Where the Customer is the Critic
The Internet has provided consumers with an evolved approach towards shopping. You no longer have to rely entirely on the opinions of family and friends when choosing the right product. Shoe Critic provides a growing database of customer experiences, allowing people to rate and review different brands of shoes based on three important characteristics. These reviews are then moderated for quality, and immediately shared with the public.
What we're working on
Shoe Critic is currently developing a registration system where consumers can register to earn points for submitting detailed, quality reviews on the shoes they have worn. Prizes will be given out monthly to those users who earned the most points.

Model: Miranda low boot
Reviewer: Fran Carreiro

Review: Bought the Miranda boot for an early March trip to NYC. I thought it a good choice because of pillowtop inside, low heel and good looks. Came home with blisters on toes and abrasions around both legs above ankle where boot tops rubbed as I walked. (p.s. I have thin legs and also own 110 pairs of shoes). Trouser socks(both nylon and cotton)kept sliding into boot beyond heel making for an uncomfortable/painful two days.

Review: Great shoes, but some problem with buckles being too fragile and also straps can be too thin and easy to wear out on shoes such as sandals or strapped heels. Also prefer if this seller sold 1/2 sizes along with whole sizes. Many Beautifeel shoes I have to add additional insoles to make them tighter from being too loose- this is more common with lower heels and flats that tend to run on the large size. I am fine in the high heels (2.75 inches) because my feet like the extra space for comfort. Due to this issue, I rarely get Beautifeel shoes that are less than 2.75 inches and stay away from lower heels now. I will say that the styles and choices as well as the looks are pretty nice and there is a large variety to pick from. They are elegant and comfortable and the soles do not wear out as much as other shoes being rubber. I actually now prefer to wear only Beautifeels for higher heeled shoes and NAOT for lower heels- a more all puropose shoe brand- both are Israeli companies. Overall, my feet are very happy and I am pleased to take care of them by wearing Beautifeel shoes.

Review: These were nice looking but not at all comfortable. You would expect a shoe that costs $335.00 to be comfortable!!!! Very disappointed..I returned them, awful shoe.

Review: Inferior Quality Materials I recently bought a pair of Rockport dress shoes and almost immediately the leather started to peel away, revealing that they use inferior grade leather. The shoes are now useless to me as dress shoes and I will give them to Goodwill. Since they do not offer a warranty (which is understandable considering the poor quality) I will never buy another pair of shoes from them again.

Review: These shoes were very comfortable, however on wet surfaces and snow the soles were a bit slippery. I was very disappointed with the overall design because within a month of wearing the shoes, the material on the top of the shoe started peeling off. They were replaced by the company and within a month the samething happened again. Only this time the sole started separating from the toe. They were sent back to the company and Mephisto refused to replace them. A great shoe if you don't plan to walk in them.

Review: The shoe fits true to size and width and offers excellent arch support. The interesting cut outs give it more expensive look. The only disappointment is the color – specifically the green. It is not deep even grass green, it is freckled with beige so in person it appears a bit lighter than on the online photos.

Review: True vintage look, good fit, true to size, but if your feet are on the narrow side, you may find it a bit too wide. The arch support is moderate, the back of the heel measures 3”, there is a bit of padding on the ball of the foot to insure comfort for longer wear.

Review: I originally bought a pair of ASICS, but had to return them because I really needed a Wide. They didn’t have the Wide, so I just returned them. I was shopping at Kohl’s and decided to check out their running shoes. I found these and they are sooooo comfortable! I tried them out when I got home and they performed well. I’m definitely glad I gave AVIA a try because they were more affordable and feel just as good, if not more comfortable. I walk/run very hard on my heels and this feels like I’m running on a cloud! I highly recommend these shoes!

Review: I love my Dansko shoes so much for work; I'm a nurse that I hate to even part with them for 3 days of work while I order a new pair. The pair I have are defective and squeek so they need to be sent back to the retailer while I wait for my replacement pair. I will miss them so much I am just thinking of buying a second pair just so I don't have to work without them while I wait and to give myself a 2nd pair for variety.

Review: While these shoes are extremely comfortable and stylish I am finding they are not worth the price. The last 3 pairs I bought have fallen apart within 10 months. However Cole Haan only stands behind their products for 6 months after that there is a $83 charge when the shoe falls to pieces to have it fixed. When I pay $500 for pair of boots or $300 for a pair of shoes I expect them to last longer than 10 months.
