What an Experience!

dmeasy — Fri, 21 Jun 2024 17:49:55 GMT

I just received a shoe order that I was waiting for. Well it sure wasn't AMAZING as the operator says when calling in to QVC. I bought the shoes because the host and guest said positive things about them, but upon trying them on their presentation didn't match reality. i couldn't move forward because of the weight of each shoe. Back they go again. I will now maybe learn my lesson not to listen to the glowing presentations given instead of the truth. I have never seen shoes thay heavy being worn by anyone.

@dmeasy. Please include the item number so I can see if they're the same as the shoes I'm returning for the same reason

Hi @dmeasy I would be more interested in your message if I knew what shoes you were posting about. I buy shoes, don't like heavy ones.

@NYCLatinaMe. This is the shoe I got. I never saw a shoe with so little substance that was so inflexible and heavy. Every time I took a step, it's so heavy, it fell off.

Thanks for posting @Kachina624.. Sorry they didn't work out, I can see what you are saying, and they do look cute. But they weren't even in my radar because I need wides. I bought Cloudsteppers once and that was enough for me. I don't think the quality is there. Clark's can be OK for the price, and I do buy some because they offer wide.

I also avoid slip ons, but will admit to some rubber slides from Revitalign that I wear exclusively inside the home. My feet favor Revitalign in general. I just can't live on Revitalign because I like some pretty shoes. So my feet and I are in disagreement.

When my mother broke her hip, her surgeon told us open back shoes were a menace, the cause of most broken hips. If one is not super steady, which I haven't been in about 14 years, they are dangerous.

Somehow, I can't imagine the host saying "these shoes are so heavy" or "these shoes are not lightseight". They never say what's wrong with something.

Liked the navy slide, but they were so heavy, unfortunately I had to return them.

I remember many customers bought a pair of shoes from QVC and we complained that the shoes fell off of our feet. There were so many complaints that QVC refunded all who purchased the shoes. Now the hosts are there to sell and I am sure the shoes were difficult for them to keep on, but they never let on.

Maybe they glued the shoes to their feet. LOL

@Kachina624

those are so cute and i am a big cloudsteppers fan. my most favorite clarks division. i may try and look for them in our local outlet store to see how they feel on my foot.

you may actually like this koolaburra shoe.....i bought them in every color. very lightweight and comfortable. i was recently on vacation and took two pair with me and used them for a lot of walking. they are now at a final sale price though. i would have gotten a second black pair if they were still available in my size.

@sunshine45. Thanks, but I'm out of luck. I wear a size 11M.

Backless shoes need to be higher in the heel then in the front or, like flips, have a toe peg to keep them on. These shoes have neither. The thick sole makes keeping them on even harder.
