Overall this is a very good shoe. I have a hard time finding comfortable, non-ugly shoes that accommodate my lymphedema praecox, but these work quite well. From the side, they look like cute casual booties that could be worn to work with the right pants. The toe box cover looks a bit too much like Chucks from the top though. The wide elastic straps are stable, comfortable, and help with forefoot compression. Be careful how you wear/rub the ends of the straps though--mine started to curl/fold upwards. This aesthetically not great, but it doesn't alter the function. The fabric is sturdy and breathable--which are important if your feet tend to get sweaty --for those of you with chronic food conditions, you know it's extremely uncomfortable to have sweaty AND swollen feet, so this is a real plus!
The only complaint I have is that the footbed's arch and slope placement are set a bit too close to the heel, which don't balance the weight and pressure distribution and cause feet to slide forward.

Love, Love, Love
I had a hard time getting used to my shoes. They seemed heavy. Persistence paid off. They are so comfortable I wear them all the time. And the compression has helped the swelling.

Just Got My Shoes!
I am one of those poor souls (soles) who have very “thick” feet. Sorta like “bread dough rising”. Yeah, it’s not pretty. Suffice it to say I have a tough time finding attractive shoes that fit my feet. Well, I don’t have to look any further. I just got my Neo shoes and tried them on - at the end of the day when my feet are at their “puffiest”. Whooo Hooo! They’re GREAT! Totally adjustable and very good looking to boot (pun totally intended). So comfortable; I’m planning on wearing them to work tomorrow.

Got the Saturday Shoes
Bought these shoes and cannot believe how comfortable they are. The first day I wore them all day with no pain. My feet swelled up but I was able to still wear the shoes till just before bed. Love them. Will be back for another pair. Thank you!!

Awesome!
These are so cute, stylish, and comfortable! The heel is perfect height, truly shock absorbing; they are comfortable for long wear. Love them! Cute as the dickens!

Wonderful shoes
I have size 8B feet ordinarily, but my feet swell up when I travel. I bought these shoes because, on a trip back from Europe, I took my shoes off on the nine-hour flight and my feet swelled up so much that I couldn't get my shoes back on! I had to go through the airport in my slippers. Now I travel in the Pandere shoes and have no problems with my feet. We recently went to a film festival -- lots of walking, lots of standing in line, lots of sitting in movies. In previous years, my feet were sore, but this year, no problems! I look forward to buying a pair of the men's extra wide shoes for my husband.

A Shoe that does not hurt!!!
Over the last 10 years I have spent thousands of dollars on shoes that did not fit comfortably over time and that some days I could not get on at all. Although I might have a nice dress to wear, I always had to worry about my shoes.
I tried your Neo in desperation. These shoes are everything that was promised! Thank you so much for being the women that you are!!

How wide are they?
Less of a review and more of a comment, because I've not owned a pair. You need to show a shot of the bottom of the shoe, because from these shots they look narrow for my foot. I find the greatest comfort in shoes that have a wide and therefore stable base and lots of room for my toes to move around.

Wow
One of the few pairs of shoes that required no break-in period, super comfortable from the get go ! For me the added bonus is that my feet are a size different and these shoes (I got the Neo) fit both of them because they adjust. I did need to order a size larger than I normally wear, cuz the Neo runs a bit small. Super happy with them and I will buy Pandere shoes again. ❤️❤️❤️

Finally, there are shoes I can wear!
My feet are super unique. I suffer from lymphedema in one foot and must keep it wrapped. My other foot requires an AFO ankle brace for stability. I have not been able to find shoes that fit over all my supports until now. The neo shoe is perfect. It expands around my lymphedema bandages. The criss cross straps adjust to whatever size of foot I am dealing with at a particular time. Once the shoe is on, I can tighten the elastic in the back to secure the shoe. On the other side, the neo shoe is supportive enough to hold the brace in place without stepping out of it. The removable insole helped me balance out the differences between my two feet. All of this, and they look like real shoes! I feel like I am walking like a normal person, and I can't thank the wonderful people at Pandere Shoes enough!

Finally found a shoe that fits!!
At last, I have an attractive shoe that fits every time. Thank you for making them.

Cool shoe!
I just tried my Neo shoes on and I am thrilled with the quality. Since I wear two different sizes it has been impossible to find a pair of closed toe shoes that work for me. These are great because I can tighten up the one on my shorter foot and the toes on my longer foot don't have to be squished. I can loosen or tighten the straps across the middle of my foot to accommodate swelling as the day goes on. I am looking forward to having comfortable shoes for when the cold weather arrives! Also, the heel on this is just shorter than my short socks, so I can also wear them to events that call for a dressier shoe than my sandals without having to wear a long pair of socks. Really glad I took a chance on this new concept.
