5.0 out of 5 stars Flattering and Comfortable
Reviewed in the United States on May 15, 2016

These shoes are very comfortable and really flattering. The first pair I ordered from Amazon I returned because during the first week of wear, one of the shoes developed a problem on its tip--part of the leather pulled back. I think the shoe was defective as I have never had this problem with Kate Spade shoes before. I contacted Amazon and was told I could return the shoes. Amazon mailed out a new pair of shoes that day. I am very happy with the new pair. I will take them, as I routinely do with my more expensive shoes, to my cobbler to have Vivran added to the sole of the shoes. This process greatly extends the life of heeled shoes.

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful!
Reviewed in the United States on January 28, 2014

I am typically 9.5 in most shoes but I purchased size 10 in this one due to the pointy toe and the high heel. Having now tried on the shoe, I think my usual size would have been OK but I am keeping the 10s. The shoe itself is beautiful. I was looking for a twist on the usual black heels and this one is just perfect. It is a bit more dressy than most of my other heels and could also be paired with navy as well as black due to the blue/teal color. This is not a pair I would wear on a day that I would be running around from meeting to meeting but they are perfect for those days when I need to feel powerful and gorgeous... They would also easily take you from a day at the office to a date afterwards...

5.0 out of 5 stars fabulous pumps

The first time I wore these to a reception other people could not take their eyes off them. I received many compliments. These are striking, high-quality leather shoes, made in Italy. The fit is true to size. The heels are a little high, but "il faut souffrir pour être belle," right? In fact, they are pretty comfortable for high heels, but I probably wouldn't be able to wear them all day.The color is beautiful: a rich ruby red. Because they are such high quality, they have a professional but confident-sexy vibe to them -- looking good and don't I know it! --- rather than a slutty vibe.Let me be clear: they are NOT slutty. But my husband loves them. Great shoes for dress-up occasions -- they'll make you feel like a million dollars. They would also look extremely good with skinny jeans.I'm a stylish 50+ British woman living in St Louis.

4.0 out of 5 stars First off- beautiful shoe and great quality
Reviewed in the United States on May 28, 2015

I write this review to truly help ladies with sizing. First off- beautiful shoe and great quality. I am 5’3” 120 pounds slim athletic average width foot. I have shoes in my closet ranging in size from 6.5 to 8. I know you can relate – sizing is inconsistent amongst brands. This is what makes online buying a little stressful. When I find a deal on amazon, normally I try to try on the shoe in a store so I can be sure I’m ordering the right size but the shoes aren’t always available or in season. So here goes. With the shoe range I mentioned I do normally wear a size 7. I also really dislike the look of a big shoe on the feet. I definitely want it to fit and be comfortable but I don’t like boat looking feet! I’m a short girl. So I often purchase a 7 and if need be get it stretched. I read the reviews saying to size ½ up and others saying it was true to size so I was unsure. I figured since it’s a pointy shoe and patent leather which doesn’t stretch as much I’d go with the ½ size up. I also know my foot. My toes are a little on the long side and I thought I could probably use the extra room in the toe box so that also affirmed my choice to get a 7 ½ instead of a 7. So my advice would be to think about your foot shape, the material of the shoe (knowing you’ll get a little more stretch from leather.) I recommend anyone who wears mostly a size 7 but sometimes a size 7.5 go for the 7.5 in the Kate Spade Licorice. There is just the tiniest, slightest space in the back – a teeny, tiny gape where my heel should touch the back shoe but it’s really something that I think I only notice and will likely go away as I wear the shoe and it forms to my feet. This shoe feels comfortable for a heel and looks great. Very refined, sexy, classic nude pump. The caramel color is nude for my skin tone. I hope this review is helpful as you try to find the right size for you!

While the description says these shoes are made in Italy, the shoes say otherwise. They are made in China. Huge disappointment. These went back. Not paying $$$$ for shoes made in China. A shame as they are a very good looking shoe.

5.0 out of 5 stars It's a great shoe. Very comfortable
Reviewed in the United States on April 24, 2017

It's a great shoe. Very comfortable. The heel is just the right height to wear all day. I usually buy Jimmy Choo's Abel, but heard they were discontinuing the style. I was looking for something more affordable that I could wear all day and these are perfect.

Update: The heel broke 3 weeks ago and I think that shows how poorly made they are, considering I bought them in April. I've not had issues like this with other shoes. If I've had to replace a heel, it's because of years of wear & tear. It's a shame as I really like them.

5.0 out of 5 stars ... a Kentucky Derby party and these shoes were the PERFECT shoe to compliment my dress

I hosted a Kentucky Derby party and these shoes were the PERFECT shoe to compliment my dress!! Were they super comfortable allowing me to stand/dance/party/walk all night? No...but what heels are?! Could I wear them comfortably for at least 3+ hours? Yes, and then it was bearable after the usual discomfort set in. Got LOTS of compliments- perfect heel height, perfect toe point...loved them so much I bought in a 2nd color! Thanks Amazon for the great deal too!!!!

This is the perfect navy shoe!! Love it! I gave four stars instead of five because their is a small space at the back of the shoe which prevents it from being a close fit around your heel.
