Customer Reviews Sofft Avant

Avant - A very comfortable dress shoe that looks great. I am able to stand in them for 8 to 10 hours a day.

Great style - Unfortunately, this shoe really needs to be broken in first. It was very narrow in the toe box and I have narrow feet. I've worn them to work 3 times and they're just starting to feel a bit better but I wouldn't wear them if you had any walking to do. They're ok around the office but not a comfortable shoe for shopping or walking. Too bad, cause they look great with jeans.

The arch in this shoe is unusually high. In addition to the arch height the arch has a design embroidered on it so it rubs against your foot adding insult to injury. Probably very good for someone with high arches; mine are average.

Love them, but order a half size larger - This is the most stylish comfort shoe I've ever seen. I like the pointed toe, moderate heel and good quality leather. It's not at all confining on my toes. I'm even going to wear these to work an all day conference booth assignment. I usually don't dare wear anything but clogs to those. The padding inside is great, but that's what makes the fit too tight. Sofft needs to adjust for the padding. I'm going to have to reorder my shoes a half size larger, but I don't like ordering shoes longer than I need to get the width. Sofft has proven that shoes can be comfortable, beautiful and stylish. In my hometown Chicago, women look so dorky walking downtown in suits and sneakers. I want to stop them on the street and tell them to stop the madness and buy decent shoes!

Avant. I like the classy casual appeal of this shoe and the Teak color is perfect for jeans, khaki's, and casual skirts. I too have found Sofft's sizing to be somewhat off. I never wear a wide and find I must order both a full size larger and a wide width to get these to fit comfortably.

These are just not as comfortable as other Sofft shoes I have. They just don't feel like they fit right. I even ordered a 2nd pair 1/2 size bigger to try a size but they were too big. These aren't long enough in the toe box but really they just aren't very comfortable overall.

For a Sofft brand shoe I was really disappointed to find this turned out to be a very uncomfortable shoe. There's just something about the pitch of the shoe and very little cushioning for the foot that made it miserable.

I have WW Feet - These are very comfortable for heels. Kind of casual but conservative looking.

Disappointed in that they run short with the pointed toe. Also I walked out of them in the heel since the heel was too wide. It will be hard to get a good fit on this shoe!

Not a comfortable shoe. I ordered them in an 11W; they fit but felt heavy and clunky. I ended up returning them.

Avant - These shoes initially felt and looked great while breaking them in around the house. But, after standing in them for five hours, my feet were in agony. The high arch support and the tight toe box created pain like I've never felt before in shoes. It took almost 24 hours for my feet to quit aching! Unbelievable. Wish I had worn them longer around the house before wearing them outside!

Cute shoe, but Sofft sizing? These are cute, but were too tight - the left shoe was way tighter than the right. I've ordered 5 pairs of Sofft shoes so far, but have only been able to keep 2 due to fit. They are so comfortable and attractive when they fit, so it makes me sad when they don't. They seem very inconsistently sized.

Small toe box - When I first slipped my feet into these shoes, it felt cushiony and comfortable. But after wearing them for an extended period of time, the toe area became very tight and uncomfortable. The heel keeps slipping out as I walk. It seems that the shoe is made for people with narrow toes and a wide heel. Anyway, I am returning them for another pair of Sofft shoes with a round or a squarish toe box.

The heel is smaller than it looks. And this shoe was not a wide like I had wanted. I'm returning them.
