Devoa shoes with thick soles
Really like these shoes but I am wondering about how they would fit and look considering the thick soles that apparently comes with them.

Any own a similar pair or other shoes from Devoa?
I don't have the opportunity to see or try them in person so I am relying on information online. From what I have read the leather is likely Guidi leather which adds to the attraction. I"m just not sure that because of the thick soles that one looks like they are wearing platform shoes. I've also read that they have a large toe box.
Would you simply remove the insoles and size down if somehow the thick soles make it look like you are wearing platform shoes or is this entirely a non-issue as the design makes up for the elevated appearance?
Thoughts, experience, and recommendations in general?

I think the insoles are part of the appeal. They do raise your stance quite a bit but for most SZ type outfits that's usually a plus since it makes you look slimmer overall. I don't find that it looks odd but if you are on the short side, it may be more noticeable. They are quite wide to accommodate for the insole and if you have large feet relative to your height, may look too bulky. I personally would not recommend switching out the insole because finding one that is similarly shaped will not be easy and they are designed specifically for that shoe shape. Not to mention that these insoles are designed for comfort in mind and it's a shame not to take advantage of it. You will probably need to go 1 size down if you plan on using your own insole.

Originally posted by massivegoldteeth View PostThanks. Good to know that it doesn't look like you are wearing platform shoes because of the insole. How's the toe box? Otherwise, do you like them?
Looks great, though. They're a bit better with actual dress socks compared to no-shows.

WAWYT?
What's the point in WAWYT if everyone's taste in clothes and fashion is different? You could post a fit that is perfect for you and get ripped to shreds by everyone else, but at the end of the day clothes are about the wearer not who sees them (if you get what I'm trying to say). Any ideas?
