I love these shoes and have gotten tons of compliments on them. But my feet don’t totally love them, which surprises me because they’re Allegrias. Height, appearance, lack of flexibility in the toe area, adjustability (2 straps - ankle and heel are both adjustable!), roominess of the toe area - all really great. My only issue is the footbed is a little slippery and my foot slides forward a bit. And the ball of my foot - which is historically not one of my problems- is a bit sore after a day of wear. Uncertain how great a distance I could walk in them pain free. Perhaps I’m just used to cork insoles now. Very attractive shoe, though, which is a challenge for us shoe-challenged!

I love these shoes!! Love, love, love them! My only complaint would be that Alegria leather rubs off the color on the toe quickly. This is my second pair of shoes where the toe gets discolored after only a few times. I had to get shoe polish to cover.

Oh the smell! Yikes, it was so strong and so chemically. Even if these were the cutest and most comfortable shoes I had ever tried on, I would have to think twice about keeping them. They are not as cute and streamlined as the Dansko Sam. They are squishy and comfy but a pretty deep squish... like 1cm of memory foam. All of the velcro adds a bulky look, the way that it is done. I am a 7.5-8 wide (wide in the toes, not the heel) and the 8-8.5 was a great fit, but ultimately I couldn't take the looks, the squish, and the bulk, so back they go!

“Sizes as a difference of opinion.” The size in Europe for a 38 is truly a seven and a half. So this size has its own rules- 38 is how it is written on the chart 8-8.5.
The Alegria chart is true for their shoes. The shoes are a little big on me since I followed the real European conversion. So, I am wearing them, but there is a bit of extra space seen at the heel. Follow - at-least for this shoe - their own conversion of sizes.

Size was accurate. Fit was comfortable. Love the adjustable velcro closures, which was a selling point over Danskos. However, the color was way too lipstick red. I was hoping for/expecting more of a deeper fire engine red. Decided to return because of color.

This shoe is very pretty and looks good on my feet, but my instep was off sync with the instep of the shoe and was uncomfortable. This was disappointing because I really liked this pair of shoes. I'll have to return them.

I love the look of these shoes and they were true to size but...i found them to be too hard and not enough cushioning...not good when you have neuropathy and chronic leg cramps....They were also cutting into the sides of my feet. Sadly had to return.

These shoes are so cute! I really wish I could have kept them! The problem is not with the shoes but with my feet. They are super wide with an ever-growing bunion. I wear other Alegria brands, primarily Paloma where I have no trouble at all. I am not surprised that this style didn't work. Between the slight heel pushing foot forward a bit and the narrower toe box, it wasn't meant to be. Those of you with somewhat normal feet will LOVE these!

I knew these were too small for me just by looking at them. I'm a 6-6.5 depending on the brand of shoe, but these shoes were marked as 6-6.5 (36) and were more like a 5.5-6. (I compared them to my 36 Danskos and these looked at least a half size smaller.) Not sure if this is how this shoe brand runs (never purchased them before), or if this pair just got mislabelled at the manufacturer, but I am definitely returning these.

Sizing was my standard 39. I really like the style, the velcro strap, the rounded toe and the sueded footbed. I have two pair, one with the sueded footbed and the other with a leather footbed. The leather one is more sticky on a bare foot, so I wear socks with those. I really like these, however, they both rub a hot spot on the top of my pinky toes near my cuticle. I have to wear bandaids on those toes.

Love these shoes! I teach and stand all day and my feet don’t hurt. My only issue is with the leather. The toe already has scratches . This happened to another pair too.

I wear a 5 1/2-6 size shoe so wasn't sure whether to order the 35 or 36. The 36 was just a smidgen too big and was too wide. I ordered the 35 in brown and the 36 in red and wish I had done the opposite. The 35 fit better but I really liked the shoes in red so I am returning both of them and ordering the 35 in red. Thanks to Zappos for letting me try and return different shoes. I always have a hard time finding my size in stores so am extremely grateful to Zappos for carrying small sizes.

Shoes did not come with the original box, they were packaged in a plain brown generic box; obviously a return from someone who returned just the shoes. Obviously I'm not going to be wearing the box but I just like having the original box. As far as how they fit, the front part of the shoes were stretched out as if someone with bunions tried them on. Because of this they were un wearable. Otherwise very cute shoes wish they'd have fit I would have kept them despite the box.
