Love these shoes. Since they are open, a little dirt can get into the shoes, but I foresaw that and they are easy to clean. Comfy and not hot to wear on a summer day.

Love these shoes but they are one half size too small. Needed to order them again as going on a trip and they are exactly what I was looking for. Genuine soft leather, well made. My husband even mentioned what good quality shoe they were. You get what you pay for and these are worth the price.

I ordered my size and they fit perfectly! Be prepared for tons of compliments when you wear them! I have 2 pair and have ordered a third. Love the feel and look of these shoes!

First and foremost, this shoe is a gorgeous cream color. Fit is true to size (was surprised to find that the interior lining is butter soft) and the heel is slightly weathered in color-which really compliments the look of the shoe. I received many (many!!) compliments on them. Now I want them in all colors!:) Highly pleased with my purchase. Cost is a little high, but the craftsmanship is impeccable.

I wish they had these is a 42! I am normally a Women's US Size 10, I tend to buy a 42 in EU sizes as they always run smaller than the size charts indicate I should buy, since they dont go up to 42 I ordered the 41 and they are 1/2 size small. Even though my toes are a little crowded at the point, I'm keeping them. The leather is like butter, and I think will only get better after a few wears. They look exceptionally cute on. I can wait to pair them with a pair of torn boyfriends jeans and a cute blazer.

These shoes are so beautiful! As most reviews have stated, the whiskey taupe is a lot lighter than pictured and more resembles the brown color pictured. In regard to size, these shoes are super tricky. I usually wear a 9 and I purchased the black Mount Blanc Free People sandals last summer in a 39 and they fit perfect. A 39 in this flat was slightly too small. I have ordered the half sizes in Free People shoes and there is basically no difference between the 39 and the 39.5. I sized up to a 40 in this shoe in the whiskey taupe and it was much to big. I then ordered several size 40s in this shoe to size compare and each pair fit slight different but I did end up with a shoe that fit well after trying 5 different pairs (which is how much I wanted these to work). I am not sure if it is just the whiskey taupe color that fits so differently between the individual pairs of shoes of the same size, but i would recommend ordering several (thanks to Zappos great return policy) to get the right fit and leather grain (as this can vary dairy drastically as well).

The shoes are beautiful and exactly what I wanted. The color is a little different from the picture, a less vibrant yellow than the image here and on the free people website, but it's natural leather; colors and wear will vary. I'm usually a solid size 7 in most shoes, with my right foot being slightly larger than my left. With these I ordered a 37, the right foot felt slightly tight but the left was a perfect fit. I know leather stretches but I'm not sure if I want to struggle through the stretch. I'm considering exchanging them for a 37.5 but I also don't want them to stretch out then be stuck with shoes that are too big.So for now they're just waiting in the box waiting for me to make an executive decision. Either way, I will end up with a pair.

The "Taupe" color is not! In my opinion it is a "Whiskey" or "Saddle".

Love these shoes. I usually wear a 36 but my heel walks right out of the show ... for both of my feet (even larger of my two feet). The 35.5 seems like a great fit length wise but the toe box is squishes my toes a bit. I haven't decided if I want to chance them stretching enough to fit comfortably (these are expensive shoes). And, I never have a problem with the width of shoes for my toes. I wear a medium / regular width shoe. I'm sure it's because these super cute shoes are pointy.

I tried the 39.5 and 40 and were both snug. I wear a 9.5 and have a narrow foot. I sent them back. A little too pointy as well, which made my feet look big. They're cute on smaller feet!

I have these shoes in another color, size 40. I originally ordered another size 40 and when they arrived, they felt much smaller. I then ordered a 40.5. When they arrived, they felt much larger. These shoes, although very stylish, are not consistent in size from one shoe to the next. I will be returning all sizes.

Love these booties!! So cute and comfy. They look great with jeans and skirts. They are really comfortable even with no socks. No break in period. Dress up and dress down outfits. Really unique. I get tons of compliments on them. The color is a very light gray but works with everything.

I normally wear a size 11 and can usually fit in european sizes 41-42 but, had to return the first pair in black as they were a bit too small at 41 &1/2. Because the 42 wasn't available in black, I ordered a 42 in "grey". They arrived lightening fast and were much easier to get on and felt more comfortable. They're not grey, however. They are more neutral, light tan which I really like and, are more apt to go with just about everything. The leather is soft and beautiful. Lots of compliments. Zappos is the best!!!

Just as wonderful as I imagined! I really like the whiskey (cognac) color, and would like a few other colors as well. Comfortable, stylish, minimalist, boho, and polished all at the same time. My new favorite shoe!

Love them.... the colors are definitely lighter as others noted. I am a year round flip flop gal but as I get older my feet are get cold now. These are perfect for no sock person. They are stylish and got compliments the first time I wore them.
