Super cute and very comfortable
" I wore these shoes all day long with no discomfort or rubbed spots on my feet. I bought the navy color. Color is very dark and true navy. The heel has a nice navy patent cap. These are very nice quality and I am ordering the black ones too.

Perfect Wedge
" I am normally a snob about my shoes being leather but I was desperate for a pair of grey shoes to go with my three grey suits. I gave these cute little shoes a try and I am not disappointed.
There was absolutely no break-in required. They give comfort all day. The fabric is holding up well and they are classy looking. I can no longer wear high heels but I still want to have a little bit of fashion in my shoes and these fit the bill perfectly. "

Too loose
" Sandal is very cute and of decent quality. I am very disappointed to have to send them back. I wear a 9.5 and the length is great. However, the straps across the toes and the instep are too loose and create a sloppy appearance. The ankle strap is fully adjustable and was fine on the tightest hole. But there is no way to adjust the other two straps.
This sandal would be perfect for someone with slightly wide feet.

Update from last year
" I bought this same sandal last year except for a slight change to the metal ornament. Love the old ones and the new ones. The new ones are black and pretty classy for a thong sandal. Fairly true to size but slightly wide.
Also note that this sandal is not made in 1/2 sizes. I ordered a 9.5 and received a 10. I am keeping though because the 9 would be too short.

Pretty blue
" I have a pair in a similar style from last year in black, but different placement of trim, so I was very happy to see blue this year.
They fit true to size in length and width for me. Nice navy blue color that is not too dark. Heel height is not high enough to cause discomfort. My only complaint is that the trim makes noise like a rattle when you walk on hard surfaces. It can be a bit distracting.

Dressy low heel
" Cute and inexpensive shoes. The front strap across the toes is a bit wide but I will keep them. I will just add a ball of foot pad to them to keep my foot from sliding around too much.
The fabric trim is very cute and keeps the shoe just formal enough for me to wear at the office. Love the low, patent heel for comfort.

Beautiful Shoe
" Love this shoe. So sad that I have to send it back.
It has a perfect heel height and is slightly dressy with the patent finish. However, the straps that cross over the top of the foot were too loose on me and there is no way to adjust that. My feet are slightly narrow and it showed in the fit of this shoe.

Weird Ankle Strap
" I ordered the navy pair. When the shoes arrived I had to check the box label because the navy was so dark I thought it was black. Strike one.
Next the ankle strap sits very high so that it is hitting the ankle bone. Strike two.
Finally, the fit on the ankle strap is generous enough that I had to tighten the strap to the first hole which messed up the horizontal alignment of the ankle strap making the vertical strap on the outside edge of the shoe stick out away from the foot ( if you always use the middle hole on ankle straps you probably will be fine.). Strike three.
Bottom line is too many strikes to keep them. I am not that desperate for navy sandals and will return them.

Just a little sparkle
" Love my latest pair of Sperry's. This is my first light colored pair. Shoes look just like the pictures on the website. The sides of the shoes have a subtle sparkle from the clear sequins over the leopard spot fabric. Stitching coordinates well with the leather color as does the sole color.
Really great price for a pair of Angelfish Sperry's. I saw these in the Department Store last spring for $90.
If you have never worn Sperry's before, please realize that there is a bit of a break-in period for some people. I order 1/2 size smaller than my heeled shoes. Then I wear them with socks for the first few times to protect my heel from the "biting" that has been reported. This method has worked with five pairs over the last two years.

Nice Quality
" I bought the black ones and these boots are nice quality and good construction. They have a good, anti-slip, lug sole which would probably be good for wet conditions.
Unfortunately for me, they are too big all around. They might work if you have a wide foot and larger calf. I normally buy a 9.5 in shoes and ordered a 1/2 size smaller in the boots which is typical for me. My feet were swimming in them even with adding UGG liners and thick socks. The ankles were baggy on me and the calves still had room in them even with my not-so-skinny jeans tucked into them. That being said, I would still recommend them to someone with a wider foot. They are beautiful boots with just the right amount of attitude.

Quality not great
" These shoes are very cute however, the quality leaves something to be desired. This particular pair arrived with glue smears on both shoes which I have not been able to remove yet. I will try Goo Gone next. Also, the leather trim around the top edge of the shoes is stained from moisture or glue so it doesn't have a consistent color. Alas, I will probably keep them because I really need a pair of navy shoes for court and am tired of searching.
Shoes are comfortable and just a tad long. Heel height is perfect and the heel is skinny so it doesn't look like my Grandmother's shoes.

Mrs. Lawyer Shoe
" Love these shoes. One client told me he knew I was a serious lawyer and would fight for him when he saw my shoes. So, yes, shoes matter.
I have been wearing these shoes for about two months. I treated them with suede protector before the first wearing. They are holding up beautifully. These shoes are very comfortable and formal enough for court for me. I wear them all day, sometimes from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. without discomfort. I am not just sitting on my backside either. I do plenty of walking and standing.
I would happily pay double the price if DSW carried some other colors as well.

Fabulous Boot
" These are absolutely perfect. I tried them on as soon as they arrived and didn't take them off. I have worn them for five hours today and they are totally comfortable with no breaking-in required. The leather is super soft. I just hope it is not too soft to hold up to heavy use.
The color is just like in the picture. The shaft may be a bit loose for a slim leg. No problem for me as I am wearing them with my jeans tucked in. I did order a half size smaller than my normal shoe size. However, I always order 1/2 size smaller in my boots. Even 1/2 size smaller is very roomy and I can wear thick socks which is of course my intent in the winter time.
The only complaint I have is that the box was totally crushed when I received it so I won't be able to use it to store my boots in the off season. It was sent in a bubble pack instead of a box probably due to the large size.

What happened to the quality?
" Bought these in the blue. The color was perfect. However, that is all of the praise I can give. Bought my usual 9.5 and this shoe is narrow and short. I could barely get my foot in the shoe. I bought a different style in Bandolino at the same time in a 9.5 and it fits perfectly. There was also a lot of smeared, dried glue around the edges on the sides and heel of both shoes. It looks very sloppy.
One other thing to note is that this shoe has a conical (cone) heel. I didn't notice this in the picture online but I am not a fan of conical heels.
Great color but going back to DSW.

New Fall shoes- super cute and good qualtiy
" Love my new grey shoes. Ordered my normal size 9.5 and it fits perfectly. Yes, they are real suede and the flower on the front of the shoe thankfully lays flat and doesn't stick up like in the picture. These are a darker grey which is exactly what I wanted. Nice heel but not too high. They also have a beautiful lining inside and a cool metallic purple sole. I would definitely buy again if they had black, purple or burgundy for fall.
Shoe feels comfortable after a few hours in my office. Hopefully it will be good for all day wear.

So disappointed
" Wanted these beauties to work but was not to be. The online description is slightly off as to heel height and platform height. I try not to buy shoes with more than a 3" net gain from toes to heel (comfort issue for my feet).
Description said 4" heel and 1" platform. In actuality the shoes have a 4.5" heel and a .75" platform so net gain of 3.75"-just too much for me.
I also had a problem with the heels being too wide and the shoe slipping off my feet as I walked. The length was perfect.
Quality was very nice except that this leather shoe is lined with man-made material. Not what I expected from Via Spiga. The color is very dark grey, almost charcoal, just like the picture. The non-slip sole would probably be really good on slick streets.

Comfortable and classy
" I bought these shoes last year in the red/nude/brown color. I have worn them many times now to work. I do considerable walking from the courthouse to my office and they have never rubbed my feet. They are true to size and fit well. Also after a year of use, they are holding up nicely. I probably will order the black pair now.

Cute summer wedges
" I am so disappointed I have to send these back. They are so cute. The fabric is casual but the heel covering is first rate. They felt very comfortable and balanced when I put them on. However, the straps are too wide across the toes and around the ankle even adjusted to the first hole. If you have feet that tend to be wide, these shoes are probably great for you.

" Cute shoes and a true red color. Unfortunately, the straps across the toe area are too loose. Have to send them back. I can't comment on comfort as I didn't wear them.

Too short
" Really beautiful shoes. They are just too small. Apparently this brand runs a bit small as the other pair I bought (same brand, different style) were too short as well. Free return shipping took care of the problem. I can't comment on comfort as I didn't wear them.
