adidas Women's Barreda Mary Jane

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I'll start off my saying that I made the mistake of wearing these shoes for the first time on a walking tour on a cruise excursion. I figured they're like tennis shoes, they'll be comfortable enough... nope. I wore them without socks (which I believe they are meant to be worn that way). There is an area at heal that has a type of plastic that is probably supposed to keep your foot from moving around. Unfortunately, this particular area created painful blisters that lasted most of my trip. I had even sized down 1/2 size so my foot wouldn't move around a lot. Just too bad because they are a cute design. Might still try to wear with socks.

Very happy with this purchase. Have worn several times now and received compliments each time. My only issue is the sizing, they are wide on me and as a result gape a bit. Aside from that, they are a very comfy shoe and a fun for summer!

(This review was collected as part of a promotion.) Like: The style is cute, more flattering and interesting than a basic mary jane. The sole is non slip and durable unlike some similar ballet or slimline styles. I like that the red option is almost as wearable as a neutral. Dislike: The suede part of the shoe is less vibrant than the fabric and elastic. The overall shape is more uniform oblong than shaped in the toe and arch as I had expected from the pictures. Fits a bit big but would not size down. Would look best on an average to avg wide foot to give the shoe more shape.

Perfect, comfortable and fashionable. They look very delicate

By far so very comfortable I slipped them on and they look good in almost everything is perfect for this spring weather. My coworkers are now going to get a couple pairs. The only issue I have is I bought this same size in red and for some reason, the red does not fit. But this white one is the most comfortable. And the reviews also say go a half size down, listen to it. My normal size is a 10 and I got a 9 1/2 and it’s a dream.

I love the color and style of this shoe. The red is everything and perfect for Spring and Summer fun! This shoe is so trendy and versatile. I recommend you wear it with jeans, a skirt, shorts or a t- shirt dress. I will likely return them tho because one shoe is a bit too big and my foot keeps slipping, so thank goodness for the X strap. I will purchase again when my size becomes available again.

Several people have mentioned that they run big. I would agree they run wide, but not long. I ended up with a 9, I usually wear 8 1/2 in Adidas. I put an extra insole and heel pad in back. I’ve worn them to work (school )twice and they were super comfortable. Sneakers feel too hot in the summer, I’m hoping these will allow for enough ventilation, but also be great for sightseeing.

I bought these shoes because I love the Mary Jane look. I sized down half a size to a 6.5 (I am a 7) and they were a perfect fit. I am glad I listened to the reviews saying to "size down". The toe runs long so you will still have a lot of room when you go down half a size. The shoe itself is comfortable, non-slip, lightweight, easy to walk in (flexible). Highly recommend.
