These are a great casual and comfortable pair of shoes. They are absolutely true to size. I bought them in the red, wanting a happy color that went well with jeans and sweats. I couldn't be more pleased. I like them so much that I plan on purchasing another pair in another color. The one negative is the red strap across the instep bleeds onto the skin, leaving a bright red mark. It washes right off, though.

I really like these shoes, and since getting them have received many compliments on them as well! They are slightly too big, so I'm wondering if I should have gotten 1/2 size smaller, but it doesn't bother me. I'm looking at other shoes from this same brand, because they are so comfortable!

I've been wearing this shoe for several years now; I have 3 pairs in brown, grey, & violet. Great with jeans and casual clothes. Have traveled all over France & Texas in a pair. One small caution (4 star overall rating): Being on a platform, attention to, say, cobblestones or uneven paving is important. Many rave reviews from friends and strangers. Quite love them.

Good transition and summer shoe -
Just what I was looking for -- an airy shoe for the first warm days of spring, but for well into summer as well. Convenient to slip into and I've worn them with shirts and pants. I usually can only justify buying black shoes, as they will "go with everything," but I got these in bronze and they are universal for this season. Quite comfortable, but those with a narrow foot may not feel secure enough in these. The strap allows for some adjustment, but the shoe is quite roomy.

I would not want to take a journey in these shoes. They are very comfy with sneaker like feel but still have too much of a heel to wear all day long for me. They are very cute and fine if not walking all day.

Comfy but Walk slower in these...
It'd felt really comfortable after a full-day's wear. However, it is designed rather wide (even for my wide feet), which makes you feel like you'll be losing your shoes if you walk fast! I'd decided to keep it anyway as it's really comfortable, pretty cute, provides some height, and I work in an office environment that doesn't require quick walking anywhere.

I have purchased this in black the black wears off on feet. Very comfortable does run half size big. I do hair and stand all day and these are by far the best shoe I have worked in. My feet do not hurt at all at the end of the day. Just wish did not fade on feet. A little pricey for that to happen and imagine all the Nubuck ones do this.

Runs Big and Wide -
Very cute shoe. They do seem to have some moderate arch support. Looks great on. My only thing was as others have written, they run 1/2 size large and are wider than your typical shoe so they slipped off even though I tightened the strap. I'm hoping when my next pair arrive (I ordered a 1/2 size smaller) that they will fit but I'm a little skeptical.

Cutest shoes -
While a little wide, these shoes are very comfortable and feel great all day. I now have 3 colors, and always get compliments. The flower trim gives a different look than most shoes similar to these and each color combination is great. I wear them with and without socks.

Great shoe -
I already had the shoe from Macy's in the green & wanted the black. I originally ordered from a different online shoe company, but their order didn't have the shoe in size 7 - so they referred me to Zappos. Comfortable shoe, I can wear ALL day with no problems. I just have to be careful walking, I can fall easily. I get compliments when I wear the shoe, even just standing in line getting lunch.

Love the way they look -
Shoes are great looking with slacks and skirts. They are not wonderful, however, for walking very far - at least for me because they are VERY wide and deep and there's no way to adjust them across the toe box area. If you have a somewhat narrow foot these shoes will not fit, even with socks.

Stylish comfortable heel -
Great work shoe for an "on your feet" job where you want some style beyond sneakers or clogs. Get tons of compliments on the look! Super cute! Not quite as easy to walk in as they appear. They actually run a tiny bit large.

Extremely cute and mostly comfortable -
Because they're mostly comfortable, I am satisfied. But my expectation was for it to be VERY comfortable. The leather is a little stiff, so the toe area rubs a little bit. What I dislike the most, however, is that even with the little strap across the instep, you have to grip a little with your toes on each step and I find that leads to tired feet and on a very long day, blisters on the bottom of the gripping toes.

Absolutely adorable -
These shoes look just as cute on your feet as they do online. Very comfortable footbed and height and no "clicking" or "flip-flopping" when you walk. The footbed is very deep, so my top of my foot doesn't come up to the top of the shoe if that's an issue for you, but it feels and looks good.

I get a lot of compliments on these shoes. I ordered them hoping for comfortable shoes I could wear to work with either dresses or pants. They do work well for this and are pretty comfortable but not quite as comfortable as I had hoped. There is less cushion on the sole than I expected and there were a few discomforts that have disappeared after wearing a few times. Overall I like them a lot but probably wouldn't have paid quite as much because I was paying for comfort and these weren't significantly more comfortable than a shoe for forty or so dollars less.

Cute shoes, but falling off!
Maybe I bought half a size too big, but it seemed that if I went any smaller, my toes would be jammed into the front of the shoe. This could be because I have rather wide feet but a very narrow heel -- so the shoe would feel like it was falling off, even if I strapped it very tightly (which hurt). A halter cushion and gel soles fixed the problem so that now the shoe is quite comfortable. I'm not used to heels -- even wedges -- and I don't find the shoe comfortable for long distances and uneven terrain. However, for normal urban walking around, they are fine. And I have to admit that they are really, really cute -- I get asked about them all the time!

Sporty fun -
These are fun, comfortable, stylish shoes that all your friends will initially think look weird and then ask you where you got them so they can get their own pair.

This is a very adorable shoe, but the red is much darker than it appears on the website. Although the length was right for me, the upper part of the shoe was very large, like you'd have to wear thick socks to make it fit well. I returned them.

I was so disappointed at how wide these were in the toes. I have narrow feet (size 8.5) but these were simply swimming on me in the toe box. I checked to make sure they weren't a wide -- but they were medium width. Sorry that these are going back as they are really cute.

Overall, not impressed. I bought these a little over a month ago, I thought they were cute but after wearing them I'm realizing they just aren't that comfortable. The bottom is very rigid and it hasn't become more pliable with time. They're noisier than high heals in my apartment! The heel is not very shock absorbing. If you have sore joints and these will not help. Also, I find it awkward to walk briskly in them and I'm not new to clogs. They look cute and I like the concept of them but if I'm going to wear this type of shoe it has to be really comfortable and these unfortunately aren't.

I wanted so much to love these shoes, they fit great, and were very cute, but every time I took a step they slid off my feet no matter how I adjusted the strap. I had to return, major flaw or recall on this style.

Wearing 9.5 size, I have a slightly narrow foot - not enough to order a "narrow" size. These shoes are a tad wide, and I ended up with a full size smaller than normal. They are okay for standing, but lousy for walking. I walked a few blocks in town with them, and ended up getting blisters where the straps hit the inside of my feet. They sure are cute, though!

First of all, the service from Zappos was great! I was amazed at how quickly the shoes arrived. Now on to the bad news. I really wanted to love these shoes. They didn't deliver. I paid what I consider a lot of money for them, yet the materials feel plastic and cheap. My feet keep sliding and scrunching into the toe box. To top things off, the seam around the trim has already started to fray. Sorry, I know I'm in the minority here. For one thing, I wish the foot bed was entirely leather -- whoever told them it'd be a good idea to incorporate stitching and fabric around the edge -- bad idea. I'll continue my search for the perfect summer shoe. Meantime, I'm going back to the comfort of my cute four-inch cork platforms.

I do not like the metal circle/strap. Don't like the feel of metal om my ski. The other type were better.

I found these shoes are comfortable but not true to size. I ordered 9 1/2, which is my shoe size. I should have ordered a 9 or maybe an 8 1/2. I can't wear them without socks.
