ClarksWomen's Janey Mae, Beeswax, 5 M US

My size is 7.5, but I often order an 8 in closed-toe shoes because I have Morton's Neuroma (which means I am in pain if my toes don't have enough space). I ordered an 8, but found the length a little short. The shoes felt ok with very thin socks but would be too small with regular socks or normal foot swelling with heating up. Since I wanted the shoes also in another color, I ordered the second pair in an 8.5 which is a great fit. Thus, I'd recommend that if you also sometimes vary in size depending on the style that you go with a half size above the larger size. (FYI, I measured the 8.5 shoe against two other pairs of Clarks I have and found it was about the same length as the size 7.5 and a bit shorter than the 8.)Besides general comfort, I recommend these shoes for two other reasons. They have a roomy toe box which is really hard to find in women's regular/medium width shoes. (Even in the size 8, the toe space was better than what I often find, but in the 8.5 it's fabulous!) The other real plus is the color and quality of the suede. First, the color. The navy and the dark grey are intense, rich and what I call true shades (i.e., the navy, for example, doesn't have purple or green overtones as I sometimes find.) As for the quality, it's supple and handsome. It doesn't have that rough, uneven look/touch found with lesser grades of suede.

These run short in length. I took the advice from other reviewers and sized up half a size and the fit was almost perfect. I could have actually gone up a full size but the half size up is good enough. The width is perfect. lots of room in the toe box. I bought the navy blue suede and it's a nice dark color. Shoes come with two pairs of laces. One is a rusty color and the other is navy to match the shoes. The shoe is flat and there is no arch support to speak of but plenty of room to add your own insoles. The shoe is comfortable and walkable. It is something a little different. It's like a cross between an oxford and a moccasin. . If you size up at least half a size it is a five star shoe.

Bought a navy pair at Asheville Clark’s store in US and fell in love. On my feet when at work and these have been a life saver. When I switched shoes one day i was miserable within 2 hours and grabbed my navy pair (had them with me just in case, thank goodness!) and felt better instantly and had a 2nd wind and finished the day feeling good. I knew I needed more colors so I bought this black pair from Clarks in the UK and I adore them. I should buy a 2nd black pair as back up as they are my favorites and I wear mostly black. I bought the brown beeswax also with purple laces. So cool!! So I have 3 pairs for all color needs with different outfits. I have chronic pain and need a consistent reliable comfortable shoe I can count on as I found changing it up can be hard on me physically. They are well made classic craftsmanship! I love Clark’s!!

Love the style. Great quality. They do run a bit short in length but are plenty wide so that makes up for it. I normally wear a 6 1/2 to size 7 shoe and although I feel a 7 1/2 would be to big, the size 7 I got is just a bit short - but they are doable and I do like them very much!

I just received them. So cute. Well made, thick leather, nice sturdy stitching. Just a good shoe. Very comfortable. My toes have plenty of room.

Here is the problem I've had with this cute shoe....they eat socks! Because the inner lining of the shoe is suede instead of smooth leather, my sock is pulled down into the shoe with each step until my entire sock is inside the shoe -- not good. I've had other suede-lined shoes do this over my many decades of shoe wearing. Other than that, I'm pleased with the shoe. I'm a true size 8 medium, an 8.5 in athletic shoes and boots. I ordered this in 8.5, which is a good fit. It runs a bit short and wide. The extra width is good since I have a bunion and hammertoes. Suede is very soft and stretchy, but there is not much cushioning beneath ball of foot and very little arch support. Love that two pairs of shoelaces are included--one matches color of shoe; one matches color of stitching. This style looks so cute with skinny jeans and jeggings, but I'll have to return because I must wear socks with my shoes in the winter, even though I live in the South. If you can wear these barefoot, it's a great little shoe--just order 1/2 size up.

I loved these shoes! They were comfortable right away and my feet didn’t feel sore and tired at the end of the workday. Clarks has always been a good choice but this time, the back stitching gave way after about 10 wears. Looks like I will have to return them. 😩 So disappointed because they were comfy and cute.
