Love these! They're classy and very comfortable. I'm typically a size 7; I ordered a 7 and it's a perfect fit. I seem to gravitate to CL brand shoes, I have a few different pairs and I'm never disappointed. A quality shoe at a great price is hard to find.
Ordered these shoes for an outdoor wedding. They were the perfect. I’m typically between a 7.5 & and 8, but the 8 fit perfect. They had a great instep so I was able to wear for long hours and were completely comfortable. The inside was soft material making it durable in warm weather without having to add powder. I was surprised how comfortable they were
Because I've bought Chinese Laundry shoes for quite some time, I knew I needed to order a 7.5 instead of my usual size 7...and I made the right decision EXCEPT that for some reason the left shoe is a little wider and longer than the right! It kept slipping off the first time I wore the wedges. My feet tend to run a little wide, especially in the summer when the heat makes them swell a bit. So I was surprised that this "medium" was wider than I expected. Good for me but I wonder about this wedge for a woman who has a true medium or slightly narrow foot!...But they looked so great with my outfit that I didn't want to return them. Instead, I bought an insert for the shoe and it didn't slip off my foot.
Comfortable and good quality shoe. Very elegant style and flattering for feet. I’m between a 6.5-7 and the 7 fits perfectly.
Only gave these 3:5 stars because they stretched quickly and I’ve only worked them twice. This wedge is super comfortable! Visibly, it’s an adorable shoe and the gold is the perfect color. Shiny enough for daytime use and for work. I just hate that they stretched so fast! Had I known that they‘d stretch out and widen after two uses (and I have a narrow foot), I would have purchased a similar style and by a different brand.
I love these wedges! I was diagnosed with plantar fasciitis in my foot and by my doctor told that wedges are the best type of shoe to wear. These are great with dresses, jeans or even shorts. I’m going to add more colors to my wish list!
They are very comfortable to wear. They look very nice in a professional work setting. I buy these for work & own in many colors. When they wear out i I but another pair. You can’t beat the price & style.
I purchased these shoes a little less than two months ago as a replacement for Dexflex wedges previously available from Payless. I was willing to pay more than Dexflex because Chinese Laundry seemed like a higher quality brand. I'm sorry to say they're falling apart after only a handful of wears. The faux leather on the heels scuffs easily, and the inserts and interior are so flimsy they're literally crumbling under my feet. The shoes are cute and comfortable, but I'm sorry to say I won't purchase again because the quality just isn't there. Seems wasteful to have to throw them out after only owning them for a few months.
