I have been trying to find a comfortable black semi-dressy shoe as my second pair of traveling shoes (first pair being sneakers). This pair is well made and I like the non slip sole. They have a chunky look, but they’re cut. I wear a size 8. Sometimes a 38 fits me, sometimes a 39. I ordered these in 38 and they were too small. I decided they weren’t going to be the right shoe for travel unless I had a lot of time to break them in, as the leather is quite stiff.

I ordered these shoes online and they were very disappointing. They did not have the lug sole and heel as pictured. Instead, it was a smooth sole and heel. Also, the leather was very thin. My big toe pushed up through the leather. I returned them immediately.

I expected more. The leather is stiff and unlined/rough inside. The heel is high against the back of my foot. Returned.

I liked the look of these shoes. They are cute and comfortable. The only issue is that I normally wear a size 8 1/2 and that’s the size I ordered. They are slightly too large but since they don’t come in the 1/2 size smaller I would need, I’m going to keep them. Since I bought them to wear this fall and winter, tights should make them fit better. I love the lug soles and feel that they will do well during the snow and ice this winter.

Super cute and comfortable

This shoe is really cute and comfortable. However it’s slightly too big for me. I ordered a 37 and usually wear a 6 or 6.5. I think I would need a 36 but sadly it’s not available. Reviews said if between sizes to order a size up but that didn’t work for me. These will be going back.
