I am returning these shoes because the leather lip around the footbed of the heel is unbearable to walk on. Where did shoe designers get the idea that these little ridges might be a good idea? I bought 1/2 size larger to avoid this problem and still my heel rested on it when I walked. Otherwise they were keepers.

Love these shoes and constantly getting compliments. I am a size 9 and ordered a 9 1/2-10 and they fit great. Not loose or too big, just the right snug amount. Great arch support and heal cushion...my podiatrist said it's a great shoe for support for my PF but she would like to see a backing on the heel but she really liked this shoe too!

I might have kept these for hanging out only if they were more true to the color on Zappos, but as you can see from my daylight pics, they are a much, much lighter hue of turquoise than the darker shade shown in the description. The style was also not as cute in person — pretty wide looking and just not as stylish as it seems from the Zappos pics. Comfort was also only okay — after walking and standing around my house for about an hour, I felt a pain in my usual problem spots (ball of feet and near toes). Although they are at first soft and feel comfy, after a while I’d rather be barefoot. So sad these did not work out but I’ll be returning them.

I loved these BUT the thread on the insole is thick making the shoes VERY uncomfortable. The style is cute and I guess they would be okay if someone wanted to wear socks with them but for me the insole thread scratching the bottom of my foot didn't work so I returned them.

These are very comfortable although a little heavy. I love the design. The black color veers towards brown with the beige markings.

These shoes are super cute and comfy. The footbed is a little cushy and there's decent arch support. My foot measures as a 7 1/2 but I often wear an 8 because my foot is so wide. After reading the reviews I agree that these run small - I ended up in an 8 1/2 which is plenty wide and also tall enough for my high arch, which isn't often the case in this style of shoe. I got the black and love the contrast designs and stitching!

The shoes are beautiful. The color and style are one of a kind. I have had everyone complement on the shoes. some coworkers say they have to buy them. Excellent choice for anytime of year.

I have these in red, and was really pleased that a new pair are as comfy as the first that I've had for years and years. I have a wide foot, so the toe box is pure heaven. Love the boho style that works well with casual outfits. So comfy, they took about 30 minutes to "break in". I'm a teacher and love how these feel stable as I jig and jag around the classroom and log miles of walking per day.

These are super cute and have lovely padding inside. I find them comfortable. Definitely order a size or half a size up as they run small.

These are very cute, very nice Red color. The inside is slippery with shocks. The width is good. They are very short. I wear size 7 1/2. I ordered 7 1/2-8. I should have gotten size 8 1/2.

Cute shoes. Wide enough and fit my wide feet with high arches. But I was trying these on at the same time as a pair of Mephistos, and the spring step can't compare. The padding felt like it would wear out quicker. However, for a less expensive shoe, they are cute and would probably last a season or two.

Noisy when walking (a squeaky/squishy sound from footbed). Insides started to fall apart rather quickly for the price tag. VERY comfortable though.

So disappointed. Wanted to love them. They look so cute online. They are so cheap in real life. The flowers on the top were very bright on the right shoe and muted and faded on the left shoe. I am surprised they're genuine leather. They don't look or feel like it.

I wear a 7.5 and ordered a 38. Ordinarily I need to wear wide, but the toe box is very roomy. I don't wear heavy socks with them, just a regular weight sock. The padding in the sole is excellent. A friend tried them and felt the arch was not sufficient for her, she wears birkenstocks. I usually wear Dansko's and this arch support is comparable to them. The style of the shoe is very nice. I have gotten compliments everywhere I go. In a doctor's office last week two nurses both asked for the name brand, wrote it down (they were wearing dansko's) I even let them try them on!! they were sold on the spot.

I loved the unique look of this shoe so I bought it in blue. I usually take a 41 but after reading the reviews, I ordered the next size up. The second I slipped them on my feet I could've sworn I heard angels singing. I have the most difficult time buying shoes because I have a problem with swelling in my right foot and most shoes are too tight and I send them back. I also work on my feet 12 hours a day and need something comfortable. I promptly got online and ordered the brown and am on the notify list for the black too (which was sold out) because I love them so much. These are the cutest, most comfortable shoes I've ordered in years.....
I have since worn them to work and they were super comfortable and no fatigue in my legs or back by the end of the day. I want to buy every color!

I wanted a nice chic clog that was also comfy. These fit the bill. I started with the "carmel" which actually looks like a nice orange/rust, and then ordered the red, which led to Olive, because olive is THE color for fall, which then led to blue ones too. Sorry, they were so comfy and cute I wanted them all ! :) I ordered 39 which is what I wear for my size 8 feet and they fit beautifully, not too narrow and plenty of toe room. And the elastic by my high insteps fit perfectly. Highly recommend.

This is a beautifully made shoe, craftsmanship at its finest, quality leather and a super comfort fit but...order a half size larger. I am a true size 9 and the shoes I got were a size 40 (9) but they were too small. I will be exchanging them for the next size up.

My favorite shoes!! I wear them constantly and they are so comfortable. They’re more versatile than you might think and go with jeans, skirts, loungewear, even trousers. They do not slip off my foot, as I was afraid they might do. Love the pillowy sole!!

I love these shoes. Nice cushioning in the heel area. The red is so vibrant. No break-in time needed for these shoes. I’ll definitely buy more.

These shoes were comfortable right out of the box. I have arthritis in my feet and they felt so good I wore them the most of the day! They felt like they were made for me. The color was beautiful and the workmanship was excellent. I just ordered the black ones!

These fit wonderfully. I usually wear a 39 and these fit just right. Comfy and cute and I feel very secure wearing these even with my bad knees. I bought them in 3 colors and am hoping the blue ones get restocked so I can buy them too!

Love this shoe. First time wearing it today after toe surgery 2 days ago, and they feel wonderful! I usually wear an 8.5 and ordered a 39. They fit true to size,8.5. Great looking and feel comfy on my feet. I loved them so much I ordered the red. (ordered the Camel /orange first time) Love the color! Great for fall with olive colored clothes and with jeans! Can't wait for the Red to come. :) I have high insteps and they top is very comfortable. Highly recommend!

LOVE THIS SHOE! I got these for my mother who has a difficult time finding shoes to fit her small size 5 foot. She gets many, many compliments and loves these shoes. Thanks Zappos for getting them to her so quickly! You're THE BEST!
