Malibran

I had a pair and I loved them. They were my spring and summer shoe. I'm not embarrassed to admit I cried when I wore them out.

These have been my all time favorite shoes. I’ve owned them for several years and I am ready for another pair.

I had a pair of 1st edition Malibran Black with the White backstitch. A total success! I go so many compliments. The backstitch on a different colour reallty adds a great punch. I used them at the office they are the ultimate super confort. Obviously, they are too worn out. Time to get a second pair, but In my opinion, the 2nd edition of Malibran Black with the Black backstitch (black on black) does not has the same punch effect. Hope one day they will be re-edited black with white.

I would love to get this ones. I had them in black and white. A huge success! Love them but they are worn out. I have about 7 pairs of Fluevog in my collection. The reason I did not jump to get this ones is the quality finish. A close look, there is a white kind of leather underneath or at the back of the backstitch that give is a 'not well finish, cheap' look. The patten leather looks kind of too thin, wrinkles show around the leather used. Sorry to be so opinionated. I stirred at them and my heart goes. Thank you for this chance

I’m in love with my Malibran shoes. I’m true 6W, I took the chance on ordering half a size up. To my surprised the shoes are wide enough for my wide feet!!! I’ve could’ve gotten getting size 6 since the shoes are a bit long. Its a keeper.

I had been looking at these for a while thinking there was no way my feet would like them. Lo and behold, I tried them on and it was like they were made for me. I have wide feet and long toes too, so my feet can be fussy. I’m usually a 9.5 or 10 depending on the shoe and I felt like dancing out of the store with these in a 10. I need them in a full rainbow of colors to make my feet happy every day.

I love the Operetta and Soprano family, as my fussy feet need coddling. My Stefanis and my Cavalieris are both a perfect 6.5, but these were a bit narrow across the forefoot and were rubbing. Kristen in Dallas graciously worked with me on sizing, and after a thin metatarsal pad and my arch supports, the 7 are a hair long but otherwise fit perfectly. The straps keep them nice and secure. I love the look of these heels, and the first day I wore them for 6 hours on my feet with zero discomfort. So glad I finally have my own Malibrans! Now I need more colors.

The Malibran in wine is the shoe that they will one day bury me in - I just love them and feel like they were built just for me every time I put them on. Usually I wear a 9, although some Vog styles I need a 9.5, and these fit perfectly in 9.

I have these shoes in both colours and everything everyone else says is true: I can walk to work in them and work on my feet all day and walk home and my feet feel good. Everyone compliments them or my outfit when I wear them. I wear them with bare feet in summer and stockings in winter.

I bought these and another pair of fluevogs at the same time as my first purchase. I got them in the red colour. I have to disagree with the shoe expert's take on them for fit: I am a wide hoofed gal and I didn't need to get them stretched at all, so I feel they fit a bit wide since the toe box is so forgiving. The only thing about them that I had an issue with is that I found the stitching on the inside along the top scratchy to wear with bare feet. Solved easily with sockies and I was a happy girl. The heel is nice and low, so I can wear them all day at work - and I walk a LOT at work. Love these and would even consider purchasing in a second colour.

I am normally I'm 11/11.5 or 42/43 . The size 12 in these don't fit in length. Very bummed. Fix your lasts! I lived in Sweden growing up and a 41 has always been a size US 10.

Please bring back the black and white Malibrans. Mine are way run out which I would like to replace plus I go so many compliments. Love them so much. Also, I notice there were Cherry and White colour Malibrans, Peach Malibrans, and White and Orange Malibrans, these colors were never available in Montreal. Why?

I bought these shoes for a black tie wedding, and have never felt more elegant. I was at the wedding from 6 pm and continued dancing at the after hours event until 4 am. I was the only women still wearing shoes, and my feet were so comfortable. That was my first even wearing them, no blisters. I have also walked 10 km home from the opera in them, and they still look perfect. I have had very painful foot issues in the past, and have been treated for neuromas and wear orthics as well, so my feet are not exactly easy to please. Best shoes ever!

They are so cute, but what you don’t know - yet - is they are also unbelievable comfortable! Dancing check. Walking checking. Rubber soles with wide heel you’re all good. The wine colour is perfect. Great buy!

I bought my first pair of Malibrans in 2009 and just bought my 7th color last week--the utterly fabulous navy. I also have Enthusiast in blue/pink/orange and worried they'd seem too much alike, but the Malibran navy is darker and the pink stitching really pops. I'd been dithering over a few other styles and this shoe immediately became a must-have-right-this-very-minute one, no second-guessing. My smaller Fluevog size of 7.5 is still just right.

Super cute and even more comfortable. My only quibble is that I wish they came in red (not wine), because I'd get a second pair. Love!

I'm so glad to see these tagged as best sellers, Operettas are my favorite! The wide toe box and straps are perfect for my long, slightly narrow at the heal but wide in the toe, feet. These are my go-to work shoes, they are at the shoe hospital getting new heal tabs and fresh polish and I can't wait to get them back on my feet! Everyone should have a pair or three! *Hoping you bring back my first vog-loves...operettas with flower stitching on the toe and a single strap - still wearing them 10 years later but in need of replacing! P.S. please open a store in Austin!

My Vogs are the only shoes other than sandals I can comfortably wear without socks. So without really giving it a thought, the first time I put these on was barefoot out for a night in Vegas. They did not let me down! Hours later, my feet survived pain and blister free. I have a slightly wide foot along with fairly high instep and have found paying more for good fitting shoes to be 100% worth it; these absolutely fit the bill. Any concern about the straps cutting into the top of my foot were not an issue - the elastic on the one side works great and I don't even have them on the loosest setting for the buckle. I'm a pretty consistent size 7.5 across brands and in this shoe as well. Please bring back the yellow! Those are amazing...

I ordered these online as our nearest store is 7 hours away. They fit perfectly - I'm usually a 9 and these were perfect in a 9. Purchased them for my wedding last week and my sweetheart was thrilled with the soles, as were the guests we showed. Very comfortable and made me feel beautiful. Looking forward to wearing them everywhere!

I bought these in both the black and the purple. I've bought about 40 pairs of vogs over the last year, and I think these are my new faves, they're the cutest shoes ever, and they make my feet look so small. Thanks to Jessica at the Queen St W store for always knowing what size to ship me, I'll keep vogging my way into the future! Jessica, you ROCK!

These are my 3rd pair of fluevogs and I am now 3 for 3. I ordered my usual 6.5 and they are perfect. Super comfortable and I love the color. As my fluevologist directed, I shall wear these with grace! I will not however that people with narrow feet may find them a bit wide.

These shoes caught my eye while I was visiting the Fluevog store in Vancouver. I'd gone in to try on a different pair that ended up not fitting my feet well. I slipped these on and knew I 'd found the right shoes immediately. So comfortable, and I get complimented on them wherever I go.

I adored these and bought them on layaway but we had talked about different sizes and I thought I had gotten the 8 but ended up with an 8.5 I have tried to wear them with pads inside but they are just too big! Anyone want to trade for an 8??

These are my all-time favorite shoes. Am I going away for a weekend and am only bringing a carry-on? I wear these since I know I can wear them all day without my feet killing me at the end. I can sprint to the bus. They're adorable and comfortable and I talk them up every chance I get. I have them in wine and consider them to be a neutral that I can wear with much of my wardrobe. Please please please make more... but make them slightly different so that I don't end up with identical shoes in different colors. Things I love: the soft leather, the rubber sole, the heel and the toe box. Thanks so much!

I purchased the Malibran in turquoise and I am in love. They are very comfortable and the colour is gorgeous. As other commenters have noted, the colour is more of a jade green in person than turquoise blue. That was fine by me as I was looking for a turquoise shade with green rather than blue undertones. Because I have long toes I ordered a 6.5 rather than my regular shoe size (6).

I read the reviews carefully. In regular shoes, I am an 11 and in Fluevogs have bought many many pairs ranging in size from 10.5 - 11.5. Because I have longer toes (eeek!) and based on reviews, I elected to get a size 12. Was worried they would be too big, but they are PERFECTION! They are hands down my favourite pair of shoes and whenever I am complemented on them I size up my possible kindred spirit and their stock goes up. Yay to interesting shoes! Hell ya!

I snatched up a pair in the turquoise as soon as they went on sale. Color wise, these are more green than blue. I would say they are more of a Jade Green. (Just a FYI in case you are like me and have already started planning outfits around them before they arrive, lol.) I already own these in the wine color and they are one of my most worn pairs of shoes. As far as size goes I bought a size 7 which was perfect. I am a 6 1/2-7 in the mini shoes (size 8 in the boots) and have very, very wide feet. These fit like they were custom made for me. They were comfortable enough to walk miles in right out of the box with no break in needed. You really can't go wrong with these shoes.

What marvels hid in the famed blue box: Turquoise Operata Malibran in tissue paper sealed by a red heart, candies, shoelaces and even a large,blue pencil! The shoes fit like a dream. I am happy. Thank you Fluevog.

I have the black patent leather iteration of this gorgeous shoe. When the pair first arrived, they were lovely--from the rich brown of the leather heel to the elegantly shaped upper with its glossy decorative seams. The finish was interesting. The leather sole was sooo comfortable. Wearing them brought me joy. Together, we pranced through life. Alas, after about seven months of wear a couple times a week, despite my caring for them regularly with appropriate products, the patent finish began to flake off. My once gorgeous shoes are frumpy and peeling. They sit, sad and lonely, at the back of my closet, dreaming of better days. They wore out like Payless shoes, not like vogs.
