Customer Reviews Kenneth Cole New York Riley 85 Pump

The picture of the shoe does not do it justice; this is a gorgeous shoe (I bought the the "ocean" color) and the gold accent above the heel cap is a nice touch (not tacky). There's some light padding the sole which makes it comfortable. My only complaint is that the sizes are "odd." I typically fit a size 6 in all heals (i.e. Vince Camuto, Nine West, Sam Edelman, Charles David), but the size 6 in these were too small (it felt more like a 5.5) and the size 6.5 was too large (felt like a 7 where I had at least 1/8" gap b/w my heel and the shoe). I love the color and style of the shoe so much that I'm still trying to see if I could maybe make the 6.5 work by adding an sole or heel, or both, insert.

I just received 2 pairs one is silver and gold, they are beautiful and I love them, my feet is an 81/2 but for pointy toe shoes I purchased a size 9, 81/2 would have been to tight. The feel is soft and Quality is a given, they arrived perfect. I have not worn them out yet, I'm trying to wait on church to reopen, padded insoles nice Arch support, feels like my feet sink into luxury. Sizing depends on how tight you want your shoes, I take a 9 for extra room and they still fit nicely. The colors are beautiful. Kenneth Cole you did a good job on these.

Elegant & Stylish! The photo for these heels simply does not do them justice. The color is very creamy and rich looking. The gold capped heel elevated the shoe and making it look much more sophisticated. This is a great, professional looking, conservative, and refined style. Would look great with any suit and is well worth the price! Great investment, in my opinion. I also found this to be quite comfortable as an every day office shoe. I wore mine for four hours for the first time, without breaking them in, and found that I didn’t have any comfort issues. I would recommend these as an appropriate staple for your closet.

Super cute shoe looks good with everything

very comfortable pump. Usually wear flat shoes but love these for work or more formal occasion.

These shoes are beautiful and worth the money. I got so many compliments on them. They are very high quality. They fit true to size but if you have wide feet just be aware you might get a little smushed toes at the point. Still, well worth it.

Beautiful shoes but super tight in the toe box. Sadly going back

These shoes are the perfect black pump. I ordered a size larger than I normally would - I have very wide feet - and they fit perfectly. Wore them for the first time for a performance where I had to MC and was walking up and down stage stairs all night in these. There is a little extra padding in the toe which makes a huge difference. These are definitely a keeper.

These shoes feel and look awesome!

Love this shoe! It's comfortable and pretty!

pretty and comfortable!

Love these shoes they are comfortable and very pretty!

beautiful shoe

Fit great, looked great!

At first I was bummed because they were out of the 5.5 in the ocean color- but the 6 fits great and all the padding in the sole helps the shoe fit tighter around the foot- definitely one of the best fitting and comfortable pumps I’ve ever bought- will be sure to buy more colors!

Love this shoe, and the blue and green tones make this a versatile choice. Felt like a boss walking in these.

Ocean is a nice alternative to a regular navy pump. The "snake skin" texture and color combination add interest to an otherwise, plain shoe. While I am not sue if it is the exact same style, I have a similar Kenneth Cole neutral color pump purchased years ago that remains a favorite of mine. When looking for a navy pump I searched to see if they still made it. I was thrilled to find it!

These pumps were extremely comfortable. The padding in the shoe really helps. I got the gray suede pumps and I love them color.

These are comfortable beautiful, stylish, sexy heels. Love the color.

Sad face here. I wanted to love this shoe but three steps in my living room and I knew it wasn’t meant to be. Pinched across the top of my foot and toes and I could tell I wouldn’t make it more than a few minutes in real life.

The shoes are beautiful, but as with most every pump I've tried the last couple of years, the vamp of the shoe hits my foot across a bunion or is too low and shows ugly toe cleavage. This one hit across a bunion. I wear a 5 1/2 or 6, so extremely high heels are out of the question which eliminates some brands. I have an old pair of Franco Sarto pumps that were perfect, but they are beyond repair now. They are only making this shoe with a kitten heel currently. Please shoe manufacturers, make pointed toe pumps with a higher vamp and 3 1/2" heel height.

These shoes are very pretty, and structurally well-made. I ordered the gold snakeskin, and while they fit well and generally are very attractive, I was disappointed to find that they arrived with matching scuffs on both the toes and the heels backs, from where the thin gold material had been rubbed off in transit. There were foam inserts in the packaging intended to prevent this, I believe, but the gold rubbed off nevertheless, and I didn't think they'd hold up well from mild wear-and-tear. The fit was great and gold is so pretty I considered keeping and trying to touch them up with nail enamel, but decided it was too much work considering they were scuffed straight out of the box. Sadly, I returned them. Perhaps the other colors are a little tougher!

Beautiful shoes I brought this shoe for my daughters wedding but they were just to uncomfortable to wear. They should have been returned as they have never been worn however they were forgotten in the excitement of the wedding and were never sent back.
