Customer Reviews Born Malena

This is a nice shoe, fits true to size when I first tried it on. There was a stain/ spot on the toe of the shoe. Liked them but new shoes should look new. Otherwise I would have kept them even though the color was a bit drab ( wine colored ). I am debating reordering this shoe in another color.

This is my third pair of Born Malena, so that should say it all. Comfortable right out of the box.

It ran a little large I am a true 6.5 but had to go down to a size 6. These are so comfortable I'm buying them in two more colors!

Burgundy looks more brown in person, otherwise a great shoe

This loafer is super soft feeling against my feet which is great. Slight rubbing at the achilles, but other than that super comfy. A little plain looking, but will suffice for the office. Planning on ordering more.

Perfect fit and so comfortable right out of the box. I love these shoes and have worn them a lot in the short time that I've had them. Look great with jeans and I couldn't be more pleased with how comfortable they are.

Love These! Ordered in a light tan. They look like a more expensive driving moc (tods). I tend to order a 9 or a 9.5 wide shoe depending on the style. After reading reviews I ordered a size 9 and they fit great with a little wiggle room. They look great with jeans or trousers. I think I will happily wear these for years to come.

Great shoe. Just too large.

I feel fortunate, since none of the faults which other reviews encountered were present in my shoes. These are soft and flexible and comfortable. I bought the burgundy ones, which in my view is a lovely color for fall. The rubber soles are non-slip. I haven't worn them yet, I'm still in sandals and the weather is HOT. I expect to get a lot of use out of them in the next few months, after which I shall be tucking my feet into boots.

This review is incomplete because I had ordered an 8.5 and the pair I received (in an 8.5 box) was actually a 6.5. I am returning it for the obvious reason. Analysis of the shoe is that it is a very pleasant taupe color, a driver's shoe style, however, if it is like the other pair in red, that I had ordered, then it is too tight for my foot in the toe box. I normally wear a size 9B. Someone had suggested that the shoe was 1/2 size too big, thus the recommendation was to order it 1/2 size smaller. If it is like the red, then 9 is the size I would need, but the toe box will probably be too small. I will try it at a local store so I won't have to return another pair.

Love the shoes!!!

Beautiful and soft, but narrow at the widest part of the foot. Returning and trying a bigger size—or wider if it exists....

Extremely comfortable - I love wearing these shoes! Great looking, too, and appear to be quite well made. The tan leather is very pretty and so soft. I'm looking to buy another pair in a different color. I seriously am wearing them every day because I like them so much. Best shoe purchase I've made in a long time.

These are beautiful, soft leather shoes. They are so so comfortable. After reading reviews, I bought these, and a second pair, 1/2 size down. I usually wear a 7 1/2 but I bought a 7 and it fits wonderfully.

Very comfortable loafer. Just too pink for what I need. Fit is perfect and they are so springy. Someone who needs a dark pink loafer will be very happy. Zappos has wonderful service.

Once again I am not disappointed in a Born shoe or in Zappos. Within 28 hours the these shoes were at my house and they are adorable and fit great. I did order 1/2 size smaller than i usually do. But these will be my new "go to" flats. Super comfy!! Love them!!

To be fair, I have tried these on, but have not actually worn them for any length of time. They are, however, very comfortable and cute. I tried four different brands of this style, and this was the one I decided to keep.

After ordering a 7...too big. I finally received the 61/2 M. ( The order got lost.) Sent the 7 back, still no credit. Love the shoe.

Fit pretty well, loved the blue color and quality workmanship. Great shoe for daily wear

It was a little too wide

I loved the look of these shoes. Took reviewers’ advice and ordered a half size down. The shoes were a tiny bit too snug, but if I’d exchanged for my regular size I think they would have been too loose. Returned them.

Need a size 10.5! Love these shoes, but the 10 is too small and the 11 is too big. I kept the 11's hoping they would work out. Please, Born, add a 10.5!

Very comfortable shoe. Though I felt that the leather was much thinner than on the 8 year old shoe that I was replacing. I have narrow feet and these shoes seem to fit me very well. Arch support was sufficient.

I like these shoes, I really do. I tried them on and kept trying them on. The problem was the annoying fart sound with every step of my right foot. Hopefully your foot will have a better shape that won't make the annoying fart sound

These fit well, are minimalist and look professional. I recommend wearing them with socks the first few times you wear them, or put a band aid on the back of your heel to keep a blister from forming there.
