Beautiful & Comfortable!
These boots are truly beautiful and extremely comfortable since they are not heavy. The leather is nicely textured and soft which adds to the comfort. I ordered my normal size, and they fit perfectly. Although they're expensive, they do look expensive and well made. No chemical smell like so many leather items sold today! I was looking for something made in its country of origin and not using the chemicals and harsh dyes. These boots are perfect for me, and Zappos' one-day shipping upgrade was a delightful gift. All in all, I could not be happier!

I so wanted this shoe to work. It was exactly the style I wanted with the cushioning of the latex sole, but it was not nearly wide enough. It seems to be more of a double A width than a medium. I take a C/D width but can often get by with medium. Not this time. The length seemed spot on. Back it goes. Can't Arche make wider shoes?

Large, but -
This shoe does run large, but I inserted a good quality foam-type shoe liner which made them feel better and not slip on my foot, so I'm keeping them. The soles are thinner than on most Arche shoes, so the liner also makes them more comfortable for walking.

Comfy and cute -
A very cute little boot. Like most of my Arche purchases, comfortable right out of the box. The only minor problems - the covered heel means you have to be careful where you walk, and the zipper up the back can make fastening them a little tricky.

Arche Thaem -
I wanted to try a pair of Arche (even at the ridiculous price) because I'd heard good things about them. I can tell that they would be very comfortable, immediately. Unfortunately, I have to return them because the heel is too large and going down a half size would make them too tight in the rest of the foot. The toe is also very, very pointy- more than it looks in the picture, which means it does not accommodate orthotics. The design of the heel stack is a bit weird at first but is a great way to get a little height while keeping the comfort of a flat. They would look lovely on a smaller foot and if you do not need inserts they would be comfortable for walking all day and could be dressed up for evening. In other words, versatile for a vacation.

Sleek yet funky -
I've been looking for a low-heeled, non-matronly shoe to wear with skirts and this is it! When I tried it on in the store in NYC the saleswoman told me it was cut wider than other Arche styles and she was right--I wear a C width, which made other styles I tried a bit snug. This one felt comfy with plenty of room in the width. (I ordered it from (ever-wonderful) Zappos.com because the store didn't have black in my size.) It is very comfortable--great for walking--and the shape of the front cut-out, below the ankle-strap, is reminiscent of pumps from the '20s and '30s--very flattering to the foot. They are not at all matronly but cute and funky on. They aren't inexpensive either, but, considering the comfort and look, I'm thinking of them as a good investment. And Zappos was terrific, as always.

Great shoe for work and dressing up -
You can be "on your feet" in this shoe and feel comfortable all day wearing them. The first day wearing this shoe (black), I wore them to work and then straight on to a concert. Afterwards, we could not get a taxi. Had to walk about ten blocks in New York City to the hotel. In almost any other shoe, I would have expected a lot of discomfort and maybe blisters. Neither happened with this shoe. My only "complaint" is that if your foot is chubby, it will rub the top of the toe box a bit. The laces are nice to keep the shoe from slipping when you walk. I will probably buy them again in another color.

Great shoe. Comfortable, beautiful. I currently own 5 pairs of Arche shoes (boots and sandals). I have ALWAYS bought size 41. While this pair says 41 on the bottom, they felt and looked a bit small. So I held them up to all my other Arche shoes, and indeed, these are smaller than usual. Have to return them for this reason only.

Tres Uber Chic -
I never bought a pair of Arche shoes before, but these shoes were hard to resist because of the look and previous rave reviews. Besides being very, very comfortable, these shoes are Euro chic and classy. They will go very well with slacks and jeans. For me, I cannot see wearing them with dressy outfits. These shoes are great for walking the streets in Paris, London, New York, Chicago, San Francisco, and even Denver. You will look like you belong in Elle magazine. I usually wear a size 6. The 6 fits a bit large, but after inserting my arch supports, they are a good fit. The suede is of excellent quality, and the patent gives it a bit of pizzazz. I always spray my suede shoes with Scotch Guard to protect them. I've received many compliments on them. The rubber sole seems extremely sturdy, so I expect many long and comfortable walks in these shoes. Many kudos to Arche and Zappos for offering Cocco.

This is my first pair of Arche shoes, and Cocco is very stylish and comfortable. The shoe has excellent quality suede with a bit of patent leather for some class and pizzazz. They come up high around the ankle, but it is not uncomfortable. I usually wear a size 6. The 6 feels a tad larger than most shoes, however, when I put my arch supports in them, it was a perfect fit. They are very comfortable for all day walking, and you will truly look uber classy in them at the airport, on busy streets, in jeans, or nice slacks.

Best ballet flats ever - As a devoted fan of ballet flats I was totally bowled over by my pair of Arche Laius flats in a lovely crinkly silver that arrived today. They are truly the most comfortable, amazing ballet flat I have EVER worn. The cushiness of the insole is akin to walking on pillows, and this is one of the few ballet flats that doesn't slip in the heel and fits my foot like a glove. I have a feeling I'll be getting some more of these in other colors. As for sizing: definitely go up a size if you're a half size like me. I’m usually a US 6.5 but got these in the European 38 (US 7s) and they're perfect.

I bought this shoe to wear on a trip and was somewhat afraid that the elastic would cut in to my heels but no problem and got compliments as well. I have worn Arche before many times and these shoes are just wonderful!

The shoe is generally very comfortable; however, the metal ring rubs against my ankle bone. But since the strap is adjustable, I am able to move it to a more comfortable position. I love the low heel and 'cushy' feel when walking.

Gladiator Comfort!
The Gladiator look is not the most complimentary to our feet and legs; however, I was willing to give this one a try since Arche makes such a good shoe. I ordered a 40 (I wear a 9 1/2) which is my regular Arche size, but was puzzled when it fit well around the heel and ankle, but protruded a good inch or more at the top. I suppose if i had very long toes, this would be a great shoe, but these are average length toes. A smaller size would probably mean the heel falling off the back. Thank you to Zappos for any easy return process!

This shoe is typical of the quality of Arche shoes, however, this style was too big all over for my foot. I did not think a smaller size would work as they were not too long for me. I will have to return them, reluctantly, as I like them very much, as I do all of the Arche shoes I have already.

These shoes are wonderful: comfortable, hip, sexy, walkable. Yes, they are expensive (at least in my world), but they are well worth the price. The construction is top notch and they will last several seasons. One note: I generally wear a 39, but I had to order a 40 in these.

A Great Alternative to a Sandal -
This is the best shoe...a very cute flat but it is great for summer because it is so airy. It is a great alternative to a sandal, especially for city walking because your foot is protected. I have this shoe in blue and in pink as well as this black one. People always compliment me on them when I wear them...which is practically every day! I wish that they came in even more colors!

 |  | Zappos, I am writing to thank you for your extraordinary service over the years. With the ever increasing shoe options, it is a relief to count on one shoe provider "Zappos". It is often difficult to find my shoe size, which is often exasperated with my admitted pickiness, but Zappos rises to the occasion. Over the years I have become so impressed with Zappos, I recommend the site to family, friends, and customers. Yes, customers, in the spirit of Miracle on 34th street, if we don't have it, we will tell you who does. The who is often Zappos. Keep up the good work. |  | ~ , October 30 2008
