Detailed Review
The CALTO Men's Invisible Height Increasing Elevator Shoes stand out for their ability to blend fashion with functionality. First and foremost, the aesthetic appeal cannot be understated. The classic design featuring a dual monk strap adds sophistication, making it an excellent choice for dressy events.
Comfort is another significant aspect to consider. Weighing only around 16 ounces, these loafers are quite lightweight, which means you can wear them for extended periods without discomfort. The genuine oxhide exterior combined with a pigskin lining makes for a soft yet durable footwear option.
Moreover, the shoes provide a discreet lift of up to three inches, allowing you to appear taller while maintaining a natural silhouette. It’s important to note that some users might experience a slight adjustment period as the shoes require breaking in for optimum comfort.
However, potential buyers should keep in mind that the sizing can run larger than expected. It is advisable to consult the size chart before making a purchase to ensure the best fit.

User Reviews
I received this after not being able to find any in store for an upcoming formal event - I was able to get nearly the same shoe that I was looking at for $109 plus since I am a bit on the modest height size, the 3" lift is certified! True to size (I went a half size down than I normally would go so they run a half size bigger than normal shoes) and the fit is great and comfortable. Purchasing tennis shoes from the same company.
They definitely add height, but at this price I would’ve also expected the shoe to be comfortable. It just isn’t. After wearing it for two weeks it still feels the same comfort level as if I just put my foot in the shoebox rather than the shoe. Zero fit, form or comfort. Then there is the sound… There’s just no way to walk in these without sounding like you are a horse clopping down the street. If the shoe was not so uncomfortable, then the sound would at least be humorous. Clop clop., Clop clop. Clop clop. You sound like Herman Munster in these.I would not buy these again.
Comfortble, Size was perfect but i really cannot understand why my sole turn into color blue i'd love to get an answer.
