Customer Reviews PIKOLINOS Calabria W9K-4623

Very cute and well padded shoe but is not true to size -- I usually wear an 8 1/2 so ordered the 39 (8 1/2-9) and my toes are right up against the end.

I ordered these in the blue tricolor WPK-4756 for a 5 week vacation that included trail and city walking. They arrived 2 days before departure and after a trial wearing of an hour they went right in the suitcase (wore Jerez style for flying). These were the Spanish-made ones and like my other 5 pairs of Pikolinos the 41 fit well. I used a water-proofing spray on them before use and that helped in light rain. They went with every travel outfit and I felt more smartly dressed than in regular athletic shoes, even wearing them for dinner/evening. I don't wear orthotics and felt the support was adequate for me. Wonderfully lightweight, my feet were never weary after hours of walking. They make me smile every time I lace them on.

Love these shoes. Bought them for a trip to Paris as an alternative to sneakers. I have foot issues (plantar fasciitis etc, extremely high arches, bunion, etc) and needed something with a cushion and support that wouldn’t make me look like a tourist! These did the trick. There was no breaking in period — they were comfortable from the first time I put them on. I wore them with sundresses, jeans, and they looked great with all. I was able to put my heel cups in too. There isn’t a ton of arch support in these but I think you could get an orthotic in - or maybe size up. The insoles are not removable FYI. That said — it’s still a great shoe. I purchased the natural brown color, size 37. I would say they are true to size. I run wide in the front narrow in heel and had no issues. I may buy in another color!

I love this shoe! I have narrow feet, typically between size 8.5-9. After reading the reviews, I ordered a size 39 and they fit perfect. (Please note that shoes never fit me perfectly!) I only marked them as “too narrow” because I have narrow feet - a normal foot might find them to be narrow. These shoes are very comfortable. The leather is soft and the footbed is like walking on a cloud. I wore them straight out of the box without concern for blisters. I’ve received many compliments on them already!

I read other people's reviews and DID order a size up. It was still too small. It's not too tight, but too short. The color (brandy)is beautiful and the leather is elegant. It comes with a little buffer brush and a video is available for maintenance tips. Beautiful shoe if you can figure out the right size.

Simply said, I adore these shoes! I bought my first pair in blue in Granada, Spain. I walked for many miles every day on cobblestone streets and sidewalks and my feet were very happy with those rubber soles. The leather is very supple. Not stiff at all, which makes for a nicely flexible shoe. No blisters even worn straight from the box and walking day and night. Since I love the blue ones, I had to buy the red as well. The tan ones will be next. And I bought a pair of blue ones for my little sister before she goes on her first trip to NY. -No need to have ugly footwear in order to be comfortable all day. I found them to be true to size, but I did not wear thick socks with them. -I wore very thin no shows. With thicker socks, they might have felt snug.

I usually wear size 8 and after reading the reviews I ordered up from size 38 to 39 and they were still too small. Also, the leather is soft, but very thin, so not a sturdy shoe.

I am in love with these shoes! So comfortable, functional, and they look great! I've never sprung for a good pair of shoes and it was hard for me to spend over $100 on them, online no less... but I wish I had sooner since these will be very versatile in my wardrobe. Perfect balance of casual and polished, good with pants and dresses. I normally wear an 8.5 and the 39 fits me perfectly. It says 8.5-9, but I think since these fit perfectly at 8.5 that a 9 would need to size up. Quality-wise, I've never had leather shoes so I can't compare to other leather, but these seem fantastic. I had no idea leather would actually be comfortable. They are very soft and pliable, and the cushioning for my feet is divine. The bottom is very durable and I love that it will be functional and skid-free, it has excellent grip when i tried skidding it on tile. I hate smooth-bottomed shoes so this is a plus for me. The natural rope-look laces look really nice with the leather, and the leather nubs at the end are very cute. The shoes came with a little double-sided sponge/buffer tool from Pikolinos that I imagine is for cleaning the leather. Anyway would highly recommend, I plan to add more Pikolinos shoes to my wardrobe to make up my staple shoes.

How much do I love this shoe? I just bought a repeat pair. Wish I could stock up on enough to last my whole life! Nice color update from a year and a half ago. Cushy and comfortable right out of the box. Buttery soft leather. Perfect oxford look and feel for spring and summer.

Really neat shoe; very comfortable. I wear a slim/narrow shoe & I was pleasantly surprised how good these felt. (So, evidently, this shoe must run narrow.)

I love these shoes. I did not want the blue ones but the color I wanted was not in stock so I took a chance. The blue is beautiful. These shoes are very comfortable right out of the box. I read the reviews and was very apprehensive about ordering because there were complaints about the shoe running small. I am a solid 6.5 so I order the 37. Perfect fit. They felt a bit tight in the toe. Not short but tight. That went away after the first day. There was room for my orthotics but not so much that the shoe felt too big without them. If the color I want comes back in stock I will order them. I have arthritis in one toe and back issues so I have ordered “comfortable” shoes only to give them away after a couple of wears because they did not work for me. Wore these shoes without socks. These shoes are keepers. I went with this style because the tennis shoe look that is so popular right now is just not for me. These shoes will look good with slacks, shorts, skirts, casual dresses.

Adorable shoe. Similar thoughts to other reviewers - a bit of a shallow fit, but that’s exactly what I was looking for to wear with dresses. I’m a wide, flat footed 11 and bought a 42. Snug on initial wear but the fit will be near perfect as the leather will stretch just a little. I noticed others mentioned their big toe is noticeable through the shoe; this is true, but not extreme. You can see it in the video posted by Zappos and it looks similar on my foot. I’m really excited about this shoe - and it seems built to last for years to come, which is exactly what I was looking for.

In love with these shoes. Soooo comfortable. No breakin time. I wish they had my size in blue. My absolute favorite shoes now.

I knew Pikolinos ran narrow and small so I ordered a 39 instead of my usual 38. They fit beautifully and were very comfortable in part due to the rubber sole. However, they just weren't quite as stylish and dressy as I was needing for work. I went with the Pikolinos Royal instead.

Snug. The leather is super soft and comfortable.

First of all, I LOVE Pikolino shoes!! Well made and comfortable right out of the box. They tend to be a little on the pricey side but well worth it. I’m on my feet quite a bit and I don’t skimp on shoe comfort. I received these two days ago, sprayed them with waterproofing and wore them all day at work yesterday. Soft leather fit like a glove. I would highly recommend these shoes!

I am a predictable size 7.5. I have some other Pikolinos in 38, that fit just right and are very comfortable. I initially ordered the red in 38. They felt a bit small, but perhaps, given the soft leather, would stretch to fit. However, the red was just a bit too bright for me. So, I ordered the blue in 39. Love the color, however the 39 was way too long for me. I felt there was too much space between my toes and the front of the shoe. The shoe seems to provide good arch support and I can imagine they would make great travel shoes. However, both pairs of shoes I ordered have been returned. I plan on ordering the blue in 38 if it comes back in stock, and hopefully those will work!

This was super soft and I really wanted to like it but it looked too casual for work.

nice show runs small too short need to order one size up

These are the best walking shoes I've ever owned. I wore them for a week all over London and never had to switch over to sneakers--in fact, these are MORE comfortable than my sneakers. The cushioning is soooo soft. I usually wear a 9 1/2-10, and got these in a 41, which fits perfectly. I sprayed them with waterproofing spray just in case--the leather does not seem very hardy.

Great shoe. The leather is flimsier than expected if that makes sense. More like a sick. I wish I could have kept them but the insole was glued in and couldn't accommodate my orthotic. I'm normally a 42 and I ordered a 42. It was snug, but probably would have molded to my foot/stretched if I had kept them.

I love these shoes! All the women in my family own a pair. They are so comfortable and look great with blue jeans. The only thing I could complain about is that they squeek when I walk. Hopefully that will stop.

So much to love about this shoe. Butter soft leather, the color, the generous padding in the foot bed. Unfortunately for me, while the EU size 40 generally fits me well, this shoe felt a smidge too short.

This is a beautiful shoe. There is soft leather inside and out, and looks very well made. The insole is slightly padded, it is not removable. Sadly when I put my orthotics in, the heel slips up and down. Also, I usually wear a 9.5 shoe if it has closed toes and had to get a 41.
