Can feel a little shallow in the instep but wiggle in and you'll feel comfy.

Well Worth My Weeks of Lust!
Having inherited my love of shoes from my late, beloved mum (known as "Imelda" to her fellow RN's), I finally broke down after weeks of looking and lusting and ordered these beauties. I justified the expense by reasoning that I would "get a lot of wear" out of them, sport them till I die and contribute to manufacturing coffers in a country that's not China. So I'm overjoyed to say that they are PERFECT! I ordeted them in size 8 1/2; I have a high instep, a narrow heel and bunions on the far side of the balls of my feet. And they fit me like Mr. F. came to my house and measured me! I am so pleased with them and will look forward to wearing them always...OR, at least, until I purchase my next pair of Fluveogs!

Zowie. These are edgy loafers! Not for the faint!
Having missed out on the Bishop in black, I made sure I swooped in for these beauties. They are quite narrow. If you have a high instep or a wide foot these will not fit. I am a relatively normal foot and they are super snug. I needed a shoe horn and definitely hose, but I am pretty sure they are going stretch a touch, be perfect ,and will be my go to black work heel. For reference, I am 10 inches long, 4.5 inches wide at the ball, and 11 inches around my arch and the 8.5 is perfect.

Impossibly comfortable and beautiful
I have been looking at these online for over a year. I worried about the reviews and which size I should buy. When I finally just had to get them and they arrived, oh my gosh!!! Such joy to look at. When I went to slide my foot in I worried. I wiggled, used a shoe horn and superb! Wonderful fit. They make me joyous just to wear. They change my day!

Fluevog + Worth = Dreamy
The black/multi version of this beauty reminds me of another gorgeous creation by another gifted designer. Thank you, John, for always beautifying my world! https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/84652

Vog #3 and Super Fine #2 and I am still on cloud 9. I tried these puppies on while returning another pair of shoes and instantly knew they were going home with me. And For the grand finale......... Carrie at the Georgetown location found me a brand spanking new pair that had never been touched with one phone call. They were pleasantly perfect upon arrival. Carrie you “Rock” all day.... every day!!!

Stopped twice!
Got these last week. Very comfortable for heels. The front of the shoe hugs my foot. Wore them all day today, more than 12 hours. Got stopped twice by strangers wanting to comment on my shoes. A good day! Got them in my usual size 8 and am happy with the fit. Probably could have done 7.5 but the way the toe hugs my foot makes this work.

Beautiful and comfortable 😍
I originally ordered these in a 10.5, my usual Fluevog size, but they were actually too big; no big deal, I changed them for a 10 and they're perfect! They are so comfortable! No pinching, chaffing, or squeezing. There's a lot of excess space in the toe-box but this actually adds to the comfort. I ordered the gold but am considering getting them in black as well. Love them!

Ordered these in a 10, but due to a stocking error they weren't available. Wise Fluevogologist suggested a 9.5 based on my previous purchased. I was a bit dubious to size down, but with assurance of return option I agreed to try them. These babies fit perfectly, the vamp is snug, even on my narrowish feet,bbut is stretching nicely. The suede is gorgeous. It's a perfectly beautiful,
comfortable, classic shoe, with just enough funk to make it superfine!

My Go-To Work Shoe
These are absolutely my most comfortable, favorite black shoes AND my most comfortable Fluevogs! I bought them in the black suede. I absolutely adore these shoes. I wore them 8-hrs the very first day with no issues whatsoever. They can be a little tight to get into, so I use the shoe horn the Seattle store gave me and they slip right on. I can't enough about how much I love the Cardinal.

So Gorgeous! Just .5 too tall for me... :(
I love this shoe. She's so damn beautiful and that heel! *swoon* But I am of an age and back/neck that doesn't allow for anything over 2 inches. PLEASE John - remember the aging ladies who can afford your shoes but can't afford the doc bills from wearing them.....

Feels like my first Vog
I am in love with this shoe. It feels like that time I walked into some weird store in Chicago 15 years ago and tried on my first Vog - I am home. First of all, I have a slightly wider foot, narrow heel and arches like Eiffel. I thought these would never fit and I would not like the long toe on my large feet. These fit like a custom shoe. I wear 10.5 in Wearevers and 11 in Enneagrams and F soles and I bought these in 10.5. And, shockingly, they look great on my big feet. They are gilded soft leather with comfortable heels and great arch support. They appear both more sturdy and more beautiful than online. Everyone should have a pair in their wardrobe! So lovely. Go ahead - you know you want to!
