When trying on the Clarks Women's Desirae Lily Heeled Sandal, the first thing you'll notice is the quality of the leather. It feels soft against the skin and molds nicely to the contours of your foot, ensuring a snug fit without sacrificing comfort. The thermoplastic rubber sole provides excellent traction, making these sandals suitable for various surfaces.

I was looking for a shoe like this as I have a similar pair of navy Clark’s. I love the velcro closure and the heel is just the right height.
I am young and have bad knees. I've had meniscus surgery and chronic knee issues from an accident. It's hard to find a dress shoe that can be fashionable and worn for hours and not cause knee issues. These shoes were so comfortable. I wore them for hours at a funeral and then the following week all night at a wedding. I have them in 2 colors and will be getting a third. They go well with pants as well as a dress! My daughter who has a wide foot bought a pair in Wide width and thought they were great! You cannot go wrong with a Clark shoe! I wear a size 8.5M or 9M usually and the 9 in this shoe fit best. (my daughter wears a 9.5W - 10 W usually and she bought the 10W).
I loved these shoes EXCEPT that they were too wide and don't come in a narrow width. Otherwise they are exactly what I wanted. They are very stylish and I believe that they would be very comfortable.
If you are on the fence with these, just buy them! I have wide feet that are hard to find cute shoes that fit me comfortably and these more than do that! I wear these all day at work and walk up and down stairs for 9 hours a day and these feel great! I now have them in 4 colors and they are amazing! They DO run a tad large, I have found. I normally wear an 11 wide, these fit me better in a 10 (I originally bought in 11 and exchanged them) don't wait any longer.....buy these shoes!!
Oh my! I hated to send these back. They felt so good to my foot BUT the ankle strap was entirely too big.
These are very nice, comfy shoes. My daughter chose these to wear to a dance and get a lot of compliments on them
I so wanted to love these shoes. They have a very nice padded foot bed and just the right size heel. But....When I wore them the right ankle strap cut into my ankle and caused a sore. The left one is fine. I have smaller ankles and wear a size 8M. So it was not an issue of tightness at all cause I have to tighten them to the max and they are still a little loose on my ankle. The best I can figure out is that the velcro comes all the way over on one side and the "teeth" are exposed to rub the ankle. I do not know of any way to fix the problem.....There needs to be some space where the velcro ends on the strap sides. Otherwise, its going to dig into your ankle....
Has a little glittery look that I don’t really like but they are still cute and comfortable
