Happy Friday and Happy April! About 15 years ago, I had a couple of pairs of Ash wedges. They weren't that comfortable but I loved the look of them. Plus they made me a couple of inches taller. When I saw Puma released a pair, I had to give this style another try.
For reference I typically wear size 5.5 but for this review, I sized up.
Fresh out of the box and I love the taupe suede with the chocolate accents. How cute are they? These have a velcro tab that adds a bit more of a street style.
I have not worn these out yet to try, so I can't say if these are slippery or not. If I had to make an educated guess, I would probably not wear these in the rain. Since the wedges are made out of suede, I wouldn't wear them in the rain anyway, but Puma will be releasing these in a full leather version coming April 16th!
I tied the laces on the inside to give a clean look in the front.
I think they're amazing. The real question is, are they comfy? Or at least comfier than Ash wedges?
I'm wearing size 6 because from past purchases, Puma tends to run a little narrow. After trying them on and walking around the house, these are 100% comfier than Ash wedge sneakers. I'm not saying I would walk 5 plus miles in these, but I think they would be great for casual walking.
BTW, I asked Jared what he thought of these, and he immediately said No. I gasped and in my whiny voice, I asked But Whyyyyyy? He said it's because they make my feet look really tiny and the front of the shoe is so short, that it reminds him of pig feet. 💀😩🤣
I mean, I guess I can see where he's coming from. 😒
(I'm also very tempted to give these a try and see which shoe I like more.)
What do you all think? Love them? Hate them? How do you feel about wedge sneakers? Did you have a pair back in the day? That's it for me! For those who celebrate, have a happy Easter/Passover! Everyone else, have an amazing weekend!

(Also available in Indochine Blue. I wear my waffle Scubas way more than my fleece Scubas!)
Sorry but I’d had to agree with Jared. Iove wedge sneakers as I’m 5’3” and husband is 6’3”. I own several pairs including a pair from Isabel Marant. I also size up as my feet tend to slide forward a bit. I’m a size 7.5 and get 8. I think if you have tiny feet these type of sneakers make your feet look even smaller. I don’t have small feet but my feet look tiny in wedges. Puma ones do look cute and those colours are very pretty together
ReplyDeleteðŸ˜I see it too, but I still think they look cute. I did notice that by sizing up my feet do not slide forward in the Pumas like they did in the Ash. This will probably be my only pair though!
DeleteNow I can’t unsee pig hoofs 😬 thanks Jared 🤣🤣
