Excellent shoe, good weight, nice feel on sole, thick enough bottom so that it shouldn't wear out easily but not too rigid. They will need to be broken in , of course, but I think that they will do so easily.

This shoe is absolutely beautiful and well constructed. it is true to size and width. The problem for me was the flexibility. I just need a softer shoe.

I love these! I hated wearing them when I was a kid, but now they are just fun and stylish! Beware: they are very heavy, and I wore them around the house for a couple of days before I wore them out into the world. But they are very comfortable. And they will last a decade!!

Absolutely gorgeous shoe. Wanted to keep it so bad but couldn't find a good fit. The size 9W was perfect in length, but even the W width was too narrow. The size 9.5W was perfect in width, but too long.

Beautiful shoes! So sad they didn't fit. The 9W felt very narrow. I am reordering in a half size larger and crossing my fingers.

The stiff material of the shoe hits me right in the heel, with no give, causing a blister. But they're very cute and this problem might be quite specific to me.

Love the "flashback" shoe, but size was totally off. Normally wear a 10 /med and could barely get the shoe on with light sock.

I so wanted these to work. They are nice looking. The shoe is deep, but it just wasn't quite wide enough in the toe box for my feet. I wore them around the house hoping they would loosen up, but they just hurt my feet. If you don't have duck feet, these will probably be just great for you.

Hard to say if comfortable being I had to return due to the edge of the shoe was hitting my ankle. I have trouble with closed back shoes. But all in all they were fine shoes

Shoes fit very well. The toe box is incredibly roomy, however, this is also a draw back and makes the wearer look like they have clown shoes on. The heel is also high, and the shoes are heavier than I expected. Sent back for a different pair.

I love these shoes. I have all three colors and wear them all the time. For some reason, though, the white part on my black and whites has cracked and pieces have chipped off. Otherwise I love them.

This shoe has more toe box height, better cushioning in the sole than cheerleader III that I wore last year.
I ordered this shoe in a wide and it really did not seem like a wide.

Very good retro style, toe box was not wide enough for me even though I order 1/2 size up.

Delivery on time and I love these. They do run a little big, but just a little. I am keeping them since I'm unsure if getting a smaller size would be just a little bit too small (I bought 6.5). I have gotten several compliments on them and people reminiscing about having them when they were a child. The quality is good and they clean up well. I've had them for over a month and worn them more than 10 times. They look like new.

Had to try these shoes which reminded me of my days at Garden City High in NY. Swell shoes, but not for my feet anymore because the counter chafes my ankle bone. Sadly, they must go back.

I bought these for a school costume dance and I never want to take them off! They are so cute and quite comfortable. They're really sturdy, seeing as they lasted through an entire evening of nonstop dancing. It took a little bit of work to get my foot past the rigid heel the fist time, but now they fit great!). I have gotten so many compliments on them and I will be wearing them everywhere. I am all for bringing back the saddle shoe - Who is with me?!

Bought these very cute shoes for my mom, which look as pictured, but unfortunately, the W width isn't wide enough. Her toes felt scrunched and pinched together. Sadly, I'll be returning these and we'll continue the hunt for shoe nostalgia.

I love these shoes! Sturdy, comfortable, and fun. I've wanted some real saddle shoes for awhile and was excited to find them. I get lots of comments on their coolness level. They were stiff at first but are softening with wear.

Very cute shoes but a little clunky. They are very heavy and run a bit large. Very well made.

The Upper Class version of this shoe is nicer. The toe support in this shoe shows in the toe bed. I prefer the padded tongue in the Upper Class Version as well. That said, I reordered the Upper Class a half size smaller and in the wide for a roomier toe box. Check out Muffys.com for saddles as well.

The medium is really a narrow. Never worn anything but a medium with comfort. Returning for a wide. Love the shoe, but beware.

I usually wear a 7, so I ordered these in a 7.5 per review recommendations. They are super cute but feel a little loose in terms of fit compared to other shoes I wear. However, I don't think the problem is enough to return them. I am excited to wear them as my new work shoes.

I could not get my feet into them. I recently had my feet measured, still a 7.0 on the left and 7.25 on the right. I ordered 7.5W, my usual size. I gave them one star because I have no idea if they are comfortable or not. I'm going to try a different brand.

I couldn't hardly get my foot into the shoe. Definitely order larger size. Shoe comes up high around the ankle.
