Customer Reviews Clarks Raisie Arlie

I liked the look of the shoe and think it would be perfect for pants, skirts, or crop pants. The length on the shoe was ok but the shape of the toe crashed into my big toe and these would never be comfortable so returning them. Thanks Zappos for making that part easy.

Loved the style but unfortunately shoes were too tight. Tried them on in the morning and evening to compare, with the same result.

Cute shoe, weird fit. I read the comments so I sized up from my normal 6 to a 6.5 medium. It was too narrow; the sides of the show bulged out. So I ordered a 6.5 wide, and even though that felt too big and there was plenty of room, the sides still bulged out. I think the leather is too soft, perhaps? Anyway, both are going back.

The shoe looks like plastic and the arch didn't hit my foot in the right spot.

I ordered the wide version, and the toebox was painfully narrow so I could barely fit my foot in it. The heel, however, was extremely wide, so the shoe was like a tissue box. Also (and this is often a problem with Clarks) the wide version was at least half a size longer than it should have been.

Unfortunately, the heel slips. Then the toes are too cramped in smaller size. A beautiful shoe otherwise.

I absolutely love the style of this shoe and wish it was available in double wide. I have a wide foot with a very high arch, and even though I ordered the wide, it wasn't wide enough. Clarks typically don't fit my foot, but I was hoping this one would fit. Bummer!

I initially ordered my regular size if 8B. They gapped when I walked though they felt good. I ordered a half size smaller, but the were too short and tight.

So I started out with these in my standard size - a 7 medium width. My toes were COMPRESSED! Totally uncomfortable. Then I tried the wide 7 - sloppy fit, foot fell out - they seemed like a full size bigger! I tried to order the 6.5 in the wide, but they are out of stock in the black with tweed. :( really super disappointed.

They felt good but came off my heels as I walked in them.

It’s a beautiful shoe, however, the wide width is not wide at all. I do not have an especially wide foot, yet the size wide was far too narrow for me.

I was so disappointed with these. I was excited to receive them because they are exactly the style I was looking for, and I am a longtime fan of Clark’s. My plan was to wear them with cropped black pants for work, so no socks, which is what I did. Oh, the pain!! They tore up the back of my ankles. I tried to wear bandaids the next day, and the friction on the back of the shoe is so strong that the bandaids came right off. They may be ok if you want to wear them with socks.

I have been buying Clarks for both myself and my husband for decades; we currently have ten pair in our closet, most of them purchased from Zappos. They have always been excellent quality, consistent fit and good value. This pair of shoes is JUNK! It's obvious to me that something has changed. The materials, fit, sizing, support, comfort and style I am used to are NOT present in this pair. I wore them for a couple of hours before realizing how crummy they are, so I own this pair. I will be donating them and I will not buy Clarks again in the future. Please pass this along to Clarks in the "probably nobody will care" department.

I was disappointed because a mistake was made in the shipping. I ordered a 7.5 wide and received medium width instead, so had to send them back. The box the shoes arrived in said wide, but the shoes inside were not.

I'm really not satisfied with these shoes. I thought they'd be somewhat stylish and definitely comfortable, but they are not. I tried to break them in, but they cut into both heels and are stiff. Very disappointing.

Ordered these shoes because I have other Clarks, but wanted something other than the usual boxy style that all look alike. None of Clarks I have bought have had arch support so I didn't expect alot of comfort. Wasn't too excited about the black patent leather strip across instep, but felt I could live with it. SO DISAPPOINTED IN THIS SHOE. Although reviews stated that the heels were very loose fitting, I felt since I had never had this issue before that it wouldn't affect me. These shoes seem long for a 6.5 W. When I stood, it felt as if my heel was leaning me back and toes were in air. Walking is not natural. I only wore for short period before my heel was coming in and out of shoe. I purchased an insole which made my foot rub across the instep. ( maybe an expandable gore here would have helped). Then my toes cramped up because of the awkward way I had to step. Heavier socks, mole skin, nothing helped. I usually have to go about 50 miles to get shoes in my size. But I think it will behoove me to contact stores before going in and actually trying the product on. No more mail order.

Had to return these shoes. They were so narrow & way smaller than my size. Felt like 2 sizes too small & very narrow. If you have really narrow front of your foot then it might work for you.

After reading all of the reviews, it said to order down. I normally take an 11 1/2 so based on the reviews I order an 11. The shooter was way too small I’ve since re-order the 12 and it’s a little roomie. I am going to keep them anyway because they are so cute. I’ll just wear a heavier pair of socks
