Customer Reviews LifeStride Minimalist

Black 1 is faux-leather that looks and feels real. I feel that's a better value than Black 2, which is fabric with embedded sparkly bits. I love how the shoes look, and how they make my feet look skinny. The straps aren't adjustable, which ended up being the deal-breaker. I have narrow heels, so although the shoes fit otherwise, my heels kept popping out. I did learn that I don't need wide in LifeStrides, apparently. Sadly returning these.

I thought these shoes would be perfect for my nephew's wedding on Santa Catalina (a lot of walking). I ordered flatter shoes for this occasion, and in wide, but these were not wide enough for bunions! The wedding was gorgeous, the live music was great, the dancing was fun and I paid for it - my feet were killing me!

Very comfortable shoes, so why am I returning them? They did not look good on my feet. They did not provide a slenderizing effect. Instead they accentuated what I am going to call my cankles. My issue and not one for those who have lovely ankles. I ordered the almond size 7M

Beautiful shoe. Exchanged for half size larger.

Lovely shoes, just too wide for my feet. Sadly returning.

Nice heel and look for party. Shiny materials but not messy glitter

Lovely low heel dress shoe.

For me my foot was too wide for foot bed and I likely needed a 1/2 size up. The straps I was nervous if they’d stretch over time with no traditional closure. The style of shoe nice.

Straps were loose on my foot and not adjustable.

They were not comfortable.

The top of the shoe cut across the top of my toes making the fit uncomfortable.

This shoe is beautiful and had the perfect low blocked heel I was looking for, but the very pointy toe box hit me in the wrong place (have a small but real bunion) and made them very uncomfortable.

Attractive shoe but the straps lack the strength to hold the foot in place .

It’s a pretty shoe, but the fabric was rough over the instep. Also squished my little toe.

The heel seems too heavy for the straps on the shoe. They felt awkward when I walked. I liked the design of the straps, but it didn't work well on my foot. I have a wide foot, but a very narrow heel.

These are very pretty but simply did not fit my feet. The color is lovely/subtle and the heel is great. However the toe box was small so my foot (I'm a med width) didn't fit correctly. Sadly, back they go.

Love the look of the shoe, but the wide was too narrow.

They were not comfortable, but the strap over the foot fit fine. I think metal-colored shoes are very stiff and may be the main reason they're not comfortable. Very pretty shoe - hate they didn't fit. Plus the color wasn't more gunmetal, which is what I need. Still too silver.

Fellow Customer, please be very thorough in reading the information about this and any other Zappos shoe you want to purchase to confirm if it is a FINAL SALE item! AS IS. NO RETURNS. NO EXCHANGES. NO CREDIT. I missed that light pink Final Sales banner....so please don't you miss it! It sits directly to the right of the price. It may be for only a specific color or size out of the entire shoe style selection. Don't shop when you're tired like me! ; )

These are really nice shoes, very pretty - just can't get the right fit for me.

Pretty shoe, but front too short for my foot.
