Mollie Johnson
[Black & Grey]
In the late 1870's shortly after the Gold Rush, teenage prostitute Mollie Johnson arrived in Deadwood. Known as "the Queen of the Blonds," Mollie became the madam to a gaggle of "painted ladies" (one of whom was Ida Clark). In 1878, Mollie got married for the second time in her life to minstrel and comedian Lew Spencer, who was arrested shortly afterwards for shooting his other wife. Legend has it that Mollie disappeared not too soon after with a bag of stolen gold. Using soft, dusty Italian leathers with teardrop cut-out detailing, on a 2.5" Fellowship-hi heel and tunite Bellevue sole, this lace-up Mary Jane is surely looking out for you.

Just received these shoes in the mail, after much anticipation. Unfortunately, I am very disappointed in the colour. I know that photography + computer screens can lead to inconsistent results, but I was expecting the centre band to be grey, NOT dark brown. Now I will be out shipping from my own pocket to return a pair of shoes that I never would have ordered in the first place, had I known. I love Fluevogs from the bottom of my heart (this is pair #6), which makes the disappointment that much worse. :( Live and learn.

Best work shoes EVER!!
I have the olive/black suede version. They are among the most comfortable shoes I have ever owned, and I have worn pretty much everything in every price range. More comfy even than my Malibrans, though I still like those too. My foot is wide in front, narrow in back; the tie-in keeps me securely in my shoes. They are extremely flattering on the foot, with the low cut toe box. They have enough style to keep me happy, but are not so wild that I feel self-conscious in a conservative office. And if I look great and feel great, then I can do great work!

I bought 2 pairs of Bellevues in 1 day and I just love them, sorry I waited so long! On the computer this pair in olive looked brown, but in person they are a beautiful green and now I want them in more colors, too. Very comfortable for all-day wear at work, I thought I'd need my usual 7.5 but the 8 fit a bit better.

Lost my fluginity
First time I heard about Fluvog Shoes was yesterday evening when my friend showed me one of her pairs. We went down to the Toronto store at the opening today and after a few tries finally was successful fitting my finicky feet with comfortable shoes, then I had a delema of choosing between models. At the moment I am resting my feet but have on these super comfortable shoes.
Best of all, they have a store in my hometown also. Can't wait to wear them to work.

Amazing!
I just bought these in the pale grey/navy combo at the Wicker Park (Chicago) store. I'd seen them on the website and thought they were pretty,but in person I noticed that the pale grey is actually a delicate grey/blue; a color which I adore! So... I had to have them. Thank goodness I had a bit of a "shoe budget!" I love the vintage asthetic and curved heel of this shoe family. These, (as well as the black Pearl Harts I got online few months ago) will serve as 'everyday' work heels, as they are quite comfortable. Great shoes!

OMG
had I guessed from the pictures that these shoes were so so beautiful (and fit my narrow long foot perfectly) I would have gotten them in dark grey/navy before they ran out of my size X-) -- i have them in black/grey and my plan was to keep them "nice" for when I need black heels (funerals, job interviews, etc.) -- it's going to be hard not to wear them for fun -- i know everyone is making ridiculous requests for color combos - so here's mine: forest green! with something?! cadmium yellow? grass green? I dunno ?:-) just don't let this style disappear (they're way more stylish than the pearl harts IMO)

Fabulous!
I knew I needed to get a fabulous pair of shoes for a wedding this summer; it was really hard to narrow down which Fluevogs I wanted. After much soul-searching, and trying on numerous styles, I finally decided on the Mollie Johnson in black. I haven't worn heels in almost 15 years, and I was able to wear these for hours on end without any problems. They're ridiculously comfortable, and absolutely gorgeous! These shoes will get you compliments - and threats of shoe-nappings! The perfect choice for my second pair of Vogs. Now, how do I decide on my next pair?

Beautiful shoes
I already own these in the brown/pink combo (which I love) but I couldn't resist getting them in black as well.The brown/pink shoes are more casual looking whereas the black/gray are more elegant. Definitely my favorite style in Fluevog and I'm so glad to own both colors. As for sizing, I suggest getting regular fluevog size or a half size smaller (for me they fit equally well) The black come with black laces as pictured and bonus light blue laces. Brown shoes come with brown laces and bonus dark purple laces. Pictures don't do these shoes justice. Extremely comfortable too!
