Customer Reviews Privo by Clarks Spangle

Nice boot and comfortable enough. I would not call it a taupe color but more a sand with a subtle metallic gold wash. Excellent service from Zappos, next day delivery!!*****

Great shoe! I wore this shoe all over Europe with no issues at all. Very comfortable, no rubbing, perfect without socks. They run true to size or slightly large. I have them in both colors and both are wonderful.

Great shoe - Great shoe! I have a high arch and these are very comfortable. They don't hurt the top of my foot. I also don't wear socks and they don't rub the back of my heel.

Wore shoes for a heavy duty shopping day. My feet never tired. I felt like I was wearing my old slippers except with better support. I'd buy more!

Feels like a slipper - This is a cute, comfortable everyday shoe. I walk about 2 miles or more to and from work, and this shoe never gave me blisters or discomfort, even on the first day of wear. My only wish is that it came in a narrow width. The arch support isn't fabulous, but an insert from the drugstore fixed that issue with no problem. I agree with some reviewers that it runs a little big, maybe a half size or less.

I ordered the Privo Spangles not knowing what to expect. When I got them, I was pleasantly surprised. Right out of the box they were perfect. They are great to walk in and easy to slip your foot into. I have been wearing them without socks, and your feet get a little tired after several hours if you have been walking a lot. But otherwise, they are fun to wear and look great with jeans. I will be ordering them in black.

All I can say is "wow!" I slipped these on and they felt like heaven. I've finally decided, after some back and foot problems have crept up, to cradle my feet and forgo uncomfortable/unhealthy shoes, but I still wanted something cute. These fit the bill. I wore them for a mile-and-a-half walk last night, and they were wonderful. Shopping was wonderful, and I appreciate the free shipping upgrade. Highly recommend these for a casual slip-on!

I've had these shoes since April and wore them almost every day. They started to get super smelly and the nubuck got flat and dark. I was looking all over the internet on how to clean them. Eventually I just threw them in the wash and put some baking soda on them. That worked, except they were still all dark and flattened. Well, I wanted to share with you, since I couldn't find it anywhere that all you need to do is take your nail file to it and they become all soft again! The arch support is okay, but I have very high arches so I added in extra arch support and it works perfect for me.

Almost perfect shoe for almost every occasion - These shoes are cute and comfortable. I wanted a shoe for travel (it's my ambition to become a lighter packer, now that we're charged for extra bags!) and this would go almost anywhere. Light, too! The one drawback is that it doesn't have as much arch support as I prefer for an all day walking shoe. It is very comfortable nevertheless.

Loved these, but they were HUGE! I really wanted these shoes but found them to be rather large. I wear an 8.5 and the 8.5 felt like a 9.5. There were comfortable, but there was too much room in the toes. Returned these and ordered a few different styles to see what I like.

My Spangle Experience - I am extremely happy with my Spangle shoes. I wore them to my nephew's wedding on Rhode Island this past weekend and I was so comfortable. These shoes are just dressy enough to wear for that kind of special occasion but also offer comfort and support. As someone who is flat footed and pigeon toed, that is utmost important! Your service was exceptional. Fast and dependable. I will definitely use your site again. Thanks for a wonderful shopping experience. Simone N

Great Shoe - Great shoe and comfort was the number one consideration. I have a bunion and that bothered me a little being the shoe crossed right over my bunion, but as the shoe stretched a little it became a little more shaped to my foot. Great walking shoe.

Great looking comfortable shoe - I love this shoe so much I ordered another pair in another color. I am a teacher and on my feet all day long. These shoes are amazing. Comfortable and good looking! I highly recommend them. Also, the Privo sandals I got are great!

I want more Privos! These shoes are awesome! They are comfortable, cute, and very lightweight. I had pretty much given up on my quest for a shoe that was versatile enough to wear with everything (pants, shorts, skirts) and at the same time comfortable enough to wear for hours and miles on end. Then, I found these! I wear them constantly and I always make sure to take them when I travel, especially to cities and other places that require extensive walking. Zappos proved, once again, to be an excellent company to buy from. Thanks!

Love them! I have a pretty narrow foot and these actually fit pretty well. I walk all day and haven't had any problems with them. Plus they look cute with skirts and jeans.

Wore all over Europe! Okay ladies, I am back from 15 days in Europe, I took 3 pair of shoes I ordered from Zappos, these being 1 pair. They rocked. We walked all over Florence & Paris, at least 8 hours every day and they were great. No blisters, no pain, just happy feet!!

Cute, Cute, Cute - These are some very cute shoes. I got the brown Nubuck and it his decorative stitching in light blue. It’s very comfortable - some of the Privo’s with straps are too confining, but this one fits fine. Order a 1/2 size down - I had to return because I didn't follow the other reviewers' comments.

Privo is the best! These shoes are so comfortable. It’s like walking barefoot, only better! I have owned one other pair of Privo’s and loved them as well, but they were a little more substantial in the leather material dept--I actually love that these shoes are so flexible and lightweight--they are the best. And I thought the Nubuck would be a pain to keep looking nice, but I’ve been drenched in water, covered in mud, and they still come out looking great. I did order one half size smaller than I normally would, remembering when I had the other Privo’s, that they run a little big. Would definitely recommend.

Can you say the perfect shoe - I've been looking for the ultimate fashionable slip on and here it is. As soon as I slipped them on, they felt like butter. The knobby footbed is heaven and I ordered a 1/2 size smaller per the recommendation. They may be a smidge big, but not so loose where they will slip off. Only wore these around the house so far, but don't anticipate any discomfort and it seems like they will stay comfortable. Look stylish - love the nubuck - THANKS ZAPPOS!

"Flight Attendant with Picky Feet" Needed a shoe to wear to a (dog show!) banquet with a skirt. Knew I would be standing all night so purchased these in black nubuck. They were great. Not as much support as other Privo’s but they don't look as casual and "sneakery". Very happy with this purchase.

Great for dog showing - I needed a cute shoe that I could wear with a suit, but also be able to run around the show ring. These are perfect. As previous folks have noted (thanks!) order a half size smaller than usual. I ALWAYS wear a 9, but needed an 8.5 in these.

Really comfortable! I ordered a half size lower and put the little pads in the back of the shoes and now they fit perfectly!

LOVE these shoes!!! These shoes are amazing!!! I needed some nice-looking but very comfortable walking shoes for a trip to Eastern Europe. I ordered these in two sizes to try and everyone was right, I needed a half size smaller (I am usually a solid size 8 but the size 7 1/2 was perfect). I wore these shoes for eight days straight and explored Prague and Budapest in them, easily walked 4-5 miles per day with NO blisters or sore spots. They are very cute with jeans, skirts or capris. I will wear them all summer and will likely order a pair of more summery Privo’s as well. Great shoes!!!

Great Shoe - I always wear Clarks for work and often for leisure. This shoe is great for walking. Slips a little on the heel, but the strap keeps it in place. I have had several compliments on the look and love the brown/black combination.
