The Kensi boot is gorgeous! I got them in blue and I love them. They fit well and are comfortable. I am on my feet all day at work (hair stylist) and at the end of the day they were still comfy. What more could a girl ask for in a stylish and practical boot? As usual, Zappos has the best customer service. It's the only place I buy my shoes.

Cute shoes but not quite the color I was hoping for to go with an outfit for the holidays. Even though I won't keep them, I will say they were comfortable. They are same heel height as a Born Oxford style I bought last year and have been very happy with. If you live in the Midwest, take note - the heels are suede. Definitely fair weather shoes.

You really want these shoes to be comfortable but they just are not. While my heel doesn't ache as much as in other heels and there is some arch support, the incline in this shoe is horrible. Even with inserts my foot just crashes into the front of the shoe and even though I got a smaller size, the back of my foot doesn't fill the shoe.

They are gorgeous and extremely uncomfortable. I had to take them back, couldn't walk 10 feet, but I am bad in high heels, I was hoping with the wedge, they'd be okay.

These could actually be wearable if they had a platform in front to reduce the sharp angle the forefoot in forced into. Plus they would look better too! I couldn't even walk in them. I'm not getting bunions for anything! Never have and hopefully never will. I thought Born was built for style and comfort. They must have sold the company - they certainly aren't like they used to be.

I've been looking for cute pumps that don't hurt my bunion and these are comfortable for my feet and the Wide is wide enough but the toe-box is cramped (like my pinkie toe feels squeezed) I'm keeping them though, because I like the fit other than that and I'll have my cobbler widen the toe box. They aren't sexy-looking enough for my normal taste, but they aren't ugly. I'm used to wearing very sexy high-heeled pumps though. Have to stop wearing them, thus bought these.

I love these. They are really cute, great for work or play and super comfortable. I ended up buying them in two colors. I ended up with half a size smaller then I usually wear.

I love this shoe! This is the second pair of Clarks that I have purchased and is by far my favorite work shoe. I can wear it every day, all week, and my feet don't hurt at all! As soon as I can, I'm going to get another pair in brown!

I absolutely love these comfortable shoes. They are just the right heel height that I can wear them all day. They are just what I expected from Clarks.

Good leather, well made, lots of padding on insole. Slightly tight for the first day but starting to conform to my feet by the second wearing.

Very comfortable shoes. I also purchased the shoe in Black and found the black pair run about 1/2 size larger than the brown pair.

These shoes are the prettiest and most comfy heels I have ever worn. I tried them on after a long 14 hour day where my foot was on fire from my arthritis, but these shoes were awesome - I could have walked a few miles in them for sure. The toe box is a bit more snug which is good for someone like myself who might fall wearing heels as I don't much. The detailing at the top is very classic and the arch support is great. I am keeping these shoes and hoping to order the other color soon.

Love. I have wide feet, and these actually fit and are comfortable all day long. Squishy-feeling insole. Super duper cute for work. Yay!

I love these shoes. I can wear them to work or out.. I have foot issues that prevent me from wearing most cute shoes. These are comfortable enough to wear all day.
