My First Impressions
"Pretty color combo" was my first thought as soon as I set my eyes on these pair. "Were they as comfortable as they look?"
I Tested It and Tried It On
My goodness they're so airy and light but yet also very substantial and well made. Shy of $95, these were the shoes I wanted. They didn't feel uncomfortable or tight like my expensive Chanel loafers. Yes, they are definitely a lot more comfortable than my Chanel loafers LOL. I feel that you can always dress it up in a few ways. I wore this with my black leggings and even paired it with my green nail polish. Sure, it's a gold shimmering color with hints of turquoise, but it doesn't stop me from being bold.
The fabric style is almost denim but softer than denim.
The size is right. Ariat got the sizing right! If I had to compare the sizing discrepancies against my Chanel, I would say Chanel makes me feel like I got big feet as I always have to buy a size bigger. However, Ariat got the sizing perfect for my feet. They are comfortable, I could last all day walking in these cruisers.
Pros and Cons
There are definitely more PROS than there are CONS. PROS: They are super comfortable. I love this specific color scheme. My whole ensemble today looked nice with this pair. I looked elegant and yet comfortable and showing my eccentric self while not boasting it. I truly love this fabric.
CONS: I would love to be able to have more variations of this same exact fabric pattern. I'd like to have a royal blue version. When I love a pair of shoes, I have a tendency of buying them in all colors. But they do have tons of different styles to chose from! Check it out!
The Final Score
I am a shoe fanatic since I could remember and I've owned all kinds of shoes, from high end Hermes to $2 dollar shoes from the flea market. For comfortability, I would rate this 5 stars out of 5 stars. This is by far one of my most comfortable shoes. The cushion padding can last me a whole day. And the soles are thick. For the color shoes and pattern and fabric, this is good fabric I have to say this is very high quality. You can find these on Ariat's website: ariat.com/Cruiser
