Aerosoles - Women's You Betcha Slip-on Loafer - Casual Comfort Style Flat with Memory Foam Footbed

I'm a huge Aerosoles fan, so when I was looking for a single pair of (relatively inexpensive) comfy and cute shoes that would see me through a 7 week travel/research trip abroad this summer, I instantly gravitated towards these loafers. They really hit the mark for the needs of my trip (they were the only daily-wear shoes I brought with me): I could walk for hours around cities and museums without aching feet, and they looked stylish and professional enough to wear during meetings or nicer meals.However, because I was wearing them constantly, problems with the make of the shoe also revealed themselves. While the loafers fit well to begin with, they had stretched so much by the end of my trip that they were practically falling off my feet with every step. The rubber soles did not hold up too well (far less than other day-to-day shoes I've owned, including other Aerosoles shoes), and the leather became so worn down at the seams of the shoe that there were holes at the toe and sides by the time I got back (in spite of the fact that they had stretched so much!).In sum: these loafers are cute, comfortable, and not too expensive - a great and versatile shoe to have in your rotation (I might recommend sizing down slightly, as they stretch quite a bit). However, if you're planning on wearing them frequently and/or doing extensive walking in them, they might not be the best choice.

The loafer look is something that - as a young (20-something) professional - I'm new to. I'm at a place where I'm trying to dress more mature so I'll be taken seriously, but also not look like a child in my mother's clothing; a happy middle place that's fashionable and trendy, but sophisticated. After seeing these and reading reviews, I thought they looked like the type of thing I needed and I got the impression that the brand had a reputation for prioritizing comfort. Perfect in theory... AND in practice.I wore these around town today for the first time and I actually forgot I was wearing new shoes. There's no 'breaking in' necessary because they're extremely comfortable from the start. I don't mean to sound cheesy, but it was almost like walking on a cloud compared to most flats like this (or at least like walking in slippers). I was looking for shoes that fit a young, trendy lifestyle that I could walk around all day in for work and still look professional - these were a great purchase for my needs. Great price point for the quality of prodcut, too. Yes, they're a rubbery sort of material, but they breathe, thanks to all the little holes! They honestly feel like a mix between sandals and house slippers.They are also VERY true to size, and I'm SO happy they offer half sizes because I usually have to settle for rounding up or down. These shoes did not disappoint.

I really loved these shoes right out of the box. The leather is incredibly soft and fits your foot like a glove with no possibility of future blisters. They are so adorable, but are a bit more flat than they appear in the pictures. I don't need lots of arch support necessarily, but my heel has to be elevated just a bit. The interior memory foam lining of the shoe is rather flat and I could feel my feet starting to hurt. If you don't need lots of arch support or elevated heel, these shoes would be perfect for you! They just didn't work out for me unfortunately. True to size.

Oh my goodness are these shoes nice! They feel so soft and buttery. I want them in another color. If you have wide feet, these might not be great for you. But they're not bad for me. And they fit ever so slightly longer but my 11 will still fit great. I haven't worn them out of the house yet, but they feel like they'll conform to my feet. They look and feel so great! I can't wait to wear them to work Monday!!I can't speak to the quality of the shoes yet though.***UPDATE***I have worn these for a couple weeks now and still love them! They seem to be holding up great.

This is actually my second pair. I wore the first pair out and loved them so much that I purchased a second pair. I have foot problems and these are one of the few pairs of shoes that I can wear that fits comfortably and that I can stand in for long hours and not be in pain. I have read some reviews where the shoe tends to widen the longer you wear. I agree with this, hence the four stars. The first pair widened ( I was working two jobs at the time - the second job I was on my feet nonstop) because I wore them out. With a second job of standing on your feet, these were the only shoes I could wear that my feet were not killing me by the end of the day. They are stylish and comfortable and I will buy them again (if I wear this pair out). I no longer work two jobs but I wear them to work and casual wear.
