Customer Reviews Arcopedico N42

I bought this 'bootlet' in cherry. I have joint issues - so comfort was my main concern, then style. They unsnap on both sides, so they are quite easy to pull on. I also purchased a pair of Arcopedico 'Rose' ballet flats. Both pairs of shoes are extremely comfortable.

Fits perfectly to size. Leather is soft and boot if very comfortable. They're easy to get on and off, a real plus. They also look really sharp and don't make foot look big.

The fit was perfect. Slipped right on my feet. They are soft where they need to be and the extra support on the arch really helps my poor feet. No more feeling like I am walking on glass all day long!

A really great bootie! Very comfortable and cute. These will be your "go to" shoes- super easy on and off. For an orthopedic fit- these do not look nerdy.

Great boots! They are comfortable, a great color, and look good. This is my first pair of Arcopedico shoes. I loved the look of the boot and when I got them the fit was great. Hurray Zappos! I was able to try 2 pairs of boots before finding these. Worry free shoe shopping!

Feels like wearing butter - delicious, satisfying, fulfilling. Not only are they cute and compliments don't stop, but they feel so good. Perfect fit, stylish, the red is rich, I'm going to buy another pair just have not been able to justify the expenditure - yet. My current favorite shoe for all of the reasons above.

Cannot believe how light and comfortable these shoes are. Don't expect heavy duty weather wear but more casual and cozy with dress or pant.

I wore these boots every day, everywhere, for a 3 week trip to London. They were perfect for extensive walking, in London or in Cumbria, with nice, sturdy soles and the most comfortable interior of all the boots I tried. They also were good for evenings at restaurants and the theatre because they are really cute with pants or a skirt. I love them!

Very soft leather, very comfortable, true to size. It accommodates my bunions and feels like a slipper. Makes feet look smaller. Good support. I am keeping the first size I ordered. Ordered an extra pair one size larger, as I often need for boots, but not necessary with these.

I always buy my boots a size larger then put in athletic insoles. These shoes fit like butter. I never tried wearing them without the added insoles, but these never needed 'breaking in'. I work 10-12 hour days walking on tile and concrete floors. I love these boots. Style is not the 'greatest' for office, but comfort over-rides the small issue of that. I have had these boots and worn them 3-4 days a week for 10 months. Recently replaced the insoles and still going strong.

I have foot problems and this Arcopedico footbed works for me without an orthopedic insert, so I was delighted to see a boot added. They feel great and add a new look for me, rather than the maryjane look. Good with jeans.

Very comfortable with good arch support. I walk a lot on city streets and this shoe provides good support.

I had a hard time snapping the shoes on and un snapping them since I have weak hands due to arthritis, I had to return the shoes.

This shoe is stylish and lovely soft leather. I could actually get it on, which has been a problem for me with booties without laces. However, I could not get both side snaps done up, so am returning them. I would say that if you have larger legs, this might be an issue for you. Very nice style, however, and looked good on my foot.

I also have a high instep, but what pleased me about THIS arcopedico (N42) is the two snap closures on the ankle, allowing for more room to slide my foot in...when all else fails, a shoe horn works for me until the shoe/boot is broken in, but this boot was soft from the start and was fairly easy for me to slip on after wearing a couple of times. The boot is soft, nice looking and very comfortable to wear...I was so pleased I bought a second pair (espresso and red) and feel safe and secure walking on most surfaces in most weather. No trouble negotiating wet leaves on city pavement, cobblestones, etc. They are easy to clean with a soft cloth. I have not yet polished them. There is room enough for an orthotic or other arch support, without compromising the toe box or width and heel.

I'm usually a size 7, so I originally ordered these in a 38 (recommended size) but they were too big. So I sent them back and got them in the 37. Perfect fit!

A+ for comfort. However, the shoes looked like bedroom slippers, so returning them.

These shoes were in my Favorites for a year and never reduced in price. $165 is more than I wanted to part with, but I finally caved. The leather is beautifully soft, the color is not too dark or bright, and I love the snaps on either side of the ankle (as opposed to that horrible velcro). The styling is cool, the toebox is roomy and there's enough room for an orthotic as long as your instep isn't too high. BUT I just couldn't abide the cheap-looking plastic molded sole. The shoe is made in Portugal, but the sole looks like Chinese crap. If you can overlook that, it's a comfy, rockin' boot.

Nice short boot but after reading the reviews, I ordered a wide. Guess I didn't need the wide, the boots were too sloppy everywhere. Would have kept them if I had ordered my usual B width.

This shoe is just too wide and sloppy on my feet. The length is good, but even with socks my feet were swimming.

PROS: Extremely light Very soft supple leather Lots of room in the round toe box Heel does not slip Well made Comfortable like slippers Heel not too flat Room for orthotic Accommodates medium weight socks No rubbing anywhere CONS: Not going to win a style contest Low on arch support Cherry Red too brown; a bit dull, closer to burgundy. NEUTRAL: Not the biggest opening for foot, poppers a bit awkward as they are behind the ankle bone, but that ensures no contact with bone. OVERALL: I sort of wanted to return them because I bought some expensive and stylish Naots at the same time, but these are too comfortable to take off my feet. Lots of wiggle room for toes and they have the light weight I crave and my knees require. Not for serious walking (for me) but good for short trips when sneakers won't do, and great for around the house. My feet say yes.

Very comfortable and light little boot. No break in time required, thanks zappos!

They're kind of ...shiny. Don't know if will keep.

I like the boot--dressy and understated--but it's not for me. I ordered a slightly larger size than normal to accommodate a small-ish orthotic for additional arch support. The boot is supple leather, and probably would be okay (size 41 for a size 9 women's foot). The toe-box had plenty of room, and if I didn't need more arch support the leather would likely be soft enough to conform--it was what I'd call "snug but comfortable." But when I put the arch support in, I was unable to close the outside snap around my ankle.
