Cannot say enough about this shoes! I'm definitely not the type of person that uses heels but some occasions just ask for them. Usually I can just use heels for 1h and then I have to find a place to sit, since they all start squeezing my pinkies creating blisters (thanks to my hobbit feet). I usually wear a 8.5W but decided to order a WW to be on the safe side. The WW is true to width and a W would probably fit as well, but I absolutely have no regrets in ordering some extra width. It's summer now and pretty warm here in south Texas and those shoes SAVED my night. I was able to stay the whole party with them on (read 6+ hours), even though my feet got swollen due to the warm weather... So happy I ordered WW! And they are also pretty stylish... I'm on my late 20s and was so happy to find a WW shoe that is both classy and don't look like grandma shoes! Highly recommended!

These shoes saved my night. I hate wearing heels (I'm tall enough, thanks) and especially hate wearing uncomfortable ones just because they look nice. But as I was attending a very expensive dinner event in Beverly Hills, I knew I couldn't wear anything less than pretty to match my cocktail dress. I took a chance with these and now they will always be my go-to pair for any classy or upscale event. They actually do look really pretty. I think it's the placement of the super comfortable, flexible straps that seem to make that work. They have very flexible soles and the toe box has plenty of room without being bulky. The fabric material is easy to wipe clean, too. I can't imagine how much my feet might have hurt with any other heels I tried, and am so glad I took advantage of Zappos' great policy (in case I didn't like them) and decided it couldn't hurt to try them out. Oh, we even went to 2 clubs in Hollywood afterwards. My friend who wore 4 inch stilettos had to take hers off at the first club since her feet were hurting, but I kept these on all night!

Bunion sufferers will love this shoe. 71/2 WW. Very roomy toe box and does not cut into scar on top of big toe joint from surgeries. I haven't been able to wear heels comfortably but these are not painful to wear. They are champagne,lite rose beige color with a slight pearlized sheen,not silver at all. A good basic neutral color. I needed a light colored dress shoe other than black. I plan to wear them for my daughter's wedding.

I purchased these shoes for a wedding and they were comfortable enough for me to dance all night in. I never felt like I had to take them off because my feet hurt (and I have bunions on both feet and knee issues). I'm so happy to have found a dress shoe that is both comfortable and attractive. If they came in other colors, I would buy them all!

This is the best shoe I have ever owned. I have a wide foot and normally I have to remove any shoe I buy within a couple of hours, not with these. I wore them to an event and and they where like wearing a good pair of gloves on my feet! Love these shoes!

First, there is no silver color to these at all. They are a bone china with a light pearl glaze that look more gold, but not silver. Second, the toe is so rounded that it resembles a hoof...I have a wide foot with a square toe bed and these do fit...but they look odd. My feet might be hoofed shaped but I'd rather not advertise that to the general public.

OMG... Oh my goodness! From the moment I tried them on, I was dancing on air! I have 10-1/2 double wide, and then some, feet and they still felt incredible! I went from 3:30 pm to 3:30 am on my daughter's wedding day and I didn't have to take them off at all. I didn't have to go the dancing barefoot route and subject guests to that whole look. Love them and will throw a party just so I can wear them again! I bought 4 other pairs before I found these and they all look dowdy, or they hurt. Hallelujah! You've found your pretty, yet comfy dress shoes!

This is my very first review that I have ever written. I felt that I needed to write this review for all my kindred spirits who have so much difficulty finding comfortable shoes due to foot problems. I even have problems finding comfortable slippers because I have no fat pads on the bottom of my feet and I really need to find shoes or slippers that cushion my feet. Walking Cradles Caliente are the most comfortable shoes you could own. You can wear them for hours and hours without having aching feet. I also have callouses to contend with, and they still provided me with comfort. I do not have bunions or hammer toe, so I can't speak to that. I purchased my regular size 7 medium, and they fit perfectly. Not only that, they really look cute and fashionable on me, no old lady look. Thank you Walking Cradles!! I hope this review helps another customer make a decision to buy these very, very, very comfortable shoes which help to dress up any outfit you wear.

These are so beautiful! The 7.5 m I could barely get my foot in. The 7.5 wide fits great, except, the straps around the ankle are pretty loose. I have flat fee which kind of add to the width, but top of my foot and ankles are regular width. It makes it hard to find shoes sometimes. (That's why I have $2k worth of Zappos shoes sitting in front of me. I may try another pair of the 7.5 w and see if the strap is tighter. Hoping so!

Love the design of this shoe but unfortunately the ankle area is too big so have to send it back. I wear a 10 WW and the front of the shoe is just slightly too narrow -- but I think it would still work for me if the rest of the shoe fit -- but my ankle is swimming in the straps, which can't be adjusted tighter. Also, the vamp is too roomy and high over my foot -- I can easily slide 3 fingers into the top front of the shoe (over the toes) up to my fingers' first joint -- lots of room in there! Since the reviews are so good though, this must be fitting a lot of people very well. Just take note, if your foot is wide at the toe but otherwise not wide, and not "high" or thick in the vamp area, this may not work for you. Love the style though and would like to find some like it that work for me.

9N. I took a chance that a 9 would be ok even though I wear a 9.5. But it was a little short. It was a true narrow. The shoe was very comfortable and I wanted it to work for me. Sad to return

This shoe saved my feet for a recent wedding. I have a lot of arthritic pain in feet as well as bunions. 8W is my usual size and that's what I ordered. First pair of comfy dress shoes in ages!

These actually fit my 4E wide feet. I wear 10.5 4E men's athletic shoes most of the time because women's shoes are so hard to find in my width. I have been trying to find women's dress shoes wide enough for me. I have tried 11WW in different brands but they have always been too tight on my toes and that's the biggest width most brands make. These shoes are comfortable on my toes and bunion. Unfortunately my foot doesn't touch on the arch but I would rather deal with that then having my foot smashed into a small shoe. The straps are a little lose but my foot stays in the shoe. I'm keeping these and going to try more from this brand to see if any of their other styles fit my toes as well.

I just received my new shoes and They Fit!! It's a miracle as I have long, narrow feet with a high arch and an even narrower heel. The elastic gussets insure that the shoe fit properly. I have Rheumatoid Arthritis and it is very hard for me fasten tiny buckles so I'm thankful these shoes don't have any buckles! The padded foot bed is very comfortable and I really like that the sole is leather. These shoes will be perfect for dressing up at a convention I'm going to in Las Vegas in May.

Anyone with a wide foot knows how tricky it is to find a good fit. The front of this shoe is wide enough to allow the widest part of my foot to fit inside, the toe box is high enough to accommodate my toes without squishing them, and the elastic on the back actually stays up when I walk. The rounded toe is not as cute and stylish as a pointy-toed shoe, but it is a whole lot more comfortable. And that's a a trade-off I can live with.

These shoes are the perfect answer for "hard to fit" feet. The toe box is roomy. The elastic straps are perfect as they hold the shoe on snugly without binding, slippage, or walking out of the shoe. These are very sexy shoes that can be worn by women who ordinarily "can't find" shoes that work. These shoes make your feet look petite which I greatly appreciate, as I wear a size 13. I have also ordered these shoes in silver. I can't say enough positive things about these great shoes. Also, these shoes feel expensive, and I should know because I have worn shoes that cost five times as much. These are better. Thank you Zappos for your patience with me.

I have very wide feet after years of ballet dancing, teaching, and having children. My feet have endured a lot. I have to choose my shoes quite carefully so that I am able to really enjoy wearing them. This beautiful pair of shoes fits all of my criteria. They fit perfectly, are very stylish, and well made. I am so happy with and highly recommend them! I wish they came in other colors! A note - I wear an 8 medium in sneakers. I purchased these shoes in a 7 EE which is my true size.

I have some foot issues and was looking for a comfortable heel to wear to a wedding. These are very good looking for comfort oriented heels and don't look too matronly, in my opinion. I was a little worried that the straps would give me blisters as they are very tight and there is no way to adjust them, but I was able to wear them all night with no issues. I would highly recommend these shoes.

Shoes fit perfectly. I have bad feet and they are very comfortable. They are classic; I plan on wearing with a gown for a wedding, but can easily wear with a short dress or slacks as well. I am very happy with my purchase. They run true to size.

Was concerned the rounded toe box would look a little matronly, but it is not severe and does not make my foot look bigger, even with a bunion on the right foot. Slight elastic stretch on the back straps makes this not too difficult to get on (compared to some stiffer straps or buckles). Cross straps up the sex appeal. This shoe will not require breaking in at all. Super comfy. Will be great looking with a cocktail dress but could easily pull off a more somber event without being out of place. These are a keeper.

Everything about this shoe is beautiful, it's very wide in the round toe box, which is what I need. However, there is an awkward cup-like ridge coming up from around the heel that is uncomfortable to stand on, and I don't think that would change with wear. If the surface was flat, it would be fine. My heels are not overly wide, if you have narrow heels it won't be a problem for you.

Put these on to try them out. Got sidetracked and two hours later remembered they were still on my feet. Have not had shoes this comfortable in years. Usually when you get shoes wide which they look like orthopedic shoes. These are awesome.

These shoes are both elegant and comfortable. Very dressy in my opinion, so they won't be worn much, but when I need shoes like these for a night out or a special event, they are truly appreciated. I wear a 9.5 medium and they fit perfectly and are wide enough to accommodate a bunion on one foot. That is saying a great deal for me. Straps are stretchy and therefore not too tight. Great shoe!

Flattering, comfortable heels - these shoes saw me through a busy university commencement day when I was on my feet much of the day as a dressed-up alumna serving a ceremonial role. I'm petite, so flats would have looked wrong with my outfit, which included a fancy hat. My foot is medium-width but the 6B was snug; I re-ordered in a 6-wide, which is a D-width, and worried that it would be too wide, especially on my heel which is AA. But the D surprisingly fit fine, allowing space for the foot to expand as the day progressed, and a heel strap that kept the shoe securely on my foot. Nicely constructed shoe with leather soles, which is unusual these days, and an absorbent lining.
