Customer Reviews Clarks Ashland Bubble

Shoe met all the expectations. I could have used a 3E but few manufacturers make very wide shoes for women and even fewer make stylish 3E shoes. It'll stretch, I'm sure.

I wanted this shoe so badly. The look is beautiful, and I was hoping to be able to wear it with jeans during Florida's short winter time. In tennis shoes I buy a 10 and always search for a wide width. I first ordered a 10W, and it was huge. So I returned that shoe and ordered a 9.5W. It was still too big. The length was ok, but I am afraid to order just a straight 9.5. The widest part is the ball of the foot, and too many times I've purchased shoes thinking they will feel ok, only to realize after wearing for 4 hours that they are too tight. So I will continue looking for another loafer.

This is the second pair of Ashland Bubble shoes I have purchased. The first pair I ordered in navy with contrasting white stitching. Clark’s navy color in leather, is too light. I had a cobbler paint the shoes a darker navy color (which eradicated the contrasting stitching.) This time I ordered the shoes in black, which has matching black stitching. The shoes are cute with a skirt, they’re pretty comfortable, and run true to size. I wear an 8W. I need the width at the front of my shoes to avoid crowding my painful feet (have RA.) The down side of this for me is my narrower heel, which means the shoe is too loose at the back, right out of the box. Almost all shoes fit me like this, not just this style, and not just with Clarks. I just deal with it, as I can’t stand having my forefoot hurting. But, I have reordered- so that is evidence that I enjoy this shoe. It comes in many attractive colors.

Had been looking for a pair of nice dressy loafers for a while when I found these. The style is awesome just what I was looking for and affordable too. They were comfortable as soon as I put them on no break-in required. They are lightweight and not heavy. They have a good arch support. I can walk in them all day and my feet still feel good. Width is fine other than they seem to be a bit wide in the heel area but it is ok. Overall a great shoe from Clarks.

I really like these shoes, and had to order the size nines to get the right width. They were too long, but I put in a heel grip and a new insole.

Generally nice shoes which felt and the color i needed - not sure what's happened to Zappos next day delivery policy - my shoes took about 5 days to arrive.

Purchased a 7.5 narrow and walked right out of them. They look very nice and could be worn for work or pleasure, but too wide for me.

I am a teacher so i needed a shoe that was comfortable and fashionable for me to stand all day. Comfortable shoe, but fits a little tight across the top of foot where the bow is.

I am happy to have found a low flat nice looking shoe for work. It is hard to find a true WW. I would give it 5 stars but have noticed that the front of the shoes are looking a bit stretched out and not keeping their shape. I hope this does not continue because I really like the shoe.

Shoe length was true to size, width was a bit greater than expected. Nice looking shoe.

I put these shoes on and wore them all day with no problems. They felt good on my feet.I would buy them again

Good-looking shoe, and comfortable. However my feet are wide at the front and normal width heel, so these tend to slip at the heel. Alas, the shoes are going back. I have to stick with mary jane and/or tie-on shoes so the shoe stays on my foot when I do all the walking I do. Zappos customer service is wonderful.

I originally bought the 9.5, my true size. They were way to wide, my foot would not stay in. I ended up with the 9's. They are a little narrow in the heel but after wearing them for a day they loosened up enough not to feel uncomfortable. They are super cute and well made. Not a lot of arch support but not flat.

The pair I ordered, (the brown multi), while I bought them for fit (and they are terrific), did not look as great in person as they did in the photo. The photo represents a depth of colors which is not true to the actual pair that arrived. But, since I bought them to wear with jeans, and fit was the bigger concern, I can live with the discrepancy.

Everything fit as advertised - length, width were just right. The material is a little different, but that adds some uniqueness to the shoes.

Really comfy shoe and 8.5 Narrow fit perfectly. I'm usually a regular 8.5 with slightly narrow feet, but Clark's shoes run wider than usual so I had to order narrow. I only gave 4 stars overall because the brown multi looks quite different IRL than the appearance online. Therefore I purchased Tan to see which color I like best.

Nice looking shoe. Had to return the wide, which I usually wear. The medium width still felt a little big but decided to keep them and wear with light weight socks.

I seem to fall somewhere between a 6.5 and a 7. I originally purchased the 6.5 but it was too tight. The 7 fit perfectly. Very comfortable shoe.

I take a regular width but am usually comfortable on the just-slightly-wider end of that range; the toe box in these was just so wide and the heel flapped but was also somehow too narrow at the same time. Size otherwise was spot on in 5.5 M. I have high arches and felt the cushioning and arch support could be even better in these.

I have plantar fasciitis and the heel of this shoe seems to drop immediately causing pain. The shoe itself fit well, and looked wonderful.

I ordered size 10. That's what my foot measures. These were slightly big and slipped in the back. Nice shoes but not as comfortable as I would like them to be. The whole experience with Zappos was excellent. No shipping fees or return fees. Arrived in a timely manner. Ease of making the return easy was great. Thanks Zappos even though I was unable to keep the shoes!

Very nice style and seemed comfortable however, the shoe was too wide.

I always buy 8 1/2 extra wide in Clarks shoes. For the shoes, they were long enough, but pinched my toes on the side of the shoe, as opposed to being too short. They were very nice looking shoes, and if the size had worked, I think they would’ve been extremely comfortable. They seem to be well-made and nice looking shoes. Suitable for work with dress slacks, but maybe considered more of a casual shoe. I wish they would’ve worked out, but I feel like ordering larger shoes in this model wouldn’t work. But I will continue to be loyal to Clark’s! And of course I’m loyal to Zappos! Zappos is the only place I buy my shoes from now.

Took me three tries before finding a size that fit- 1 size smaller than my usual size. The width is great in the toe box. These shoes definitely are wider in the heel as other reviewers said, but still ok for me.

Very comfortable. It is a little wide in the heel but I have a terrible time finding shoes that fit, so I will keep them and get some sort of heel insert. I wear a 5 1/2 and I needed a pair of flats that I can wear with mid-weight socks in the winter. These fit my feet with socks but would probably be too big with bare feet.
