Elif
[Noir & ivoire]
C'est dans le cadre du programme Chaussure Source Libre de John que Elif, originaire de Vancouver, a conçu cette chaussure. (Quoi? Vous ne connaissez pas ce programme, mais cliquez sur la source libre Fluevog). Dotée du classique Fluevog qu'est le talon Mini, cette chaussure inspirée du style Charles IX, a une large courroie de cuir aniline tanné au végétal qui saura bien s'ajuster à toutes les formes de pieds. Le concept de Elif a attiré l'attention de John qui a décidé d'en faire un design « choisi » du programme CSL.

I love these shoesies!
My beautiful olive Elifs arrived this morning from the Quebec City store and I am so very pleased with them. I ordered a half size larger than I usually wear in everyone else's shoes based on my really high instep, advice from the Fluevogologist at the Granville store and a pair of Minis I already own. They are a little roomie in length but otherwise absolutely perfect! The leather is soft, the straps are comfortable and they look AMAZING!

I LOVE these shoes. Just got them for Christmas and they are my new favourites. So comfy and stylish. :-D

Call me Lovey Loverson
No where near a Fluevog store, I waited to buy these shoes for over a year. I called a West Coast store to talk about fit and I ordered them.
They fit like a dream - I haven't worn heels in years and these are so comfortable.
I especially love the easy on-easy off wearability of them, and it does not make for a sloppy fit.
I'm shopping my next pair already and I have had these and worn them for two days!
]:o)

Sooooo disappointed...
X-) ordered these online and expressed my concern about fit based on another size 11 shoe I had previously tried on that was also stubby-toed, that was too small for me. Anyway, though I now own three other fluevogs in size 11, these are too small. I have a long narrow foot and the store staff seemed not to pay attention to my concern. Very frustrating since I just paid $32 to have them shipped here and will pay the same to ship them back. An expensive experiment. I think the green Elifs are the most gorgeous shoe I've very put my foot into. I am devastated. (:`( my experience is that these shoes fit small (in length).

:-) I love love love!!! My second pair of Fluevogs! I got these in black and cream, and they are so beautiful!
I usually take size 8.5. I read in the reviews that these run a bit big. And when I ordered, there were only size 8s available in the black, so I went with that. I am so glad I did. They fit perfectly. Bottom line: probably best to go 1/2 size smaller.

Favorite Fluevogs!
Okay maybe second fav's, could also be a tie which is saying alot since I have alot of shoes. So why these, partly because when I got them my dedicated spouse couldn't get them in size 6.5 - he was buying them as a congratulatory gift and when he couldn't get them online, he called every store listed on the website until someone somewhere said she could check her computer for other stores stock. :-} Thank heavens for great staff at Fluevog. Anyway, hubby went off to work with narry a word and I got these stunners in the mail, oh happy day. They never fail to get commented upon & even the president of my workplace stopped me in the hall to say - hey where'd you get those shoes? Women comment often, but you know you've got killer footwear when the men are prompted to actually look at your feet instead of - oh never mind. They are comfy like slippers, I can run in them if needed without fear, stairs are done at the same pace as in a pair of runners. Awesome home run shoes!

More Perfect Minis
Minis... I love them all. This is my 4th member of the Mini family and is the best fit I've had yet... I have always found the 6 a fraction small and the 6.5 too big, but these in a 6 are sheer perfection. The ankle strap keeps the foot firmly back in the shoe, as well as curving sexily around the foot, and the green/gray/purple colour scheme is simply fabulous. Probably now the most comfortable shoes I own and they look amazing too!

Mini Elif - Olive, Gray, Purple
OK - so I love the Mini's! The first time I wore these shoes I was traipsing through the Seattle airport and a table of 4 women tracked me (stalked...truer to what they did) down to ask about these shoes. They're comfortable, great for those on your feet, need good shoes days. Again - the Seattle folks rock in their ability to help with sizes!

Best. Shoes. Evar.
I vacillated for months on whether or not to get these shoes. I'm a SAHM, I don't do super-awesome stuff anymore so I wondered if it would be worth it. WHY DID I WAIT SO LONG? I haven't worn high heels since before my son was born 5 years ago, but I wore these all day without any problems! Why didn't I know about Vogs back when I had to wear suits and still schlep servers all over a giant hospital campus?
Bottom line: you will NOT be disappointed with these shoes. BUY THEM NOW!

DO NOT get these shoes if you do not like compliments and stares!! I didn't get them last year and my size sold out, so I was beyond happy when it was restocked. I go the green/grey/purple ones in a size 7 like other minis I have. I still have to use gel inserts as my feet are very narrow. Love the curvy strap across the foot and the colour is gorgeous. I'd love another colour combo, maybe the black and white ones. Awesome shoes and awesome service from the Vancouver store.
