Customer Reviews Ilse Jacobsen Tulip 139

Love these shoes! Extremely comfortable, even with a high instep. They are soft to the touch and I consider them "all day" shoes, unlike many pairs I have that are "2 hour" shoes. I have 4 colors...and counting.

runs snug, but per other reviews thinking they will stretch a bit

Great comfort shoe! It does stretch so order 1 size smaller.

At the risk of reviewing too soon, I adore these shoes! They are almost elegant in their simple coverage, super easy to get on and off, and suit my sense of style with all lengths of pants and with knee-length dresses. I sized up to accommodate a thick New Balance full-foot support bed. The caveats: for me as for other reviewers they do squeak, and I have only worn them around the house so don't know how they'll do on a walk.

These are cute and comfortable right out of the box! I may buy again in an additional color! I checked "moderate" arch support above, but really there isn't much....the only drawback. Thankfully, it feels like there may be enough room to add some arch help. Bottomline, I love them, but wouldn't wear them to stand or walk all day long!

I am not sure why i was prompted to review this shoe as i returned it (box said 37 but shoes were 38). Maybe in case i had negative comments since i returned them? However, replacement shoes were awesome. Good fit and comfort. Interesting since i first saw them in a store that didnt have my size; interesting because the saleswoman said they run big. I would say the opposite. First they run trues to size. Second because u can glimpse feet thru holes, they need to fit properly I have 2 friends who have been wearing them for years and swear by them.

These are my third pair. I wear these all the time, even with dresses. I've walked 10 miles in one day with the shoes. So comfy, light and airy for Florida. Also does really well in the rain.

I loved these shoes so much (I ordered them in grey) that I ordered two more pairs (navy & black). I purchased a different style (the same fabric but more like a ballet flat) but they had trouble staying on my feet. These stay on my feet on my feet perfectly!!! And to boot I threw them in the washing machine on delicate and they cleaned up nicely (I would take the inner sole out because it takes a long time dry). They would be great shoes to take on vacation!!!

Shoes are comfortable right out of the box. I usually wear a 37 or 38 and got these in a 37. Because the top of the shoe is soft, I think sizing down if you're between sizes is a good strategy. The Laurel Green I purchased is a great color. Neutral but not boring, and goes with most everything. Comfortable to wear without socks. My only caution is that while the insole is fairly thick and comfy, it's a bit soft, so I would not want to go on a long walk with these. (For me, a harder, contoured insole - like Keens - is what I find comfortable for longer hauls). That said, these are a favorite to slip on for errands.

perfect fit ,very light weight and comfortable, no need to break them in. The man made material is comfortable, great without socks...usually I can't wear shoes without socks . Not sweaty.

I usually wear a size 12, and supposedly a 42 is comparable to a 12. I bought 2 pairs of these Ilsa Jacobsen shoes in 2021, and one pair fit me (just barely, but good enough to wear with super thin no-shows) but the other pair was way too small. It fit more like an 11. I have loved the pair I kept, and I was so hoping to find another color or two, so I ordered 4 pairs from Zappos, knowing that the size could be a little variable. Sadly, all 4 are going back because they were all too small. If these shoes ever come out in a 43 I'll buy one of every color. Please Zappos--convince the manufacturer to expand their shoe sizes to include 43s. Women's feet are getting bigger!

Really cute, comfortable and very lightweight. I usually wear an 8 and my toe almost touches the end of the shoe sized 38. Really need a half size up. I'll try exchanging for a 39 and see what happens

These are very cute. . .but just too wide for my narrow feet.

I loved these shoes unfortunately a size 9 was to big and a size 8 that I purchased locally were to small I wish more shoes were made in 1/2 sizes its becoming more difficult to find that option in styles I like.

Runs very small, but loved the shoe and will try again later

Based on reviews I ordered my normal size Euro 40 believing that they would stretch. I did not find this to be the case and regretted not going up a size. I have arthritis in my feet and am pleased that they provide enough support for all day wear. I just ordered another pair; however, this time I selected size 41.

These are adorable, but they didn't work for my wide feet despite success with other Euro sized brands. Would size up, except they're all out of stock. Also of note, I did see on another site that these stretch with wear which may be of benefit because they are not easy to pull on.

I already have 2 pairs of the same size of Tulip. I love them because they are so comfortable. This, the 3rd time around, was a failure. Style was consistent, bottoms seemed the same size but I could barely fit my foot into the shoe. I was in the shoe business for most of my professional life, including line building, and suspect that the upper dimensions didn’t match the specifications given to the factory. Very sad! PS. My review is based on all 3 pairs. The first 2 would have been a 5*

The color was not great (latte). These were snug but not long. My toes had plenty of room at the tip, but the shoe itself felt very tight. They might stretch with wear, but I returned them mostly because they were too narrow for me.

Love these shoes. Everyone who has them say that they stretch so if you can be patient, go with your regular size. I chose to return.

The shoes are cute and comfortable but they squeak when I walk on hardwood floors. Not sure if this pair was defective or if they're all that way. Had to return them.

Very cute shoes but SO TIGHT. Going to size up!

I LOVED these shoes for awhile, but eventually they stretched out so much that I can no longer wear them. They flop of and off and are no longer wearable. So very disappointing as I LOVED them for the fit and comfort - until I could no keep them on my feet. So sad.

These shoes run EXTREMELY small! I'm normally an 8.5, so I ordered a 9 and a 10. They were BOTH too small! I'm not going to bother with an 11.

Good width for narrow heel. Too short in toe Wrong color in the box
