Clarks Women's Cora Giny Loafers

1st off, I have the biggest feet of any woman I know and these fit well. I have a bunion on right foot and my 2nd toe is extra long, so often times it rubs front of shoe and becomes painful by end of day. I DO wear compression hose (I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THE ZETA BRAND- tried many brands and only Zeta didn't bind terribly at knee) so I don't have swelling in ankles or feet anymore on most days, so I can't say that these shoes would be good for foot/ankle swelling since that is a whole other issue (get ZETA hose TODAY if you have swelling). I usually wear a men's 10.5 4w and pretty much ruined my feet doing wet grocery store work for 8-10 hrs a day, for 38 years, with nearly no sit downs. When crocs came out, i thought it was a God send, cuz finally, 8-10hrs a day wasnt pure torture. But then, about 5-7 years wearing them, my arches had fallen, and feet widened and they caused excruciating pain everyday. I went to the Good Feet Store (I DO NOT RECOMMEND THEM---WAY TOO EXPENSIVE AND THEY UPSELL YA ON SHOES ETC) and purchased thier 'custom orthotics' (I feel like the drugstore Dr. Scholls computer would have been a better start for orthotics, but, I digress...). So now, I have GFS orthotics, expensive shoes and my feet still hurt ALOT. And, I never get to wear 'cute shoes' UNTIL I FOUND THESE CLARKS. This shoe, makes me smile when I look down at them. The orthotics work In them, and my feet are cute and happy---when I wear them on off days. I haven't tried them at work yet (8-10 hrs/day on concrete with only 1 half hour sit down), cuz I don't know if they are slip resistant. But I'm gonna give a different style a shot (my only issue with these shoes is they squeek a bit with the orthotics- so i'll try a different style to see if those squeek too) and have a separate pair to try at work. I have seen mixed reviews on the Clark's sold on Amazon, but since I've never worn Clark's before (and it seems as if ALL reasonably priced shoes 'aren't the quality they used to be') it's worth the risk to me. I hope these work for you, cuz my feet love them.

I have gone through 4 pairs of these shoes over the last 4 years wearing them almost daily. So when the last pair began to look bedraggled (they were still very comfortable though!), it was a no brainer to order another pair. In the past these shoes fit very well and were comfortable right out of the box. This pair, however, feels tight and short almost like it’s a size smaller. I did double check the markings on the shoe to confirm that they were the size I had ordered. I’m working at getting them stretched, but am disappointed that this is necessary. You may wish to order a size up.

I bought two pairs of these, one brown and one black. They fit perfect but they were stiff. I figured after wear they would soften a little, but no. Maybe I expected too much with the Clark's name, but I was disappointed in these in terms of comfort of the shoe material. After months of wearing, I found the upper part so stiff I even paid a shoe repair guy in my neighborhood to stretch them to make them more comfortable. I know these were value priced on Amazon during one of their sale days, so maybe you just get what you pay for. But I was hoping for a super comfortable shoe and wished I had simply ordered a size up. Both pairs look very nice though and they still look good after slogging through rain and lots of walking.

well-made, good fit, looked good

Comfortable all day! I am standing on my feet 7.30 hours of my 8 hour shift, and put around 4-5 miles of walking time during those 8 hours x 5 consecutive days a week. I purchased an x-wide, went half size up, replaced shoe inserts with a purchased medical shoe insert to avoid plantar fasciitis and keeps my feet comfortable all day. The elastic and zipper keeps my shoe snugged perfect on my foot without discomfort. While not this particular style, I have been wearing similar Clarks brand shoes for the past 15 years on this job. This is my 4th pair!

I've worn Clarks for about 2 decades. This shoe fits nicely on my foot as have all others I've bought. Put waterproofing on leather for rainy climes. Looks great for professional work setting and comfortable. Thanks

One other, much more charitable reviewer mentioned heel bed pain. I was limping halfway into a very light-activity day at work today (mostly spent at my desk) and now have blisters on the backs of both ankles. This was with very plush, wool-blend socks. (I wore them one other day with thinner socks, and was still uncomfortable but less so. I thought the wool ones would solve the problem, which they resoundingly did not.) My feet are not in any way normally difficult to fit or find shoes for (8 1/2 medium width, arch is a bit on the prominent side of average, but has never been a problem before), so I'm baffled at why I had such a bad time with these when others have applauded how comfortable they are. Maybe it's the same je ne sais quoi that makes comfortable ballet flats such a rare find for me? Sole seems well-constructed and padded. They're not quiet on hard floors, but not super loud or squeaky either. Toe box is weirdly small. (Yes, I have already tried a larger size; I originally ordered a 9 and returned those after it was clear that those weren't even going to stay *on* my heel when I stepped.) Cute-looking, but utterly unwearable for me; this was pain levels I expect from a few hours in heels and completely unacceptable for casual wear.

They were too narrow across the top too tight

The shoes were great, but it’s strange that I received the wrong size twice !!

Definitivamente mi marca de zapatos favorita, nunca me decepcionan. Excelente calidad y comodidad.

A pesar de que tengo otros zapatos Clarks y pedí la misma talla, me quedaron demasiado grandes y los tuve que regresar.

Aún hace calor y no he empezado a usarlos, pero se ven muy cómodos y flexibles. La piel nada dura y agradable, lo habitual para esta estupenda marca.
