Toms Women's Cara Cozy Lug Sole Loafer Mule

These are very cute shoes. I, too, thought the upper was extremely painful until I realized that there was a stiff cardboard shaper in the shoe. Once removed, they are very comfortable except that my foot slid and it was too much work keeping them on.

I thought these would be so cozy, comfy, and warm. They are so absolutely awful that it seems impossible that anyone could have made shoes this uncomfortable, even if they were in a contest to engineer the most uncomfortable shoe in the history of the world. Don't be fooled by the fact that it's a mule. Don't be fooled by the furriness. These are crazy painful from the moment you start to slide your foot in... like the upper is made with concrete. There is no flexibility. They also feel super cheap. They are going back, and I will never buy Toms again. (I have average feet... typically wear an 8.5, bought a 9 in these to have extra comfort....) They should be ashamed of these.

Every winter season I am on the search for a lined mule. I was excited when I found this one online and ordered it. It hit many boxes on my list but also has some hits. The lining is nice and smooth, the sole though feels heavy and for an open back I don't see walking in it too comfortable. The heel height was a plus for me, as I can not walk in flats. At the end its a no go for me but if these are not concerns for you it is worth a try.

I ordered because they looked as if they would be so comfortable like the Ugg brand. They are extremely uncomfortable and not flexible at all?? I question if anyone tried these on before manufacturing!
