There are some really cute shoes in this brand.  I saw one presented yesterday that I liked a lot.  Are these shoes comfortable?  I need arch support.  Do these shoes have it?  I may try them regardless but would like to know.  Also, do they generally run true to size?  A287954 are the shoes I saw presented, but there are a lot of different ones that I also  like.

I ordered these last year. (I thought they were darling) I wear a 6.5 and 7 was loose.  I knew 6 would be too short, so I kept them.  They slipped on my heel so seldom wore them.  For the price, the arch was practically nonexistent.

Thank you for the feedback @lulu1.  If there is virtually no arch support I may not order them.  The host and models went on and on about how comfortable they were.

I bought two of the styles that were offered last year, in my normal size 8, and I love them.  I have a very high arch and these are very comfortable for me.  I also have a pair of their ankle boots (have had them for 5+ years) and they are very comfortable and still look brand new.

I wore a sandal similar to those in the early 80's. Although they were cute on, they were not comfortable and in summer when feet swell I could hardly stand them on. The sandals were like new and I threw them out. Maybe these are made better.

Zulily is featuring Charleston Shoe Co today. I noticed a style that was extremely similar to one I bought from San Miguel Shoes at least 10 years ago.  Back then it was called Combat Cocktails.  I paid more than the one from CSC.  Their Monterey is described as "Cobblestones to Cocktails" and made in Mexico.

 

This is one of the most comfortable shoes I ever wore.  It can be thrown in the washer. It comes in numerous colors.  If you are a half size, go up.
