“I want to love Bared Shoes so much, but these shoes just didn't live up to my expectations, based on the amount of 5 star reviews! They are, of course, very well made and look lovely. However they do cut into the side of my foot (just below my pinky toe) and so when I wear them, I need to wear a blister-band-aid as a preventative measure. After a night of dancing at a friend's 30th birthday, the balls of my feet were actually in a lot of pain and had that 'red raw' feeling from rubbing inside the shoe. I have given a 3 star rating because a) they are a well made, quality shoe, b) I'm sure I will continue to wear these for shorter periods of time or if I know I don't have to stand/walk lots, and c) I know that all feet are different and I wouldn't want to discourage anyone from purchasing just because they weren't my dream shoe.”
“I've already recommended Bared Footwear to so many friends and received plenty of complements. I wanted a pair of stylish shoes shoes enough for any occasion yet comfortable enough to wear all day and evening. These shoes deliver. I'm now obsessed with looking at all the other styles and waiting for the right occasion to treat myself to my next pair.”
“I have super wide feet, my husband calls them small windowless buildings, and thick ankles. The Rhea fit perfectly straight out of the box, which almost never happens (I did request long ankle strap). They fit perfectly and are so comfortable. I will buy again for sure!”
“Bought these to jazz up a fairly plain dress for a wedding, they are comfortable and stylish, and did the trick. I am tall and really can't wear high shoes. Very happy to find these. I had some problem with the website initially and I received a phone call back that day (actually evening ) and nothing was too much trouble. Great Service.”
“I really love these shoes :) They are really flattering to your ankles and legs, with just a little height in the heel. They feel lovely/easy to wear, but also look quite special and eye-catching. I have them in leopard calf hair, and also now the magenta velvet. I'm quite fussy with how a shoe fits, as I used to wear ballet flats that I know weren't doing my feet any good (no support etc), but I feel confident wearing these that I'm doing the right thing to avoid problems as I get older :)”
“I have the rather furry leopard rhea and they do attract plenty of attention/comments. I do find the buckle on the ankle strap a little flimsy because the leopard is not a flat fabric. I love shoes that you can wear comfortably straight away without getting blisters and so very happy.”
“These are gorgeous shoes, so comfortable. I wear them casually with a pair of jeans for day then dress them up with a black dress for evening. Many compliments I love them.”
“I’ve lost track of the number of compliments I’ve received wearing my magenta Rhea flats.
I’ve never had to wear them in. No blisters - they have been ultra comfortable from the get-go.
I’ve waterproofed the shoes and have not had any marks since wearing them 3-4 times a week.
Will definitely be buying more.”
