Customer Reviews Clarks Aurora

This shoe fit extremely well and is very comfortable. I ordered the size I usually wear and it fit perfectly in width and length. It is stylish and the low heel is perfect for work. It looks good with skirts, dresses and pants. The heel is a bit "rough" on nylons; it tends to wear them a bit. Otherwise, this is a very good shoe.

Run big - I just rec'd 2 pairs of size 11, and although I am always a true 11 med, these are about a 1/2 size larger -- I wondered at first if I got a 12 by mistake. I am also a little worried about the heel (a bit high on my foot) causing blisters. I am a clog wearer, though, and very used to mucho comfort. Have to send back.

Cute shoe - I love the style and shape of the shoe. I had trouble with the top back of the heel as it dug into my heel, but after I added a Dr. Scholl's heel shaper, no worries. These shoes are cute for dresses and slacks. I walk a lot at work and I am comfortable in these all day.

Decent shoe - I ordered a wide. Compared to the Firefly sandal, which was too wide for me, this shoe is more like a medium. I like the width, but Clarks seems a little inconsistent with their width. The sole seems to be thin and melted on to the shoe. The inside of the shoe is not very smooth (glued on to where the leather upper folds in). Otherwise it is nice looking and fairly comfortable. It's not slippery to walk in. It's a little long for the size.

Cute, but the heel digs - I was looking for a good walking shoe for fall. This shoe is very cute. I got the brown and I'm quite satisfied with the look of it. The bottom is very padded and cushy, but I found that the back of shoe sort of digs into my heel--but only at the top edge, where the shoe ends. This is probably nothing a little heel grip/pad cannot fix, but I still didn't wear them outside for a few days while pondering whether to the exchange them for the next size up. I normally wear a 9 and I have fairly wide feet, but I've found in the past that when I order the 9 wide in Clarks, that the heel slips and the shoe feels too roomy. So in this case I went with the 8.5W, which I ultimately decided to keep. I have lots of toe room, but will definitely need to get a heel grip to remedy the heel-dig problem. Width-wise, they are okay. The other comfort issue is that the seams from the over-lapping leather pieces in the toe box are a little stiff. Hopefully, this will improve with time and wear.

Clarks Aurora - It’s a great looking shoe, but it is uncomfortable. The leather is extremely hard and rubs and the back of the shoe comes up higher than normal, so with the very hard leather, it is painful. Clarks quality is no longer what it used to be.

Cute but uncomfortable. I'm a Clarks fan, but these are disappointing. I found them stiff and narrow. The heel was so stiff; it was just a blister waiting to happen. I suppose they may soften as they are broken in, but I just returned them and bought another pair of Clarks that were comfy from the start! (Thanks, Zappos!)

Clarks Aurora - I wear a lot of Clarks shoes, but this one would not work for me. My foot is an 8 1/2 W. In this shoe the 8 1/2 W and 9 M fell off and the 8 1/2 M was too tight, so I ordered a different style.

Cute but uncomfortable - The 11 narrow kept slipping off my heel and was very uncomfortable. It seemed like it was a full size too large. So, I ordered a 10 and it was too small. I will keep ordering from Zappos until I find just the right fit. I'm so pleased with the service and can't believe how quickly the shoes arrived. Thanks for great service!

I ordered the narrow and found it fits like a regular shoe since Clarks tend to run wide. The leather easily scuffs and the shoes already look worn even though I’ve only owned them for a few weeks and have worn them a handful of times.

I wear a 10N and this style was *very* wide, even though marked 10N. Also, the right shoe felt one full size larger than the left (both marked 10N) - it literally fell off my foot. When they fit, I love Clarks, but this style just didn't work...

I usually take an 8.5N which was too long and too wide in this shoe. 8N was a close fit, but the stiff leather made the shoe uncomfortable for me. (My feet are bony and easily annoyed.) The sole was not as flexible as I would have liked. I was disappointed in that I love the look. I'd like to see the comfort of Trotters combined with the style of the Artisan line.

So-so - This shoe was not as stylish as I had hoped. The trouser socks I favor did not work with these. Also the edges and sides were not soft. I did return these; they would have been ok for an event but not an everyday shoe for working in real estate.

Clark's Aurora - At first they felt very comfortable although the leather was not as soft as I hoped. Now they are way too big - too wide. I really need a C and these are a D. I am still breaking them in.

Sizing was off - I ordered my usual size 5, and the left shoe fit OK, but the right shoe really squeezed my toes. The leather is really stiff too, but that wouldn't be a problem if the shoe fit. Compared to the other size 5s in my closet, this shoe is a half to a full size smaller. I'm going to re-order a larger size and see how that works.

Clark's Aurora - I love the look of this shoe. I made the mistake of wearing it on a day when I would be on my feet all day and walking a lot. It is not a good shoe for that. My feet were tired and rubbed in one spot. (I didn't wear socks or stockings.)

Nice plain shoe, wish it was more comfortable - I had high hopes, since these are Clarks, and liked the style very much from the photos. The shoes are not up to Clarks standards for comfort, however, which is disappointing. The sole is fairly comfortable, but the heel pinches and rubs like any other shoe. I like the styling, with nice vintage lines, although they turned out to be a little more frumpy than I thought they would.

So so - I feel that this shoe was not the usual Clarks shoe. The arch support was poor as well as the leather detailing was not as fine as usual.

Clarks run big - These Clarks Aurora are a nice conservative style for the business attire. However, they seem to run big. Wear them around the house first. I got a blister wearing them to work the first time.

Heel cutter! This shoe is definitely a heel cutter and more narrow in the toe box than it appears. I thought it was cute, but inflexible and had to send it back.

Disappointing - These shoes were really disappointing. The back of the shoe is very stiff and really poked into my ankle. I wouldn't have been able to wear these long enough to see if I could break them in.

The Worst Clarks Shoe to Date - I own numerous pair of Clarks and they've always been my most comfortable and favorites to wear. Not these! These shoes are SO uncomfortable!! "Leather" was extremely stiff and the shoe looked very cheap. My feet are killing me!

Disappointed with sizing - I ordered this shoe in 6.5 and it was too small, specifically it was too short and my toes rubbed the end of the shoe. Reordered it in a 7 and it was too big, this time too long and too wide. I'm confused about Clarks sizing because I just purchased 2 other pairs of shoes from them. One in a 6.5 and one in a 7. Their sizing seems to be very inconsistent.

Very disappointing shoe - I had heard that Clarks ran small, but honestly my regular size (8W) is too long for my foot and will require a heel pad. I was planning to wear these as a nice alternative to sneakers for an upcoming European trip. I had pondered these vs. a pair of Riekers recommended by a friend. Boy, did I make a mistake. NO WAY am I going to be able to bring these. I guess I'll pull out my old Naturalizer flats. Let me first say that I work on my feet all day and am accustomed to breaking in all sorts of shoes. In spite of the extra length, the width felt fine UNTIL I stood in the shoes for awhile. The thick leather criss-cross has rendered my toes painfully numb every evening I've worn them. The toe box also presses down on my great toe, making it feel as if the shoes are too short (they aren't!) These shoes feel great to stand in for awhile, or I NEVER would have ventured out of the house with them. HUGE disappointment. My last resort will be to spray some leather stretch over the "bunion" area (I do NOT have bunions, by the way) to attempt to salvage this shoe for anything other than a couple of hours at a time. (I will say, though, that I Love, Love, LOVE Zappos.)
