Never received my item and no actual person to talk with. PayPal was able to get my refund otherwise this company appears to be very shady!!! Buyer BEWARE!!!

Hi Evy: I am very sorry to hear about your poor experience with Adelante. Unfortunately, your order coincided with a challenging period for the original ownership. Adelante has since changed hands — Horacio here, Adelante's new owner — and I can assure you that the issue you experienced has been left in the past. Feel free to drop me a note via our website, I'd love the opportunity to leave a new and positive impression. - Horacio

A classic and versatile sandal

These shoes are beautifully made and I look forward to enjoying them for years to come. The heel height is just right and they are quite comfortable from the first wearing. I appreciated being able to order custom sizes for each of my feet!

My new shoes

I like the shoes. This was a second fit. I have a long, skinny foot, with no true flesh. Still slightly loose. They are comfortable, although sometimes they squeak when I walk; Seems to originate in the heel to the footbed. I might get a pair of the mules later.

Beware stretching

Runs a bit big in strap, especially the lower one. I think it stretched. Otherwise comfortable.
Heel height is well proportioned.

Gorgeous quality and a beautiful way of communicating a transparent supply chain. The leather felt soft and already broken in. They are the most comfy heels I own!

Beautiful sandal & customer service

Beautiful sandal & customer service was wonderful to work with. I will be a repeat customer and already have my eye on two more pair. If you’re hard to fit, or just have large feet I can’t recommend Adelante enough!

Quality made but need more cushion

From the moment you see these you know they are hand made. They look fantastic and high quality. I ordered the size I always wear in a wide and they fit perfect. My only complaint is the front ball of the shoe has very little cushioning and is hard when I walk. I had to add an external cushion pad. Otherwise they are great and don't rub or cause any blisters.

Super soft and comfortable

These are the softest most luxurious sandals ever. Supple soft real leather that makes for the most comfortable fit. The heel is the perfect height. Perfect for casual wear or dressing up.

Excellent detail

Excellent shoe! My wife says they are extremely comfortable. While I may not be able attest to the comfort, I can say that the build quality is wonderful. The attention to detail and finishing is exemplary and a credit to the craftsmen. Everything is made of good quality leather and every stitch is perfectly aligned.

Well done Adelante, well done.

Classy and comfortable high heels sandals

There’s a classic charm to these sandals. The heels is very comfortable and sturdy, the color of the leather unusual and overall I’m very pleased with them.
They have a handmade feel to them.

Gorgeous custom sandals by talented craftsmen

My sandals needed to be customized in order to fit. The customer service was outstanding and the craftsman quickly shortened the straps to fit. The shoes are beautifully made by skilled craftsmen who earn a living wage.

Amazing to have shoes that fit!

I have a size 13.5 women’s foot and as anyone knows that has that size foot it’s impossible to find cute shoes. I have to say that the Serena was super comfortable right out of the box. My initial pair had a flaw in the leather and the strap tore away, but the Adelante team made it very easy to get a replacement pair. So far so good. The leather is soft and I’ve never had a shoe fit so well. I highly recommend having them help you measure your foot because if I’d just used their chart I would have ended up with a size 15 (I wear a men’s size 13). All in all highly recommend - custom shoes at a reasonable price. I’ll be ordering a pair of boots for the winter next.

Perfect summer shoe

Bought this shoe in the black color and loved it so much that I bought a second pair in caramel. These are beautifully made, versatile, and so comfy. Love that I can walk to the office in these and not have any blisters like my other work heels - and they were great right out of the box with no breaking in needed. Buy these, you won't regret it! They are worth every penny. And love that there is a social impact mission behind the company.

So many compliments!

This is a gorgeous shoe. I bought it in caramel to wear with dresses and skirts, and ended up planning outfits specifically to include it. Best of all, after a summer of wear, it is still in gorgeous condition (unlike so many other summer sandals I have owned in the past). This pair of shoes will be part of my wardrobe for many years to come.

Beautiful, comfortable

As expected, these sandals do not disappoint. Right out of the box they felt buttery on my feet. Too bad I’m not walking much because they’re are so comfortable. This was def an investment for post-pandemic summers and I do not regret it!
