User Reviews
I am in my sixties, yet when I wore these to a hair appointment, my 20-something, hip, fashion-forward stylist loved them, so much so that she bought the black/linen color as my color was processing.I love Trotters and find that 9.5W consistently fits my slightly wide feet well, and they don't necessarily look like old-lady comfort shoes.I will say, though that this is the first Trotters style where the wide width was a bit too wide in the heel. I was able to correct this with some adhesive heel inserts. I really like these shoes, so they were worth the extra trouble.
Good support and comfortable
I love this shoe, but it runs very wide, so I had to return it.
Really good looking and great arch support. Really comfortable even after a long day. Got lots of compliments on these. Great price on a really good shoe.
I love these shoes! They are fashionable, well made, comfortable and the stone color is perfect for the springtime. I admit that I have a big foot (size 9.5) and I’ve noticed with OTHER brands, that this style shoe makes my feet look huge which is not my favorite look! That is NOT the case with these- there is something about the cut of the fabric that covers the toes that makes my feet look normal and I really appreciate that!
These are very nice shoes and good quality. Unfortunately the pair I received runs large. I always take a 6.5 W in a Trotters shoe. The heels on these shoes slip and it looks like there is at least a 1/4 inch gap between my foot and the heel of the shoe and therefore my heel falls out of the shoe. Also, the sole of the shoe is not very flexible.
Shoes poorly packed in a too large box and not wrapped in tissue paper like department would have them. So presentation was poor. Furthermore, there wasn't a receipt for shoes, either. In regards to shoes, they seem to run very small, i.e. in the toe, width. I wear pretty consistent size, but wrong size and width. Will be donated. Recommend them? Yes.
Great shoe! Have custom orthotics for painful fallen arches, but don't need them with this shoe.They are casual, cute and comfortable. Since the shoe is fabric, I sprayed with Scotchguardbefore wearing. If I get a scuff, a toothbrush with a tiny bit of soap takes care of it. No issues so far.I love that they work with casual shirtdresses, skirts, pants, capris, etc. I Have a pair in every color.
