Customer Reviews Franco Sarto Carolynn

These are going to be great this Fall/Winter. They go with darn near everything, so I’m sure they will be my go to shoes for work. Can’t wait to wear them with leggings and oversized sweater. Perfect for wet Oregon weather too. They are a little stiff but roomy enough to wear w light weight socks. Time to get Fall on!!

Beautiful shoe, love the subtle navy color. As with most flat loafers, little arch support and some slight gaping along the sides when weight bearing is noted.

These are gorgeous shoes and look great with ankle pants for work. They do feel slightly large, but not so large that I had to order a size larger than my usual size.

I originally ordered a size 10 but the shoes were too large so I returned them for a 9 1/2, which fit perfectly. I love the style and am very satisfied with my purchase.

Love these shoes and may purchase in black embossed leather!

I have these in black in a size 9 and love them; they're just a touch too big. Ordered these in an 8.5 and they fit exactly like the 9. May return. Don't need two pairs of too-large shoes! Great style, good cushioning, and arch support. Have worn my black pair a ton.

Nice tweed upper gives this otherwise black shoe an interesting look and allows it to go nicely with both black and brown slacks. Not sure I'm a big fan of the chrome strip on the back, but it is not too overwhelming.

I wanted to love these - they are so cute. However, even in a wide they were so narrow - and I don’t have super wide feet.

I agree with the other reviews that say your foot slips out the back. That being said, the front is wide enough for my bunion without looking freakishly wide. They are comfortable and look great.

Pretty comfortable.

Such a beautiful shoe! I would love to keep them, but they are too big. If they were just snug, I would wear them in hopes of the leather stretching out, but my heel slips out of them when I walk. Too bad the next size down is out of stock :(

Love FS shoes. Loved the look though should’ve been leather for the price. Regretfully they were too small (short/narrow) despite being my regular size with this brand. Purchased another FS style through a different vendor and those fit great. Returned these.

great style, typical of patent leather not a lot of give, but WAY big, can't stop walking out of my normal size

Great shoe for work and travel. Solid shoe with good padding that makes long days in these comfortable. Only downside is that they stretch out with a few wears.

I love the IDEA of these shoes - but the tassel really outshines the shoe -- it's just TOO BIG.

I really like the look of this shoe. I bought a similar shoe by a different brand but when I went back to buy the shoe in black it was sold out. This Franco Sarto was the closest match so I bought it. Overall it's a nice shoe and I find it fits my 11M true to size. There is something a little weird but not a dealbreaker in the heel area that seems a tad wide. It doesn't affect the shoe fit overall but I do notice it. My biggest complaint is that this isn't a true patent leather. It's man made and made in China. It's harder and harder to buy genuine products as companies look to cut costs and increase profits. That means using cheap man-made? material and cheap manufacturing. I happen to like real patent leather and although these don't look bad they're definitely fake patent.

They fart when you walk. Cute, very stiff, very flatulent.

Cute shoe! Fit well on my size 11, it didn’t slip off my heel like loafers tend to do. However it wasn’t the most comfortable to me.

I liked the fit because I could wear socks, so I guess they're a bit wide. Super comfy. But only 3 stars because I thought I was getting black patent LEATHER, but they are man-made, which is not advertised clearly. I'll keep them, but I prefer wearing leather shoes.

I ordered 2 sizes to get the best fit. I don't really like to shoe, so I am returning both pairs

I'm an 8 - always an 8...I can wear 8.5 in a boot; ordered 8; couldn't get my foot 1/2 way in...GORGEOUS shoe though...I will consider a larger size, but considering how stiff they are...not sure they will be too comfy

May have fit in the front of my foot but, like others have stated, the heels are too big and slip when you walk. Returned.

I love the look of these shoes, and I really want to love the shoes, but every time I put them on, they are uncomfortable. I have a narrow foot, and these were just too wide, even with inserts at the heel; they slip up and down. Sadly, I will have to give them up. I imagine for someone with wide feet, they are great.

These were super cute shoes, and even though they looked narrow and pointy, they didn’t feel that way on my foot. Unfortunately, my usual size was at least a half or full size too large. I couldn’t even walk in these as they kept flapping off the back of my foot. Not sure if I will bother trying a smaller size, since this is the second brand of this kind of shoe I’ve tried with no luck.
