Best Flops Ever
" These are awesome. They look great--a little fancier than plain flip-flops and they feel even better. The extra straps make my feet feel more secure and supported; the arch support is nice too.
They took a couple of wears to break in the straps.
Pro-tip: wash them with baking soda every couple of weeks. The soft sole will absorb smells.

Look good and feel pretty good
" I bought these for my husband. They look great with jeans or casual slacks/shorts. Not perfect for a day of walking though; very little arch support.

Great Flat
" I walked all over DC in these and felt great. The insoles have just enough cushion and there is a nice amount of traction. Because of the elastic sides, these flats won't slide off my heel like so many others do. I bought them in navy blue and can wear them with jeans, or a nice dress.

Fantastic Price
" I bought my first pair of these awesome running shoes at a specialized running store after being fitted and trying them out. I love them and ran two half marathons in them, but I paid a pretty penny.
A close friend told me that DSW started carrying the PureConnect and when I saw they were only $70 I bought 2 pairs! I'm excited to train for the MCM and another half marathon in my economical and high quality shoes!
FYI, these are very lightweight running shoes and because they are made with fewer heavy rubber materials, they will wear out about 100 miles sooner than the bulkier shoes. So, if you plan to run long distances in them, you may want to invest in multiple pairs.

Thoughtful Design!
" These are lightweight and the straps are arranged to support each curve on the ball of your foot. They do not have a lot of cushion, which makes them less comfortable to walk in all day, but for short spurts, or with added massage gels they are pretty good.
I love the bright color combo! It's the perfect pop for my summer outfits.

Classic Style
" I like the sturdy heel on these pumps. They are pretty high, but I don't feel wobbly at all in them. Unlike some other "sturdy" pumps, these have a classic, feminine look that is great for work.
They are a bit narrow, even for someone like me who has pretty narrow feet. I did not go a size up since the length was just right so they pinched the first time I wore them out. The leather finally stretched out a bit so that they are no longer too tight.

" I have gotten compliments on the Jayne sandal every time I've worn them.
They have a nice bit of cushion in the sole and very soft, supple leather to make them pretty comfortable. The thong did rub a little the first time i wore them, but it broke in quickly.
I have found them to run a tad small. I usually wear a 7, but that size was too short for my foot. The 7.5 is a tiny bit too long, but that's barely noticeable and they fit much better everywhere else.
Also, I LOVE the tomato red color! These fun little flats turn any outfit into something special.

" The faux leather is of good quality: soft, flexible and durable. I love the braided chain accent as well. The soles are hard, but not uncomfortably so. I wore these all day walking around Old Town Annapolis and on the MD Eastern Shore without any pain or discomfort!
Take a look at how cute and beachy they are!

Stiff Fake Leather
" The braided straps in these sandals look very nice in the photos, but the black ones at least look like cheap molded plastic in real life.
Also, I am a small 7 in most shoes. I ordered these in a 7.5 after reading other reviews and they were STILL snug on my feet. The plastic leather was too stiff and would have caused serious chafing blisters if I were to walk in them.
These will be going back.

Kind of scary...
" These were a gift to me...i had to return them because they reminded me of this creepy rafia doll that my parents brought me from the Bahamas when I was 4. It gave me nightmares.

Classic
" I bought these for my 21 year-old brother and I was happy to see how much he liked them. He said they were a little stiff the first day he wore them, so he opted to break them in while wearing socks. After that, he's been able to wear them everywhere with everything from swim trunks to nice khakis.

In the Nude: Practical and Pretty!
" Being tall, it is hard to find a pair of nude pumps that do not make me feel that I am about to topple over and snap my ankle. All the trends right now are for sky-high platforms that just do not work for me.
These cute little babies, however, have the lengthening effect of other patent nude pumps without the safety hazard. Good cushion in the front; ample room for toes--no smashing; cute little round toe; do not chafe the heel. I wear a seven in most shoes and these are true to size.

Takes breaking in.
" These shoes are very pretty, but wear them for a couple hours at home to break in the toe before you wear them out. It is rather stiff right out of the box.
Otherwise, they are flattering and perfectly professional.

Rock 'em
" I adore my Keds. After 3 days of breaking them in, I'm able to wear them comfortably without socks. The insoles mold to your feet and give good arch support. I love how versatile they are. I can wear them with everything from rocker jeans to floral sun-dresses.
I had to go down half a size because they run a bit long. I would LOVE it if DSW would carry more colors.

Best Nude Pumps Ever
" These have great cushion and the heel incline is not too severe. I put some of those Dr. Scholl's gelly things in them to give them more arch support and it greatly increased the amount of time I was able to stand and walk in them.
A+ for these pumps.

Ugly and Painful
" I'm not sure why I bought these when I saw them online. Once I put them on my feet, I knew I had made a mistake.
The straps are stiff and hit my foot in odd places so that the overall look was that of a straight jacket on my foot. I could barely trot in them. I felt like a newly born foal who hasn't gotten used to taking steps yet.

Looked Good in the Box....
" ...but once I had them on my feet, they managed to look both too big and too small. The area around my big toe was stretched till the pointy toe puckered but there was a 1/4 inch gap behind my heel. No other shoe has done that for me. Very weird.

Just OK for me
" I generally love Tahari as a rule. These have slightly less cushion on the balls of the feet than do other Tahari styles I have worn.
I purchased the "Alpaca" color but am going to see if I can replace them for the "Nude" because the ones I have look a little olive greenish. I would prefer a more neutral tone to elongate my legs.

Not for Tall Girls
" I'm 5'9" and thin. These tights look really cute, but even the largest size is too short for me. Because they are sweater knit instead of micro fiber or nylon, they are not as stretchy as most tights, so the crotch is about 6 inches below where it should be.
I'm sad that I will have to return them.

Thoroghly Disappointed
" I thought these looked cute online, but the fabric is funky in person. It looked like cheap canvas with splotchy paint stains. The pattern is simply ugly.
Also, the toe and ball of foot have a weird fit. There was a big gap by my big toe joint when I took a step and the super pointy toe was too flexible so it also bent while I was walking.
These will be going back.
