Customer Reviews Gola Elan

Size 10 was too small, barefoot, and size 11 was too large, with socks. I found these shoes narrow at the toes, wide at the ball of the foot, and weirdly stiff and elevated at the heel. Further, the stitching over the big toe area was annoying. Loved the colors and was disappointed to return.

Cute looking shoe in the box, but almost no cushioning, very flat, sole felt like stiff cardboard. Not so flattering on. I think it’s the gum sole and/or the shapeless toe (mildly rounded). Ran short for me.

Loved them way more comfortable than sambas, will buy other colors for sure! I have a wide foot so i sized up 1/2 a size and its perfect.

so cute but too narrow for me

Adorable overall and cute color combination. I ordered my normal size 10 and they were too small. Unfortunately, Gola doesn't make a women's 10.5. I returned them and got an 11, which were too big. Such a shame. They seem like they would be really comfortable.

They were a good fit all over. Loved the colors exactly as pictured!

These are my first pair of Gola sneakers. I read tons of reviews, and decided to choose my usual sneaker size 7.5. They seem to be a smidge longer than most 7.5's I wear, so I'm not sure yet if I want to try size 7 to compare. The width is perfect, and they accommodate the bunion on my larger foot. They are super comfortable, and the color and style are great! The neutral will go with everything. I recommend them!

The shoe itself is cute and fits well. I have a wide foot due to bunions and it felt very comfortable, but the toe box was so rounded it looked funny to me. That combined with such a bright color made me feel clown like. I couldn’t justify keeping for $110, but I may but a more subtle color like gray or black.

Absolutely love them! The color is such a fun blue and the shoes are comfortable right out of the box! No breaking in period needed!

My feet are size 7.5, and I normally wear size 8 in sneakers. Howeve, even in 8.5, this shoe was uncomfortable in the toe box.

I wish I liked this shoe because it’s fun and has a wide toe box which I need, but unfortunately I felt like I was wearing clown shoes. I could’ve sized down .5 but didn’t feel like it was worth it for the price.

The Gola Elan are very well-made, attractive shoes, made with high quality materials. However, I am returning them because they do not have the amount of arch support my feet need.

Size and fit were spot on. I normally wear a women's US size 9, and that is what I ordered. They fit perfectly. And, they could not be cuter!

Love, love, love! Comfortable right out of the box. Great with jeans.

Too small, had to return LOVE the color and style though!!!

Did not try on. Didn't realize that these shoes are SUEDE. Wanted a shoe to go into spring and summer that would be relatively easy to clean. Sole material (plastic?) looks cheap.

I love the look of of these cute sneakers and was so disappointed that they turned out to be very wide in the toe box. My foot moved around too much and also felt too big in the heel.

Fit was great, love having a sneaker that offers some style. Can dress up jeans and a t-shirt. Or cute with a blazer and jeans at work.

Love the gola! So cute and fun.

I love the Elan style. Hard to choose my favorite color. So good.

Like most golas, I sized down 1/2 size from 8 to 7.5 and it fit great.

I love the classic retro style. Moderately comfortable. Perfect neutral color.

I really like the Gola Elan. The color was not as I expected.

I had no idea how much I would love these. They were comfortable from day one and didn’t need any time to break in. They’re flattering and versatile. They run a little large. I’m on the fence about buying a second pair a half-size smaller.
