Reviews

Poor value for money

"No doubt the product is comfortable but the jute heel falls apart. I’ve had it repaired twice but it’s embarrassing to walk into a meeting a have a jute band fall behind you."

Farzana L. (2/5)

I absolutely love these shoes!

"I absolutely love these shoes! I’d love to see more styles in this heel height, not just new colors. Braided leather designs in silver, bronze, gold, gunmetal, or even a sparkly black would be amazing. It would also be great to have black versions with black soles or above mentioned with black soles that can be dressed up. These are so comfortable, and I’d love to wear them with a party dress and stay comfortable all night."

THE most comfortable shoes. I

"THE most comfortable shoes. I can wear them all day no problem. The arch support is perfect. I’ve finally found a brand that is good for my high arches. The 2 Velcro straps are a game changer. You can adjust to the width of your foot- just so simple but honestly makes such a difference"

Janelle M. (5/5)

Love these shoes. I recently

"Love these shoes. I recently had to return a different pair because they wore out during 1 month. I was very disappointed. I won't be wearing these shoes that much so I dont expect them to wear out like the other pair. But for how much you pay for this shoes, it would be nice if you could actually wear them for a while. . . I probably won't buy from Aetrex for a while. . . been disappointed lately in how long they actually last. . . ."

Love

"As you can see, these are hands-down my favorite shoes lol. I started having severe foot pain from a few different issues, including tailors bunion several years back. The podiatrist told me I could get surgery or wear orthotics & recommended this brand for me to try. I almost exclusively wear the Sydney’s as work shoes in warm weather now & I get compliments almost daily. I have wider feet and super high arches, typically a size 9, but sometimes 9. 5 and these fit perfectly. I have found that different styles in this brand fit differently, so definitely give it more than one try and use the measuring option that Aetrex puts for each style. The one complaint I have is not having accurate photos on the website. So, trying to help others out by posting some pics of the different colors. The new leopard print (there are 2, the one in the photo w the new denim is the current 2026 style) and red are two styles that clearly do not match. But obviously, I highly recommend these, so I hope this helps! (Ps the Maui & Vickie are my other favorites)"

Amanda B. (5/5)

Most comfortable Wedges Ever

"My sister in law introduced me to these because I needed mole skin on the back strap of a wedge sandal to keep it from slipping. Aetrex have Velcro at the ball of your foot across your toes and around your ankle. That makes the fit absolutely perfect plus they are extremely comfortable and support your arch. Love love these!"

Jenny G. (5/5)

Manufacturing defect

"I have been a loyal customer of this brand because of the comfort promised. However, twice in my recent purchases I’ve had a similar issue. The jute on the heel starts unwrapping and in the most recent purchase the heel separated from the sole. Stronger glue would help deal with all weather conditions."

Farzana L. (3/5)

I was skeptical that a

"I was skeptical that a high heel could be worn all day and not hurt your feet, but the 30 money back guarantee made me try it. After the first wear, I threw away the box because I was definitely keeping this shoe! I work on hard stone floors and am on my feet for 6 hours at a time. I finally don't feel like amputating my feet at the end of my shift. I'll definitely be buying more in the future."

Amber S. (5/5)

I love the shoes, but

"I love the shoes, but the color of the leather was different on each shoe. The left shoe is darker than the right."

Debra B. (3/5)

I have tried every brand

"I have tried every brand of shoe for comfort & style. This is the only brand that truly works for me checking both of those boxes. I no longer sacrifice my feet health or comfort for cheap shoes or what looks cute only wanting to burn the shoes after wearing them for a couple hours. Obsessed with the Aetrex brand wedges/ please keep making cute & functional shoes for women!!"
