Customer Reviews LifeStride Solace

Stylish, and stays on thanks to the mid arch strap.

I have worn heels for years and this is the most comfortable pair -- bar none -- that I've ever worn. Funky-cute, too. The padding in the sole isn't huge, but there is some and it makes a difference. The elastic strap is sort of kicky-cute, and keeps your toes from sliding into the toe box so no next-day numbness! And, the shoe stays on when walking ... I can tell you, from experience, you can walk quickly and comfortably and happily in these shoes.

These were worn for HOURS of dancing at an event with no problems!! I am not a wearer of high heels, so I seldom find a pair I am comfortable in, but these were so comfortable with the added bonus of looking sleek and sexy!

Great design. Can wear to office or casual. Comfortable. Also, the elastic band not too high and not too low. It is not just outstanding but also cover part of my scars. Love it.

I haven't worn these shoes yet, however, when I tried them on, they fit like a glove, super comfy, even walked around the house a bit and they felt great. Also vey stylish.

I love this shoes but they cut into my foot across the toe area. Maybe because I have wide feet. I did buy another pair of LifeStride shoes that fit perfectly instead.

I love the material that goes over the top of my foot. It expands to accommodate my high arch and still maintains a very nice look. The heel is a perfect height and gives the shoe a nice delicate look.

I read the other comments about this shoe and almost did not order it. However, I am so delighted that I ordered the shoe. It fits my foot very well and is comfortable.

I love these. They get compliments every time I wear them AND are actually comfortable enough that I can survive an entire day without pain. Given the fact that I barely ever wear heels anymore, finding some that don't leave me extremely sad at the end of the day is a hard thing to do. I tend to be a bit hard on my shoes too and these have held up very well. I might have to get a backup pair for when I wear them out.

I can't say enough fabulous things about these shoes. I love them so much I am buying a second pair in taupe color to keep for when the ones I wear all the time start looking scruffy and picking up a pair in black as well. I own literally hundreds of pairs of shoes and most are multiple times more expensive than these. I tripped across them when I was looking for a moderate heel in a tan color for work. With all of the shoes in my closet, I go back to these again and again. Especially the taupe as it goes with everything, makes my leg look longer and leaner and I would be hard pressed to find another pump with heel that is more comfortable. I don't think that shoe exists. The sling back stays up, there are pads for the balls of my feet and the stretchy fabric across the foot does not dig in. Only thing more comfortable would be sneakers.

I'm a medium (B) width and this was a little tight on the left foot. Had I gotten a wide with it would have floated on my foot. The shoe, for me, is not an all day comfort shoe.

These are great for work! I put my wide feet and cankles in here and I look so cute in a pencil skirt. Highly recommend.

Cute shoe, but showed toe cleavage on left foot and pinched right foot!

These shoes are everything I was looking for: stylish, comfortable, with enough heel to add a few inches, but not so much that my feet ache by the end of the day. I love them. Wish they came in other colors.

Perfect shoe for older ladies needing an evening shoe with heel and style! Had to say good-bye to all my super good lookin' evening shoes because heel much too high for Grandma safety. This shoe is gorgeous and has the "pop" you need! Go for it girl!

I don't wear heals often and needed something for a half day event. These did the job and were both comfortable and stylish. My 20 something daughters were complimentary and even wanted to wear them themselves! They don't slip on my feet, had some padding for comfort and weren't terribly high to stand in for extended periods.

I ordered a Wide based on other reviews and they fit beautifully. Very comfortable and super cute.

Cute shoe! Love the fit!

I wanted to keep these shoes in the worst way, but they were a little short at the heel. Instead of returning I gave them to my sister and she loves them. The shoes are very sexy looking...just didn't work for my foot

Cute and comfy except front of toe cuts into top of foot. ??

I wasn't so sure about the style of these shoes when I pulled them out of the box and first tried them on. However, after wearing them all day at work walking back and forth across the corporate "campus" I was convinced and now I love them! The microfiber and elastic construction is odd at first but oh so comfy and I get a lot of compliments when I wear them. This week I wore them working an event where I was standing and walking on hard tile for a number of hours; I did not have one blister at the end of the day. I also like that the heel is not wrapped with vinyl which tends to get damaged easily. I don't wear a lot of closed toe shoes here in South Florida but these are becoming a favorite.

LOVE this shoe - very cute and quite comfortable. I always receive compliments when wearing them. I did need to reorder 1/2 size larger than my normal size.

I have never worn a more comfortable heel. LifeStride really figured it out with this one! I've never worn this brand before, I think typically the style is just too "old lady" for me (I'm 23), however this one was exactly what I was looking for and I could not be more satisfied. The flexible bottom, elastic band, and cushioned insole is outstanding. I also love the style. I am graduating RN school and needed shoes to wear with my pencil skirt for the pinning ceremony and I'm SO glad I came upon these!! I wear a 7.5 in most shoes, and that size fit me very well in this style. I also have a narrow foot with skinny ankles. Most shoes with an ankle strap look ridiculous on me because they are too big for my ankle. This elastic strap fits well, however if it was any bigger it would be too big. So, this shoe would still fit someone with wider ankles since it's elastic! Genius! I look forward to purchasing LifeStride again.

Very lovely shoe with a decent amount of padding. Just unusual enough to be more than a boring old pump. I found that the heel was a bit too high and narrow for me (I have some balance issues) so it must go back. :-(
