Here is a tip. These are really comfortable shoes. You need to heat the toe and sides with a hair dryer and then insert your foot. The shoes mold to your feet and I wore them the first time all day! A tip from an old shoe salesman told me.

I had high hopes for these flats. I've owned Nine West pointy-toe flats before, so I was disappointed by three specifics about these shoes: (1) The hard plastic sole feels cheap. (2) The top edge of the shoe falls too low over my pinkie toe knuckle, causing the edge of the shoe to dig into my knuckle painfully. an outer edge 1/4" higher would make a big difference in comfort for me. It would also lessen the toe cleavage, of which I'm not a fan. (3) The leather feels thinner than I expected. It will show creases and wrinkles quicker than my old pair did.

THESE SHOES ARE CRAP!! Today is the second day wearing them and they are already cracking. Both shoes have cracks on either side. They are uncomfortable and cheap! I am completely disappointed! I want my money back.

These shoes aren't comfortable for all day wear. I normally like to wear those little socks that normally provide a lot of support but these shoes are very tight. If I were to order them again, I'd get half a size bigger.

Good value and quite comfortable, although I probably would not walk miles in them. Wore them with a long navy satin skirt and they were exactly the punch of color I wanted. They will go well with jeans, too.

Really cute, but my heels and toes hate me. I wear a 10 but I ended up needing to add heel pads because after 10 minutes my heels were rubbed off. With the heel pads (and maybe without, I can't remember) they are absolutely too tight in the toes, so my advice is too get the pads right off the bat and go a half size up.

I have worn Nine West high heels for years and always wear a 9M, so I thought I would wear the same in the flats. However the 9M flat was so long and wide that a return was necessary. The 8 -1/2 length was perfect but the shoe fit like a wide shoe. So my bigger left foot which is a bit wider fits excellently. There is a tiny bit of gap in the instep area that nobody but me will probably notice when my foot is flat on the ground. But it is somewhat noticeable as my foot moves. This shoe has no arch support which never makes any difference to me because I never need any. The leather is soft and comfortable. All in all this was a good buy and I love the color red.

I don't like flats. I'm a heels girl. But I'm also over 40 and am getting to the point where I can't wear heels all the time, so I went on the hunt for a pair of flats that cute and comfortable. I find flats to be...well...too flat. Heels are more comfortable to me - until they're not. So I didn't want anything too flat, but I also didn't want a giant platform or anything that looked like a nurse's shoe. Most of the really cute flats were horribly uncomfortable - perfectly flat, no support and really stiff - no flexibility. This was - by far - the best I found. Has a bit of padding under the foot. Soft flexible leather, but doesn't look like a slipper. The pointy toe gives it a stylish edge. I did find that I needed a half size larger than my other shoes.

Super pleased with this purchase! I feel that I'm a true size 8 and the size 8 fit perfectly on my imperfect feet. The shoe is comfy and hugs my foot comfortably and there is no gapping around my foot as is the case with many flats. I'm going to get another pair or more in other colors. This shoe is a great staple to any wardrobe. For me, it's perfect for business casual Fridays.

I have these flats in so many colors, all colors are consistent in quality. Sometimes for some odd reason different colors fit differently but not these! Very easy to wear with jeans or dress pants- wear to work, night out or even brunch. Comfortable considering they are flats, the heel has some good distance between your foot and the bare ground, in other words you don't feel like your foot is hitting the pavement.

I've had at least half a dozen pairs of these in various colors and they don't disappoint as long as you pay attention to your upper choice. The real leather ones break in much faster and last longer than synthetic. I've had a couple of pairs of glitter ones that were too stiff, and a fabric pair where the seams came out too quickly, but overall these are my go-to for comfortable, stylish flats.

Flats are far from my favorite and I tend to find cute flats that make my feet hurt yet they are so doggone fashionable the slight wear pain is feasible. I'm hoping they last throughout my hat luncheon.

Love Nine West. I find all of their shoes to have a predictable fit and these are no different, they fit perfectly and I'm a size 12. Looks good, feels good. Good for work.

I was surprised how comfortable these are , especially for a pointed toe style! I wear a size 11m, generally I find pointed toe styles too short in length making them impossible to wear for long periods of time. I have finally found a brand that makes true to size pointed toe shoes! These shoes are easy to dress up or down. I will be buying every color!

Though there is no arch support in these shoes, they flex really well, and are comfortable to walk in a whole day, doing everything from housework and laundry to shopping. I bought about 6 pairs now and am glad that they had so many colors to choose from. I have two sitting in my favorites that I will pick up soon. I read the other reviews and have to say that there is no excessive toe cleavage at all -- they fit well, and no cutting in at the toe area at all. Actually THESE SHOES FIT SO WELL THAT I HAVE TO SAY THEY ARE THE BEST PAIR OF FLATS I HAVE FOUND SO FAR AND I HAVE AT LEAST A DOZEN PAIR FROM DIFFERENT DESIGNERS -- THAT SAYS A LOT AS THESE SHOES I CAN WALK IN ALL DAY WITHOUT ANY ISSUES. I do agree that if you want arch support you will need to add something to the shoe, but I have high arches and I can still walk in these all day without an issue. No rubbing, no soreness and I wear a size 10 M -- it's the best pair I've ever purchased and I liked them so well I order another 5 pair immediately after wearing the black suede and the natural. Not sure why others had issues, but these work well for me and I absolutely LOVE the fit and the style. The Blue Black pair are gorgeous and so are the Multi Black -- nice for dressing up and going out even.

I'm so glad I listened to the reviews by buying a half size bigger. It definitely makes a difference in how it fits. My toes have more room and aren't squished and the back of the shoe doesn't rub my heel. I definitely needed the extra space. I have this style and brand in 1 inch heels and I bought my size which is tight on my feet and uncomfortable to wear all day. I wish I had bought a half size bigger in those. But I'm glad I got these and they're cute too! I bought this in pink and turquoise. They didn't have my size in the turquoise so I had no choice to go a half size up anyway. Can't wait to wear them to work!

Love the look and style of these shoes but I have to agree with the other reviews that they are poorly made and feel cheap. They still look good though so I kept them but don't think they will last more than one season :/

I love these flats! They are super cute and go with everything. The pointy toe is sophisticated and really helps elongate my legs since I'm petite. They do not offer any cushion or support so you would have to purchase additional inserts for support.

fit well, cute pattern. But if you are looking for a casual shoe, these aren't. Appearance of gray cheetah pattern is quite shiny and fancy.

I finally found a pair of nude flats! I've been looking for a while and ran into a lot of fit issues with different brands. I wear a size 10 but I found a lot of them felt too tight either in the toe or heel area. These ones feel just right and the pointed toe is not so extreme. Love them!!

The shoe looks good and is as comfortable as you would expect a new show to be. I have worn them for a few hours at a time to break them in and so far so good. I have gotten many compliments in the style. I would recommend purchasing them.

Tight fit. Narrow shoes but I’ll try stretching them before wearing all day.
