Ask: Response
[Orange]
Inspirée d'une forme de sabot de l'époque Fox & Fluevog, Response est un sabot de bois fait à la main parfait pour le soleil et le temps chaud. C'est une version mise à jour d'un classique Fluevog avec sa courroie en T ajustable, son long bout, ses rebords peinturés à la main et ses rivets et semences en laiton. La semelle et le talon de bois sont faits de pin chilien et sont laminés à la verticale afin d'empêcher toute rupture ou fragmentation. La chaussure Response est faite à la main dans une manufacture mexicaine qui se spécialise dans les sabots de bois depuis plus de vingt ans. Avec le caoutchouc ajouté à la semelle pour l'adhérence et le cuir souple de la place, produit dans une petite série limitée, voici la réponse que vous attendiez. "Ask and you shall receive." « Demandez et vous recevrez. »

Best shoes ever; the 4 times I wore them
I received these shoes mid-June and loved them immediately. Unfortunately, the rubber sole on the bottom of the heel started peeling off the third time I wore them. The fourth time I wore them the rubber had completely crumbled off half way through the night causing me to limp through the rest of the night. I emailed the store and they told me to bring them to a shoe repair and they would reimburse me for the cost of fixing them. Living in a remote community I decided to not fork out the $80 to ship them out and back to a shoe repair for repairs that I'm not even sure they can do as limping around in them for a couple hours after the rubber crumbled off caused the wood to chip and splinter. Not to mention I might end up in the same situtation a month later with the other shoe. Huge disappointment. The shoes are beautiful and soooooo comfortable. I own several pairs of Fluevogs and have never had a problem with quality before or after this pair.

I want to apprentice with John!
Love these shoes. Seeing how they were handmade inspired me to buy them and check out shoe design programs. Funny thing is that I used to be a lawyer right above John Fluevog's Vancouver store. I still remember my first pair that I bought - black patent mules with a fluorescent grey stripe and matching purse. Wore them forever....
:-D

So happy!
I love these sandals! They remind me of a pair I had in the 90s that I lived in until I wore through them. So comfy ,-) Sweet memories brought back to life with an even sharper look...

I finally caved in and bought these beautiful clogs.
They are wild! At first the rocking front was a bit weird but now it seems natural. BUT i just cannot walk DOWN stairs in them - feel like i will fall for sure.
My most common comment 'I like your sandals but i would never wear that colour.'
But its the colour i love! and they make me feel sooooo tall and beautiful.
Art for my feet!
I have admired Fluevogs for a few years now but the price has kept me from purchasing until now (tax refund treat!). These are lovely. I like the colour (yellow)--it's like sunshine on my tootsies. Also as a non-heel-wearer, these are pretty darn comfy. The weather hasn't cooperated for me to wear them out yet, but they will make an appearance soon. While my family finds them a bit too "unique," I am nothing if not atypical.
As for the quality, the fit is great. I had some issues with the first pair I was sent (the leather around the front studs was loose) and was sent another ASAP (and refunded for my return shipping--great customer service from Toronto). While there was a slight ding in the wooden sole of my new pair, it is really nothing and likely occurred during shipping. The style is a bit "rustic" so minor imperfections are alright. Will I buy from Fluevog again? Very likely. But not for awhile, as they are a bit pricey and I must have restraint (you know, to pay for things like food, bills, and school).

The perfect neutral summer sandal
I'm a little embarrassed to admit that these are my sixth pair of 'Vogs since discovering them a year ago, but I justify the purchase as I "required" a summer sandal. I was nervous about the wooden clog-aspect of the sole, but was taken by the adorable look of this shoe (and its great price!), and couldn't help myself.
I chose the neutral bright yellow as my poison, and sized up from my usual 6-1/2 to a 7 (I have a narrow heel, high arch and a wide foot), after the usual helpful assistance from the boys at the LA store. They fit like a dream! The platform is easy to walk in, and yes, they are a bit loud. But the rounded nature of the wood sole makes them feel like rocking horse shoes, and gives you amazing stability. I can chase after my children and feel like Lolita at the same time.
I get compliments on these every time I wear them--and who can't use a few extra inches in height? Wonderful!!

Can't walk...
I bought these shoes last year after I fell in love with the look of them. They're so hip.However, I was able to wear them only two times so far. One day I wore them to work.Unfortunately, I was able to walk up the stairs but couldn't come down because not only they were making huge noise but also they made me shaky. I should have bought smaller size... Too bad it didn't work out for me since I really do love them. At least they're beautiful to look at in my closet...

Great Clog - Love them!
I bought this clog sandal shoe, in black, last year 2010. They look great and are very comfortable. Immediately all fluevog shoes that I own, I never have to break in. Yes, once owning a fluevog shoe, nothing else compares. Cannot wait until it gets a little warmer so I can enjoy another spring/summer in these excellent quality shoes. I get positive comments on them everytime I wear them. Love fluevog shoes!

Perfectly perfect
After watching the video on the making of the orange fluevogs I bought in sanfran....I now love them even more! Think I will have to buy the black this year. I am truly addicted to fluevogs shoes, any others aren't even worth looking at or trying on!
