Alegria Kourtney Womens Professional Shoe

The shoes are used for work. They are light weight and comfortable and very pretty!

A little background information before I launch into my review...I am a teacher and on my feet all day. I am constantly searching for comfortable shoes. My mother saw Allegria shoes on QVC. These shoes have build-in orthotics, so while they are a little more money, they are supposed to be extra supportive. Thankfully, Amazon had these for much cheaper, and thanks to its great return policy, we decided to give them a shot.These shoes are made in Europe, so they come in European sizes. Unfortunately, I can only see the listing in US sizes, so I ordered this pair in a 7 - it turned out to be a 37 in EU sizes. (My mom ordered an 8, which turned out to be a 38).These shoes are VERY lightweight, even though they look like they would be bulky. When on your feet, they feel almost like Styrofoam, but in a good way. When first put these shoes on, my toes seemed 'snug' but not tight or uncomfortable. I've had shoes that have been too small and crushed my toes - not so with these shoes. I think the weird feeling came from the orthotics. I just wasn't used to the feeling of being supported.I wore them for a few days at work, and last Monday, I wore them for 12 hours - after school, to a dentist appointment, and then to dinner. NOT ONE BIT OF PAIN. They were comfortable all day, I felt absolutely zero discomfort. It solidified my decision: these shoes were awesome!On top of all of this, the design of the shoe is adorable. The maryjane-style shoes are a black iridescent material, almost like dragon scales. These are also Velcro, so it makes for convenience.Also - these shoes were wide on me. I have a slightly narrow foot, and usually run 7 to 7.5 in US sizes. You can see that these shoes run a bit wide, however.If you're on your feet all day like me...Give these shoes a shot!

So cute! Very comfortable! Love the Mary Jane style! The Velcro straps are innovative and hold really well. I highly recommend!

These shoes feel great and I like the style. I think they will be easy to clean which is a plus. The only downside is that there are little butterfly insets on the side of the soles that look dirty or stained. This is a bummer because I needed completely white shoes. I tried to clean them off, but it didn’t help very much.I love the arch support in these because I have very high arches and this is usually an issue for me. One of the arches does feel a little too far forward, which is weird.

I have very picky feet. These shoes were amazing from day 1. My feet didn't hurt, and my back and leg pain was less. However, after only a couple weeks, the fabric on the front of the shoe wore off. (I got the black embossed ones.) This doesn't look good at all! I do wear them almost every day for my work shoes, but I still didn't expect that much wear. I tried hiding it with a paint marker, and that worked until the spots got bigger. I bought these shoes about 4 months ago and I'm already looking to replace them. I'm going with the same pair of shoes again - because once I find some that make my feet happy I stick with them! - but I'm looking at some with a different material that will hopefully not wear off as easily! Fingers crossed!

Love the color! Was looking for an actual dark brown. Great quality. Very comfortable. Even came with a little gift.

I love them so far. I was looking for wide shoes since I can’t wear anything due to being in pain from several surgeries and every shoe is so narrow. I will come back and adjust the review after a few uses.

The orthotics and arch support made this shoe a great walking comfort for bunion and plantar fasciitis.

Good quality and attractive leather shoes. I have problematic feet (flat feet, previous plantar fasciitis) and these are very comfortable and supportive.
