Jumping Jacks Cheerleader III Saddle Shoe

Excellent pair of saddle shoes! Good looking, well made, nicely cushioned and perfect for everyday wear. I dress 40s/50s style daily and these are great for completing most of my casual outfits. I've been wearing them daily for everyday errands, shopping, working,walking the dog and I find them super comfortable. The uppers and tongue are well padded as well as the insole. There is no arch support tho. The soles are a bit stiff at first so you feel very flat footed but they soften up after about 3 wearings. I got an 8 W and find them a little narrow at the end of the toe box. I have a wide left foot...lol...and a bunion but only on the left foot....so the left foot is the one that feels a little snug. My right foot is average so the wide fits fine in the toe but is a little too wide near the heel....so it slips at my heel but not in a painful way. It just eats my right sock sometimes. Nom...Nom...Nom...But overall I would consider these a great fit for my weirdo feet and I plan on getting the navy version soon as well.

way to big in the toe box. The shoe is very well made and comfortable but because it is so big in the toe box area the shoe presses down over my toes when I walk.

If I wouldn't have ordered a size bigger in this shoe, I would have been returning them. They run rather tight (I have slightly wider feet than most), and they start to hurt my feet after a few hours of wear. I'm sure it will get better once they're broken in a bit better, but for now it's slightly excruciating. However....if you have "normal" sized feet, I'm sure these shoes will be perfect for you, and you can't beat the price. Very cute look to them too!

While looking to buy a pair of saddle shoes for my girlfriend I looked at multiple listings and brands. Finally decided on the Jumping Jacks because they were leather and the price was excellent. Quite simply, these shoes are extremely well made and were a real bargain.One of the brands I looked at was Bass. Multiple reviews talk about them coming unglued. Every single pair of Bass shoes I've purchased for myself or someone else has come unglued! Not exaggerating. My gf is re-gluing a pair of Bass shoes I bought for her six months ago. Never going to buy another pair of Bass again! Another brand I looked at was Futasma which is more for costumes and isn't leather. Multiple reviews talk about them coming apart after just a few times wearing them.I looked closely at the Jumping Jacks - sewn around all the edges. Leather upper. Stylish - more stylish than the Willits brand which one reviewer said looked like orthopedics! (They do like orthopedics.) And comfortable according to the girlfriend.

Fortunately, I bought these with Amazon Prime. I've noticed that with Amazon Prime, you get better service. Not sure if it's set up that way but it seems to be.Anyway about the shoes. I needed them for a theme party at the office ("Rockin' Around the Block".) These shoes were surprisingly comfortable and as I wore them around the office, I thought I might like to wear them more often, even incorporate them into my eclectic every day wardrobe.But after just wearing them around the office for a few hours, the white part started to peel. By the end of the day, they looked like complete crap. I sent them back and got an Amazon credit for the full amount. (I go for the credits because I know I'll be shopping on Amazon again.)If you buy these shoes, just take note on how to return them and be sure to do it right away before any deadlines. Because then don't hold up at all. This is unfortunate because I really did like the shoes (fit and style).

I'm a sucker for saddle shoes, and not just because the style flatters long, skinny feet like mine. I've always loved them, and I think I always will. And this seems to be a pair that I'll hang on to for a long, long time to come. I expected to wear these with my orthotics, as the narrowest width is a AA, but, since I wear them with socks anyway, I can lace them enough to snug up to my AAAA feet. Even better, they are extremely well cushioned (skinny feet don't have much padding, and callouses are all that mine have). The collar is thickly padded, too, which further helps keep my heels in place. The shoes seem to be very well made, including stitched rather than glued soles. If necessary, I'll be able to have them resoled, although I doubt if the shoe repair shop would be able to equal the comfort of this thickly cushioned sole. All in all, these are more comfortable than the athletic shoes my foot doctor recommended for daily wear, and fun to boot.

A shoe that fits, is sturdy & is totally comfortable. I have a short foot, so I could have gotten a 5 1/2W. I wore these as a child. I didn't remember how comfortable they were, but I wanted to give these shoes a shot. I have so much trouble finding footwear for my short, fat, wide little feet! They have a very solid sole & soft interior padding. I don't need any kind of extra insole. No 'break' in needed. I can wear these shoes all day long with absolutely no pinching or pain or aching anywhere in my feet, legs or back! I wear a regular bobby-sock with them. If I were to buy another pair, it would be from another company, as Jumping Jacks Saddle Shoe doesn't have a 'rounded toe' shoe. I recommend this shoe to anyone who needs to feel sturdy & steady on their feet. People who like to keep their shoes on all day long. :) True sizing. I will only buy shoes on Amazon from now on.

These soles in these shoes are so well padded, the area around my ankles (and I have fat ankles) was very comfortable as well, but the reason I had to return them was the toe cap was too small. The manufacturers made sure everything else was great, just did not give enough height in the toe cap..it crushed my toes mercilessly, especially my big toe. The length was perfect, the width was perfect..I miss having saddle oxfords, unfortunately the search goes on.. :-(
