Great boots
" I have always had problems fitting my calves into boots, then I realized I should just get shorter boots. But not ankle boots, these are the perfect in between height. Love the details/hardware, also got them for a great price so you can't beat it. I wear 8.5 and these fit true to size.

Great Workout Sock
" I bought these on a whim when I was purchasing a new gym bag online. I normally wear Thorlo Experia socks to compare and while those are thicker, I think these are just as supportive and comfortable. I only walked in them today, I didn't run, but I don't anticipate any problems. The only concern I have is that they are kind of short so I'm worried that they might slip down into my shoe while I'm running, which would not be good. But not issues while walking around campus today. I like the anatomical fit and labeling, as well as the zippy colors. Overall great value compared to other running socks that run up to $15/pair.

Great Walking Sandal
" This is my first pair of Sketchers, but I bought them from a recommendation from my mom. She has a pair too and she would wear them when she was on her feet at work for a few hours a day. I walk about 1/2 mile round trip to my building where I work and changing into gym shoes is a hassle if I'm going to wear heels when I get there, plus its really weird looking. Wearing the heels themselves is out of the question for me, so I needed a shoe that I could throw on to walk in and not have any problems with my knee. This is that shoe/sandal. They are so comfortable right from the get go, no breaking in necessary. I give 4/5 stars because I don't think they're very attractive. My boyfriend calls them my treehugger sandals. But they serve their purpose very well and I wear them a lot if I know I need to walk around but don't want to wear gym shoes. They provide the comfort without the rest of the shoe, which is very nice in the summer.

WE LOVE THE PEGASUS
" My boyfriend and I both got fitted for running shoes at our local running store and we both walked away with a pair of Nike Pegasus 28's. I'm glad we did it because it turns out that he had been buying his shoes too big, and I had been buying mine too small. I think that women's Nike shoes run narrow anyway, so pay attention to what kind of socks you will be wearing when you run. If you wear thicker socks and notice that your feet kind of pooch out on the side, I would try to find a wide width, which this shoe does come in. Anyway, since we know what size we are now, we usually just buy them online because you can get better deals and more color options. We love the Pegasus. They're a wonderful running shoe with great support and excellent comfort. Both of us were suffering from calf and shin pain that was virtually gone after switching to this shoe. We just bought these in more colors to kick around in because we love them so much. They're seriously the most comfortable shoe we've ever owned.

Order Bigger
" I've gotten in the habit of trying on shoes in store before ordering them online, mostly because they never have the colors I want in store and I'm tired of sending stuff back that doesn't fit if I haven't tried it on. Gym shoes are so finicky as far as sizing, and Saucony's are no exception. I wear 8.5 in almost everything, 9 in some Nikes (but not others), and 9.5 in these Saucony's. The colors are beautiful in person and the shoes are very light weight but with a lot of padding and comfort. They will be wonderful for summer walking/jogging shoes.

Super Cute
" I bought these today and I love them. I like Rocket Dog flats but to me they are always too flat and I feel like I'm just walking on the ground. These are a good compromise. I love kitten heels and kitten wedges, when done right, are even better. The fabric on these is metallic and crisp. I love it. These will be great to wear with everything, I think they can easily be dressed up or down. I wish they had more colors in my size! Speaking of which, I bought an 8.5 which is my normal size, but there is a touch a room in the heel. I tried on the 8 but they were too small in the toes, so I'll just have to see if I can deal with it and if not add an insert or something. Well worth the price - yay Rocket Dog!

AH-MAZING
" I found these by chance the last time I was in DSW looking for flats. I wear casual gym shoes to work all the time because I'm also in school, plus we have to park about 1/4 of a mile from our building. For me, nice, supportive shoes are a must. When I picked these up I thought for sure that they would have no support because they are so light but I was totally wrong. They're so supportive and comfortable, I pretty much wear them everyday. Plus they come with navy laces as well in case you want to change them. I wanted them in grey and pink but can't find them now - please restock because they're amazing and I need more!!!

Best Gym Shoes Ever
" I happened on these by chance my last visit to DSW and could not be happier. I HATE clunky gym shoes, and when I picked these up I thought for sure that they would have no padding or support in the sole but I was so wrong. These are so lightweight they're amazing, but they also offer great support for me when I'm walking into work. I also love that they have an old school look to them. I have not tried to exercise in them since I just use them for casual walking, so I can't offer an opinion in that aspect of the shoe. These are just perfect for a casual gym shoe. I got them in the grey/white and navy, and they also came with navy laces in case I wanted to change out the white ones. I wanted the grey and pink but they didn't have my size. I was hoping that they would have more on the site but it doesn't look like it - please restock so I can match them with everything I own!!

Cutest!
" I bought a pair of black leather BOC flats two summers ago and I have worn them out (plus they kind of smell). I have been searching since this winter for nice black flats to replace them and I finally found these. I am in love! With all BOC shoes you get a nice support in the sole and they are also very high quality shoes so well worth the price. I've never had a pair of BOC's fall apart on me in any way. The bow is WONDERFUL. Just what I was looking for (the flowers that they have out now are just not my thing). I'm planning on buying them in bone as well. With my other shoes from BOC as well as these, they rub my heel in the back for the first couple of wears and then the leather stretches to match my feet. Hence, four stars instead of five. Overall very happy with my purchase and would recommend.

Wonderful!!
" I ordered these in Bone in my normal size. They were a touch short so I ordered the next size up, which is what I sometimes have to do anyway with heels. These shoes are even more beautiful in person. The heel is perfect for work in spring/summer, and the color will look great when it's time to get a tan again! The embossed G is legendary and the little chain on top is perfection. Hopefully I will get my new size soon and the weather will warm up so I can wear them to death!!

Ehh...
" I ordered the zebra print ones in my normal size online. I did not like them when they arrived. The coarseness of the fabric did not go well with the shininess of the ribbon and bow in my opinion. I only ordered the zebra because the gray and the black were out in my size. However, if they were restocked I would purchase again in one of the other colors. I only wore them for a couple of minutes, but I did feel some tightness on the top of my foot. Nothing a little wearing in wouldn't fix I don't think. Also, they seemed really comfortable in the time that I wore them. They also look really narrow, but don't feel tight when I wear them, which lends to a nice, slender silhouette. So, overall, I like the shoe, but I don't like the fabric, so please restock!

Surprisingly Comfy
" I bought these to wear with skirts and capris for work in the summer because I have a billion pairs of flats and wanted something more like a sandal to also wear out to dinner and stuff when it's hot outside. These are excellent. It took me a while to decide between the 9 and the 9.5, even though I usually wear an 8.5. The 9 was kind of tight but the 9.5 was too big. Overall, great looking shoe and very comfy. Easy to dress up or down as well.

Great Bag - Great Price
" I bought this bag when I went into a DSW to try on the Miss America shoes. I bent over and happened to glance up at the handbags and there it was, staring back at me, softly whispering, "take me hooommmeee," and I did! I've been using it for two months as a purse and a bag for school and I have no complaints. There is ample space for all of my junk plus my school books and I love the outside pockets for my keys and badge for work. I also love that it looks similar to my custom Longchamp - which cost 4x as much! I've read that some people are disappointed with the fact that the zippers are only sprayed gold, but how often are you walking around with them open? I think that the bag looks more luxe than the $40 I paid and I'm glad I made the purchase.

Cute but too Big
" I bought these online since they weren't available in my local DSW (what else is new?) and was very excited when they arrived the same week. However, I have a very hard time finding boots because I have athletic calves with smaller (8.5) feet in comparison. I ordered these in a 9, which is what I normally have to do with boots. They were WAY too big and I had to return them. They fit in the calf with jeans, but the shoe part was at least a full size too large. Try these on in the store if possible. Very cute, wish they had fit.

Great Bootie!
" I love these booties! I am a die hard Nine West fan, and I have the pumps that resemble these booties. I am obsessed with the fact that these have a kitten heel! I've been searching for booties for at least two years that don't have a tranny heel and don't make me look like a nine year old and these definitely fit the bill. I normally wear an 8.5 in Nine West and these felt a bit snug in the ball of my foot (hence the 4 stars instead of 5). They are a nice, supple leather though, so I haven't decided if I'm going to return them or just see if they stretch. I don't think they will be too bad with tights though, which is what I bought them for anyway.

Great Winter Wedges
" I bought these in purple and I adore them. I think they run true to size since I ordered an 8.5 and they fit like they should. I felt a bit of discomfort on the outside of the balls of my feet after standing for prolonged periods, but after I sat for a while I was fine again, as expected. I plan to wear these to jazz up my normally black and grey work wardrobe. Plus they aren't a peep toe, so I can wear them with tights and trouser socks during the winter. Yay!

WONDERFUL!!!
" I. Love. These. Pumps. I was scouring the earth trying to find a cute pair of kitten heels and these definitely fit the bill. I prefer a kitten heel if possible to a flat because you achieve a more professional look for work, and these are awesome. The leather is soft and conforms to your foot and they hold up really well. I also feel like you avoid the 'fat foot look' that I get with other kitten heels. They get four stars instead of five however because if I wear them for a long time without taking them off they start to hurt my pinkie toes. I'm able to work around this by slipping them off for a few minutes when I'm at my desk at work. Buy these shoes! I want them in every color!
