Customer Reviews Cobb Hill Petra

Although these were attractive, they felt like they had no arch support at all. Disappointing.

Bothered my bone above big toe. Very disappointed in shoe, not soft leather, lining not leather anymore and soles are horrible! I read they were no longer rubber, but didn’t expect to be hard as a brick. Not comfortable to walk on at all.

so hard to shop in stores as my feet are so wide...both pairs I ordered from zappos recently fit first try!! Thank you for offering multiple width options!!

7.5 size, perfect! very comfortable. I bought them wide (D).

I have worn out a pair of these shoes in navy, absolutely love them and they are so cute and so comfortable. I ordered a brown pair but am returning them for a black pair as I wear black more often. I get a 9.5 size to accommodate thick wool sox for the Wyoming wintertime (my basement is cold!).

I loved these shoes. I did not want to return them, however, I had to because I have fat pad atrophy and peripheral neuropathy in the bottoms of both feet and, therefore, have to wear thick socks for comfort. The thick socks made the shoes too tight. These are wonderful shoes. Lightweight, soft leather, and very attractive.

I have a size 11 foot. I also have had previous bunion removal surgery so my foot is very sensitive to pressure on the sides. No squeezing. I love this brand. They just fit my foot from the get go. No break in period needed. Very good arch support also. I bought these to work a retail job, on my feet for 5-8 hours in a shift with no sitting allowed! Maybe not the most high fashion style but I'm past that. They look fine with pants.

2 1/2years ago I bought the Pearl in almond and black in a 7. I wanted more now but they don’t have that style. I also decided to get 1/2 size larger. Well Petra runs short and tight compared to Pearl even though they are very similar. I had to bump up to an 8 and they look biggish on my feet. Online the brown looks more like my old almond color but they aren’t - they are pecan brown. But I’ve worn the old ones so much that I will keep these anyway. I will have to unfasten the strap to put on which is disappointing. I liked that the Pearl didn’t require use my hands.

The fit was tighter than other Cobb Hill shoes I've purchased, but I decided to keep them and break them in. After reading the answer about what the upper construction was, I knew leather would stretch. I wore them today, and about noon my feet were soaking wet and stayed that way until I was able to take them off at home. My feet were shot today and uncomfortable, I couldn't figure it out. My feet by the end of the day, because the upper didn't give when I walked. So I looked in the shoe to read what the upper was made of when I got home. It states MAN MADE! both the upper and sole. They are cheap plastic shoes. Zappos reply to this question was- Question Exactly what part of the shoe is leather and exactly what part is synthetic? Best Answer I apologize for the confusion, these will have a full grain leather upper with a synthetic lining, none of the upper is synthetic! Jesica from Zappos on October 1, 2019 :-(

Perfection can not be improved.

I love these shoes and have bought them in three colors now! I usually wear either size 7.5 or 8. Ordered these in 7.5 and they fit perfectly. They hold up well and are comfortable even on days when I'm on my feet a lot or walking a couple of miles.

No. The finish is weird and not in a good way. Would absolutely consider getting them in another finish; they were comfy.

These shoes fit well, provide good support, and accomodate my orthotics (in other words, they are pretty much perfect). However, the Velcro on one of them has already come unstitched from the strap, after about six months' of use. I think I can fix it with superglue, fortunately.
