Customer Reviews Nine West Flax Pump

Tight toe box never seems to break in. I've worn these multiple times a week for a few months and still have pressure on my little pinkie toe and the ball of my toe. They look nice but are not nearly as comfortable as my last pair of NW pumps. Comfort: Walking about 1/4-1/2 mile is OK with handbag in hand. My feet hurt if I'm lugging a laptop with me on daily commutes and hiking to a gate at the airport. Livable, but not as comfortable as my last pair of Nine West pumps of the same height, but a different model. I think the toe box is just a bit too short to allow for a little needed wiggle room, even for my short toes. Note to NW - Please bring back the longer pointer toe.

This shoe looks great, perfect for work. I will note that the inner lining has completely come unattached. The overall quality is not great but okay at this price. To be fair I wear these to work almost daily and they did hold up 5 months. About to buy my second pair knowing they'll last a few months.

So I've had these shoes for 8 months now and it's time to retire them. The leather has worn completely away on the heel and I've built up some pretty intense calluses on the balls of my feet. I wear them for 8 hours a day at work. They are very pretty, but I'm disappointed they didn't last very long.

I really was hoping that these shoes would work. These are the most uncomfortable pair of Nine West pumps I have ever owned. They pinched my joint on my big toe. It gave me a blister. I think it is the inner seam at the edge that is the problem. They are really nice looking and would have been great with my uniform (I am a flight attendant). But I am throwing them out. :(

Narrow for me but I have wide bones at the base of my toes. Pretty shoe though - a little small but maybe not a whole half size.

A little small but Nine West shoes just don't work for my feet. Otherwise, it's a nice looking shoe.

I was sorely disappointed by these shoes! Usually Nine West can do little wrong, but I have to agree with another reviewer who claimed to like their "Barbe" style better. This shoe has a very narrow toe box, is stiff, and the sueded doesn't have a good nap to it. It's very flat and feels like a fake sueded shoe. Not good! These are so going back!

I have to say, I prefer the old Barbe style pointed flats better. The point on these is shorter and the outer edges rub a bit at first.

I ordered this shoe in a 6½ and 7. I love the look of the shoe but unfortunately the 6½ showed way too much toe cleavage. The 7 was not much better plus the gap in the back was way too big to be attractive. I do not think I have extra long toes. My other Nine West shoes show the tops of the toes, too. Maybe it is me, maybe it is the way the company cuts the shoe. The shoe is sexy and did not feel bad when I put it on, so if you do not have the toe cleavage problem, then this shoe could be for you.

My 8 year old like totally loves these shoes even though she had the heel like totally loose in a week or so, but she still wears them all the time.

The size was true to size but the width was definitely not Wide! Disappointed because otherwise they are a beautiful shoe with good support.

The color is spot on, however, they look and feel cheap as the material is man made and quality isn’t what I expected.

It took me :30 to realize at try on that these were going back. They were matronly on and uncomfortable out of the box.

These were very stiff shoes. I'm not sure if they'd be easy to break in or not, as I only wore them two times to work in an office and the plastic covering the heel came off. They weren't nice enough for me to want to get them repaired so i threw them out after only 2 wears. Waste of money.

These shoes are arrow and and changing the length will not help the overall uncomfortable fit. Its a very basic shoe and otherwise would have been good for the office.

These shoes are very attractive, however they are also very uncomfortable. I’ve worn Nine West shoes for 10+ years and these do not feel like any shoe I’ve worn from the brand in the past.

These were super weird. I ordered a size 8, which is my average size (depending on brand and shoe, I can wear anywhere from a 7.5 to a 9.) The length of the shoe from the ball of my foot to the heel felt a full inch too short, and because of how high the top of the shoe comes over my toes, I had no flexibility to comfortably walk. My foot felt immoveable. Maybe if I'd ordered a larger size they would have been longer and I wouldn't have had the issue, but then they would have been too wide. Just overall... really odd heel. Also didn't realize how high the top of the shoe came over the toes. Not attractive, in my opinion.

The color is beautiful but the shoes are not comfortable. Sad about it but I had to return them.

The design on this shoe is super odd looking. Specifically, the amount of coverage over the front of the foo looks like a costume shoe. I ordered neutral kid leather and thought it was cheap looking and I'm not super picky about this (i.e. my typical brands are around this price point). If aesthetics are not high on your list and you still want to order, I would recommend going a half size up. They run on the small side because of the longer pointed toe. These didn't make the cut for me so they went back.

I have been wearing Nine West pumps for decades. (8-1/2 M). I have now ordered and returned TWO pair. Suddenly they are much too big, too wide. Whatever changes they have made in manufacturing is most definitely not for the better. I will have to find a new brand of pump. Bye Bye Nine West.

The fabric isn’t stiff enough and bad creases appeared at both toes. Front is peeling already. Poor quality.

I have these in black and thought the Ligna Kid would be the same shoe that I loved. The fit was totally different. They felt at least a half size too large. I am disappointed. Pretty shoe though.

Way smaller than a standard size. Would recommend going at least one size smaller.

This shoe is absolutely beautiful but it feels very narrow. I had to return. I typically don't wear a wide width but I could barely get the shoe on my foot. I feel like it is made for those with narrow feet - only.

I have worn NW Flax shoes for years. It is the only pump I can wear for several hours and feel fine. I have just about every color. This shoe does not fit like a normal flax show. It dug into my heal. I even tried on my other flax pumps to compare. Pretty but going back.
