These shoes look like orthopedic shoes for old people.... not my 11yr old. I'm sending them back.
It made me give a star but it doesn't deserve any stars. Pick another brand

OK, so I am pretty much convinced that the portion of my DNA that fashioned my feet was from a Neanderthal or a relative.  I have large, wide feet  that started to become arthritic before I hit 50 because of misaligned toes and the lack of wisdom to buy ugly orthopaedic shoes in my youth so that I could be fashionable instead.  At 66 I am paying big time for that mistake even after a total of 5 surgeries.  I am constantly searching for shoes that fit and are comfortable.  These are GREAT!  I use them as slippers around the house and for my forays into the yard for light duty work or play.  They are soft and very adjustable on top and have a lightweight yet thick sole with good arch support.  The downside - my better half says they look like mary janes (some sort of women's shoes, I gather) but I don't care.  No more fashion statements for me - just comfort. Buy these if you have similar issues.  You can return them they don't work for you.

I bought these for my daughter because white dress shoes for girls in genuine leather are disgracefully difficult to come by. Unfortunately, they have turned out to be excessively conservative in appearance. You'll probably like them if you're over the age of 90, or if you belong to a strict religious order or cult. My daughter and I - and my husband, who normally doesn't notice such things - all found them terribly frumpy and unpretty.

In addition to the aforementioned lack of style (which I believe is caused by the wideness of the toe box), they run quite large. We could only make them work by stuffing them full of removable insoles from other shoes.

They are shoes meant for older women....not a young shoe at all. And fit wrong in all the wrong places.

I like the way this brand fits especially for older people.  There is more room in the toe area.  The only thing  I noticed  is that they did not have the reinforced grommets in the shoe laces so hope they hold up.

These were much dowdier in person than I expected, and I'm all about a sensible shoe. So for me to think they looked like old lady shoes mean they're practically orthopedic sneakers.

I found this shoe to be easy to slip on and quite comfortable, much more so than the dozen or so other slip-ons I tried. Sadly my wife said it made me look like a geriatric person so I had to return it. Not that there is anything wrong with being geriatric, but I am not nearly old enough that I should be aiming for that style.

I've spent thousands looking for work shoes that didn't cripple me.  I can walk miles and stand all day.  And they're cute.
They don't look like old lady orthopedics.  I only wish the soles didn't wear down as quickly.  I would buy these shoes for the rest of my life.

I purchased these shoes to wear with a suit for a wedding.  I was shocked when they arrived, as these shoes are the crazy looking, super-elongated style of shoe that was popular in Italy a while ago.  Fortunately, some of the 20 something wedding party were also wearing these style of shoes, so I didn't look out of place.

BUT, the photo in the ad is definitely deceptive.  These shoes look like clown shoes, in my opinion.  They are not a "normal" Rockport style dress shoe.

The shoes are comfortable but they were a little wide and truly they have kind of an old-lady look.  I returned them for that reason.  I am not so young anymore but I do not want to look older than my years.

I received the shoes in a few days after I ordered them from Amazon. I am wearing them as a casual shoe with my slacks. I am 80 years old and have a long narrow foot 9 1/2 narrow and these shoes fit me pretty well. They look dressy with dressy clothes and yet casual with my casual slacks and skirts.

The steel toe obviously does not give like the old leather toe on these shoes used to do.  This is somewhat difficult to wear for an elderly person with diabetes.

I like the way these shoes look, but I thought that because they were Mephisto shoes they would provide a lot of support for my feet.  They don't.  You can insert orthotics, but these shoes are like slippers, soft but not supportive.

I bought these shoes for my grandmother, after she heard on the grapevine that there are great orthopedic shoes online.

My grandmother was in awe of the sheer comfort of the shoes. She says these are the most comfortable shoes that she has ever worn. She has not wanted to wear anything else since she purchased them. The print within the black suede allows the clog to have a softer look.

Since then my grandmother has sent me to purchase another pair of Alegria shoes,hopefully they will be on par with this shoe!

Overall a great product.

I bought these for my 93 year old mom because she needs shoes with Velcro and that will fit her orthotic inserts. The are not as bulky as regular athletic shoes. She loves them and gets lots of compliments on them at the assisted living facility.
