Customer Reviews LifeStride Parigi

These have great a cushion and the heel isn't too high. I work at a large company and have to walk a half a mile from the parking lot to my office plus walking around all day. So these shoes are functional work shoes.

I could not figure out the appropriate sizing on these! I did 3 returns and still did not keep a pair. The wides were ok, but not great. The double wides were SO Wide they slipped off. Tough to order dressy shoes online when you have wide feet!

Nice shoe but narrow toe box

Attractive shoe, but too small for me due to my RA. Thanks for the quick shipment, but I have to return the shoes.

These seemed to hug my foot just right, except for the very top of the back of the heel that curved in a tiny bit too much and dug into that nerve. It would probably have stretched out with wear, but 1) I need more arch support and there wasn't room enough to add an insert, and 2) there's a little too much shine, which makes the shoe look like plastic as opposed to leather.

Looking for comfortable navy heels for work. These look nice (if you are looking for a traditional pump) and feel stable when I walk, but when I stand, I can tell they don't have enough cushioning for a full day wear--and there isn't room for a gel pad on the ball of the foot. Back they go and try again.

Don't like the style. The toe box is short and looks an old lady shoe. Blush Vinci color is nice though.

I think these would have been comfortable except that they are cut a little low at the toe and cut right across my bunions. Had to send them back.

They were ok. Kinda cheap. The Naturalizer Michelle's were better quality and more comfortable. Sent them back

After reading all the glowing reviews for Parigi, I was really looking forward to these shoes being the end of my search for comfortable heels. But I was sadly disappointed. They are great looking heels but fit in toe area odd. Toe box is adequate but the shape is all wrong...at least for my toes, anyway. Must continue my search.

These were (and still are) so disappointing. When I used the Zappos mobile app to search for a heel, I specified the following: -heel height -color -width (wide!). I read all these wonderful reviews about how people "can wear them all day long, so great!, beautiful!, yadayadayada..." I was excited to finally (Finally! After 30 years!) get a beautiful-looking pair of professional heels that can be worn in my corporate office, but still chic enough (patent nude) to be worn out, if needed. I ordered my usual size (8) in width W (C). When I received the shoe, I was disappointed to learn that the width was in fact not wide at all, and felt like all the other generic pairs of heels that I've bought straight out of a department store without the ability to choose the width. I should have gone with my gut instinct and returned the shoe, but I went against my better judgement and figured they would wear-in and that they'd become wider. Instead what I got was my toes (excruciatingly uncomfortable by the way) stretching the material on each side of the toe area of the shoe, leaving the actual point of the shoe in its original place, which makes for a ridiculous looking thing if you can visualize it. It's too late for me to return them now, and I have most definitely wasted the money. I'm on the hunt for a new pair of both nude and black, which is a shame because if this shoe was in fact wide as it claimed to be, I would have purchased another pair in black. I'm going to try Walking Cradles next, so just a suggestion for those looking for Wide!) Everything else about it was great...the rubber grip on the bottom, the style and look, the heel-height. The width makes or breaks it though, if you're in the same boat and know what I mean...and it's definitely broken as far as the Parigi is concerned. So sad about it.

Had read reviews that this was a moderately comfortable shoe--even for a few people with bunions. Unfortunately, these wreaked havoc on my feet. I only wore them around the house for a couple minutes before I new the purchase was doomed. Really disappointed because the shoe is classic. Would be perfect for almost any outfit!

These shoes are just ok, not the most comfortable. The footbed Is not cushioned real well, my feet hurt. I am wearing a little each day to break them in, I have two weeks. I am disappointed in lifestride they are usually a pretty good and comfortable shoe. If they don't feel better in a couple of days I will return them to the store.

Unfortunately, I was very disappointed with these shoes. I ordered them based on all the great comfort reviews, and wanted a small heel. They are pretty shoes, but they are SO uncomfortable. I have narrow feet and even with the regular size, they tear up my toes. I thought maybe I just needed to break them in (as I usually find with heels) and after wearing them about 3-4 times, my feet are killing me after a few hours. I don't even want to wear them out anymore so I feel like a wasted that money.

These are pretty. I wear a 12W but would need a 13 in these. They have a very short toe box. Too bad!

Like the look but the shoe runs small. I normally take an easy 11 M and ordered wide to be safe (since I'll be on my feet all day in these). Wide was still too tight.

Eh. I have a bad bunion so I was hoping I could last one night in this shoe. Nope. The toe box was wide enough for my bunion but I ended up with 2 blisters on each foot. They were comfy to wear in my house for a couple of hours but I guess I didn't test them long enough.

Got these shoes in 8WW, but they weren't wide enough for my feet. They looked modern & pretty, which is nice for pumps (not grandma looking at all). Also has a nice neutral nude color to go with any outfit, but I just wished they were wider, most especially in the toe area. My pinky toes kept rubbing uncomfortably on the sides. In less than 1 hour my feet were really killing me!

I normally wear an 8 1/2 in regular width shoes, but when I am lucky enough to find wide width shoes, I can go down to a 7 1/2. However, I have a pair of LifeStride's Olin in 8 1/2 W, and they fit pretty well but pinch just a little, so I thought that these in an 8 1/2 WW would be perfect, maybe even a little too big. They are actually very, very tight! I would definitely recommend sizing up on these. Very nice looking shoe, but not nearly as wide as I had hoped.

W was in no way a wide shoe, can usually wear wide, couldn't even get my foot in. Pretty shoe, too bad it didn't fit.

Very disappointed...the shoe felt comfortable when I tried it on, but when I wore it, my feet hurt within a short time. I sing in the Praise Team at church and am on my feet for most of the service. I will not be able to wear these again and now that I have worn them, I can't return them.

So I love these shoes. They are even more gorgeous in person than in the picture. They are great for dressing up or down but the shoes are not true to size, at least in my experience. I usually buy a 10WW or 10½WW but since these shoes do not come in that size I ordered a 10WW and I literally could not fit in the shoes. I like them so much that I am giving them one more chance and ordered an 11WW I will let you know how that goes. I also got the tender taupe color and it is just as light as the picture and very nice as well.

I'm looking for a comfortable and cute pump to wear to work, but alas, this is not it. I usually wear a 10 or 10.5 W. I ordered the 10W, and the length was all right, but the area around the base of my toes was way too narrow. I wish I didn't have to return these, because they're very adorable. They're super shiny, made my feet look smaller, and the heel itself is a great width - not so narrow you might fall over, but not so wide it has that orthopedic look.

I felt like a little girl wearing my mothers shoes. Cute looking if they had fit. Will be exchanging for a full size down. There was a full CM between my heel and the back of the shoe.
