Cute Shoe But Not Great
" This shoe looked better online than in person. The fit of the shoe was slightly narrow, which for me means it felt okay when I tried it on but may have created problems later. If I had kept it and walked around in them for an hour or more they would have started pinching my little toe. They also felt a bit stiff which is an issue for me as well. I like my shoes to be comfortable from the start without having to endure an initial suffering period. Unfortunately, this did not work out for me.

Would Have Loved, but....
" These were perfect for what I had planned to use them for, a trip to Hawaii. However, in spite of loving the look and comfort of them, they are slightly too long for them to fit well. My heel slips out of them when I take a step. I think an insole might do the trick but I intended to use these in the water and I think my feet would slip out even more. Bummer! They only sell size 6-10 (lame) so ordering a smaller size wasn't even a option. Disappointed in the sizing and lack of options to size down. If you are a true size 6 (the size I ordered) then go for it.

Cute But...
" So I thought I had found the perfect oxford: the style with a feminine touch. I tried these on in the store and my usual size, 6.5, felt too big in length so I sized down. The 6 still felt roomy enough so I took a chance and bought them. Well, I should have stuck with my usual size. I put these on at home right before heading out for the night and they felt too small even though in the store I felt fine in the 6. I thought about foregoing wearing them out and returning for the larger size. I didn't listen to my gut and I regretted it. My feet hurt all night, my big toe got blistered right at the point where the shoe bends when you walk. Needless to say, I'm disappointed that I can't return these now. I will buy the next size up and just donate the pair I wore only once. :-(

Disappointed!
" Based on the reviews I had read I decided to go ahead and buy this boot. I was still a little skeptical because you never know with synthetic materials. Well, I should have followed my gut. These look cheap and like they'll only last half the season, if that, especially if I were to wear them on a daily basis. The way the sole is made they also felt unstable and wobbly. Not comfortable at all. These are going back. I'm glad that DSW is easy about returns. At least that's a positive from this disappointment.

Too Long
" This was my first pair of Keds and was looking forward to them after reading all the glowing reviews. I tried them on when they arrived and they felt great, EXCEPT, the toe box was super long. The shoe felt at least 1/2 size too long. I'll be returning them and re-ordering a smaller size. Hope it works out with the next pair.

STIFF AND NARROW
" I was looking forward to receiving these because they look so cool and versatile. Alas, they are going back today. These shoes run very narrow and to top it off are SUPER STIFF. I didn't feel like exchanging them for a bigger size only to suffer from the inflexibility of the shoe. Oh well, the search continues for a better choice.

Cute Flat
" These are cute and versatile. However, I don't recommend them for people who need a lot of support, as they don't have any. I like these to run around town and do errands in. The only thing I don't like is that they turn your little toe black after a day of wearing them. Otherwise, they are your average flat.

Beautiful Distressed Leather Boot
" THESE BOOTS ARE WONDERFUL!!!!!! I love them. I usually wear a 6 1/2 but this was the last pair in size 6. They fit perfect....no pinching or tightness. The leather is durable but feels very comfortable and pliable when wearing. The finish has a nice, gentle distressed look that adds to the beauty and appeal. It took me a while of searching for the right pair of boots and these just happened to be waiting for me during the winter clearance sale. If you happen to find these in your size, GET THEM! You will definitely love them, too!

Cute Variation on The Moto Boot
" I bought this in black which looks better than brown. It has a distressed look to it, which adds to the appeal. It is flat, though, so an insert may be needed for extra support. On the downside, don't wear these in the rain because the finish of the boot will be negatively affected. I made that mistake once but was able to recover the look with some Kiwi black shoe polish. Overall I love this boot. I do recommend it if you're looking for a shorter boot than all the knee high styles that are currently on the market.

Cute Anklestrap Flat
" This shoe is better looking in person. It fits perfectly and, yes, it is a flat, but it's comfy. Perhaps an insert will be needed if you plan to wear these for an extended period of time due to very minimal arch support. All in all, though, these are cute, comfy and versatile. I'm glad I bought these and on sale, can't be beat.

Too Cute!
" These boots are so cute! They look way better in person. The look is kind of like a beetle boot. Even though they aren't made of real leather, they wear in really well and look well made. The material is soft and pliable and no break in time is needed. The sole is also very soft and non-slippery so they will work well in the rain. I did need to add some support because of my high arches, but in general these are very comfy. I am so glad I went with these boots for an everyday boot. Can be dressed up or down, depending on your mood. Go for it!

Unique and Pretty
" As far as flats go, these are pretty comfortable. I have high arches and require arch support. These shoes have some support built in, but I added a thin orthotic and it helped make the shoes more comfy. The color, sun reptile, is very unique and versatile. They can be worn with brown or dark hues as well as lighter hues and give your outfit that extra punch. The only con for me is that my left foot tends to be slightly wider in the toe box so I need just the teensiest of stretch wear my little toe is to alleviate a bit of pinch. I know that over time the shoes will stretch a little or I can simply get a shoe stretcher to give that little bit of room. Other than that, you will not be disappointed!

Very Cute But Runs Slightly Big
" I was so happy when I received my shoes! I couldn't wait to wear them. Alas, I tried them on and they were too big; not by a huge amount, but enough so that I could not comfortably wear them. Also, the shoes are too low to add insoles. So sad because they are the cutest ever! Oh well, I'm going to return them directly to the store so I don't have to wait for an exchange.
