Finally! I've been searching for a slip on with good arch support/ability for orthotics that also hugs my feet. I usually wear EU 39/US 8 but ordered the 38 as recommended.

Way more comfortable than I expected. I thought they would be very stiff and bother the top
Of my foot but they are perfect

My feet died and then they went to heaven as soon as I slipped on these shoes. I love everything about them . I have 8 pairs of Alegria shoes. I'll never wear anything else.

I rarely remember to come back and write reviews on purchases, however, these shoes are too good not to review. I received the shoes one day, wore them around the house for about 5 minutes and decided I loved them, then wore them to work my 10 hour healthcare job the next day. These are the most comfortable, lightweight and nice looking shoes ever. Even day 1 I loved wearing them and I do put a lot of miles on my shoes. The arch support is good, they are even very quiet, I can sneak up on anyone, not that I would do that. :) I am not a regular Dansko fan, they feel too heavy and the back of the shoe feels too low. My previous shoes were Work Wonders by Dansko, and I loved them too (wore them out), but these are better. I wish these came in more cute designs, I would get another pair.

These days you have to go a size up with shoes but I can’t say for sure if true here. Sizing up a inch I have plenty of toe room but not too much. I wear braces inside my shoe and you can lift the insole out to put in which helps or if you want to switch to something else. I don’t have a wide foot but medium to narrow and fits fine. They are comfortable so turned out all and all a great fit and can wear them casual or dress if you want.

I bought the Celebration color/design in my usual size 8. Perfect. I really just wanted to see what the flower pattern looked like, but didn’t expect much in comfort because I have found Alegría to be too stiff in the sole for my preference. I thought the flower pattern could be such a happy sight during Coronavirus quarantine. Well, these shoes are not like typical stiff bottomed Alegría. They have a bouncy, roll feel to them and ate extremely lightweight. I find myself reaching for them everyday for the high comfort factor. I wear them without socks and my feet never get hot or sweaty. These shoes are a fantastic surprise to me. Unbelievably comfortable for quite a low price, and very well made. Easy to slip on and off and the elastic gore is soft and perfect. Nice texture on the black trim, too. Huge win. Keeps me smiling during quarantine.

This is the most comfortable shoe! I bought in 3 colors! Have worn them over the last 3 months at work as a nurse and so far, they have held up well. There is great support. Your heel does not come out of the shoe when walking like Danskos, so I don't feel like I am going to fall on my face! I am normally a 9 to 9 1/2 and the size 40 fits perfectly. I hope they come out with additional colors/patterns.

I ordered a red pair for my mom. She liked them so well she ordered black and blue too. Her gait isn't always steady so having a well fitting shoe is key. She raves about them.

I have bought this exact same shoe twice. I was having intermittent knee pain at work. No problems since I started wearing these shoes. I actually wear them at the pediatric hospital where I work. Lots of compliments on the style.

These are hands-down the most comfortable shoe I have ever owned- and I have Vionics, Clarks, other Alegria. The support is cushiony, not hard, like some shoes with arch support have. I hope that Alegria will make more shoes with this type of support in other styles and colors. Background on me-I am a teacher and am on my feet all day long. I need the comfort!

I love Alegria shoes for their great arch support. I have a very bad back and these shoes help me with my back issues. I also had problems with Plantar Fasciitis but wearing Alegria has resolved that issue. I am a nurse and have worn Alegria shoes for years. I would not have be able to continue working as long as I did without these shoes. I purchased this pair to wear around the house when I am cooking to give the support I need. They aren't as bulky as some of the other styles.

Very comfortable. I was having knee pain, but it disappeared when I started wearing these shoes. And the style is so versatile - wear with dress pants, jeans, casual skirts!

This was a great shoe! I really loved it, but my budget only allowed me to go w/ one shoe at the moment ( bought 3 styles to try out, knowing that I'd only be able to keep 1). So, I opted for the Keli Professional/Free Form. I will def'ly be repurchasing this shoe in the future, though. It (the Plumtastic color) is fun, funky, comfy, unique. I had not complaints about this shoe. It did not disappoint; comfy out of the box. If my budget would allow it, I would have kept these babies. Maybe one day!

If you need high arch support these shoes are for you, I’ve never had shoes that feel this way, like walking on air but with so much support. I wasn’t sure about the style but they look great

I ordered the “cultivate” design. The length & toe box width were true to size. I loved the lower profile & really wanted them to fit but the elastic band across the top of my foot was too tight on the right foot the one that was operated on). These will probably be okay for those who have not had any surgeries! Great support & I do not have a high arch.

I thought I hit the jackpot. These shoes were super cushioned and had great support. They were too tight across the toes and began to hurt after a short time. They don’t come in wide so getting a different size wasn’t an option.

I bought 3 different Alegria styles, all in size 39. NONE worked with my fluffy winter socks; not only because they were too tight, but also because the chamois foot bed covering won't allow the foot to move into the shoe! it hangs on to the sock! even if the shoe were a bigger size, I'd have to to, I dunno, wrap my socked foot in saran wrap to get it into the shoe. BUT THIS SHOE has a much smoother, non-grabby foot bed. Thank you!
That said, is it possible for an arch to be TOO high? When I tried to walk in these shoes, my toes were floating above the foot bed while rocking on the arch. It didn't feel terrible, but I don't think it would be good for me to be having my arches holding up the full weight of my body. Also, the choices of finish seemed limited. I bought the black patent as it was the most neutral available in my size (I'd prefer leather).
Of the three styles I tried, I liked the shape of the toe box on this one the best. Debra, which did come in Black Nappa leather looks like duck feet.
Not surprisingly, I'm going to have to get winter shoes for thick socks and summer shoes for thin or no socks.

These shoes are beautiful, but they were too tight across the arch for me, need a wide, which unfortunately is not available.

I have been having trouble with plantar fasciitis in one foot and removal of splinter in the other. These are the first shoes that I have been able to wear. I put in my orthotics and they were very comfortable and stylish. Very satisfied.
