Customer Reviews Alegria Keli Professional

I wear a size 9 in every other shoe purchased and ordered a size 9 in the Alegria Keli Professional in Minnow Rainbow, but they were too small. I exchanged them for the size 10 and they fit perfectly like a size 9 normally does in all of my other shoes. They are extremely supportive and comfortable! I highly recommend buying a size up from your normal size in these shoes for a comfortable fit.

Pretty style , I always order the same size in Allegria, but this pair is wider. I kept them to wear with big socks, but I am disappointed because I like to wear with skirts and no sox. Best shoe for bunion and plantar fasciitis

This was my second pair of Alegria "Kelly's". I bought the first from a local store which is now closed. These do not have the support my first pair had, which I bought locally. I went by the chart on Zappos for sizing and I had to return the shoe and go up a size. I have had been on the same hard floor surface for 20 years and yet, these have the best support of any shoe that I have found. I will buy more in other styles, now that I know what size to get.

I love these shoes. They look like clogs, but they are not high in the heel (I'm not worried about twisting my ankle). They look fashionable enough- not like orthotic shoes, but they are plenty deep (and wide) enough to accommodate my custom orthotics. yay!

They hurt the bottom of my feet so bad at hr 4 that I have had to change shoes for the remaining 8hrs of my shift. I am praying that its just because they need to be broken in.

I've been searching for a comfortable walkabout shoe for everyday use - now that Dansko's quality has gone down. There's a lot to like about this shoe. At first I thought it was way too small, but realized that the suede-like insole was catching my socks as I slid it on! The toe box is quite roomy - and all my toes can relax in there. Overall I like them, however they are a smidge too short in the toe box. The next size up is likely to be too sloppy, so I'm going to stick with these. Not perfect, but pretty close.

I ordered a 41 instead of a 40, my usual size in Alegria shoes, based on reviews that the shoes run small. Unfortunately, the shoes seem true to size, meaning too big for me, so I had to return them. I reordered the same style in a 40, and am currently waiting to receive them. Cute shoes, but especially if you have narrow heels, order you usual size.

Great looking shoe, but needs more arch support. My feet got tired after a couple hours in them.

This is a comfortable, sturdy shoe for someone who needs to be on their feet most of the day. They might run slightly big as I can order a smaller size in these than I usually do in European sizes. and they loosen up some with wear.

Nice fit. Good for closed toe shoes comfortable arch

I searched and searched for a comfortable shoe to accommodate my metatarsalgia (and wide feet) until I finally came across these shoes by Alegria. These are perfect for me and they aren’t super ugly like a lot of comfortable shoes. I did try three different styles of Alegria shoes (all exact same size obviously) and they all fit very differently.

The qualifiers: These may run half a size small, I'm still breaking them in. I'm very picky with my shoes. I have one malformed foot which has had had a lot of surgery on the bones. It requires orthopedic shoes so both feet get to wear them. I have two hip replacements, bad knees, and I'm very overweight. So there are the challenges. I LOVE these shoes. Sparkly orthopedic shoes? I couldn't believe it. They are fashionable and good to my feet. They are very comfortable coming out of the box and are getting even more comfortable as I wear them. They are better than Danskos as they do not have the rise in the heel which torques my knees and makes me feel very unsteady in my shoes. I feel closer to the ground and much safer walking in these shoes as opposed to the bit of teetering I do on the Danskos. The support is very good. I work in a building with concrete floors, everywhere, and these shoes hold up to them. All the aches I usually have from my bad foot are now missing. I'm ordering the enhanced arch supports to try them. They also have wide inserts you can insert. How nice I can pop them in or out - and replace them. I always loved that feature in my Birkenstocks. And best of all, there are so many colors/styles in this particular model I don't have to look for another shoe. I can just get a different color of this one. I'm ordering the Night Rosettes right now. P.S. I'm a pretty serious person and was reluctant to have so much fun on my feet. I've gotten a lot of compliments on them and inquiries where I got them. They really are as much to wear as they are comfortable.

The Dusk color was super cool and the shoe was very comfy. They run big however and the ones I ordered do not come in a smaller size (35/5). I also am not a big fan of the clunky/chunky look of clogs so back they go.

I know these shoes can be a great addition to my wardrobe, especially for work. I know they must be comfortable feeling the cushion inside and seeing the arch support. However, they were way too small for my foot. I'm a size 9 1/2 wide, but realize these did not have wide available so I got the 10. I could barely get my foot in the shoe. I will have to send them back.

I usually wear a size 5.5 so I bought the recommended size (35 US Women's 5-5.5). My heel slips slightly out of the shoe when walking. Other than that I am pleased with the look (I purchased the White Tooled version) and comfort of the shoe. They also appear to be well made.

This was my first time trying Alegria brand shoes, I was hoping to love them, because I was looking for a shoe that would allow me to stand for longer periods of time without pain. I had to return them, because the arch support of the insole felt like a ball under the middle of my foot, otherwise they felt like they would be soft yet supportive. I prefer shoes with a wide toe box and these were fine in the toes, width was perfect, length was perfect and I consistently wear a 7.5 in shoes and 7 in sandals.

Ugh...shoe shopping! I have very WIDE feet, which makes shoe shopping a dreaded chore. I am supposed to wear a 9 to 9.5, but have to routinely go up in size so that my Flinstone feet can actually fit. I tried these Alegrias in a 39 wide first, but exchanged them for a 40 wide. Those got exchanged for a 41 wide, which finally worked for me. This is my first experience with clogs as tennis shoes just don't cut it for my 14 hour days. I honestly was expecting a little more cushion to the shoe ~ kinda expected to be walking on clouds for the price I paid. While they weren't supremely cushy, I was able to wear them for my whole shift, and my back and hips were not hurting when I got home. I like the pattern on the shoes as it goes with all of my scrubs. The first day I wore them I felt like I was clomping around in clown shoes because they were about a half size too big, not to mention the box toe I feel makes my feet look huge. I was up in the air about keeping them until I realized that I didn't hurt when I got home. The second day they seemed to fit a little better, and by day three I was sold. I wish Alegria made half sizes so I wouldn't feel quite so clownish, but the comfort is worth it so far.

I really wanted to like this shoe and do like it's styling and cushioned insole. But, they are just too loose for me to wear I wear size 12, the length was perfect, but I'm a N/M and that part wasn't good for me. Have to return.

I’m an RN and work 12 hour days on my feet. Ive tried Dansko’s and even after breaking them in for 3 months, they hurt my feet so bad that I couldn’t walk the next day after wearing them (let alone all the near- miss ankle sprains from them rolling!). I decided to try the Alegria Keli. I liked the fact that it didn’t have a high heel and the sole was sturdy. I actually ordered 2 pairs in a different size to try out which size worked best, with the intention to return the other. I ordered a 39 wide and a 40 wide. I am a wide 9.5 in every other shoe I own. The 40 wide was nice in the toes and roomy in width, however, when I walked the shoe slid off my heel which I didn’t like. The 39 wide fit well, was slightly more snug across my toes (the widest part of my foot) but my foot did not slide out of the shoe in this size. I figure the leather upper will eventually stretch with wear. Overall the shoe is comfortable and sturdy. Almost like wearing a sneaker that you can slip on. The only downside to this shoe is the material is like a soft, velvet-like. I would’ve preferred something wipeable or shiny for ease of cleaning. I’m not sure how this material will hold up to our hospital wipes god forbid I get something gross on them.

These are a little bit more blue and sparkly than I would have thought from the picture, but I liked them enough to not return them. I'm fairly tough on shoes, but these seemed to hold up well. They are too warm for the summer months, but I will use them again this winter and probably purchase new insoles. Love that they have the wide option.

I LOVE LOVE LOVE these shoes. I'm a hospital RN, and on a whim a few years ago, I purchased a pair, hoping they would be good shoes. I was NOT disappointed. I wore those babies for 3+ years, and would still be wearing them if they weren't simply starting to look their age. So, knowing how much I love these shoes, I bought another pair. Wore them 3 days straight for 12 hours each, and had no problems. Comfy right out of the box, fair arch support, comfy foot bed, roomy toe box, they're flexible and not clunky, and not heavy. Would definitely recommend. There are a few subtle differences: 1. size seems just a *bit* smaller than the last pair (my big toes *just* touching the front of the shoe), but I'm hoping that with a little time, the leather will relax and mold to my feet. 2. overall, the left shoe is a little smaller than the right shoe - tighter, shorter?, my heel doesn't slip out... but I'll get over it.

Been wearing for a week, and quite comfortable. Needed a size larger than usual to wear with socks

I had a pair of these in black. They were extremely comfortable for the conferences i worked that require me to be on my feet up to 13 hrs a day. I have wide foot with bunions, neuromas and plantar faciatis. The problem i had with them is the top of the shoe and footbed were were wider than the sole of the shoe. I kept 'falling off the shoe' and it only ever happened in these shoes. By fall of, i mean my ankle would just turn in or out without reason or warning. I think that slight overhang of materials caused the imbalance. (Look at the picture on this site of the paloma or debra model to see what i mean) One day in early February, once again my ankle turned, in both directions this time. Long story short - after 3 full months of medical attention and being braced up it finally feels better after. I chucked the shoes. Am going to order a new pair as the picture looks like the footbed and sole align. If not, they go back. I have never had this issue with any other shoes. It was def a freaky experience.

These shoes are very cute and I loved the print. The problem is the foot bed did not feel right. I have several pairs of this style and they did not feel the same. I felt almost like a layer was missing.

Really good shoe for standing up all day. Minor flaw... When walking, the shoes cause my socks to rotate and shift down into the shoes. They eat no-show socks immediately. My crew socks end uo halfway down into the shoes after only a few minutes of walking. It's weird. I have never had this problem before. I don't have a solution. So, good for standing; not so good for moving around.
