Bought this shoe in bronze before and really like it. My true size is 6-1/2 WW and this shoe meets my requirements (after a break-in period). I wish they'd offer a slightly higher heel, because I think that is just more elegant. For the life of me, I do not understand why shoe makers think a wide foot is equivalent to a low heel requirement.

I wore these in black patent in size 9WW and ended up in pain. While comfortable at first, these shows ended up binding and chafing my pinky toes on both feet.

Very nice look. Sable Herring Print goes well with brown or black. The look is classy with a touch of casual. I wear them for work - very comfortable. I ordered my size in a wide; they were a little bigger than the size, but heel pads fill the gap.

So very beautiful and so well made. I'm not used to such a pointed toe for an old lady like myself but my husband liked them on me so I decided to keep them. They are so very comfortable as well. I usually wear 7 1/2M because usually shoes don't come in Narrow widths. So when I saw narrow widths, I decided to go up a size and choose a narrow width because I was afraid to have my regular size in a narrow width. It turned out almost perfect and very comfortable.

I am reviewing my second pair of these shoes. I bought the first pair when I started work, and after a year of walking and using them, the heels were worn down. I think this was a function of use, not quality. I purchased another pair, exactly the same, and love them just as much. Easy to break in, very comfortable, no toe cracks showing. Height is perfect. This is the first time I have ever re-bought a pair of shoes.

This is a very classy, stylish, and elegant looking shoe. The 2 1/2" heel is perfect for me. I can wear them all day and still be very comfortable in them. I ordered my 1st pair a little more than a year ago and my 2nd pair (different color) shortly after that. I just now order my 3rd pair and waiting for inventory of my (hopefully) 4th. Lovely shoes. Absolutely lovely.

I am wearing these right now. I had to order 3 pair in 3 different sizes to find the right fit. The leather is nice and supple, so it stretches. (I have the red kidskin.) I initially ordered the 8W (my usual size) but it was too big, heel slippage not walkable. I then reordered the 7.5 W and the 7 W and decided on the 7.5 W. The toe box is comfortably snug (remember, the good leather stretches) and the heel is fine. The thing I love about pointy toe pumps is that my foot stops before the 'point' and my toes don't slip to the very end of the shoe, as in some round toe versions. The heel height is perfect (I have arthritis and cannot tower on stilettos!). I wear these for 8 -9 hours at work (not on feet all day, but plenty of walking) and only on the 9th hour has my arthritis swelled to the point where I am ready to take them off. Just received a compliment on the color today. I would order these in multiple colors because my foot is hard to fit (wide ball of foot, narrow-ish heel) and these work nicely. Next season, I will purchase the navy and maybe a patterned version!

I was skeptical about purchasing a pair of white shoes that I was unable to try on, but I'm so pleased with them. The shoe is actually a very fashionably modern looking pump designed of nice kid skin. I am grateful that I was able to find a white shoe that is so pleasing because I could not find one in any store that had just the right heel height. Not only does the shoe look great on, but it is very comfortable as well. I have been asked by several ladies where I purchased the shoes.

I have a hard time finding shoes that are wide width. These shoes fit perfect. I have recommended to my friends and family to order from Zappos.

I wore these shoes for the first time at my son's wedding. They fit great for 6 hours on cement floor. The only problem was that the heel cap on one shoe came off near the end of the evening. I figure it got caught in a crack, and I'll just take it to the shoe repair store. I would definitely buy another pair of these shoes!

Love this shoe. Goes so well with black or gray.Can't say my feet don't hurt at the end of the day, but I don't wear heels often and I'm not as young as I used to be. I may actually order in another color. Nice size heel. Not so high to be a killer, but high enough for a little style.

Absolutely perfect. Fit as advertised, just the right heel size, a little give in the shoe so broke in quickly, super cute.

My first shoe purchased based on positive Zappos reviews. I wear a double wide. Looked good (better than advertised) and was comfortable walking around in them all day.

These shoes are awesome! Mostly because they are both black and brown but in a stylish way so you can wear these shoes with a lot of outfits. Also, the heel isn't too tall so they are perfect for work. Great shoe!

This is the most comfortable pair of heels I own. I have a med. width foot, but many heels feel too tight across the toes & too loose in the heel. But these are just great. Highly recommend. Ordered my regular size. Never heard of this brand before but am hoping they are making more.

I ordered 2 pairs of black shoes for my son's wedding. I need a wide and can't find them in the stores...thanks to you I have a large selection to choose from! When they arrived (less than 24 hours later with regular shipping) they fit perfectly. I decided to keep both pairs! However, I have had to return tennis shoes because I ordered the wrong size and the process couldn't have been easier. Zappos is now my first place I look for shoes!
