I have two other pairs of Paloma's and I love them! I'm a teacher, and I really needed a pair that would look good with denim skirts. I bought "Rave on the Nile", and was a bit surprised how sparkly they are, but they do look great with denim. I wear them with tights or without socks, so my regular size is perfect, but I would have ordered up a size if I wanted to wear socks with them. I do love the adjustable velcro strap, and the memory foam insole. I have rather pronounced bunions, and I notice a slight rub when I first put these shoes on, but after a few minutes of wear, my feet "settle in" and they don't rub anymore. Great shoe, and great service! Thanks Zappos!

I am pretty amazed by these shoes. They are sort of clunky looking, and I was afraid they would be stiff and like walking on blocks of wood. Wrong!! They are extremely comfortable the whole day long. I spend about 10-11 hours at work, walking on concrete floors and my feet are as happy at the end of the day as at the beginning. The insole is both soft and sturdy, The slightly curved sole helps you sort of roll forward, so walking feels like less of an effort. The sole is thick but stable; there's no clog-like feeling of instability. You don't ever get the feeling that you could roll your ankles off of them. Best of all, they fit my feet, which are very wide in front from going barefoot as a kid, but have relatively narrow heels. Danskos don't fit me, and I have a pair of Klogs that are really cute, but have that block-like feeling I mentioned. The Alegrias are far superior comfort-wise and they are really well-made. I think I see another pair or two in my future. I got my usual size and the fit is perfect. I got the regular width, and they are plenty roomy.

These shoes are adorable and comfortable for being on your feet all day. However, the removable insole is very thick so when I replaced it with my orthodic, the shoe no longer fit properly. Unfortunately they have to go back.

This is a really cute and comfortable shoe. It is easy to take off and on with the velcro rose closure. I usually only wear a very supportive black New Balance shoe, but wanted something to wear when I am dressed up.

I cannot say enough! Wow, I have never owned a pair of Alegrias and they are amazing. I put them on and my feet were in heaven. They provide great arch support and cushion. I also love the cool "Rave on the Nile" colors.

Absolutely love these shoes, I just purchased my third pair. I work very long hours and these shoes stand true to comfort. I wouldn't purchase or wear anything else! I get so many compliments on these chunky shoes even the men like them! :)

These are extremely comfortable shoes. I got the blue Nile metallic print . while some may like it, it's just too iridescent for me. I am a nurse in critical care and don't feel that the outer material will be easy to clean. Also, although I like the Mary Jane style, I'd rather have more shoe over the top of my foot to protect my foot from spills. I will try the Seville instead.

So much better than Danskos! I love these...granted, I have large (size women's 10.5-11/42) and have seriously screwed up feet so take my review with a grain of salt; my feet are not the norm. But these are supportive without being super cushiony or overly structured and rigid (like Danskos). So worth a try!

This is my second pair of paloma. I get a million compliments on these. True to size. I like the ones with a patent finish. They look better. Smaller patterns play better on not making your feet look huge. I wear a size 8 and I do not have huge feet.

Most comfortable shoe I've ever worn! The length is true to size. I usually wear a wide, but can wear a medium in this shoe. Love this shoe!

I loved them but my hammer toes popped out. The cut is narrower than that of the the belle. I will order another pair of the belle.

These shoes were very comfortable out of the box, stylish and versatile. I can wear them with skirts or pants. And best of all they provide good support for being on my feet all day in my teaching job.

I have bought several pairs of these shoes in different colors. They do not hurt my feet and give comfort and support. I have a wide foot and these are true to size. I love this particular shoe and would recommend this shoes to all my friends!

I like them. I'm a stylist with a bad knee. That I had surgery on. I've gotten use to wearing nothing but s flip flop type shoe. And they where giving me nothing but pain from my feet to knees and then to back. A friend recommended I try these. First day walking the mall with them. I knew I had found the perfect shoe for these bad flat feet & knee!

My feet are extremely Wide and fat since I have gained a lot of weight. I have a really hard time finding shoes that actually fit. These Alegria Paloma are a perfect fit for me, which was such a relief. I recommend them to everyone who shares my problem.

Okay - I have never written a review for anything, but these shoes are wonderful. I have really messed up feet - bouts of plantar interosseous muscle strains, heel spurs, metatarsalgia, and recently I developed bursitis in the balls of both feet. These are the only shoes I have been able to wear without having to wear any additional metatarsal pads, Kinesio Tape, etc. as well. Arch support is great, toes can splay, the rocker feature is wonderful as well - I can even use these to actually go out and walk a few miles in! I wish Alegria made running shoes for when I am cleared to start running again! Just be aware that the different styles fit differently. This is the only style I can wear at the moment, so although I am sad that I am so limited in that aspect, I am still grateful to not be hobbling around in pain anymore. Dialing in the proper sizing can be tricky, especially since the different styles fit differently, but with Zappos' return/exchange policy, it's totally hassle free to find your perfect size!

I love these shoes! I got my first pair of Alegria Paloma shoes on May 1, 2014. I've worn them almost every day since then, and on numerous trips. I just got this style of Paloma and they fit the minute I put them on. I struck out with Dayna - they were too narrow for me, even in Wide. Belle was also too narrow in Regular. Zappos is so easy to use. You may have to try a few pairs to get the shoe you love, but Zappos makes it easy, and Alegria's are the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn! And they give so much support!

The color is fabulous.Comfortable? Oh yes, but the shoe itself kind of makes me look like I have duck feet! I just couldn't do it. When I asked my husband for his opinion, he said, um... no. I had to return them. For the cost they have to be cute AND comfortable.

I am loving these shoes. I have such a hard time finding shoes that fit because my feet seem to be an in between size. I also have very high arches which causes another problem when trying to find shoes. These have decent arch support. I ordered many shoes from Zappos (love their shipping policy) and these shoes fit the bill. I tried to wear Dansko shoes again, but their sizes really don't fit my feet so all of them went back. It was on my second Zappos order that I came across these shoes. They are comfortable and cute looking. I have worn them with dresses and pants. I am a kindergarten teacher and am on my feet all day. I got these in the mail last week, and wore them to work every single day this week. Great shoe and I will be searching this brand for more shoe choices.
