By traveler from San Francisco, CA on 08/22/2009 Pros: Breathes Well, Comfortable, Durable, Versatile Best Uses: Casual Wear, Travel, Work Describe Yourself: Style Driven Sizing: Feels true to size Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I love aquatalia. Both the brand and these shoes runs narrow, which is great for me, but if you are a normal width you may want to go up a size. These shoes are not poorly made (I don't know what the other reviewers were talking about)as they appear to live up to standard high quality aquatalia construction, but are a fairly conservative style. I was looking for a good pair of shoes to walk to work in, and take on several trips to Europe this year, and I think I've found them. They are patent leather and shiny, which saves them (in my opinion) from being horribly conservative. These are perfect for city wear, when you just don't need or want to wear those butt-ugly rain boots or heavier shoes.
nice looking but didn't stay on feet By TJ from NJ on 08/19/2009 Pros: Breathable, Cute, Stylish Cons: Flops off of the foot Describe Yourself: Stylish Sizing: Feels true to size Width: Feels true to width Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: The shoe seemed to fit well when I first tried it on at home. However, when I wore them to work, my foot slipped around in them and slid forward causing the toe strap to be tight and uncomforable. I ended up buying sandal inserts at lunch and some padding just to make a better fit. For the [$] paid, I was disappointed, but having worn the shoes out of the house I had no choice but to try and make it work.
By Lynne from Boston, MA on 08/17/2009 Cons: Irregular Fit, Too Stiff Best Uses: Casual Wear, Travel, Work Describe Yourself: Comfort Driven Sizing: Feels true to size Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: These shoes are cute and well made and look nice with pants or a skirt, but the toe box is narrow in my opinion and the patent leather is a bit stiff so it takes a while to stretch them so that they conform to your foot. In addition, they gap along the side when I walk. Also, I selected the red ones, but they are an odd shade...perhaps with a bit too much orange in them for my taste.
Fabulous comfortable shoes!! By told from Portsmouth, Va. on 08/15/2009 Pros: Breathable, Comfortable, Cute, Durable, Stylish Best Uses: Barbecues, Everyday, Travel, Walking Describe Yourself: Stylish Sizing: Feels true to size Width: Feels true to width Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: This shoe is so comfortable that I wish it came in many colors. It has great support and is stylish too.
you can always send them back... By danielle renee from westerly, rhode island on 08/10/2009 Describe Yourself: Comfort-oriented, Conservative, Stylish Sizing: Feels half size too small Width: Feels true to width Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: i feel like i read all of the customer reviews and felt like these boots would be worth the money. i don't really have a problem spending a lot on shoes, but only if i know they're going to last. i like to buy styles that stay 'in' for years and because these boots looked plain and still pretty cute i thought they'd fit the bill.
however, when i discovered that the 'adjustable strap' was made of VELCRO i immediately sent them back. when spending a couple hundred on a pair of footwear, nowhere in sight should i see a swatch of velcro! how tacky :P
a buckle or something else functional and attractive would have been better.
i also don't like the zipper being visible...another thing that should be hidden behind a flap of fabric because of price...and also because of warmth and weather resistance.
i am not going to recommend this 'to a friend' but if you don't care about the zipper showing or the fact that there's a cheap piece of velcro on them, then give them a shot, they are cute, and you can always send them back.
By cwright from Seattle, WA on 08/06/2009 Pros: Breathes Well, Comfortable, Cute, Durable, Easy To Clean, Warm Best Uses: Casual Wear, Cold Weather, Going Out Describe Yourself: Comfort-oriented, Stylish Sizing: Feels true to size Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: These boots are extremely well-made and beautiful, even better than the picture. However, beware that they run very narrow. I have narrowish feet, not so narrow that I need to buy narrow shoes, but generally I don't have any problems with shoes that other reviewers claim are for narrow feet. These, however, truly are narrow. They fit me perfectly with no socks on. With socks, they are too narrow. The length is perfect though so I'm not sure that going a 1/2 size up would be a good solution. I like them so much I'm keeping them anyway and will have to wear them with tights with a skirt/dress, or very thin trouser or pant socks. They are quite warm even without socks on though as the fit around the ankle is comfortably snug and the only reason I don't just wear them that way is because the leather foot bed sticks to my feet.
By LL from Ohio on 08/04/2009 Sizing: Feels half size too big Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: It is a pair of sandal for walking.
By Libby from Alexandria, VA on 08/04/2009 Pros: Comfortable, Stylish, Well made Best Uses: Everyday, Going Out, Travel Sizing: Feels true to size Width: Feels true to width Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: These sandals are elegant yet simple in their design. The materials are very fine, with the leather across the toes and around the heel as soft as glove leather and the fabric forming the V along the top of the foot gentle on the skin. As always, these run toward the narrow side, especially in the forefoot here. Loved the special touches in the design, e.g. the squared off toe and heel echoed in the square metal ornament. The inner soles are nicely padded.

These shoes are also very attractive. So any of my friends liked them that I just purchased another pair as a birthday gift.
