Customer Reviews Cole Haan Grand Ambition Pump (75 mm)

Cole Haan has figured out the secret to amazingly comfortable heels. I could live in these. Maybe even go for a jog as well! I have zero discomfort in the ball of my foot like I usually do with other heels. A must have heel!

BeauuuuuuuuutifulCommmmmmmfyNeed I say more

I have every color, all of them. They are like walking on cushions. I would love to have a deeper navy blue and patent leather.

Had an interview coming up and bought this along with the Vesta in black 8.5 wide because I couldn't decide. The Vesta is smaller and sharper looking, but terribly uncomfortable because of the small toe box which pinches my pinky (even though I bought a wide?). The Grand Ambition Pump runs a bit big and wide (for Cole Haan sizes at least, I think a 8 regular would have fit me better) and it's a LOT more comfortable. The toe box is spacious and there's a nice cushioned hidden platform. The EVA foam makes it feel like wearing sneakers! These are more comfortable than my flats. The leather is buttery soft and I didn't have to break them in. I've never worn stiletto pumps before so it took some adjustment learning how to balance and walk on the platforms but it was worth the effort! Looked amazing with my interview clothes and I was able to keep up for the 1 hour long site tour + 1hr presentation + lunch. 100% recommend, might buy this in other colors for work.The only improvement I would suggest is for Cole Haan to improve the balance / stability, because the soft platform makes it easier to twist an ankle. Maybe change the heel tip for something more durable. Please make this forever!

These are the most comfortable heels I have ever owned. They look great with pants and skirts, and you can actually walk in them. I wear between a 7.5-8 and wear a 7.5 in these shoes. I hope they make a nude pair for spring.

These shoes are amazing- even better than the Nike + Cole Haan shoes. The padding is throughout the entire sole and the shoe has about a 1/4 inch rubber base. Outstanding- I bought 2 and will purchase more!

Wow. These shoes are amazing. The cushioning keeps my feet from getting tired and they were comfortable from the first day. I wear them to work almost every single day because I can't go back to wearing my other heels. Please make this in nude!!!

These are the greatest shoes ever. I can wear them all day and they feel more comfortable than the sneakers I wear during my commute. Have the black, hoping they come out with a nude/pink or really any other solid color!

**runs TTS - I couldn't adjust the size scale below.***. Everything you want in a heel! I immediately ordered a second pair. The insoles are crafted so well. You can really feel the support and cushioning. The toe box is so pretty it looks like your feet are floating over the floor because of how the sole is constructed. I'm waiting for more colors to come out so I can add to the collection. I wore them all day in Downtown LA!

the shoes are comfortable but bit wide on the sides

The colour is really like a purple beige and it looks plastic. I really loved their shoes, unfortunately this one didn't hit the mark. I would always buy these shoes for work. Due to the colour finish, I will have to think twice

Super comfortable just too pointy so I can't wear them, unfortunately have to return them.

Nice shoe and elegant appearing but fits slightly larger

As others mentioned, mine doesn't have the gold ascent shown in pictures. It's also a darker shade of brown than I expected. The footbed has very nice cushion.

These shoes are almost everything I was looking for in a nude pump. They are a little darker than pictured. I would have preferred them to be a little lighter. Besides that, they are the most comfortable pump that has ever graced my feet. Right out of the box, no breaking in required. I do find that they run a bit large. I have long narrow feet so sometimes I have to size up for pointy toe heels. Its nice not to have to do that this time. I thought about returning them due to the color but they're so comfortable I don't think I can part with them.

These pumps in morel suede are very nice! As one other customer noted they do slip a bit at the back even those the heels are true to size. I have placed thin cork pads in the front toe of the shoe which prevents my foot from pushing forward. Now my foot stays in place and I no longer feel they are too big in the heel.

I wear these everyday. PLEASE bring back the gold accent. It kept these somewhat interesting. Those seemed to fit better for some reason also. Go back to the original design, please!

These pumps are high quality and seemed like they would be a very comfortable pair of heels, but they run big. I always wear a size 7, and these seemed like my heels would easily slip out of them when walking. Perhaps a half size down would have worked well, but I didn't want to go through the hassle of exchanging them in case the 6.5 was too small.

Hi, these are beautiful shoes but not "all-day" wear. I recently work them to a conference and found, although fairly comfortable by toes were squeezed and feet hurt by the end of the day.

I purchased these shoes because of the gold hardware . Unfortunately they came today without it. If the ones with the gold hardware have been discontinued, just remove it from the website. I don't think that will prevent people from bying them. It is about principle. I am keeping them because I don't want to go through the hassle of sending them back but I am skeptical about buying from you again. I gave a 4 stars because it is a great shoes regardless.

As a 40-something professional, these are the only pumps I wear anymore. I will buy them in any color they make. They are comfortable out of the box. My only complaint is they used to make a wide version that I preferred due to bunions.

Very very comfortable and well made, but the gold accent pictured on it isn't present.
