@Sweet_Serenity  I have over two dozen pairs and not a single one make a noise.  Have you tried putting powder in the footbed?  I'd call CS at the company and see what they suggest. 


Every single pair! Made a squish sound. Even friends and family said something. Yes! Tried your suggestion not even that elimated the sound effects. NO problem! Returned every single pair refunded shipping costs. No worries, No longer plan ordering this over priced inferior ugly shoe. Makes my feet look HUGE. 😂

@Sweet_Serenity I agree with you. I ordered two pairs of the last TSV and had to send back because of the irritating squish noise it makes.


I have 4 pairs of Alegria in 3 different styles and not one of them makes any kind of noise.  But none of them were purchased from QVC.  Maybe a quality issue??

My QVC Alegrias are totally silent, as are the rest of them.  I wear a size 11, so mine don't look small, but I find them to be very attractive with an "interesting" and different look.  Fantastic leathers and hardware.  Some people don't want different or interesting and no, they don't make big feet look small, so celebrate them.  I get many compliments on them from total strangers.

I wear an 8 narrow. How do Alegria shoes fit? Wide?

Re: New Alegria TSV?

[ Edited ]

@Squirrel Lover

 

I've found both the sandals and clogs to be medium, which is the width I wear.

 

But if you get Alegria styles with adjustable straps (via buckle or Velcro), you can tighten them if needed.

 

The closed-back styles may be slimmer-fitting as well.

 

I think you'll love the support and cushioning.  8-)

Anyone care to share info on arch support of this brand of shoes?  The clogs that were a TSV last winter were so stiff I couldn't even get them on my feet to know if there was any arch support, so I had to send them back.  I skipped the last TSV sandal because I was still worried about stiff leather, but I am trying to keep an open mind about the brand, so I'm gathering info, if anyone cares to share.

Why is it not mentioned that Alegria has a hard footbed????  I don't care for hard footbeds but some people like them.  However, I think it should be talked about and it never is.  Cat Very Happy

@Katcat1

 

It's not as hard as Birkenstock's, and there's very comfortable memory foam cushioning.

Interesting...I have four pairs and just ordered the TSV ( love the way they look!) and never had an issue with noise.
