Just the bottom outer sole is a little weird/less elegant, but I still wear it with my business clothes as well as casual. Thinking of getting another pair. 2008-08-18 12:31:55 Privo Oso Reviewer: Anonymous from DC suburbs Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt wider than marked Shoe Arch: No arch support Cute and Comfortable - I have been wearing this in black for months and just ordered it in red. Very little break-in was required. I have a little arthritis and some other foot pain and these are really comfortable with bare feet or pantyhose. Probably not good for narrow feet. 2008-08-18 06:28:26 Privo Oso Reviewer: Anonymous from Philadelphia, Pennsylvania Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Excellent arch support Standing on Air - I love these shoes. Extremely comfortable. They were perfect so I sent for a second pair. I am a teacher. I stand all day. These shoes are so comfortable and easy to wear that the day passes without aching feet. That is a gift!!!!!! 2008-08-16 15:13:15 Privo Oso Reviewer: Miss4Shoes Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support I love these boots! They are retro and feminine. The heel is not that high and very comfortable to walk in. Like the other customer, the toe box is wide and I didnt buy a wide width. The shaft of the boot does fit snug, but not tight. 2008-08-15 08:16:48 Privo Oso Reviewer: Tina L from Long Island, NY Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support Comfy and Cute! I love this shoe! It's comfy, casual and looks great. Although I feel the back of the shoe is slightly higher than most other shoes, it doesn't bother me much. I love that it has good support, rather than wearing other ballet type flats that have no support. I would definitely recommend this shoe! 2008-08-11 12:21:53 Privo Oso Reviewer: Happy F from Mt. View, CA Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support The shoe was a little tight when I first started wearing it. After three wearings, it is very comfortable. It looks great. I got the red and I have received several compliments on them. Other reviews mentioned that they smell after awhile, but I have not (yet?) experienced any odor. I am delighted with the arch support in this shoe. It isn't the same as an athletic shoe, but for a flat, it is good. 2008-08-03 07:39:14 Privo Oso Reviewer: Leigh R from Atlanta,Ga Overall: Shoe Size: Felt a half size larger than marked Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support The most comfortable shoe I have ever worn! I have never written a review for anything but I must spread the word about this shoe! I work retail in a very high end dept. store and have very sensitive feet. I stand on marble floors 9 hours a day, usually in pain even in my "granny" Danskos which are not dressy at all. I needed cute flats to wear with skirts and the style of these are perfect. I wore these on a Saturday (the busiest day of my week) and almost cried because for the first time in 6yrs my feet did not ache, hurt or burn. I have always had pain in the ball of my foot but not with these! They actually felt good! They did rub my heel a little but a heel pad will fix that. I did use my gel arch support as extra insurance of comfort so the shoe was fine even though it felt a little loose without it. If you work retail, this shoe will change your life. I am buying one in every color! 2008-07-30 14:04:02 Privo Oso Reviewer: Christine from East Haven, CT Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support Wore them for 5 hours straight out of the box! I've bought and returned a lot of shoes lately as nothing seems to fit or more importantly, be comfortable! LOVE THEM!!! Am ordering more in different colors! 2008-07-28 08:18:23 Privo Oso Reviewer: Diane K from NYC Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support Best shoes ever! These are my favorite shoes. They are flats but have decent support so your feet don't hurt when you are in them all day. I live in NYC and do a lot of walking and these are by far my favorite summer shoes to spend all day in. I have the black ones and they are dressy enough for skirts but not too fancy. 2008-07-11 12:33:11 Privo Oso Reviewer: Erin from Austin, TX Overall: Shoe Size: Felt a half size larger than marked Shoe Width: Felt narrower than marked Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support Love it! I love this shoe. I got them in red, and I get compliments every time I wear them. They look great with pretty much anything, but capris especially. I can't normally wear ballet slipper-type styles because my feet are different sizes, and rather narrow, so the shoe won't stay on one or both feet. I don't know why, but that hasn't been a problem with these. The back of the shoe does chafe my heel, and I can't wear them without either soft heel pads or sheer socks - but I have that problem with most shoes. On very hot days (I live in Texas) my feet tend to really overheat in these if I'm outside much, but that's the biggest problem I have. 2008-07-08 14:59:39 Privo Oso Reviewer: Anonymous Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support Very comfortable - I am on my feet most of the day teaching and these shoes are very comfortable. I have terrible trouble with heel pain, so I am very picky about my shoes. I have these in the gold and black and they are great. I think super flat shoes make people's legs look stumpy, but these shoes have enough of a heel that they still give your calf some shaping. I ordered them in my usual size 7 and they fit fine out of the box, even with my narrow foot. I usually wear them without socks and they don't rub. 2008-06-28 20:01:43 Privo Oso Reviewer: Anonymous from SF, CA Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Excellent arch support Super Comfy w/Support - I'm in retail and on my feet ALL day long. These have the support close enough to a clog with a sleeker, much more feminine look. A great alternative to jumbo clogs. 2008-06-09 19:22:15 Privo Oso Reviewer: Jennifer from Minneapolis, MN Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support Very comfortable flat - I wasn't sure if this was going to look too dowdy or cute, but it is pretty cute, especially with a casual black dress. It would also look cute with cropped pants. The comfort is incredible from the get-go. I also have very flat feet and need a bit of support, which this appears to have. 2008-06-09 18:07:28 Privo Oso Reviewer: Anonymous from Dallas, TX Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support Comfortable and cute - but...I ordered the red and within a few weeks the color was rubbing off and it is hard to find matching shoe polish. Also, they really do make your feet stink. I have other Privo shoes and that is not a problem with them. 2008-06-06 10:37:32 Privo Oso Reviewer: Anonymous from New York, NY Overall: Shoe Size: Felt a half size larger than marked Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support Attractive and comfortable - These shoes are both comfortable and stylish. They look great with jeans, capris or a dress, and they look even better than they did in the picture. It didn't take long to break them in. I usually wear either an 8 or 8 1/2, with these shoes the 8 fits me but slips a little on the heel, but heel inserts solved that problem. As usual, Zappos fast free delivery can't be beat! 2008-06-02 07:58:18 Privo Oso Reviewer: Anonymous from Brooklyn, New York Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Excellent arch support Comfy & Stylish - Nice work shoe. Comfortable, good arch support & stylish enough for work. Recommended. 2008-05-21 14:36:00 Privo Oso Reviewer: Jennifer from St Louis Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support Privo's aren't for me :( I just don't get the hype about the Privos. I keep trying them, hoping I will find a pair that I like, but they always fit so weird! I think it is time for me to give up on them. Anyway, here is my review on the shoe! 1. They look wide, and they make your foot look wide. Quite a feat to perform on feet as narrow as mine are. 2. The angle of the shoe (where the shoe bends a bit at the ball of the foot - towards the other foot) is a very strange angle. I have had one other pair of shoes angled that way, (the ballet slipper croc) and it just doesn't work for me. It looks weird and it feels uncomfortable too. It is normal for a shoe to have an angle there, but this one is just strange. 3. The toes go up at the end. I don't know who finds this comfortable, but I can tell you, if you stand/walk for hours at a time, that is NOT a good design. Talk about pain. 4. The back seemed to be a bit high up on the ankle, but would not make the shoe unwearable if worn with sheer hose. 5. I disagree that this shoe feels larger than marked, I followed this recommendation and ordered a 9.5 when I normally wear a 10, and the shoe felt just like a standard 9.5. Maybe they run large for Privos? Also, I felt they looked a bit dowdy for the style of shoe they are going for. I am 32 yrs old, and I like the cute shoes, but I need comfort as well 2008-05-18 05:52:43 Privo Oso Reviewer: Anonymous from NYC Overall: Shoe Size: Felt a half size larger than marked Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support Nice - I like the top of the shoe, lets you wear it with casual dresses, capris, pants, you name it. I ordered the red and the bronze, and will keep the bronze as I already have red Crestons. Comfy. Unlike other Privos, these seem to be only a 1/2 size larger, not full... I agree that I prefer leather, but if you need something for major hiking around town or Europe, then this is the type for you. Just air them out and spray with a bit of air freshener. (Here is something someone can invent, really good shoe odor killers that really work!). 2008-05-15 12:13:13 Privo Oso Reviewer: Elizabeth from San Francisco, California Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support Shoe odor issues - This shoe is, indeed, one of the most comfortable I've ever owned. I wore them for two weeks up and down France and had a delightful time without a single blister or foot cramp. The problem? The synthetic inner sole starts to smell over time... really bad, in fact! And I know it's not just me, because my other shoes are all fine. For the first couple of weeks you'll love them, but after that they become hopelessly useless due to the rank odor. 2008-05-13 06:09:23 Privo Oso Reviewer: Debbie from Virginia Overall: Shoe Size: Felt a half size larger than marked Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Excellent arch support Great Shoes - These shoes are some of the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn. The cushy insole hugs your feet and makes for great walking shoes. I wore them in Europe over a two week period and highly recommend them. They look great with jeans too. 2008-05-10 08:44:34 Privo Oso Reviewer: Rose from SF California Overall: Shoe Size: Felt a half size larger than marked Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support Oso - Love the Privo for comfort they run about a 1/2 size larger than I usually wear. This shoe was comfortable but the back is a little high it seems to rub. I hope it does not bother me after all day wear. 2008-05-08 21:28:22 Privo Oso Reviewer: Anonymous from Chicago, IL Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support Cute and comfortable - These shoes are very cute and super comfortable. They look good dressed up or with jeans. I walk all over the city in them and I feel like I've got slippers on. 2008-05-08 18:18:03 Privo Oso Reviewer: Msb from near Boston, MA Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Excellent arch support Terrific slip-on - I love Privos and these are a perfect example. They are very comfortable and have pizzazz. I purchased the chestnut color, which is a handsome brown. They are delightful low, comfy slipons that can go almost anywhere (probably not the prom, but that is just one woman's opinion)! I expect that you will turn to them as the easy, reliable, attractive shoe that can take you through your entire day's events. 2008-05-06 08:06:24 Privo Oso Reviewer: Eleanor W from California Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Excellent arch support Comfort - The minute you put on the Privo Oso shoe its like walking on air very comfortable. They look great on my feet and I am completely satisfied with the shoes and the wonderful service of Zappos, thank you very much. Sincerely, Eleanor W 2008-04-27 21:51:09 Privo Oso Reviewer: Anonymous from Davis, CA Overall: Shoe Size: Felt true to size Shoe Width: Felt true to width Shoe Arch: Excellent arch support The best! I am on my feet teaching all day and these shoes are great! They were a little big, so I just put a mole skin in the heel and they fit like a glove. I also have a tendency to have my feet get really hot and sweaty, but not in these shoes. I will totally buy them again!
