviews, it seems like the synthetic shoes have other flaws. If Bandolino's quality control is that unreliable, I am not going to buy their shoes in the future. Thank goodness for Zappos' easy return policy!

I wore these shoes once and the tip of the sole came apart. I am not hard on shoes, in fact, I usually have my shoes for years.

Do not buy these shoes. I wore these shoes one time and the sole area near the toe (on both shoes) is completely destroyed. It is not visible at first, but once you see the soles after wearing the shoe, you realize they are made of paper. After one day of wearing these, they are unwearable (not to mention the sole looks ridiculous).

These shoes are really cute and comfortable but I wore them only one day, to work. I work in an office and I literally sit almost all day, but by mid-day the leather sole was peeling away form the tip of the toe on both shoes. I only wore them outside to and from my car to get to work and back home. I was amazed how quickly they started to come apart. The sole peeled back in layers on both shoes, it can't even be glued. I'm very disappointed and will have to return them to Zappos. I don't feel it's unreasonable to expect a new pair of shoes to last more than one day in an indoor setting.

The worst investment ever...as soon as I wore the shoe for a conference, I noticed the sole of the shoe began to wear. Now after only a couple of months, it looks like it got hit hard and I don't wear them that often only when I nudes. Too bad...because they were cute.

Even though this shoe is a wide, it is still too narrow in the toe box for someone with wide feet. Too bad because it's a cute shoe, but not for me.

Loved the look of this shoe - wore it once and the tread literally came apart. The sole of the shoe is made of cardboard, the cloth on the toe snagged as well, these will be going back. So disappointed in what is usually a great product from Bandolino.

These shoes look sharp but have started to fall apart after wearing them just once. Not well made. I\'d return them if I could.

The pair I received fit like one full size too small. Impossible to even try to wear. The arch didn\'t even line up with the arch on my foot.

I ordered this shoe in black kidskin in an 8.5W. It felt narrow and worse, felt flimsy, like the whole thing was going to fall apart after I walked a few city blocks. This one is getting returned. Disappointing.
