Customer Reviews Alegria Paloma

I love my new Alegria Paloma shoes! According to the reviews I read on your site, I ordered a size down because these shoes ran large, but I did not find that to apply to me. I ended up ordering my usual size (39) and they are as comfortable as can be. The arch supports are outstanding, the shoes are beautiful. I love the velcro adjustable closure.

These shoes are very comfortable, and look great, not clunky. I am a half size and found ordering one size up worked better for me. Zappo's service was great and the shoes arrived the day after I ordered, in time for my business trip.

Love these shoes! They are even prettier in person. I bought them to go with brown, but they match pretty much anything. Very comfortable, too. They are a great addition to my Alegria collection.

Beautiful shoe. Defiantly not for older or others that are at risk for falling. The sole is narrower than the shoe and I turned my ankle falling and breaking a rib. My nurse daughter loves this shoe forwork.

I order and send back many pairs of shoes. Do to an ankle and foot issue. But not these I actually ordered a second pair. They took some getting use to but once I did I loved them. Fit is good and no ankle pain. I feel they are worth the money.

Super comfortable and cute! It took me a little bit to get used to the rocker outsole without tripping. I bought the Black Magic and love the silver stitching around the sole. The hook and loop velcro closure makes these really easy to put on and adjust if your feet swell sometimes. Would definitely buy more from this brand.

I am a teacher who is on her feet all day long. I have had a bunion surgery that did not heal properly; I also have arthritis in both toes and a flat foot. These shoes are like heaven. They are soft, comfortable, and cute, too. I get compliments every time I wear them. I am so happy to have found a shoe that works for my feet!

Really cute shoe, comfy to wear but not as comfy as another version of the strapped Mary Jane, because it is tighter in the top area of the toe box (towards the ankle). I really do enjoy them and love the tiny bit of sparkle in the patent. Great for lots of cobblestone street walking as they are very stable.

These are so quirky and yes even comfortable. I needed a padded sole to cushion my foot and these fit the bill. I wish the leather was just a little softer but the fit. Keep in mind they are designed to be a little loose but not so loose they fall off. Fits true to size.

So far so good. Comfortable out of box. Brown magic color a good neutral and has cute gold metallic stitching not so obvious from the picture. I have a high instep and tendonitis and these shoes seem to have enough support so I can avoid using orthotics. Fit is true to size. Wide toe box which I like.

This shoe is great if you have foot problems (per my MD, really good if you have rheumatoid arthritis) and it's cute, too. I usually go 1/2 size up to fit my orthotics; in this case I stayed with my normal size and the orthotics fit fine.

Cozy cardi! This is a rather boxy, cozy cardigan. I'm 5 foot 8 and while I have a tiny waist, I am broad in the shoulders so tend to automatically get large in cardigans, but the large on this was HUGE... I returned it and got a medium, but I could have gone down to a small I bet. Still, very cozy and I like it. Covers the butt and front so you can wear it respectably ;) with leggings. It is a waffle-weave, so it isn't luxuriously soft or anything, but it isn't coarse. The waffle weave also means it isn't overly warm for a sweater of this volume. If this was cashmere or something, it would be unwearable for me unless I was in the arctic. :) It has held up so far to being manhandled by me on many dog walks with a crossbody bag across it. So far, it has laundered well and still looks new. I've had it about 6 weeks and it's gone through the wash a few times at this point.

Cute shoes, and very comfortable with one personal exception. All Alegrias pinch my second and third toes because of the toebox curve of their shoes. I had a double bunionectony years ago, and my big toes came away a good half inch shorter than my second and third toes. The same Dr. put casts on both legs up to my knees for six weeks! Anyway, I cannot wear these cute shoes comfortably. There's a name for the second toe being longer...other than "bossy." If all of your toes are in proportion, you will probably adore this brand. You will have fun wearing them. Maybe I'll hang them on the wall and admire them as works of art. I still have bunions! Cheers! Zappos gets my vote. It's hard shopping, waiting and returning and more waiting. Zappos takes the pain out of the returns with free shipping. Thank you Zappos!

I love these shoes and may need more! I was worried they wouldn't be flexible enough to be comfortable but they are great and the Velcro strap is really nice.

These shoes are cute and comfortable. The only thing is when I wear them without socks the sides bother my ankles. But other then that they are amazing.

My second pair of Alegria shoes, though the first ones are thongs. I decided to try these in a 9 regular and wide as I have a bad bunion on one foot. The wide width is perfect.They are so comfortable and kind of "ugly cute" if that makes sense. I think I will be wearing these forever - they are a quality product.

Really love these shoes! Not only are the attractive but they are also comfortable. I like them so much I have several pairs. No hesitation in recommending. Give them a try, you won't be sorry.

I have mad love for this brand of shoes. They are the only shoes I can wear without an orthotic. I have recently developed plantar fasciitis in one foot, along with a bone spur, and neuromas in both feet. These are the only brand of shoes that feel perfect for every problem I have. I did order these from Alegria's site because I wanted the pewter black tumble in a wide option, and I couldn't get them on here, but my other Alegria's were purchased on Zappos. I wear an 8-8.5 and I have the Bella in a 38 and I feel that its a tad short, esp with socks, so I ordered the 39. They are looser with bare feet but perfect with socks, esp thick winter socks. I love the color too, because I can wear them with anything. This is my fourth pair of Alegrias and I hope to buy more! I prefer a mary jane style because I have a very high arch and sometimes regular shoes can be hard to put on or feel snug, and I can custom fit a mary jane. The velcro stays put as well with plenty of room.

I love Alegrias! I spent a lot of time finding the right black shoe for work. Went and tried on many styles at stores. I have the Debra style ones but they were the wrong color. I found this Mary Jane style to be the best for me because I walk and stand a lot at my job. The strap really holds my feet in the shoe very well! And I come home from work each day with happy feet! There is nothing worse then having aching feet after a long day on them! These shoes are a great investment! You can buy new insoles after a time and it gives you a whole new shoe!

Fabulous, wonderful, quality, cute and great price all wrapped up in one shoe. I have diabetic neuropathy and these shoes are perfect. I like to be on trend and take great care in my selection of clothes. I bought these in black, brown and a patent black print. I wear them with maxi skirts, jeans, crop and ankle pants etc. If you are looking for sexy these are not the shoe. These are absolutely funky cute.

These are great! I have haa a ton of compliments and if I didn't have to take them off, I wouldn't. I'd love to buy more in other colors...over time I will. The footbed is amazing and replacable, which is a plus! I wear a 11 generally in womens shoes, the 41 is plenty big. They do stretch a bit over time. I thought they were a bit snug on one foot when I got them, but with just a week or so of wear (and not uncomfortable wear), they are perfect!

Love, love, love these Alegria's! I have had a couple of foot surgeries, and these shoes are so comfortable. I get compliments on them a lot!

Ordered a pair of multi-colored flowered Alegria Paloma's and liked them very much! They were comfortable, supportive, and very cute on my size 11 W feet. For some reason, this pair was not wide enough even in the wide width? Would keep except for that.

Working in a hair salon, standing on your feet all day. These shoes are very comfortable. My feet don't hurt after 8 hours. Love them!

I got the charcoal patent Alegria Paloma with the rhinestone skulls. When they first arrived they were true to size as far as length and width but very tight across the top of my foot and cut into the back of my feet along the back edge. I installed some padding to the back and that took care of that problem and continued use has stretched the tops. My work day is about 12 hours where I spend about 8 hours straight on my feet so was looking for comfort and other reviews convinced me to give these a try. I have worn them for about 48 hours now (12 hours at a time). They no longer cause pain to wear and are just beginning to be comfortable. At the end of the day my feet feel pretty good.
