Customer Reviews Cobb Hill Petra

Eh so so, but considering the given choices out there they are decent. I have plantar faciatis and halfway through the day my heels hurt really bad. Kinda wish I would of went a size up to add an insert in. Time will tell how these turn out. Only wore them a couple of times so far.

this shoe felt good, had enough arch support, and like so many shoes I get, there is no heel slippage. After trying on 6 shoes from Zappos ( thank you for your amazing service ! ), I missed the cushiness in the ball of the foot, that I liked in some of the other shoes. I have trouble finding shoes that fit well. This fit fine, and the strap is adjustable, but they just didn't strike me as AMAZING ! They were out of the black so ordered the pewter, and I actually liked it. Is is dark enough, and neutral enough that could be used in place of black, or other colors. Sending back, but would not discourage others to give this shoe a try.

Shoe is comfortable for me with a thicker sock. This is because I have to buy a 6.5 medium instead of Narrow to accommodate foot issues. I have been wearing them around the house and found very comfortable.

Comments on Fit: I have always found it hard to find shoes that fit; now that I have bunions, it is even harder. I have learned to keep track of which size fits me in which brand, but I have not worn Cobb Hill shoes before. In hopes that I could find some helpful info, I searched for size comparisons between Cobb Hill, Clarks and Hotter with no luck. In case it might help other folks with the same question, I can say that I wear Clarks 8.5 M, Hotter 8W and European 39. So I ordered this shoe in both 8.5 M and 8W to see which size fits me. The Cobb Hill is a very good fit in 8W. My other fit issue is arch support; these do not really have much arch support. General Comments: Although the 8W fits very nicely, they just don’t look good on me. My criterion for keeping items ordered is “would I buy this if I saw it in a store?” In this case, I don’t love this shoe enough to justify the expense so have decided to return both pairs of Petra. But I do LOVE Zappos! The delivery was amazingly fast and the excellent service policies mean I can take a chance on something without seeing it first.

Not quite as comfortable as other Cobb Hill shoes I've purchased. A bit narrower in the toe area. I've worn these for several weeks now and they feel the same as day one. I was hoping they would provide all day comfort but they could be a bit better in that department. It might just be this style.

After wearing them all day at work, constantly walking and moving, my feet feel great. I was skeptical when they had arrived but it turns out they are actually quite great.

Stylish, mostly comfortable shoe except for strap chafing on one foot. Shoe is one of the rare narrow shoes that actually fits.

The color was true to the computer screen, style is cute, but pretty stiff and the shoe was scuffed-looking as if it had been worn, even though the soles appeared to look new.

I like the shoe overall, but it has an uncomfortable bubble like area in the center.

It is cuter online. It was a heavier shoe than I wanted.

Fit was as I expected however the shoe material seemed cheap and stiff. I have older versions of this shoe which are higher quality. Disappointed.

My size is 10 1/2 the shoe didn't come in my size . The 11 was too large.

I was expecting a much more comfortable shoe. The footbed was not soft enough and I have to return them.

The top part of shoe cut into the side bone of my big toe.

These shoes are attractive, nicely made, and potentially very comfortable, but I just couldn't get the fit right. My usual size is 6 1/2 medium, and that's what I ordered first, but they were a bit tight. They weren't really uncomfortable in a brief try-on, but they squished the flesh of the foot unattractively at the front. So I ordered 6 1/2 wide. Th width was roomy and comfortable, and no more squishing, but they were absurdly long, perhaps a full size too long. More room than needed at the toe and a good 1/3" gap at the back. I'm trying to decide whether to give 6 wide a go, or just give up at this point.

I wanted to like these, but had 2 issues. First, the shoes were not the same size (though they were both marked 10W). One was comfortable, and one was too small. And the one that was too small was on my smaller foot! The straps on both were too long.

I liked the shoes and did some walking around in the house with them on......as usual my bunionette on my left foot felt the pressure from the stitching in that location. Otherwise I would have kept them. Again Zappos thank you for your outstanding service.

Love the pewter color it's more of a distressed black with a hint of silver. Goes well with almost everything. The shoe runs wide, I had to get heel grips to make the narrow fit.

Shoe runs wide, length is fine. Looks great with nylons or no socks. But wearing socks ruins the look of the shoe.

This shoe is cute, and the extra wide fit really well around the ball of my foot, where the foot is actually wide, but I had the typical problem with wide shoes in that the heel was slipping all over the place. Also, the shoe felt very "minimalist" under my foot with virtually no cushioning or feeling of support. I had a couple of similar styles here from Clarks to try on at the same time, so could really feel the difference in comfort. I had to return these.
