Simple Toepaz Shoe - Women's - 2008 BCS

These shoes are fabulous! My sister has a pair and I'm so glad she convinced me to get some!

Definitely go for the half-size bigger...my feet are so skinny, I thought I could get away with my normal size, but ended up having to make an exchange!

Comfy for long days of walking...and look great with everything!

Buy a pair and enjoy them too!!

These shoes are excellent. Warning: they DO take about a week's worth of consistent wearing to break them in, whether touring San Francisco by foot, or just wearing them around the office at work. Yes, be sure to order a half-size up, I got a 7.5 at first, which is normally what I wear, and had to UPS ship them back to get an 8. The 8 is just perfectly snug. I did get blisters the first week, and thought about returning the shoes, but after wearing them more, they fit better. My advice is, yes to get them, but be aware that being patient to break them in is a virtue.

I love these shoes. They're unusual enough that everyone notices them. If you want something fun, comfy and different, these are for you. The only problem I see is that the sizing is off. On the recommendation of another website, I ordered a half size up. I normally wear a 9 and got a 9.5. They are BARELY big enough. I think a 10 would be too big though because they're wide enough that a larger size could be too wide. I wear them all the time and love them!! I'd give them a 4.5 on the scale of 1-5, based on the sizing challenge!

Got these shoes a while back and agree that they do take a bit of wearing before they will feel right. I am consistently a size 9.5 and they are a little snug, but I fear that a larger size would not stay on my feet. Also, the insoles are bumpy, while I am not sure what the purpose of these bumps serves I do know that they can be a somewhat unforgiving especially when working an 8 hour shift at coffee shop (i.e. on your feet all day). But I do still wear them to work regularly so it must not be that bad right? Maybe the fact that they are so freaking cute and go with just about anything makes it all worth it?!

After reading some of the previous reviews I ordered a 1/2 size bigger then I normally wear and they are perfect!! I own a small business and I am on my feet all day and so far these shoes have held up. They are comfortable and look great, I get compliments on them all the time. Overall they have proven to be a great summer shoe!
