Dearfoams Women's Original Comfort Elastic Lace Sneaker, Black, 6 Review

These shoes are really different then any other sneakers I have owned before. They have some pros and some cons. I have attached photos and a video after trying them on, the first time.Pros:1. Pretty cute.. definitely unique. I really like the gold accents in back (as shown in the video.)2. Very lightweightThey’re easy on joints (knees, ankles, etc.) and bad backs, as they don’t add but what feels like mere couple of ounces to your feet. It’s almost like bearing no weight on your feet at all.3. A little platform added, which I like for a tad of height without the danger.(About 1 in. Maybe 1 and 1/4. I’m sure it’s mentioned here, but it’s not more then that. Likely an inch.)4. Memory foam cushioning for enhanced comfort during long-time wear.5. True enough to size to wear a sock or not. (Not under-sized, and doesn’t fall off my heel. I’m size 8, I fit the size 8.) I have enough room for a sock to be added.6. Cute color choices are available.7. The dearfoam’s name =‘s comfort and quality. They always seem to last, so I’d expect the same here.8. Overall cozy9. Elastic laces.. NO strings 👍10. They slide on, and STAY on.Cons:1. ExpensiveI’d rate these fairly priced between $35 - $40, $45 MAX! That’s the most I would personally pay, but as we know on Amazon, prices can change due to color, size and even day.. so it may be possible to get them in that range, but for myself personally, that would be my price for them based on everything about them.2. Not pet-friendlyThe fuzzy ‘felt-like’ material is unique and honestly kind of cute and trendy to me, check out (zoom in) photos to see the material b4 purchase. But it attracts pet hair and other particles VERY easily. I have long haired cats and 3 Siberian huskies, so it wasn’t the BEST choice of sneaker material for me. Still cute though.3. White platform color can get marked up fairly easily.I have plenty of shoes like this though. It’s not anything at all atypical. I must make note of the inevitable though.4. More seasonal They don’t look or really feel like spring or summer shoes.The lighter shade of grey maybe most of all, but the material might make it more of a winter and fall pair of shoes to the feet and to the eyes.5. the tongue can bunch up while sliding on, but I haven’t had it happen during wear.** I see somebody stating these are narrow. I have a regular width foot, but I also have a bunion on one foot. These sneakers look slightly narrow, but don’t feel that way to me. I’d say to anybody who feels this way from the get go, just like all shoes, give them some wears to break in. I happen to find the width fine. My foot is not narrow for sure.**So, while there are both pros and cons with these slide-ons, I hope that this review will help you realize if they are worth your hard earned money or not. I love most everything Dearfoams create. These aren’t my favorite of theirs, but the quality is still seemingly very good, I’d just recommend a bit of a more practical price tag on these babies.I’m giving this product 3.75 stars overall, for value for cost-quality-aesthetics-fit-fashion-wearability. That’s an above average, good rating, and I think it’s a very fair one, with everything considered.⭐️⭐️⭐️+ 3/4I hope that my review has been helpful :).

I was so excited when my shoes arrived and the quality and look of the shoe was so much better in person than online. BUT!!!! They are not true to size. I normally wear a size 6 and these fit more like a 7-7.5. I am so disappointed because a size 6 is the smallest that they sell.

These are a bit disappointing, mostly due to ill fit.I ordered my typical size and was honestly thinking I had mistakenly ordered men’s shoes they were so long with so much extra room at the toes.They are sort of narrow as well, but given the material is so soft and the laces are just elastics they stretch to accommodate as needed.The tongue gets messed up when you try to slip them on and you need to bend down or sit down and fiddle with them to get them straight so they aren’t folded over at the bottom of your feet. They aren’t as easy to get on as any of my other slippers.Because of the oversized fit, sometimes when I walk upstairs my heal comes out of the shoe. It’s just so big fitting in my own regular size that I probably won’t wear them too much.The soles are thick and rubber and a crisp white color. They are perfect for if you need to go get mail or go in a cold garage or need some thick soles.I feel like the faux shoe look of them is nice enough looking that I’d planned to wear for local errands, getting kids from school, etc- but at the end of the day the too long and big fit of them make it so that I don’t feel safe driving in them.I also feel like they are overpriced at $50 for an ill sized shoe. If the sizing issues were fixed I’d still think they are a bit overpriced for house slipper sort of weight and make.Overall I don’t recommend these.

Cheap junk.

These Comfort Elastic Lace Sneakers in gray have a lot of endearing qualities. First, they are super light weight on your feet. Each shoe, in my case women’s size 11, weighs under 8 ounces (7.6 oz – 215g) which is remarkably feathery for a shoe with a full upper.Next, the elastic laces are very convenient, but they are not adjustable, and the shoes are not designed to be stepped into. You have to hold the tongue up and slip them onto your feet by hand. If you are older, you will probably have to sit down to slip them on.The soles are nice and cushy, and the insoles are contoured to provide an extra level of support, making the bottoms of your feet well cushioned and supported on most surfaces. The soles bend well and accommodate uneven surfaces, but they do not have significant ribbing or “tread” for loose ground. Great for a day of shopping or a casual city walk, they offer a good support, and their light weight makes them nearly disappear.The drawback of this particular model is that it has a slightly unusual shape or profile. The toe box is a little bit longer than average, which would be great for people who have a protruding second toe, but it is also a bit narrow. So, for me, although they are a little too long, they are also narrow enough to put pressure on the sides of my feet. If I selected a size lower, the length might come down to a better fit, but since these 11’s are already a little narrow, probably be too tight.I have an average width foot, proven by many pairs of shoes the same size that fit comfortably in their standard width. I think these would be perfect for someone with a slightly narrower foot. Since sizing is so variable, I am not taking stars off for “fit”.So, these look to be durable, comfortable, and fashionable and carry a very good name. But, they are a bit long in shape and have no adjustment.(The information in this review was relayed to me by my significant other, who wore these all around for a few days and then reported her experience to me.)
