LifeStrideWomen's Giovanna 2

For work I wanted to elevate myself a bit (elevate, ha, get it?). I wear a "normal" 7.5 most of the time, sometimes a 7. I ordered a 7.5 and it fits true to size.These shoes are perfect for "dress for the job you want" types. I only just tried them, but they seem comfortable. I was worried that the zipper part in the back would rub against my heel and cause irritation but it doesn't seem that that's going to be an issue. Will update after I've spent a day in them.**EDIT** I've worn these twice this week and can tell you that they are a comfortable shoe that you should have no problem lasting the day in. I worked and ran errands with a toddler in tow both days with no soreness. My only tiny complaint would be that the elastic that comes across the top of my foot was a tad tight. After a day in them, the tightness was certainly noticeable, but not really enough to say painful or like I needed to take them off. I'm thinking the elastic should relax a bit once I've had them a while.*Edit* it's worth coming back to this review to say that I've had these shoes for quite a while and they hold up well. I will be buying other colors and a spare pair of black for when these give out, which I don't think will be anytime soon. Really just the perfect work shoe. I can walk all day in these comfortably.

This shoe 8W was perfect and elegant enough for my planned event. It fitted and was very comfortable. I'm a big girl and "I" couldn't walk in them. I felt like I was killing the shoes. I am not accustomed to wearing heels. In fact I'm a sneaker person. So, trying to walk in them was a challenge. I really wish I could. I opted for a shoe with a block heel. The shoe gets 5⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐s.

Perfect! Comfortable and high quality!

I love that I can always count on Life Stride shoes to deliver the promise of great Fit & comfort! It is my third or fourth pair & I am always a perfect size 8 in this brand of shoes. I can confidently order them via Amazon because they never fail to fit perfectly! I like this style because it can be used for both formal & informal, more business like occasions. I am very happy with my purchase!

The first pair i ordered were to small so would suggest ordering a half size larger than normal and they are very hard to get on. Once they are on they are very comfortable for heels and would be great for work, not to high and not to low. Amazon was great in getting me the larger size extremely fast. I thank them for that as I had to wear them for a special occasion right away and they came thru.

I wasn't sure these shoes would be comfortable but I wore them to a conference and was delighted with them. Now I find myself wearing them all the time. Good buy for the money.

These shoes were a crap shoot. Not a girlie girl, but do like to look nice at an affair in this case a wedding. Have really problematic feet a lot of heels leave my feet screaming! I'm 57 and I believe I haven't danced this much since my wedding 20 years ago. The shoes didn't look old ladyish, but very stylish. Sent several pairs back due to comfort and on style. I figured I would not be able to walk next day, but no issues at all no pain what so ever. Have deep sixed many heels in the last few because they are so painful. These are keepers. Just Wished I could find in non suede too.

I found the same shoe by another seller at an extremely high price, on the page it offered other sellers, so I checked them out and found that it was available as a returned item either with nothing wrong or worst case scenario, the sole of the shoe MAY have a SLIGHT scratch. The price was $10.00 (and change) so I wasn't worried about a slight scratch on the BOTTOM of a shoe. I had nothing to lose and could always send them back or give them away if I wasn't happy. I received them and there is ABSOLUTELYN O T H I N G wrong with the shoe. It arrived in it's original box, the box had a dent, from shipping, but the shoes were in brand spanking new condition. They fit perfectly and look great. I HIGHLY recommend the brand and style and I've learned to always check out the other listed "sellers" option. I don't recall EVER purchasing a pair of 'heels' for a mere $10.00 - this was a treat!

Buying shoes without trying them on is always going to be risky. But these fit quite well. High instep, which is good for me. You will need a shoe horn to get them on. They wont last long because the back of the heel will get trashed getting them on and off again if your feel tend to swell. But once on, they are comfortable. I dont notice the zipper at all. Steady heel and comfortable toe box, so I'm happy with this purchase at this price for a 'fast fashion' item.

I love the look of these shoes. The heel height is perfect and the cross over the foot is quite stunning. I did find that strap became a little snug and slightly uncomfortable though after wearing the shoes for about 3 hours much of which time was spent standing. They are a challenge to put on, even with the back zippered access, but once on, the extra width in the shoe made them relatively comfortable for my toes and wider foot.

It could have been my feet. These shoes looked perfect. I usually don't wear heels, so chose shoes with a low heel for my daughter's wedding. They had to look elegant and stay on my feet for several hours. The day they arrived, I put them on in happy anticipation. What??? They hurt, hurt, hurt. The arch was somewhere under the ball of my foot and pains shot up my legs from the ankles. It could have just been me. But don't say I didn't warn you.

Je fait vraiment 6.5 ni plus petit ni plus grand retourner pour un 6.0 je ne pourrais mettre mon pied de la façon que la chaussure est fait en hauteur il aurait été mieux que la fermeture soit de côté pour ceux qui prenne la grandeur W ... Belle chaussure oui confortable ? Trop grande pied flotte et malheureusement le 6.0 serait parfait mais je ne pourrait le mettre que faire ...

Bought 9W. The packaging of these shoes is incredible. I haven't worn them to our event yet, so if I remember I will update my review afterwards. Just walking around our home, these shoes are incredibly comfortable. Heel is perfect height and the ball of my foot is cushioned well. The box is comes in has a lovely note on their environmental friendly methods as well, was a nice touch. I also plan on keeping the box for Christmas because it is a great box... the things adults get excited over...
