Comfort

Pros:

  • "I love these shoes! These are the most comfortable shoes that I have purchased in a very long time."
  • "Slip into these flats for all day comfort."
  • "Really surprised by how nice these are! Purchased a 10 wide and they’re perfect. I feel like I could wear them all day and remain comfortable."
  • "No lie they are sooooo comfortable they are low not much heel which is flats but it made my feet feel good."
  • "These shoes are comfortable, fit as expected, and are stylish."
  • "These are the most comfortable flats I ever had."
  • "They are very comfortable with a lot of cushion and fit exactly as expected."

Cons:

  • "Pointed toe is extremely closed off and uncomfortable. The tops of my toes were literally cut and bleeding by the end of the night."
  • "Will not buy again very uncomfortable pair bought it for my son wedding my feet hurt so bad after wearing these shoes don't recommend."
  • "They’re also not very comfortable. I wore them for 4 hours and my feet were done for."
  • "These shoes were way too tight and very uncomfortable! I would of needed to go up two sizes for them to possibly fit my daughter."
  • "I wore these to work for one day and my feet were hurting by half-way through my shift (5th hour mark) and the soles were completely flattened."
  • "These aren't the most fashionable shoes but they are decent and pretty comfortable."
  • "I love the way these shoes look, but they are unbearably uncomfortable, which defeats the entire point of wearing flats."

Fit and Sizing

Pros:

  • "I was a little hesitant about ordering my size since a lot of the reviewers mentioned they run large, but I went with my gut and ordered my usual 8-1/2. Glad I did."
  • "I have a wider foot. I usually size up to accommodate my wider foot in a pointier shoe. In this case I also did and found them too big. I reordered in my exact size and in a wide and they fit wonderful. I got 2 pair and love them both."
  • "I ordered my usual size and they fit perfectly."
  • "They actually fit perfectly and had very soft silky padding which really surprised me."
  • "I ordered these after my Chinese laundry flats have finally fallen apart enough.. I’m a size 8, got the 8 and they fit great."
  • "The bedding is great, so comfy. I have long slender feet, these shoes fit perfectly (size 10) and I bought them in 3 more colors."
  • "They are true to size. I ordered a 10W. I am a size 10 and usually don’t get wide but pointed toe shoes usually run small. These do not."

Cons:

  • "They are huge!!! They’re much longer and like 1.5 times wider than the rounded toe shoes."
  • "These flats look very pretty on and seem to run true to size with the exception of the width - they are too loose in the width."
  • "Every time I order shoes online they come smaller than normal so this time I said let me play safe and order my regular size 7.5 but wide and they fitted like a size 9 👎."
  • "I bought these in an 8 1/2 wide, which would be my normal size. I have never been able to wear flats, they always hurt my feet, and they don’t stay on properly."
  • "I wear a 5 1/2-6 and the 6 is a little large but not unwearable."
  • "I’m size 6 or 61/2 I ordered 61/2 and boy if they were super iper huge."
  • "I’m a 9.5 and these shoes run HUGE. I literally had to size all the way down to a size 8!"

Quality and Durability

Pros:

  • "After receiving them and trying them on I can immediately tell that these will work out great."
  • "These shoes exceeded my expectations both in quality and comfort!"
  • "They seem like they will last too and might end up being a shoe that I will wear around a lot."
  • "For the discount price I paid, I should have bought multiples."
  • "These are fantastic quality shoes for the price!"
  • "These were much better quality than I expected for the price."
  • "I would recommend everyone give this product a try since the price point is very reasonable."

Cons:

  • "However, they peeled on the tips after only a couple of times of wearing them."
  • "The reason for low stars is the first time I wore them, I must have bumped something and it tore right through the faux brown leather."
  • "Simple but very cute and comfortable. After having them on the shelf for a long time I finally decided to wear them for the first time and when I took them off I noticed the stitches on the back coming off on only one shoe."
  • "These felt really cheap and didn't last long enough. I bought them for work and after about a week wearing them, they started falling apart and just overall not comfortable."
  • "I have worn them once and although initially comfortable, they have already begun to wear out at the bottom after one wear."
  • "These are $20 shoes so my expectations were low but I had to throw them away after wearing them on a day where it rained."
  • "They are cheaply made: the shape of the two shoes doesn't quite match."

Style and Appearance

Pros:

  • "The rose gold shimmer is so beautiful and matched all my jewelry perfectly."
  • "I like the construction of these shoes, they slide on well and stay, not like some flats I've had where I have the tendency to step right out of!"
  • "These shoes are comfortable, fit as expected, and are stylish."
  • "This shoe is so adorable, and fits my wide foot perfectly, even though it was not specified to be wide."
  • "The pointed toe is sophisticated and these shoes are comfortable, versatile, and affordable."
  • "These are so cute. I bought them to wear with skinny straight leg jeans."
  • "I can’t believe how great these are! Comfortable, look sleek, can easily go to work, business casual, or with jeans."

Cons:

  • "Not cute, not comfortable, do not buy."
  • "Terrible appearance. Poor quality. Color was not quite matched. Left shoe appeared to have a crinkle."
  • "Purchasing a great deal for footwear online can be scary... however this poor shoe is not for me... disappointed when I opened the box... dull color."
  • "Just looking at them on my feet, they look awkwardly shaped."
  • "These shoes are exactly what you get for the inexpensive price."
