Customer Reviews Comfortiva Neima - Soft Spots

I have worn slingbacks ever since college, when I worked in an upscale department store and needed shoes that didn't scream "18-year-old-working-her-way-through-school." I have been in love with slingbacks ever since. Not only are they generally comfortable, they are sexy in a classic, sophisticated way. And as I was in need of some classy and sophisticated shoes for an upcoming formal wedding, my thoughts ran first to my stylish standby, the slingback. But as we women age, we naturally lose the cushioning on the bottom of our feet, so comfort is now just as important as style. Luckily, Softspots came in to save the day!The Neima is a beautiful leather shoe with sexy lines, great padding and even comes in narrow, for those of us with slender tootsies! Unfortunately, the narrow is a wide narrow, so while I'm keeping them, I went with the smaller size of the two I ordered just because they were narrower. Both would have worked for me, but the narrower pair was better, and I still may add some padding as the leather stretches to conform to my feet, just to take up some slack. But overall, the shoes are gorgeous and well-made, and while they might not be as outwardly sexy as the 6" heels the 20-somethings will be wearing, I'll be the one who's able to dance the night away!

I received this today. I have a very wide foot. They were immediately comfortable and there is a reasonable (not a lot, but enough) padding to be comfortable.

I have the hardest time finding comfortable shoes that are wide enough. I had been looking for a brown, comfortable, wide enough heel. I ordered the extra wide and they actually fit!! The back strap was fairly lose so I had to poke another hole and get inserts so my foot wouldn't slip, but after that they fit very well and are very comfortable.

I wanted to love these! They were comfortable out of the box, and have a great vintage vibe. Heel isn't too high, but they have a nice shape, super soft leather, and very comfortable padded footbed. The trouble I had -- and I have this with all slingbacks, so it's not an issue unique to this shoe itself -- is just that my the back strap would slip off my heel, unless I tightened it so much that it then pushed my foot forward out of the front. As said, this is a challenge I have with all slingback styles, so if that style tends to work for you, then you'll probably have good luck with these. I really liked them but knew they wouldn't stay on my foot all day.

Beautiful shoe! Fit my very wide foot very well. Adjustable strap around the heel to adjust is very helpful.

The shoe is very pretty but I wear an 8 1/2 N and that is what I ordered. The shoe was too wide even adjusting the strap. I wish they had fit.

I love these sandals! I purchased them to wear to a wedding and they were so comfortable. I was able to dance and walk around all night without my feet hurting! Everyone else was taking their shoes off and I could have kept on going. I think I may get them in every color so I'll have them when I need them. Perfect sandal for dressing up!

These shoes are very comfortable and run true to size. The back strap was a little floppy on my heel but punching an extra hole makes it work perfectly.

Love the look the shoe and the height of the heel. Nice amount of cushion in the foot bed. Good for wearing around the office but not enough arch support for me to be on my feet all day.

I ordered a variety of white heeled sandals in search of something pretty and comfortable. These were definitely the best. My only caution is that they seem to have stretched out once I wore them a few times and now feel a bit too big. If I punch another hole in the strap I think they'll be fine.

Most of the previous reviews are spot on about these shoes being super comfortable and designed for larger feet. I am in between 7.5 and 8 and have bunions too. 7.5 in medium (not wide) is perfect! Wide size would have been too wide for my foot. Quite loose around the heel too - I am on the last hole in the strap and it's just right - not too tight. Soft leather, cushioned sole. Great style to wear with work pants in summer time. Overall, good quality comfortable shoes.

These shoes are very comfy, and I have a lot of trouble finding shoes that fit my wide foot. The heel strap is a little loose, but I'll take the advice of another review and add a little moleskin and see if that helps.

This is a nice looking sandal, and the heel height is good. It's so hard to find a pretty sandal that does not have a 3-inch or higher heel. It was true to size. My only complaint is the insole because where the leather meets the suede it makes it uncomfortable at the bottom of the toes and ball of the foot, causing calluses, so I won't wear them if I have to do a lot of walking. An all suede or leather insole would be much better.

I read another review before I bought these that said her foot slipped out of the sling back, but I have a wide foot which tends to keep my foot from slipping too far forward in a shoe, so I thought that would not happen to me. I was wrong. I ordered EE and even on the tightest hole the back strap would slip off my heel when I walked in the house. I'm going to try a half size smaller and see if that works.

My foot runs a bit narrow so when a size 8 medium was too wide, I swapped for 8.5 narrow. Alas, even the narrow is a bit too wide. Combine that with slingback...my feet sort of fell off. Great looking shoe though!

I ordered these in black and in navy. I received both pair this afternoon. The navy shoes are really comfy and fit perfectly. Here is the strange thing. The black pair had a sharp seam in the footbed. It's been sewn in backwards. The holes in the back strap aren't straight either. It seems that the black pair must be an irregular or seconds or something. They will be going back first thing tomorrow.

This style fits larger than a low heeled style I recently purchased by Softspots. Ordering the next size down and sticking with the medium width because these are going to be for walking all over a convention. Pretty shoe.

I wanted to love this shoe. Very cushy footbed for a dress shoe. But the narrow was still too wide for my foot. This might work well for someone with medium or wide feet who needs to stand for a long time in dress shoes.

Pretty shoe. Love the black patent. I normally wear a 7 1/2 narrow. Shoe was slightly short so I exchanged it for an 8N. Length was better, but the shoe was still a little wide for my narrow feet. I just put some pads in and all was good.

Comfy and beautiful. I wish the strap would adjust to be even smaller. I will need to create more holes on the straps to make them fit properly. (I don't want to return them because they are perfect otherwise!)

Love the style. The heel strap was too long and the shoe flopped on my foot. (Worse when I wore nylons.) Had to take them to a shoe shop and have the strap shortened.

These shoes run really big. I usually take a 9.5 Wide, and in this shoe I wear a 9 medium. They're quite comfy and obviously, roomy.

I found this shoe to be too loose also and a little wobbly. I need a very stable shoe. Cute and soft though.

I wear a 41 in Dansko and 9W fit me in this. I haven't been comfortable in heels for years and these were pretty good. Less give due to the patent probably the leather would have been better. But I made it through the wedding and even danced in them!

Really liked them - the word metallic is little misleading - bit in a good way. I feared they would be really shiny, but they are more like a dark glossy patent leather. The footbed of these shoes are really comfortable, but the straps kept catching on my left little toe...so back they go.
