Customer Reviews Dolce Vita Notice Stitch

These shoes fit oddly. They seem like they would be TTS if not for the GIGANTIC heeled insole inside them. It’s made like a wedge-heeled shoe (flat at the toes, rising to at least an inch thick through the heel.) So your heel sits up high in the ankle of the shoe while wearing. Problem is, the height of the insole makes the toe box fit very tight. Even after loosening the laces as far as possible. With the insole removed, the shoe itself fits well in the toe box, but the leather comes up so high around the ankle that it rubs against my ankle bones and feels really awkward and uncomfortable. Design fail. Bottom line: if you remove the insole and buy your own, I think they would fit TTS. I bought the black onyx, they are very cute and they otherwise seem well made. I’m disappointed because it’s hard to find a black sneaker that has some style and doesn’t look like your grandma’s black sneaker. Returning because I feel like I can find a sneaker that fits me better.

They are so cute but they are tight in the front and I have a narrow foot. They seem to losen a bit over time but still not as roomy in front as I would like. Maybe try 1/2 size up. They are cushioned and super fun style. I get tons of compliments on them

I sized up half a size to 8.5 after reading reviews but I should have ordered true to size. Sole is thick but seems to provide some cushion. Unfortunately my size is sold out so I couldn't try on a 8.

Not sure why the description says they are faux fur and faux leather because on the Dolce Vita site it says they are real calf hair and real leather. Disappointed that they are mislabeled for someone who doesn't wear leather or fur.

I liked the looks of Dolce Vita Notice stitch , but the fit is odd and the insole is really weird too. It was tight fitting even with strings loosening. I had to send back.

Fit is as described. I ordered my usual size. I have this sneaker in 2 colors.

I have many DV sneakers and these were the most uncomfortable and I think it’s the material but in general they run small and narrow.

This a really cute shoe but runs small in the width and toe box. Had to reorder half size bigger. Insert is oddly large and pushes your foot forward. Tried another insert but it was too low , then the back rubs.

TRUST the other negative reviews - bizarre 1 inch tall insole throws the fit off Crazy high insole heel shoves your toes in a weird and tight angle. When I removed the insole and put in a normal one, there's a strange lump on the sole footbed near outside of heel. It literally had me limping as I walked. Wonder if the overly high insole was to hide the odd lump at sole of footbed. Hard no - returning.

I ordered a size 8 and it was so small I couldn't even get my foot all the way in! They are super cute, but I have no way to gauge what size to order to get a typical size 8 shoe. BEWARE!
