Customer Reviews ara Ophelia

Finally a pair of comfortable pumps. I’ve been searching for some time to find closed toe shoes that fit my feet bunions and all. This brand is a great new discovery!

These shoes came in a generic box with no markings and appeared to be delivered by Amazon even though they were ordered on Zappos. I loved the look of the shoe and the style. They, however, were way too big. I normally wear a 7 1/2 and that's what I ordered but they swallowed my feet. The pair I received seemed to have been sent to others multiple times because the size on the inside of the shoes were so faint, I could not see exactly what size the shoes were to know what I had. I sent them back and was not able to reorder as they no longer had a 6 1/2. Even though they were too big, they still felt very comfortable. Wish they had fit.

It is really difficult for me to find dress shoes. My foot is wide with a high in step. These are so comfortable! I bought the Navy Squarekid, they look very nice and they are so comfortable they don’t feel like a dress shoe. I was a little surprised to see that the thread on this color way is shiny, but for me that adds to the look. I bought a 10 1/2. Usually I wear anywhere between a 10 and 11 in brands like Clark, Born, and Korkease; this is my first experience with this brand and I think I’ll be back for more!

The fit of the shoe is great- plenty of room in the toe box for my wide feet. Spent the first day waiting to see when my feet would hurt and by the end of the day I was pleasantly surprised that they didn't and I walked a fair distance. Fabulous arch support. Worth every penny!

I have enjoyed wearing Ara shoes for several seasons, but this is first dress pump. I think it is a handsome shoe with the blue pattern and is comfortable.

Very comfortable! I was able to wear them for hours standing and walking.

I’ve been searching for a closed toe healed professional shoe… that’s comfortable. This shoe gives me the height I like and all day comfort! Love them !!

Very happy. Certainly not inexpensive, but absolutely worth it. Wore them for a day of work right out of the box with no problems. I like that the vamp is a bit higher than most pumps. Exactly what I was looking for.

I never review things I buy but I just had to for these shoes. They are the perfect combination of comfort and style. The style is a basic pump which means it will never go out of style, and the patent dresses it up. But the best part is that they are SO comfortable you can walk in them gracefully and wear them all day and night!

This shoe is very comfortable. Was able to wear for the very first time for hours with total ease while doing considerable walking. While I’m not accustomed to less than a 3 inch heel, this shoe with its platform and shorter heel really is a game changer for me. Ara has a new customer.

The platform makes these feel like I’m walking in flats

I purchased Ara Ophelia pumps in other prints and they are a perfect fit at 9.5, which makes me want more colors. The navy with the diamond pattern looked used and distressed, which is not the intended look. The how fit well. These are a comfortable style for walking, and other prints I have purchased are lovely. FYI with this brand, The Kendall pump does not fit in size 9.5 it was tight in the toes.

The shoe looks nice, but it does not hold the heel properly in place, so it felt a bit too large while the width was right. When I called your help line the agent was very helpful and wonderful to work with, correcting an earlier order, so it is too bad the fit didn't work.

I’m normally a size 9 1/2 medium width —bought this in a 10, and could barely get my foot into it. Narrow and small. Trying a10.5 because it’s a nice shoe, hopefully that works.

I ordered a women's size 5. The shoe is stamped as size 5 by the manufacturer; however it is most likely at size 7. Completely unwearable by anyone who normally wears a size 5 or 5 1/2.

I ordered a size 9, and recived a size 6. Obviously, someone made a mistake

I normally wear 5.5 or 6. I ordered a 6 and it was humongous. It felt like a 7.5. I could stick four fingers in the back. Not sure what's going on.
