Vince CamutoVince Camuto Women's Elvin Bootie

Apologies for the length and detail of this review in advance! I just LOVE THESE SHOOTIES SO MUCH that I want to provide helpful information for others thinking about purchasing them. As with every Vince Camuto shoe I've encountered, these shooties fit true to size and look great on and off the foot! I admit I am an experienced platform heel wearer, but I'm also essentially a giraffe-legged, fast-walking bulldozer. Despite the height and more stiletto-like profile, I've noticed zero stability issues no matter how fast or slow I walk. Furthermore, I am an Army veteran, so my body actually feels like it's 90 rather than 56. So when I say these are comfortable to wear, walk, or stand in all day, I mean they are the Rolls Royce of platform heels! I've even gone grocery shopping after work in these things without any foot fatigue or pain. BUT, keep in mind that while these are a perfect option for those wanting to venture into tall heels, you might still need to get used to walking around with your foot at such an angle. That said, these are the heels to train your foot in because they are so well made with a perfectly balanced heel to platform design. I first wore mine after working remotely for 4 years and not wearing anything less comfy than slippers or sneakers and took to these like a fish just switching to a bigger aquarium.I'm a true size 8.5 with normal width feet. These shoes did not cramp my feet, pinch my toes, or slide around. If you wear them barefoot or nothing thicker than tights, they are a perfect fit. I cannot promise as to fit with a sock or a wide foot, but my honest guess is that they would be comfortable if you size up. Not sure if you should go up half or one full size, though. So unless there are reviews speaking to wide foot/sock wearers, I recommend waiting for a price dip or a "like new" option and getting both sizes if you can. Then just keep the better fit.Just as a note, when you first start to put this shoe on, it may seem like you won't be able to get your foot in...especially with the suede pairs. Don't panic. It's just the angle of the arch. Push through that and you should then notice an extremely comfortable fit. I actually slip a shoe horn in at the heel right before I start dropping my heel in and they slide right on.UPDATE: Now I own the black and chocolate smooth leather, and the blue and nude colored suede. The nude suede looks AMAZING with a light brown, beige, cream, or light/bright pastel pant (including yellow). The blue suede is drop dead GORGEOUS with jeans or blue dress pant. The black, of course, looks great with everything. The chocolate, as with all brown shoes, looks best when it's a good match next to the brown shade of your outfit. Regardless, the overall profile of this shootie is classy with ANY pant from denim to tuxedo dressy, skinny to super wide leg, capri to floor length. These shooties on the foot are everything you could want in a work, dress, night out, or cute outfit shoe.Finally, the quality of the zipper, upper, and heel is unbelievable. I have a rule that I will not wear a heel that I cannot run in if I needed to. By "run" I don't mean an Olympic gold medal sprint, but definitely more than just a slow shuffle/jog. I can, and have, run in these shooties. They do not slow me down one bit...people have jokingly commented on me breezing past them in high heels when they are wearing flats. The bonus is you can take them off and use them as a weapon, lol. And while I said that for a little light humor, it's actually true because the heel on these shoes is very solid. I have worn the black pair at least once a week for the past 6 months (including a .25 mile walk between my car and work building on asphault, concrete, and stairs). The plastic heel caps still look new with no shifting or weird wear pattern. The leather is also still in excellent condition with no weird wrinkling or buckling. I'm truly baffled by how well made these are at this price point.[Vince Camuto peeps, if you are reading this - Please, for the love of everything good in the universe, never discontinue these shoes!!!!!!!!]

Very high-quality and incredibly comfortable.

I love these booties! Dress them up for work or down with a pair of jeans. I bought these twice in black and the tan color. Soft breathable leather, comfortable padded insole. Solid heel with a comfortable heel height, I could wear these all day at my job that requires me to be on feet most of the day. The classic design is a staple for most closets. No pinching or blisters after 12 hours on the first wear, true to size. Strong metal zipper and zero fading or staining in color after stepping in a puddle. Water resistant not waterproof.

I absolutely love these shoes, I get lots of compliments on them. They are such a basic shoe but tends to pull the outfits together. Super comfortable. True to size I wear an 8 and got an 8, they aren't too tight or loose. Looks just like the picture. You can dress them up or down.

I am a size 6W. I was a bit nervous about this purchase until I slipped in. The fit is exact (true). I love the feel of rhe material, the look of the sole and its chic appearance. The zipper slides up and down eadily. She is a keeper.For more comfort a 1/2 size is recommended for the girls the need a W-fit.

Love these. I am not frequently comfortable in such high heels. Such a nice surprise!!!

Love!

I like the shape and feel of the shoe however, i am so disappointed in the packaging of my shoes.. the box was opened and without tape on one end. Only one side was taped and a plastic string around the box.. No paper in the box they were just thrown in the box and it really disappointed me that they came like thus. The first pair i bought the packing and the box was perfect but not this time.. i am surprised i got them at all. . Surely, you have to understand its important to package the materials with the upmost if care.. I will be sendi g this pair back
