The wide cut vamp of the Naturalizer Banks shoe works perfectly for me in that it completely bypasses my bunion. What a wonderful surprise! Not only is the shoe extremely pretty and stylish with a comfortable low block heel, it doesn't impact my bunion at all! I am delighted.

Naturalizer shoes are generally pretty comfortable but I found these to be the exception. The shoes have no arch support and minimal cushion, not to mention that the tip is MUCH pointer than it looks in the photos making the shoes awkward to walk in. The first time I wore them, the tip scraped on the sidewalk and scuffed the shoe since they're strange to walk in. I wish I'd sent them back instead of wearing them. it was a total waste of money.

These shoes are AWESOME!!! The Hot Sauce color is absolutely beautiful and the style is on point in every way!!! As a woman who wears a 12W (sometimes 12M depending on the designer), it’s hard to find a flattering and fun show that looks stylish (NOT matronly at all) and is well made. I can see wearing these shoes with a dressy or casual look. A FANTASTIC FIND!!!!!

I can't believe this! These gorgeous shoes don't fit! I walk out of them when I try to walk. Well, most of the time Naturalizer's are great.

I thought these shoes were going to be great when I got them; they're comfortable and the fit was perfect for me. I wore them one time for a few hours, and they're already falling apart.

I LOVE this shoe! I’ve been wearing this shoe for three days to give it a little time to see how I like it. It is so comfortable. Even though the heel is relatively short, there is cushioning underneath the ball of the foot that is very comfortable. And even though the shoe has appointed toe it is still roomy enough and comfortable enough for your entire foot. That said, if you have really bad bunions this issue probably won’t work out for you. I wear a size 11 with a medium width and it fits true to size. I purchased it in the nude color and it looks great with dress pants as well as my Capri pants. You can dress it up or dress it down. I have walked all over town where I live with no discomfort. I like that the sling back strap is adjustable so you can loosen or tighten it.

The length, 8.5, was perfect. They are a little snug on one foot but that’s the one with a bunion. A wide width would have been too wide so I can deal with the little snugness. Otherwise it’s a BEAUTIFUL and CLASSY shoe.

I love these shoes. I don't wear heels at all and I tend to lean toward very comfy shoes so finding dressy shoes is always a struggle for me. I purchased these for a wedding at the last minute so I didn't have time to break them in and I was still able to DANCE ALL NIGHT! What a huge win!

I bought these flats to be my wedding shoes and decided to wear them during my engagement photoshoot to get used to them. Worn less than 2 hours in perfect weather, the material on the tips of both flats actually started to slough off! I love the style of these shoes, but am so disappointed that they have become disfigured with such LITTLE use! I feel as though I no longer want to wear these. I am glad that I know this now - I would have been appalled if this had happened on my wedding day!

After 2 back surgeries in the last 2 years, I’ve struggled finding my style without wearing heels. These shoes are SO sexy, sleek, and super comfortable, I bought all the colors. Fantastic to find comfortable shoes this stylish. 5 stars!!

Very pretty shoe that looks sophisticated without causing pain. I tried this shoe in 3 colors - silver, crème brûlée and black. The black and silver were softer leather than the crème brûlée, but all were fairly comfortable right out of the box. The silver is rather shiny, but pretty. NOTE - the description says the silver is synthetic, but the actual shoe is stamped as being a leather upper. The crème brûlée has a warm tan tone. I usually wear either a 9.5 or 10 medium width. In this shoe, I thought the 10 medium was good but was afraid it would be too long if/when the toe stretches. In this instance, 9.5 wide actually fit best since it let my foot sit further forward. .

Being very petite, I never felt comfortable in flats. The Naturalizer Banks Pump seems a little less of a pump and more of a flat with a little extra height. They didn’t have a size 4.5 in the neutral color and the black color so I ordered one in a 4.5 and one in a size 5 and they both worked out. If you are looking for a comfortable, flattering shoe, look no more! I highly recommend!

These were a little more then I was looking to spend on a red shoe I might not wear that often, but they are SO comfortable and cute I decided to keep them. They feel like I can wear them all day comfortably, the small heel is nice and I love slingback style shoes. The color was named something like hot sauce, I consider that kind of orange-red, but they were not. I was looking for more of a blue-red, which they were. Totally recommend these shoes!

I bought these in red suede. Elegant and super comfortable, right from the beginning, and on both feet, as mine are slightly different in length and arch height. So I would say this style is somewhat adaptable to a person's foot imperfections, which is kind of amazing to me. I plan to buy more in other colors!

I often wear a 10 in dress shoe, 11 in running shoes. Ordered a 10 and 10.5 and kept the 10.5. I love them. Bought the hot sauce color to wear with a formal floor length black evening gown and am now ordering them in black for work. They are ridiculously comfortable. Love the pointy toe and low heel. A definite win.

While the pointy toe and lower vamp makes the shoe dressy, it miraculously did not scrunch my toes! Extremely comfortable right out of the box, love the low block heel for stability.

Love these shoes! Have bought four in different colors. Can wear with jeans or dresses, Low heel is comfortable yet stylish. The high heels popular now are so bad for ones body alignment, men don't have to walk around in uncomfor table shoes,why should women

I love these shoes. I have a sometimes a slim foot but found that these worked pretty well because they are flat. I adjusted the strap so I don’t walk out of them. They are very stylish and rather comfortable even though there is no arch support. Im very pleased with them. I bought the black leather and the grey suede. I did go down a size as was suggested and it worked. I’m usually an 8 1/2 slim or narrow and the 8 narrow was perfect in the length.

These are beautiful shoes. The color (boysenberry) is very pretty. The width was great but I could not get them to stay on my feet. The back strap slide off even when I tightened it as much as I could. It just would not stay put! I have had issues in the past with sling backs so it may be just my foot shape. Sadly, I am sending them back,

I love these shoes! They are stylish, well made and comfortable. Unfortunately I had to return them since I have a narrow foot and they do not come in narrow. But I took a chance.

I was looking for a low heeled dress shoe for summer. I like the sling back and the shape of this shoe. I normally wear size 9M, and that is what I ordered. The fit was good, but I felt that the bottom of the shoe was slippery, especially the heel, so I reluctantly sent them back.

I wore these shoes for two hours and the paint chipped off all the gold and now they are ready for the trash. What a waste!
