I was excieted to find an attractive pair of slip on shoes that I could wear next summer.
I recieved these shoes yesterday, I tried them on and walked around on the carpet, the tung of the shoes cut into my arch, as I walked around my foot would slip up on the heel which was terrible.
These are very uncomfortable shoes.
These are not for me I am sending them back.
I love HSN and their products and service, but I don't know that I would try this brand of shoe again.

I love the flexible, ribbed rubber sole--so perfect for a 2 story house with hardwood floors that tend to be slick, especially the stairs. I already took a tumble down the stairs and broke a rib wearing slick-soled shoes, so now I will not be without my A.J. Valenci shoes. They look so on-trend and I love the easy-on...easy off. I've ordered the second pair of this shoe and have ordered several similar ones in the past. Love A.J. Valenci.

I wasn't sure because of how light they were but I wore them instead of heals to a funeral and I thought I was barefoot and they looked just as nice as a pair of heels I will buy more of A J Valenci

Not true to size was at least a 1/2 size smaller if not a whole size so was hard to tell if would have been comfortable due to the difference in size. I sent back for a refund especially with the cost of shipping wasn't worth it to try to get right size. I feel if sending for an exchange there should be no shipping charge it would help keep customers coming back!

These wear well and are comfortable. The size ran true for me. I think the sale price I got them at appropriate for the quality of the item.

Should have read reviews prior to ordering or would not have had to return. These definitely do run small. Typically wear 8 1/2 -9 and my heel was hanging over the end of the 8 1/2. By time I returned, desired color was gone. Nice quality for the price........did order the matching handbag and it is lovely.

I love their mules, I have four different styles, and was looking forward to receiving these. I wish they would get consistent with the sizing. Hateful to have to send, and resend trying to get the correct size. .....Please try to size better.
Sincerely

I ordered the black in my usual 8 wide and straight out of the box thought they looked cheap. The insert in the shoe is styrofoam, the padding is thin, and the "leather" has raw, unfinished edges. Also, the metal hardware isn't attached well and looks tacky. The quality is terrible. And ladies - they DO run small! I have two other pairs of AJ Valenci size 8 shoes that fit perfectly, and these are about a half-size too small. If you're going to order them, definitely order a size up.

These shoes are very comfortable..you really can wear them all day long. I did not have any issues with the shoe size but then again I have a small (non-wide) foot. The only thing I thought can be improved was the gold embelishment piece on the shoe. Looks a bit cheap. Overall, a good shoe for the price.

tHESE SHOES DO RUN SMALL. i HAVE MANY PAIRS OF A.J. VALENCI SHOES AND ALWAYS WEAR A 9 1/2. THE 9.5 IN THIS SHOE IS TOO SMALL. i THINK THEY RUN AT LEAST 1/2 SZ TOO SMALL. tHE SHOES THEMSELF ARE VERY CUTE AND A GREAT LOOKING STYLE. VERY SAD THAT BY THE TIME i GOT MY 3 PAIRS, ALL THE SZ 10'S ARE SOLD OUT. PLEASE USE ONE SIZE STANDARD WITH ALL THE SHOES, SO WE DON'T HAVE TO WASTE TIME AND MONEY ORDERING AND RETURNING.

I always wear a 9 but these were a tiny bit too small. They were comfortable though. Also, when receiving them in person, they did not look as good as they did on TV. I can't put my finger on it but it seems they are cheaply made. The inside sock is just halfway glued down and you can see the white foam cushion underneath. I also did not like the way it was "gathered" in the toe area.

The sizing was no issue for me, except that I ordered a half size up (based on customer reviews) and didn’t need to, lol. So now I have a VERY COMFORTABLE shoe that’s a little bit large but REALLY CUTE with NO BREAK-IN needed and feels AS COMFY AS SLIPPERS. I look forward to wearing them for my trip to N.Y. No hassle to remove at TSA and kick off in flight. HAPPY CAMPER, HERE! :D

I just love this style shoe. I have several pairs like these and I have always been an 8- 8 1/2. These do run small. Why is it that the same brand & style runs differently??? Please keep sizing consistent so we customers don't have to keep paying to exchange. Love this style but gave 3 stars b/c of sizing issue.

I just don't get their sizing....love the shoe by the way, the color was right on and love the comfort and style....just what I was looking for, I'm a true 6 1/2 with AJ shoes...I'm wearing a pair I bought last year size 6 1/2 ...light blue w/ flowers ..love em....the ones I rec'd today are a size 6 but read 6 1/2.....unfortunately they are going back....spoke with cust service, very understanding.. I'm doing an even exchange for a size 7W... I can't wait for the exchanged pair to arrive.
