This is such a cute shoe! I tried the lug sole loafer look, but it wasn't right for me. Then I found these, and I love them! I'm a size 7 or 7.5, and the size 7 in this shoe was too tight. The 7.5 fits perfectly and is comfortable even with my bunions.

Lovely shoe design and amazing insole padding. A bit narrower than other Sofft styles. I normally wear 9.5 in Sofft but had to go to 10 in these to get enough toe/wiggle room; the resulting gap at the back is fine since there now is less risk of heel rub. The patent leather on one of the shoes arrived damaged/marked, so I will be exchanging it.

Cute shoe but you need a bucket of crisco just to wedge them on your feet. I have never worn a wide width but I think you need a double wide to wear these. Way too small for my normal size of 10.

They look better in person and on. Style is as pictured but I think they look more polished and elegant in person. Will definitely be a go to for work. I wish Sofft made larger sizes because these fit almost narrow and have no room to wear with socks.

Love these! Comfortable right out of the box. So cute, look a little retro and fit with jeans, cropped wide leg trousers, long skirts or.midi length. Truly a wardrobe staple.

Very Happy with this purchase. Love that Mary Janes are back in fashion because I can't comfortably wear any of the ballet slipper/skimmer style.

The shoes fit and provided the usual
Soft comfort, but were squeaky. Also, the finish is a little rougher than I was personally looking for.

I ordered these in my normal size. Dang, these barely got wedged onto my feet and they hurt once I got them on. No way they are true to size. I don't have wide feet but could have used another 4 inches just to get it on. Cute shoe, bad sizing.

I like this shoe but unfortunately I needed a half-size longer. Returning this one and ordering a 9/5 instead of a 9. It is good with pants or a dress and comfortable.

I wear a 38 Medium with a narrow heel, non-fleshy foot & plantar fasciitis. This is my 'party' shoe! It stays on my foot because of straps, however, slightly too wide in the heel but with a generous toe box. Love the style which compares favorably with a very expensive pair (read no arch support & returned) from Bloomingdales - sort of that French gamine classic look with some arch support.

I usually get a half size up in dress shoes but these were still too small. Not ideal if you have somewhat high arches as the top of my foot was getting cut in by the shoe. My feet are a normal width and these were VERY narrow which made my foot feel compressed even while sitting. Had red marks showing up in multiple places after wearing for less than an hour. I’m very sad these didn’t work because they looked great.

The shoe fit but gapped a great deal when I walked. I also did not love the sparkly texture of the leather. prefer a smooth finish

Very soft inside.The insole is contoured and the raised sides made the pinky toe feel more squeezed. Insoles aren't removable. Cue shoes, well made, unfortunately, a little too tight in the toe box for my college-age skinny kid. We got size 7 . Wish this brand would have gone all the way in for healthy shoe shape and added just a bit more space. Almost there.

I am a consistent 7.5. The pair I received seemed more like a 6.5, so I had to return them. Be sure to size up!

Really cute and comfortable. I added a thin insole as my feet are narrow and need arch support. I usually wear an 8.5 to 9, and got a 9, which fit well. Wore all over London while walking on cobblestone and still comfortable.

Liked the style and fit of the shoe, but NOT the buckle. It is too small and difficult to handle. Would definitely consider keeping if there were a velcro closure.

These shoes worked perfectly for me. Just a tiny chunk heel, but easy walking. Ok for a 70 yr old!

I expected these to be uncomfortable because of how cute they are, but they’re comfortable enough to wear all day, and the best part was that they fit my wide feet!
