Customer Reviews J-41 Escapade

Not so flattering for bigger feet - Nice, solid shoe. Seemed like it would hold up to the pounding of summer in the city. However, they were not flattering to my size 10 feet; made them seem like they were miles long.

Cute little shoe - I bought this shoe to wear sightseeing. It is very comfortable and is casual and goes well with jeans or capri pants yet dressy enough for skirts. I wish J41 would make more shoes like this. It is comfortable, cute, and fun to wear and goes with everything. There are way too many sneakers and frumpy shoes out there for walking but this one is different. Excellent job J41!!

Great little dressy shoes for those who crave stability - Not much arch support if you have high arches, but overall a great little shoe. I bought mine half a size larger to accommodate foot beds [they show a tiny bit, but it is worth the comfort to wear them]. It's so hard to find dressy shoes that don't torture your feet, but these fill the bill.

Not for pregnant feet - Loved the way they looked, but were not comfy for my swollen, pregnant feet. I normally have a somewhat wide foot anyway, so I knew these would not work for me. These would be perfect for someone with a narrower foot and low instep. I ended up returning them and Zappos is so easy to work with. Very quick turnaround time.

Cute shoe, but was too short. Also, the ankle strap felt uncomfortable, like it would cut off my circulation.

Cute shoes - These are cute shoes, but that's where the positives end and the pain begins. The toe box is much too small, with vertical room for my foot. The arch support is almost non-existent. I appreciate the attempt to make a sneaker-like shoe which is also attractive, but the comfort level is poor, unfortunately.

The back of the shoe rubs the Achilles tendon. The shoe looks a little clunky. I had to reorder one half size smaller than usual. I decided to keep the shoe because the toe box works well with my bunions. I normally cannot wear shoes with closed back.

Thought I loved these shoes but... These shoes are so cute I ordered them in black and metallic. But unfortunately I didn't wear them enough before I threw away one of the boxes. My toes keep catching on the top of the shoe and I can't wear them. Beware of these shoes! Make sure you wear them around the house a while before you decide whether to keep them or not. I'm sticking with my Naot's from now on.

So sad! I ordered J-41 Escapade in size 7 1/2. I actually wanted the red pair, but my size was out of stock. When I received the espresso pair, I was astonished to see that it was almost one size bigger than my actual size. Of course, there was no 7 in espresso, so I had to call and request an exchange of 7 for J-41 Escapade-Sports in charcoal/sky blue. So comfortable! I can't remember the last time I needed to buy a 7, but this pair fit my feet real well!

Yikes!! I liked the styling and comfort of the shoes until my ankles and joints swelled and a rash developed! What is up with these shoes? Thinking maybe it was a freak occurrence, I tried again. Allergic reaction again. Bummer.
