The Fit Expert
Jessamy from our Boston (Faneuil Hall) store says:
The fit of the Zaza is on the long side. The strap is not adjustable, so the fit might be loose if you have a low instep or a very narrow foot. Many go down half a size in this style.
Description
Named for and designed by San Franciscan Samantha Zaza for John's Open Source Footwear Program (OMG! If you don't know about this click on Fluevog's Open Source). Built upon the Fluevog classic Mini heel, this spats inspired wide strap with three cutesy buttons attached by elastic is sure to fit all shapes of feet. Samantha's design made John stand up and take notice, and he declared her design an OSF "Chosen" design. We hope you are as excited as John is. (Learn more about Samantha and her shoe at Open Source Footwear) Go on, fall in love. We dare you!
48th Anniversary Fluevog Day Limited Edition
To celebrate John's 48th Fluevog Day on May 15th, 2018, we brought back this well-loved design, reimagining it in custom, textured floral patent with teal and red accents. Fall in love with this limited edition Mini all over again on the best day of year!

Heavenly!
Extremely disappointed
This practice is terrible customer service and borderline or even actual fraud.
Odd fit- but nothing a shoemaker can't fix
SO CONFUSED!
LOVE
Update
Most beautiful shoes I own
Can I have these in every colorway please?
Adorable and Sassy!
Fab!
I'm still in love
ATTENTION FELLOW FLUEVOGERS!
Shoes that make you giggle. . .
Anyway, I tried on this, tried on that, no luck with this size in this or that size in that. Finally I said, "How about anything in red." She brought these out, unboxed them, and I laughed out loud. They are ThE BeSt! Very comfortable. My other shoes (Operetta Bartoli and Bellevue Dora Dufran) are both 11.5. Zaza is a very comfortable, beautifully fitted 11. Yum-ee. Of course compliments abound when I wear them. One girl in a ladies' room line said, "I'm reeeeeally enjoying your shoes right now."
Anyway, sometimes I just go in the bedroom and put them on and look at my feet in them. I aaadoooore these lovelies. The purple and green are really calling my name.
Love these babies.....
Still fabulous
so great
In shoe heaven...
My giant feet are so happy
Many many thanks to Preeta at the Granville store in Vancouver who understood the plight of a big-footed gal who craves style in a town full of tiny-tootsied women. :-D
Fantabulous part two
Fantabulous!!
Love Love Love Love
Like wearing Brad Pitt on your feet!
I had read reviews about people stopping you in the street but the attention I receive wearing these shoes is CRAZY.
I was in London, UK recently coordinating an International conference, and one of my Nigerian delegates approached me. This man is very sweet but quite reserved and shows little emotion - well - he LOVED my ZaZas and was thrilled to find out he could get men's shoes too.
Just today I was whistled at when some construction workers saw my shoes getting out of the car (not something that normally happens), had a 7 minute Flu Vog conversation with one of the leaders at my daughter's theatre camp, and since then have had two other women tell me "nice shoes".
You begin to understand what it must be like to have the paparazzi after you all the time!
I held these today.
They were these Zaza beauties.
The feeling was a cross between holding soft butter, absolute perfection, with a touch of sexy and a dash of daring, combined with pure comfort and giddy playfulness with a pinch of shear bad ass.
We parted ways. I shed a tear. Feeling incomplete.
I have a feeling one day a pair of Zaza's will come home with me, just not today.

Prettiest Vogs But Also Uncomfortable
Amazing
My only complaint is that within a few days the leather lining inside started to peel back and bunch in the heel and it jabs into my heels. It won't smooth out (the leather has shrunk I think)and I'm unsure if I should just cut it off or crazy glue it down or...something.
All in all...they're very pretty and I'm glad I spent the money.
The happiest shoes I've ever bought
The FLUEVOGS
They run big! Big!
First Minis and won't be my last
Talk about causing a sensation!
Did I mention that they are totally comfortable to wear all day!
comfy but seams rub sores
So very awesome
Makes wide feet happy!
The thick heel makes walking very stable and yet they are not granny shoes. You will get noticed.
THank you, John and the gal who designed these!
First Fluevogs and I'm in love!
I'm in love
Zazaza zoom!
Sadly, not for super-narrow feet.
I finally had to replace my beloved Zazas with Pearl Harts, which I also love. But I still miss the Zazas. :(
Heart Palpitations
Personally, for me, the Zazas fit true to size (I am a size 10).
I tried the 9.5 on as suggested by Phil and found that my toes were right up against the toe box.
I was sleeping yesterday (I'm a shift worker) when the doorbell rang midday. I raced downstairs, and low and behold, the mailman stood there with a brightly wrapped turquoise box. I knew they were my Zazas. I signed a signature that I'm sure looked nothing like mine and grabbed the box out of his hands. I ran to the kitchen, ripped open the beautiful wrapping and squealed and put on my lovelies. I pranced infront of the mirror admiring their beauty and comfort and relunctantly made my way back to bed to prepare for my second night shift. I slept with them. ,->
Singular Shoes
So Fabulous!
Worth every penny
GOOOOOOOOOOSH, LOVE AT FIRST WEAR!
Comfy
PS -- UPDATE!
BEYOND AWESOME
So so so so happy!
My first wonderful pair
I get compliments on these every time I wear them--my husband even notices that everyone stares at my shoes when I go out in them. I feel tall and fabulous while wearing these because, well, I am! ,->
Thanks for making these wonderfully comfortable shoes--who knew you could be comfortable and fabulous at the same time??
My favourite Vogs
Happy Birthday to me!!!!
"these shoes or a bike?" of course I said "the shoes!!!" ha-ha-ha. I lived in Seattle for 12 years and one time I left the store with 4 pair. Awesome sale! I shop in Vancouver & L.A. too. Love you John. xoxoxoxoxoxoxo
First Pair
Totally in LOVE!
Second Vogs
Cool Looking AND Comfortable!
Looking for advice
However, after a month of fairly frequent wear, they are still rubbing the skin raw where the outside lip hits, right about where the spat begins. Is this a quirk of my foot, or did anyone else have this probem, and if so, are there any solutions?
Amazing!
I went with the thought of getting one fun pair and one more sedate pair. I did, and these are my fun pair. They fit perfectly and the only color in my size, purple and orange. How could I say no???
Very comfy, very stable even with a 3 inch heel. Fit true to size, no need to go up a half size even with the heel height and my wider feet. I'm in love!

Soooo Cute!
LOVE these shoes
LOVE THESE!
Delicious!
I had another pair of Vogs picked out for my next purchase but I may possibly have to buy a second pair of Zazas in one of the other color combos. Love, love, LOVE this shoe! If you're on the fence, buy them, try them, don't deny them. ,-)
These run a wee bit smaller than some of the other Minis - I tried on a few other Mini shoes in 9 that fit, but these ones fit 8.5, and I can still wear a thin sock comfortably.
Many thanks to the Boston store for letting me try on lots of different styles when I first went to visit. Everyone was super friendly, and they were helpful with all my questions. Fluevogs rock, and I wish I could afford to have all my shoes be vogs.
Yay, 12s!
Perfection in a shoe!
So - a couple months later, after making the epic decision to return to work after being a stay at home Mama, the very first thing I did after accepting a job was hit up the Fluevog website and make these shoes MINE! Yeah, I probably took the job just to have a valid reason to have these shoes - but I'm so glad I did, as these shoes are absolutely DELICIOUS! They feel fabulous, look amazing and I wish there was more things in the world that bring me as much happiness as these shoes do! (Ok a bit much, but they're awesome!)
My feet run a bit wide, but I wear a size 10, and in these as well, with a perfect fit. If you're thinking of these shoes - my advice... BUY THE SHOES!!
I am now a fluevog addict
Yummy
Well happy birthday to me!!!
Beautiful fit, great style

I'm in love...
I had dreamed this shoe
How should it fit????
I can't take these shoes off!!!
Takes a while to get down the street...
They do run pretty true to size (at least for me) I usually wear an 8.5, but fiance got me a 9 (just in case). They are a little loose, but was able to take up the slack with an insert. If I buy another pair, I'll definitely get the 8.5. First day I wore these to work with a brown & green skirt...I was stopped 7 times (within 3 blocks) by people commenting on how wonderful they are and "where did I get them". :-D I was almost late getting back from lunch! But it made my day! Thanks JOHN! I get asked all the time if they are comfortable... and YES they are very, very comfortable!
SA-WEEEET!!!
3" Heel? I don't believe you!
My gateway drug
I love these shoes
Fab Style and Amazing Comfort
