Customer Reviews PIKOLINOS Calabria 917-7123

I ordered a size up, and it fit perfectly in front. It rubs a bit at the heel. The leather is soft and the shoes are generally comfortable. I got the blue and am not thrilled about the white laces with blue toggles (visible in the photo of the shoes in the brown color), I think a plain lace would look better but I guess I'll have to cut the original laces off since the toggle won't fit through the lace holes. Generally these are a cute and comfortable shoe.

I love the look of this shoe! It's exactly what I was looking for. Comfortable, stylish oxford, but not too dressy for everyday. The footbed is nice and soft and squishy. My main complaint is with the heel of the shoe - the stitching there rubs my heel and hurts even with socks a little. I've only worn them once, so I'm hoping this problem will go away after they break in more. The leather seems super soft, so maybe they'll stretch out a little and get more comfortable. If they do, they will be my favorite shoe!

The shoe ran small which I didn't expect from Pikolinos. I wear a 42 so didn't have the option of going up a size. It's cute, if it fit, I think it would have been a fun shoe. Rats.

I bought these shoes over a year ago and still wear them all the time. They're super comfortable, the leather is beautiful and soft, and they still look new after nearly constant use. My only complaint is the rubber sole sticks out a bit in front of the shoe and I've tripped over it a couple of times. Could just be a small abnormality, and is something I could easily correct if it became e problem.

Love the style, but this does indeed run small. Although I wear a 9.5, I thought I would be safe ordering the 40 (which runs to a 10), but it feels way too tight. Exhanging today. As far as comfort, the insole has a nice amount of cushioning. Hoping the new size will fit!

I REALLY wanted to love these shoes but I have neuropathy in my left toes after delivering my first child and while these have a nice cushiony bottom, the weight bearing pressure hit in the wrong places for me. But awesome shoes!

I love these shoes so much but the 38 was a tad too big. I usually wear a 7½ or 8. I bought these shoes to replace my Minnetonka Mocs that are finally ready to be retired. I wanted to exchange for the 37 but sadly they are sold out most everywhere.

These shoes feel like putting butter on your feet. The leather is so so SO soft and supple. My feet are size 9.5 and I bought the 9.5-10 fit and it fits perfectly. My toes don't smush up and form against the leather like other customers have seen happen. It only did that when I tried on the smaller size one down. The heel did feel like it was a bit tight at first when I wore the shoes, but I loosened my laces a little bit and after wearing the shoes a little bit, it doesn't happen anymore at all. It's like the shoe hugs the back of the heel and you don't NEED to tie your laces as snugly as you normally do. I can't recommend these shoes enough. I've already gotten numerous compliments on them and I want to maybe even buy a backup pair so when these wear out, I'm not SOL if/when they discontinue them!

I love these shoes! I have been searching everywhere for European-style low profile shoes and was excited to find these. The leather is buttery soft so the shoes are really comfortable. They look great with skinny jeans. The quality is typical top notch Pikolinos. One other reviewer points out that you can see the silhouette of the tops of your feet because of the softness of the leather. I see her point, but honestly I am not bothered by it. They do seem to run a bit large. I am a 6½, and the 36 fit me better than the 37.

These shoes are super comfortable and cute! I generally have a hard time finding comfortable shoes since my feet are a smidge wider than average, but these felt awesome as soon as I put them on thanks to the soft leather. My shoe size is sort of in between a 38 and 39, so I tried both sizes. 39 was the winner.

Beautiful, soft leather shoe. I usually size-up 1/2 size in this brand, which helps with this shoe, especially, as it has a narrow toe-box.

This shoe is so cute and very comfortable. I was a little leery, but I'm so glad I got this shoe. It is going to look super cute with skinny jeans. I have never bought this brand before, but it looks and feels to be of excellent quality. I'm definitely glad I bought it.

I so wanted to love these shoes, but the sizing was all wrong for my foot. Wanted to take them on a trip where I would be doing a lot of walking. There wasn't any arch support which I would have needed

These are great looking shoes that fit like a soft glove. For any extended wear walking, I put my inserts in for added support. They look great. However, they are not very hearty shoes and show wear quickly. First time out, my toe was scuffed (where, I do not know) and the leather shredded. I will wear them inside, they are not for city walking.

Really cute shoes and they are very stylish. No complaint except that they are narrower than I expected. Because they are leather they seem to be stretching out, though.

I liked the look of these so much that I bought them in two colors, the caramel and red. They are beautiful to look at and comfortable and lightweight to wear. My problem, however, is how poorly they wear. I live in the city, and after one wearing on the street, the leather was badly scraped and splintered on the toe. They are cute, but not practical, unlike most other Pikolinos that I have purchased.

So sad! I love Pikolinos - that is, I have a pair of their sandals that fit perfectly, super comfortable and cute, and I ogle their other many styles... So I was surprised that these did not fit at all like that pair-- the leather is super soft, as many reviewers have said, but on me, they pinched at the heel. I tried two sizes, the 39 was a little better than the 38 on the pinching, but neither was exactly right. Also the softness meant I could see my big toe against the leather, which i thought might wear in funny, since my feet are not exactly the shape of the shoe. Love the concept of a low-profile all purpose oxford... but sadly, these were not the ones.

The leather of this shoe was SO soft. It really was like wearing slippers, but with support. But I'm reluctantly sending them back due to the height of the toe area. I'm afraid that my toe nail would wear through the top of the shoe, and I keep my toenails short!

These look like they will be very comfortable, but I found the heel to have seams that dug in to my heel as a wore them (even with socks). Quite a bummer given the price!

Similar to another reviewer, this shoe seemed to not have enough space in the toe height-wise. Seems weird but while the shoe fit in length and width, my toe was really pushing up against the top (not front) of the shoe so that I could see the outline of my toe nail when I looked down at the shoe. I've never had that happen before. It doesn't look or feel good so I unfortunately had to return the shoe. The pros: the leather was super soft and the sole cushy, and other than the toe-thing these are really cute shoes. Wish I could've kept them.
