“I got these as my third pair of Bared shoes and they are great as a discrete and flexible yet classy option, either with a suit for the office or to dress down with a pretty dress and stockings. One of the best things about them is that the salesperson was able to add holes in the strap at the exact right place to accomodate my wider foot, orthotics and narrow heel, so they never rub or feel too loose or too tight. Custom shoes!
The reason I am giving these only 4 stars is because after wearing them a couple of months, I had to make tiny scalpel cuts on the inner, around the heel, to remove minuscule stones/dirt that had found their way under the leather somehow. The tiny bumps they made had been rubbing and hurting my feet -- but once I cut them out the shoes went back to being super comfy and still get regular wear, for days when I need a little black shoe.”
“Great style and comfort, that also fits my orthotics! I've had this pair for several years now and I still always get compliments on the chic oxford style.”
“Absolutely love these shoes ,on my feet all day and am pain free for the first time ,.
Also get so many compliments about how great the shoes look
Have 3 pairs of Bared shoes and love them all”
“Love my Parrot's and all my Bared shoes for that matter. I have a narrow foot, and with the help of a lovely sales person I was fitted with the perfect insole so these bad boys are snug as a bug. It was a great purchasing experience overall . Thanks so much – I'll be back for my next Bared fix very soon.”
“I get compliments on these shoes all the time. Great support and easy to pair with most outfits. Initially they did pinch a bit around the heel but softened eventually.”
“I purchased the Parrot shoe for work and I'm really glad I did. They are comfortable, look good and they fit my orthotics - a combination that's hard to find! I've had a few people comment on how nice they look too. I think this is a great shoe!”
