Customer Reviews Josef Seibel Caren 01

nice looking shoe but the toe box was too wide.

This wasn’t “gray”. It’s some mix between brown and gray that doesn’t go with anything.

Although the shoe was beautiful, it felt like someone with wide feet had stretched out the left shoe. My left foot is larger than my right, but in this case, I had to return the shoes as the left one was just too large. Unfortunately there was only the one pair left.

Very nice shoes, but too large. I wear a size 9 American and this is a European 40/41.

I’ve been searching for yellow sneakers or similar and hoped these would be the answer but the yellow was just a bit too funky for me. Quality was good and comfortable but they had to go back.

I have high arches and wide feet but love wearing shoes w/o socks for a more casual fit. These work nice. I did wear them around the house to break in the leather before i wore them out. This was necessary for me as they were tight. They do make a ton of noise when I walk but I've only worn them for 1 day. I will get another pair in the future.

I love the color and styling of the shoe but there just wasn’t enough arch support or padding for the amount of walking I do all over the city. Sadly had to return.

This is a beautiful, well-made pair of shoes with a firm sole which works best for me. They are generous in length, but the toe box is too narrow for my foot. The pressure on my pinky and the toe beside it was painful from the seam on top of them. I removed the shoe lace on the right shoe to see if the width would improve if I loosened the laces, but it didn't help. These shoes were shipped in a bag that was too large. The box had no band around it, so the lid was off and torn, and the shoes were partially outside of the box. I tried only the right shoe. It has a scratch on the toe, probably from hanging out of the box. I've been a happy Zappos customer for years. Your shoes used to come with a band around the box to keep the lid on and extra packing to fill gaps in the boxes, but not recently. Shoes have arrived recently in a too large bag or box, carelessly packed, with the box torn, the lid damaged, and the shoes partially outside of their box. Are you experiencing a large number of damaged shoes since switching to bags? Overall the packing of orders for shipping in 2022 has deteriorated compared to earlier years. I always keep my shoes in their original boxes because I stack them on shelves. Torn boxes are a problem.

fit and comfort were OK, not much arch support or padding in foot bed. I liked the Clark's Kayleigh Aster better, returning these.

These are a great looking shoe, look to be made very well, I need a AA do these are to wide for me.

Nice comfortable wide toe box which is what I’m looking for in a shoe nowadays.

Satisfied with shoe. Metal eyelets are not used on this model, save for one on each side at the very top of lacing. The tongue of shoe is cut higher/longer than the older similar Caspian model, and tongue is a bit stiff at first but not uncomfortable with a sock. Kinda sorry to see no longer made in Europe. I like the Grigio color.

These are nice quality casual shoes. I'm wearing them today, all day and they are more comfortable then they were this morning. The white laces make them look pretty casual. They look great with my grey leggings and they'll be good with jeans too.

The color is beautiful, but these shoes were too wide for me, particularly in the heel. I wear a 42, but my foot is very narrow. I own several pairs of an older, similar style in Josef Seibel, and even though they are mediums and I wear a slim, the European fit worked for me. I hoped that the fit would be the same as my older shoes, but alas, no. It is becoming harder and harder for me to find shoes that fit. Sadly, since these don't, I will be returning them.

Nice comfortable good looking sneakers. I went with the Grigio. Pretty color. I’m happy with these. I’m also fond of Louisa 03. I am wearing those a lot too.

I have bought this brand for years because they are the best walking shoe that I have ever found. I was disappointed when I ordered two more of the same size I have been wearing and they are about 1/2" longer. So either order the smaller or plan on wearing a thicker sock.

The shoes were a little bit long in the heel area for me. It may just be my foot.

I got the size 37 and it was too large. I typically wear a size 6 1/2 in sneakers. I exchanged them for a 36 and they fit well and are very comfortable

I had tried this shoe in the patina color, in 9.5M and 10M but returned them because the color was too silver metallic for me. But the 10M fit, so I ordered the shoe in 10M grigio when it was again available. However, the 10 is too long. I will return these and order the 9.5 M. Keeping my fingers crossed, because the 10M in patina were very comfortable.

Although I usually like the style and comfort of Josef Seibel shoes this is the second time I have had to return this particular style because right out of the box one of the shoes squeaked when walking-I was a big fan of the Caspian style which was similar to this shoe and none of them ever developed a squeak when walking-bring back the Caspian!

These were beautiful shoes, carefully made of luxurious materials. They were longer than I needed, but too narrow. It is frustrating that such an attractive line of shoes comes only in medium width.

Virtually little to no arch support. This shoe is ok but for my purposes, I needed some padding on the sole and there was really not much, if any. The shoe ran smaller in the depth of the toe area than other J. Seibels I wear.

The shoe was perfect except for the color--super shiny and not to my liking.

Beautiful shoe. However I have some mild to medium protrusion (bunion) at the base of my big toe and the *interior* design of the upper has the leather overlapping into a very thick seam across the top of the foot- unusual design - and it would be very painful rubbing to wear for longer than just trying it on.

I have another pair of Josef Seibel shoes- the Claire, that I LOVE which is why I wanted to try another pair. I’m a size 38 in those but in these I had to exchange for a 39 because they were too small. It says white but they are not. They are more a cream/beige, not the look I was going for. I was disappointed because I finally got the size right, but the color was wrong. Returning- BOO!
