Bought to replace Dansko professional clogs
" I am a grocery store checker so I mostly stand on my feet in one place 8 hrs/day. Bought these to replace my Dansko Professional Clogs. I like the Danskos even though they are a bit heavy and my heel slips out of them, which I was told is the way they are to be worn. With that said, I decided not to get Danskos this time because I wanted a bright color option which Dansko doesn't offer and I read good reviews elsewhere about this specific Klogs style. I always wear a 6 so ordered online and was surprised that there is still 1/2" of room at the toes when I wear medium thick socks (not sure if they are supposed to be like that). Toe box is roomy but someone with a very narrow foot may feel there is too much room. Other reviews implied the clogs are form fitting but my heel slips out 3/8" when i walk Not an issue for me due to being used to that with Danskos but this may feel odd to some people. The shoe has nice foam support inside unlike Danskos. The color is as bright and cheery as the photo shows. Although the shoes are cute, I get lots of compliments, and I'll be keeping them, they just aren't as comfortable as I expected. My feet feel fatigued after standing 8 hrs straight. These shoes might be better for people who are on their feet AND do a lot of walking around. I have no foot issues such as bunions, corns, or low arches.

So comfortable
" Was looking for a pair of heels to go with a silver halter type party dress that did not look as if they belonged on a bridesmaid or a conservative woman. These fit the bill. They are okay in a photo but even cuter on. I was initially afraid the bling would look too gaudy but I got lots of compliments by women and men. They were comfortable when I tried them on in store and remained comfortable after 9 hrs on my feet. I'm used to being in heels but even so the heel height ratio to sole was perfect. They are rear entry shoes so initially putting them on was awkward because the new shoe was stiff. The sole is not slippery so I was able to run around/dance without fear of slipping. Not sure how long the jewels will stay on but at least they seem to be sewn on and not glued. The shoes would also look good in jeans or a denim skirt. My daughter has a slight bunion so the shoes were not comfortable to her because the strap kept rubbing the bunion.

Comfy
" Bought these in black for my 14 1/2 yr old daughter. She said they are very comfortable as she is able to wear them all day at school. They do have a subtle pebbled look, which may not be desireable for some, that is hard to see in the online photos. Looks really good with skinny jeans or leggings.

A little disappointed
" in these riding boots that were listed at almost $200 because the leather is very stiff in the ankle area. I bought them online so was expecting a softer leather.If I previewed them in store I would not have been disappointed. They are true to size for my size 6 medium foot with enough room for tights or thin to medium socks. The heel height is comfortable. I have muscular calves so usually need at least 14" circumference. Although these are not specified as wide calf I was able to zip them up comfortable over jeggings. Slender calved women beware, you may be swimming in these. For those who have a short leg from ankle to knee you may run into my problem of the top of the boot cutting into the back of my knee when I sit down. It's tolerable because of the 1.5" piece of elastic at the top rear of the boot but not so comfortable on a 3 hr plane ride when I can't stretch my legs. But it was resolved by unzipping my boots halfway. I'll keep them since I like them and got them on sale but overall I was expecting to love them tremendously given the regular price of the boot.
