VenusCeliaWomen's Comfort Walking Boat Shoe

I don't ever, ever write reviews. I consider it sometimes, but ultimately never exert the effort. But these shoes have been such a life changer for me, I had to take the time. And while I'm sitting in a hotel on vacation, no less.I have a bad knee, plus a degenerative back issue that makes it painful for me to walk around a ton. I'm going to Manhattan for the first time ever in a few weeks, and was really concerned about how much walking I was going to need to do. I didn't want to wear tennis shoes every where (vanity), but needed shoes with support, so I did an overly specific Google search for "the best flats or loafers for New York City". One of the first results was a list of the best loafers for walking in NYC. These babies were at the top of the list, and showed their cost as $20, so I had to click. I thought they were interesting and a little quirky looking (which is actually a plus in my book), and I loved that there were tons of colors, so I pulled the trigger, knowing I could return them if they were terrible. No need. As soon as I got them and tried them on, I was immediately hooked. The leather is super soft and supple and comfy, and the soles felt cushiony and supportive. I've been wearing one color or another almost every day for a few weeks. My plantar fasciitis isn't a problem at all anymore, I can walk around stores, work, etc. a lot longer before my back or knee start hurting. It's been great.Then I went on vacation in New Orleans. Holy cow, I was not expecting this. My daughter and I walked all around the French quarter, and the weather was so amazing, she asked if we could just walk back to the hotel. It was a mile away, by my feet, knee, and back felt fine, so I said sure, thinking we could stop and call an Uber at any point. We walked. It was fantastic. My daughter loved getting to see so much of the area on foot, and enjoy the beautiful weather and the hopping city at night, and I loved that I didn't have to say what I normally do, "I'm sorry honey, my knee/back can't take that". I can not suggest these strongly enough. They feel great, and I have people compliment me on how cute/cool they look almost daily. Win/Win. Laissez les bon temps rouler!!

I just got these shoes in and wow! I am pleasantly surprised. These shoes are really nice and comfy! I was worried they might be kinda hard or clumpy, but was I wrong! They are stretchy and hug your feet. I have big feet, so am picky about light colored shoes that draw attention to them, but these are super cute. I wear a 10 and ordered 10 1/2 and they fit great! I am ordering more colors for sure.

I can't tell you how much I love these shoes!!! I wear and 8_8.5 and I got a 9, only because I was getting insoles. I could have gone with and 8.5, but they don't have that size. I have bought 4 pairs of these shoes that is how much I love!Update!I took these to Rome, we walked all day and night. They were great! I have actually bought 6 pairs now! I did get insoles for Rome, just because of all the walking on cobblestone. I wear them here with and without the insoles. Also - great in rain! I get so many complements, LOVE them!

I am reviewing three pairs of VenusCelia shoes. The black pair fit as I would expect a size 10M to fit me. They are snug. I typically wear a 10W. I read the reviews of them running large so I bought the red ones. They fit PERFECT five stars all the way. They are super comfortable and they look WAY more expensive than $20! I usually wear Abeo, Birkenstock, Clarks, Dansko, Rockport, Keen, etc. I easily spend over $120-$180 on shoes. My first pair of these have only been worn half a dozen times, but they are super comfy and I get lots of compliments. My sweet hubby ordered my two more pair in the same size because he was so happy I had found cheap comfortable shoes. He got me the blue print pair that fit the same as the red pair, perfectly, and the black pair which are quite tight. The leather is super flexible and I suspect they will stretch out. If they don’t, I’ll give them to someone else. For $20 it is worth the risk of not quite knowing what you will get with these. Just for additional information, I have a wide forefoot and a narrow heel. I have completely flat fleet and a collapsed metatarsal arch. Seriously, I wear good shoes and pamper my feet, and these amazingly work for me. They don’t have enough support to go hiking or anything, but a day of shopping or work? No problem. I would only give four stars because of the inconsistent sizing, but for only $20, they get a bonus star!

I am so happy with these shoes. The color is fantastic, I got the fuchsia, hot pink (cherry). As soon as I put them on, they fit like a glove. Weird to explain but for me, they fit perfectly. The material seems it will mold to my feet the more I wear them. For comparison, I wear sketchers go walk and Bob's by sketchers. I have both 8.5 and 9 depending on the fabric of the shoe. I ordered a 9 in these and they fit exactly right.I'm here to update my review, since the first pink ones, I bought 2 more, red and yellow. I was worried about them fitting as nice as the pink ones. I'm happy to say they all fit basically the same. The red was soft like the pink, the yellow ( mustard yellow) was a bit more stiff, but I wore them last night and they seem to be softening up. I'll also point out that the rubber on the bottom was a different color, and a little more firm, but not really a big deal. They also all had different shoe boxes. I bought all from this exact seller so just an observation. I will probably buy more colors, they are very comfortable and fun to have different colors at the office.

I love these shoes, very comfortable and soft. Didn't expect to like them so much. I just wish there was an option where the soling was white as well, is there? Nice shoe though...update! I wore the shoe once and some of the threading has already begun to loosen, it's still a good shoe, really comfortable however I'm not sure if it'll hold up for a long time.Update 20/4/18Shoe is still going strong despite the threading mishap. I took a lighter n burn the end so it wouldn't loosen ( it worked). Got many compliments, most ppl think they are Clark's or loafers lol

Soft leather, Nice and pliable for my wide feet. Can be worn nicely with jeans . No support, could be used as a nice slipper as well.

Soft and comfortable

Great shoes, super stand comfortable

Very good product
