  • The most gorgeous pair of shoes I have ever owned

    I have upwards of 25 pair of Fluevogs and about 100 pair of shoes altogether. That being said, I have never been so enthralled with a pair of shoes in my life. They fit well and look so incredibly elegant. I am a doctor and every one of my patients (male and female!) has commented on how wonderful they are. PLEASE make them in other (solid) colors!!

  • Love

    These are so cute. True to size I’m a 6. They are so pretty on. John makes the best shoes!

  • Adjectives galore for these shoes

    Elegant, dramatic, yet ladylike and sophisticated-- these are probably the fanciest shoes I've ever owned. The pink is a deep rose in person, not the hot pink suggested by the photo. Advice to size up is excellent-- I have Adanacs in 9.5 and Gracias in 10, but was glad I sized up to a 10.5 in these as the shoe is still on the narrow side. The leather lining is butter soft; but after a day of wear, my feet were starting to stick to the lining. Wearing these with hose would likely be more comfortable, but this isn't a great look with a slingback shoe. Note that--like many dressier Vogs, the toe box is shallow-- by the end of my work day, I was definitely feeling the edge of the vamp cutting across the top of my foot. The heel is a very walkable height, but I still would not recommend these shoes for a long (more than a city block) walk. The heels are amazing, and also quite solid and heavy-- in combination with the thermoplastic lift, they make a pronounced clacking sound on a bare floor or stairs-- an attention-getter for sure! I'd describe this as an event shoe-- great for weddings, baby showers, graduations, an upscale brunch, a garden party-- not so much for day-to-day wear.

  • My new favourite!

    They are so fun and super comfy.

    I came here today to buy a second pair for when I wear these out, alas, the green 11's are gone. I have purchased a pair of the blue Linearis as a consolation. They are also fabulously comfy and sparkly.

  • And yes to sizing up, for me at least. I usually wear a 9.5 and purchased a 10.

  • Always a Lady

    I wore these with a multicoloured fit and flare dress with bits of the same bright green in it, and unexpectedly received bushels of compliments. People I knew and didn’t know commented on them, men, women, young and old. I wore them all day and was in complete comfort. My feet are an elongated diamond shape. Pointy toes, narrow ankles, with an EE width at the ball of the foot. The back strap and pointy front fit beautifully. There are Fluevog shoes for every size and shape.

    Gosh, I feel wonderful in these, my 12th pair of Fluevogs.

    I have a plethora of foot problems. Some come and go, some are constant.

    I don’t even go anywhere else for shoes because of the quality, the attentive, fun and kind staff at the Edmonton store, and many other reasons. The price, you say? You get what you pay for.

    Sweet little heels, beautifully carved. Amazing colour.

    And patent leather.

    And the compliments….Fluevog shoes keep them rolling in. I feel like a million bucks in these fine Fictas and all of my other Fluevogs.

  • Sophisticated shoes

    These shoes are beautiful! I needed shoes for a wedding where there were gravel walkways and high heels were not recommended. Ficta in cream was perfect. I normally wear an 8 and got these in an 8 as well. The fit perfectly. Very comfortable but so fancy. They made me feel so elegant!

  • Beautiful elegant shoes

    These shoes are beautiful! I suggest sizing up 1/2 a size. I highly recommend them.

  • Firefly Ficta

    #vog_ficta I'm a street size 7.5. I have slender feet. I purchased an 8 in these. They are a perfect fit, very comfortable and easy to walk in. I love this deep pink colour.
