Although I bought these shoes locally I had to say that I love them. Finally had a chance to wear them and when I did I had to wear them all day and did some walking in them. I use orthotic inserts, but these shoes worked well without them for short distances. Heel is a little loose though. They are dressy and the bordo color is great. Very difficult to buy a dressy shoe that an orthotic fits into and I am very happy with these.

I love these shoes and have them in 3 different colors. Because I have very narrow heels and a wide forefoot, I need a shoe with a strap to keep my feet from sliding forward. These shoes meet that need. Also, I have plantar fasciitis and wear a custom made dress orthotic in them
with no problems. I will be buying more!

I needed a dressy but supportive and very stable shoe, in a particular color, and this Wolky is perfect! I ordered the 40M and the 41M, and the 40 fits perfectly (US size 9, which is my usual shoe size). The last seems made for my feet right out of the box. Zappos' price also made them affordable (and free shipping both ways, and 365-day return policy is much appreciated!). These shoes are definitely keepers. The "Passion" also looks elegant and works superbly in color with a full-length jewel-toned garnet lightweight silk velvet dress, which was the prime reason for choosing this shoe, and also looks great with a full-length dressy black skirt. The shoe is amazingly comfortable and stable, very well-made, and versatile with casual as well as dressy clothes, and is also made in Mexico, with a relatively low carbon footprint coming to the U.S. -- which matters a lot to me!

Very stylish shoes. Runs a bit too narrow where it matters most. Hated to send back.

I immediately found these shoes to be comfortable. They can be worn all day, with much walking. I stand by Wolky shoes, having more than a half dozen pair.

After trying and returning numerous pairs of shoes, I found these. And I love them! Besides being a really cool reddish color that goes with everything, they are super comfortable. I've developed a pain in my middle toes (probably from wearing thong-types too much this summer). Shoes that force pressure onto my toes hurt. These look cool and dressy and don't hurt my feet. And they stay on because of the straps. I did buy a size larger because the Wolky sandals I got are a bit short. Zappos service is super!

These are cute shoes. They are supportive and have an adjustable strap. They may be super comfortable for someone, but not me. There is not enough room in the toe box for my misshapen toes. Size 12 seemed a little short in the toes.

Excellent and well-made shoe (Mexico). I am a nurse on my feet 95% time and great at relieving plantar fascia because of the support and insole. Fits like a glove. Do need to go up 1 whole size. I alternate shoes between this pair and Alegria.

Excellent shoes for those who have large feet and want them to look smaller and neater. Very comfortable too. Excellent design.

These shoes are comfortable. They look good, too. Many shoes cut in over my bunions, but these just wrap around. There is great arch support. I wore these right away for several days of museum sight-seeing, and they were great. The appearance is very appropriate for my business casual workplace, and although I usually wear pants, I think that these would look good with some dresses or skirts. I chose the black brushed leather, which I like, and I think I need to come back and get brown or gray or another color. I do think they run just a touch on the small size. I usually wear European size 40 or American 9 or 9½. I tried these on in both 40 and 41, and 41 was the better fit.

In general, the Wolky Passion is an unusually comfortable and good-looking shoe. I have similar models by Ecco and Mephisto, and the Passion has a higher, roomier toe box than either, which is very kind to the toes if you're actually going to be walking for hours on European cobblestones. I love the straight (not curvy) last and find the support more than adequate as it is, although the shoe easily accepts the small orthotics I usually wear. The heel strike is more comfortable than that of the Mephisto, too. The only drawback -- and it is significant -- is that there's a little rise on the inner side of the shoe, exactly one inch behind where the ankle strap attaches under the inner ankle bone. I assume this is for style, kind of a racecar line or something? Anyhow, that rise makes the shoe too high at that point and quickly creates a really hot, sore spot that I think is going to be a problem for prolonged wear if it doesn't soften up, or if moleskin doesn't help. It is the one thing I think should be improved on the shoe.

I bought these shoes in black and brown suede because they are the most comfortable shoes for walking that I have ever had! Love them.

These are a lot cuter in person, just wish they had them in Wide. They do have that perfect feel for dancing, they slide and stay on your feet, and the suede hugs your feet comfortably. Sad to send them back.

This is a great shoe.I had a black pair and love them. Ordered these in brown.
Size is true and ordering from Zappos was very quick and easy.

Bought a pair locally, but want to say they are great. I meant to wear them at work only, but these are my dance shoes now, too. They slide just enough on the wooden floor, yet are stable for turns. Wish they came in more colors and designs!

These are very comfortable and well-made shoes. I have a pair in brown and black and they're nice enough to wear to work with pants or a skirt. I have trouble finding shoes that are comfortable all day, have good support, and are attractive. These are all three!

Although these are medium & I usually wear a wide, Wolky's medium have fit me in the past. These were too narrow in the toe box. Cute, but just not the right fit for my wide feet & short toes.

I love these shoes. They are well made from quality materials. I have a bunion, and the toe box is great. Good support, too.

I found these in a thrift store for $3.99! They fit great and are very comfortable. I have hammer toes, bunions, planters fasciitis and a ganglion cyst... so yeah, a few foot problems. I had no idea what a deal I got until checking them out through my beloved Zappos!!

I love Wolky Shoes. I own 2 pair of sandals, but these shoes were a little too narrow for me! Sending them back, but don't think they come in wide!

Incredibly soft leather. The real stuff that smells like leather is supposed to. Not like the cheap leather. Somewhat narrow fit for my ave foot. Some mild irritation where the strap rubs my foot. I will keep and trust the good quality leather will stretch and mold to my foot. Stylish shoes. Will look good with pants, jeans or skirts. Will wear year round.

I love these shoes and am ordering my third pair -- exceedingly comfortable and a good match for jeans/tee and casual skirts. One issue (and I'm willing to work around it because of the comfort) -- the leather is soft and thin, so after about 9 months of wearing, my big toe always works a small hole in the top. This has never happened with any other shoe.

Much more narrow in the front than my old Wolkys. Beautiful shoe, that sadly does not fit.

If the 43 was actually sized as a 43, these would have been keepers. Unfortunately; they're a full size too small. Since Wolky doesn't make a larger size, I'll have to look elsewhere. Wolky, don't tease me like this! I'm disappointed.
