Inspired by the lusty, busty pin ups from the '70s, John designed The Farrah bombshell with the 'nature knows best' look. Hidden platforms for comfort, custom roller buckles for fit adjustment, tunite heel lifts and soles, and an additional serrated rubber topy for traction combine to provide better support than an unzipped polyester jumpsuit. Full-bodied, vegetable tanned leathers with a smooth, slight powdery finish built on a 4.25" cork-wrapped wedge heel, the triple t-strap Farrah is perfect for the bathing suit beauties who shake their hair down in soft feathery winds.

Mixed feelings about these!!
I was thrilled to receive these beauties after I ordered them online. The mango colour is stunning and the heel is fantastic. I usually wear an 8.5 or 9 so I ordered the 9 which is, sadly, a tight fit with squishy toes and some heel slippage: which I have *never* had before. I tightened the top strap, which seems to help although it is light leather so dirty from the grease from the buckle, which is another drag. These are not my most comfortable pair of fluevogs and I am still stretching them out. Proud owner of too many fluevogs to count but these are not my faves, John!

I have been eyeballing these for awhile now and finally broke down and ordered them when they were on sale. They showed up on my desk at work today......a little bit of spring in frigid -30 winter weather! They fit true to size......I am a 7.5 in Truths and Attentions. Now to find a warm outfit to show these off with tomorrow! @>- @>-

Love them!!!!
SO I just got my pair of Farrah's in Yellow ^^ :-D
Yes they are cute enough to get a smile! First of all when I picked them up I loved the color a bit darker than the picture but still perfect in my eyes. I then tried them on, sadly they where still cold from the Oregon weather, but I managed to slip into them. Great! until I got to the top buckle which did not close.....so instead of sending them back, and making a new selection, and waiting 2 weeks, I made two new little holes up top and slipped into them and boogied!
My feet are a bit wide but they stretch just fine to fit me ]:o)
Thanks John for another pair of amazing shoes!!! I am paring these shoes with a cute yellow dress and going out on the town!
P.S don't wait to take these out in the summer wrap up with a scarf and show them off now!

The Only Mango I Like
These shoes were an anniversary present from my sweet husband @>- because I am just not much of a jewelry wearing girl. I am a tallish girl and these shoes push my height into the realm of supermodels. They lengthen the leg quite nicely despite the seemingly sort of bulky look of the shoe itself. The buckles are easily adjustable, which is important as my foot is narrow through the ankle, but the buckles do leave a sort of greasy looking mark on the strap which might bother some people. These are definitely my least comfortable pair of fluevogs, but that's only because I have seriously effed up feet. You lucky dolls with normal feet can probably wear these all day, no problemo, but I can only get about a half a day if there's a moderate amount of walking involved. For me, that is still amazing though. I went a half size bigger than my normal size for these, as was suggested by other reviewers, and that was definitely the right decision. My only beef with this transaction was that nobody from the store which sent my shoes bothered to contact me, despite my specifically requesting that someone did, in regards to the fit. So thank you to the other reviewers-you ladies saved the day for me! :-D *-O

And now, I shall take over the world.
So I followed advice from other feedback and ordered up half a size, and these are so fabulous that I can barely contain myself. I'm 6'5" in them (about 1.98 metres) and, as always, am enjoying the view. I SAID, HOW'S THE WEATHER DOWN THERE, PEOPLE?
In short, they're gorgeous, as well as comfortable straight out of the box. And as someone who's drawn to yellow but can't wear it anywhere close to her face, I get an extra kick from the color.
(Note: I do wish the box had been wrapped a bit better; it got rained on [or something] and smushed in transit.)

Hot Hot Hot
I bought these on a whim, because I love fluevogs, they were on sale and I love wedges.
After squeeling in delight when they arrived, a terrible pout developed as they were far too small across the toes and in length (I ordered a 9, most of my other fluevogs are 9's.
Unlike all my other fluevogs, I've had to slowly break these babies in (well not so slowly its only been 5 wears) but they are now more than comforable to wear sans stockings! Happy Dance :-)
So if you're wide of foot, don't despair, they will stretch our very quicky.
They are one amazing pair of shoes on, VERY flattering for wider feet/ legs and quite cushioned - they are 10cm heels with a 2cm platform after all!)

This is my second pair of Fluevogs, and I love these. I am 8.5, and after I ordered these on line, the store contacted me to say that they run narrow in the toes and asking if I wanted to order 9. I did, and 9 is perfect for me. Can't wait to wear these in the fall!

I first fell in love with these when I spotted them at the Portland store opening party and have been lusting after them since. The sale price seemed like a sign we were destined to be together. I love these shoes! I am only 5'3, so I love the height they give me without the pain of your typical heel. The mango color is beautiful and the grey buckles give a nice edgy look. Thanks again Mr. Fluevog.

Fabulous
I too am sad that I didn't wait a bit longer to purchase these shoes at a really great price. Instead, I got the really good price. These shows looks great on and after one wearing, are very comfortable. I frequently stand at my closet trying to figure out a work outfit that shows these off without getting those "looks". I work in a conservative environment but these shoes with a long pant are a great teaser! >-)

Try. You Will Like.
Oh boy, do I ever wish I had been more patient and waited for the sale on these beauties. The look is very sexy on and looks great with mini dresses or jeans; the buckles lend an edgy look. The grey leather is soooo soft and yummy, inside and out. Fit is true to size, although the toe box is a little tight but stretching. A half size up proved too long and created heel slipping, so stuck with my normal size 8. Since I missed out on the yellow Operetta boots in my size, maybe I can make a case for yellow Farrahs at the sale price.
