Women's Alegria, Classic Clog

This brand was recommended by a nurse coworker and I can't rave enough about these. They are soooo comfortable and I love the style.

Sooooo comfortable. Wear them everywhere

I can’t say this enough, but my feet require special shoes! Alegria is it! I bought 3 pairs!! As a nurse, these shoes proved to be life savers for me. I owned a pair years ago and they finally wore out. I looked on Amazon and found them on sale so I bought 3 pairs for the price of almost 1,5 pairs. Great great shoes!! I wear them to work and church and everywhere! They are so comfy and provide the best arch support for a flat footer such as I!

First off I have to say I LOVE these shoes with a passion. I ended up buying 3 more pairs of Alegrias in different styles within a month because of how good my feet feel when I wear these. I have issues with my large toe joint on one foot (hallux limitus) and plantar fasciitis on the other foot. I had the fasciitis on the other foot in the past so I knew as soon as it started this time to get really good shoes. Wearing only Alegria shoes for the last 2 months has helped my condition to not get any worse. They aren't healing it, but they are keeping it from getting any worse. Any time I have tried to wear another style of shoe I instantly feel pain in my heel, but never when I wear the Alegrias.The sizing can be tricky. In my experience, I wear a solid 9 in most shoes, sometimes even a 9.5, but only if a shoe runs a little small. All 4 of my Alegrias (the Paloma, the Classic clog, the Belle, and the Kaitlyn) are sized 39. In the classic clog I have plenty of room, especially once they got worn in (i wear these all the time in the house because of my heel issue). The Paloma fits like a dream. The Kaitlyn has a slightly different insole so it feels smaller, but not too small as my toes aren't touching the end. The Belle almost felt too small at first, but after a day of wearing they broke in and now I don't notice my toes touching the end like they did the first day.Now for the solution to the squeak that some have complained about. The squeak originates in the sole of the shoe from the insole rubbing against the inside of the shoe itself. If you remove the insole and coat the bottom of it with a silicone lubricant like you can get at a hardware store or auto supply store, it will cease the squeak. All four of my pairs developed the squeak after a few days of wear. After spraying the bottom of the insoles 3 of them no longer squeak at all. The classic clogs still squeak, but I believe the issue with those is different. The squeak seems to originate on the top of the shoe where the leather strap rubs against the decorated cork top (they are the classic cork black pull up design). I don't know how long this fix lasts, but so far it's been a few weeks since I sprayed mine and they are still squeak free.

Unfortunately, the shoe is very narrow and created comfort issues. It was returned!

With my job I am on my feet literally 12 hours a shift. These shoes offer great support, prevent back pain by keeping me aligned and are pretty to look at. Have had several compliments on them.

I love my new slip on clogs! I am on my feet all day and had plenty of cushion and support. My last Alegria clogs were two years old and still look great.

I bought the Alegria classic clogs in the brilliant snake color. I was highly impressed when I got them! they are VERY cool and funky, are metallic looking and very unique. I was hoping the inserts would be enough for me to help with my foot pain but they were not. I don't mind this, I knew if they weren't right to help my pain levels in my feet I would just insert my custom orthodic. Most shoes that fit custom orthotics are UGLY but Alegria are not! And I love that they come in so many colors and styles.My issue is that the second day I wore them, I accidentally knocked into an empty plastic paint tray and the finish rubbed off!!! I emailed Alegria and got a pathetic, one line answer to my asking if it was painted on top of the suede. They said it is not, that it is stamped on. Really? I sent another email which was never answered so I called the following day. I was told someone would look into it and call me back, but I never heard from them. I called again and was told it was defective and they would tell me how to take care of exchanging the item. And again, no word from them. Instead of trying to deal with Alegria itself (I only wanted to know what the exact process of the "stamping" of the shoe was so I could determine if it was of good quality and hopefully I wouldn't not have the same issue with a replacement, not only could nobody answer me, they said they'd get back to me twice now and they haven't, on top of ignoring two of my emails now.) I am forced to return my item to Amazon.I wanted to forewarn anyone dealing with Alegria that their customer service is probably the poorest I've ever seen.I will be trying more Alegria shoes but instead will stick to the shiny, patent leather type or suede without this "stamping" process, what ever it is. I guess not even the employees understand this "stamping" process. To be fair, I did speak to a customer who was buying Alegria in a store and she said her patent leather type shoe looks as good as new two years later, she was only replacing the inserts.I have rated Alegria one star due to the customer service issues (which is huge) and I'm so disappointed that this lovely, thick soft cushion did not have enough arch support to help with my foot pain. And I was extremely disappointed to see the finish rub off when knocking into a piece of plastic. Certainly a defect or a serious quality issue.

Well made and comfortable. Glad I ordered them.

I have arthritis in my big toe(hallux rigidis), I require a shoe with a stiff sole , alegria shoes have a very solid stiff sole which prevents my toe from bending when I walk.

These shoes are so comfortable. I have owned several pairs over the years. I can walk all day in them.
