Customer photo review of Barista Shoe

This is my second pair of barista shoes. This first pair is probably about 6 or 7 years old and still going strong. But I decided to grab a second pair since they are so comfortable. Love these shoes Susan Sanderson

Customer photo review of The Traveler Sandal

After searching for a shoe /sandal 10 weeks postop on mid foot fusion I feel like I hit the jackpot. They are very stylish and they feel comfortable and fit my swollen foot . I am hoping that a closed in shoe will work as well with my feet. Thank you Carol Z

Customer photo review of Two Step

I have swollen ankles and overhang, so I needed to actually get somebody to fold back the back flap and put a little rivet in it. I consulted with Susan from Pandere first and she noted that in this picture the back cord is not in the right place- - I just want you to know I knew that. I was just trying it all different ways to see if anything worked. Anyway with the little rivet and some strategic inserts it's an incredibly comfortable shoe. That back flap and the little side back flaps for me are in the way which is why I took off one star. I appreciate the customer service. Thanks.

Got the forest love? Now, so can my feet! Love love love this perfect forest floor earthy brown! It’s ans if my feet are eating the best chocolate and drinking the best coffee. My feet now coordinate with the mushrooms! Thanks to Pandere designers for making the forest possible for me to wander in with colors that sing to me. Finally shoes that fit and hold my feet thru any terrain.

These are the best office shoes. I can wear them longer than any other shoes and the heavier/flatter base help my posture and I have less tripping/off balance falls.

I’m just so excited to find these. I don’t get “dressed up” often but it’s nice to have something that both looks nice and feels great. And they come in size 12! For every day wear, i live in my “two-step” also from Pandere. Get yourself a pair too.

Customer photo review of Two Step

Honestly i love my two step. I just bought my third and fourth pairs! I hear you asking wait wait a minute did they fall apart that quickly? Nope not at all! My first pair i got a few years back when i was experiencing lymphedema after a few surgeries and was wearing lymphatic wraps and there were ZERO shoes that i could get to fit me. Oh and also i wear size 12 ladies so good luck with that too! A lymphatic equipment expert who is herself a lymphie patient introduced me to the company and I’m in love with the way you can chat with Laura and Susan to get your perfect fit. ❤️ After i no longer needed the lymphatic bandages, my sister took that pair because they got to be too big for me and she’s bigger footed than me so we were both happy that the shoes didn’t go to waste. I bought another pair for me, and then i realized my feet changed again so i went up a size. So now if you thought it’s a miracle to find size 12, how do you feel about size 13?? Is that a super- miracle?! And since we never know when shoes will be available in our size and with all the crazy tariffs, i bought two pairs exactly the same and stuck one on top of the closet. If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. So now I’m all set. Get a pair for yourself too!

Customer photo review of Tango Sandal

I hesitated to open the box when the shoes were delivered because I feared yet another disappointment. To my great surprise and relief, these shoes accommodated both my swollen foot and my normal extra wide foot. I held back one star because the soles sometimes leave a black scuff mark on my white kitchen flooring. The marks are easily removed with a light rub from a paper towel or tissue. I'm very satisfied!

I have lymphedema and neuropathy in my left foot. And i wear size 12 women’s. And i had surgery 2x on bone spurs in my left large toe, And i have osteoporosis and my bones break easily, and i snapped a metatarsal bone which didn’t heal properly. All things considered i have a problematic left foot. These shoes! When i called for sizing assistance my fitter was concerned the shoes would be too short. Nah. Plenty roomy. I even got my custom orthotics in there on top of the original foam ones. Shoes are great. Even for my problem feet. Love it.

Customer photo review of PANDERE Ankle Socks with Relaxed Fit Tops - Bundle of 3 pair

Wow! At last I've found the combination of size (10—14!) and comfort that I've been seeking. As the owner of a pair of elephant calves (no, not baby elephants; just big calves. Think "Popeye arms," but lower), I struggle to find socks that will stay up all day. Well that struggle—while very real—is now over. These stretch around me formidable muskels and stay up to boot! Or to shoe, if you prefer. Very comfy and at a great price. Thanks, Pandere. You are truly dere.

Customer photo review of Mary Jane

I love my Pandere Mary Janes! They were already a staple in my shoe rotation, but I recently fractured my ankle, and these are the only shoes I own that will fit my ankle corset! Just one more reason to love Pandere shoes! Also , I live in AK and still wear these in winter! Such a versatile all season shoe!

Customer photo review of Globetrotter - 38 EU or men's 6/women's 8

I have had secondary lymphedema in my right leg for about 10 years following uterine cancer treatment, but only diagnosed about 3 years ago. By then, swelling which had been limited to my ankle and lower calf, had begun in my whole leg so I was prescribed thigh-high compression stockings which help the swelling and make my leg feel better. But recently I had begun to find it more and more difficult to wear my “regular” shoes - typically sneakers in summer and low boots the rest of the year. I live in Maine and am pretty active outside (even at age 75) - so winter footwear is critical. I began looking for shoes designed specifically for people with lymphedema and other foot-affecting conditions, visiting many websites selling wide and/or somewhat adjustable shoes, but none seemed right for many reasons, including the fact that most are just plain ugly. Then I found Pandere. After visiting Pandere’s website many times, reading many reviews, I decided try the Globetrotters, thinking that they could take me from late summer into and through the fall and right into winter. It’s been several weeks since they arrived - I wanted to be sure how I felt about them before submitting a review - and I am liking them more all the time. They were comfortable right out of the box (and definitely NOT ugly; I have received many compliments on their unique style). They are proving to be more adjustable than I expected based on the website description (I particularly appreciate the ability to adjust the right and left shoes differently since my left foot is unaffected by lymphedema). I have fairly wide feet and have always needed a round toe box, but I also have very narrow heels. Far before lymphedema, this made finding good fitting shoes difficult for me. The Globetrotter’s adjustable heel option to the rescue! The Globetrotters are incredibly easy to put on and adjust; during the day, if my affected ankle needs re-adjustment, it takes only seconds to accomplish. Today is a mid-October chilly fall day here in Maine, and I put on a pair of thick socks over my compression stocking. The Globetrotters feel snug and very comfortable. I am looking forward to wearing them all fall and right into the winter, and I highly recommend Pandere shoes for anyone having issues finding good-looking, comfortable, and easily adjustable footwear that meets our "special" needs.

Customer video review of Faster Shipping: Get Priority Shipping and Protection from Loss

I have had five ankle surgeries, so my feet are kind of touchy. I need support all day long. I also have a Morton’s neuroma so that support to the front of my foot is really important and I do get that from these. I do have to have something on my feet all waking hours. These are wonderful because they feel like slippers and I can wear them in the house and out.

The sandals are comfortable and easy to walk in. I had to wear them a couple of times to get them adjusted on the top of my foot. I don't undo the heel strap, I just slip it up when I put them on. I love these sandals.

Store owner replied: Hi Stacy, Our goal is always to help customers find the right fit, which is why we reached out to offer personalized sizing assistance before posting this response here. Since this was your first order, we encouraged you to provide foot measurements so we could better advise you on fit or recommend an alternative. I see that you have uploaded foot tracings here. If you have measurements to go with these tracings that would be helpful and I can tell you if what we offer will or will not fit you. Without measurements, we aren’t able to assess sizing accurately. We’d still love to help if you’d like to send us the measurements we requested! Please reply to my email from March 5, 2025 or reach out at hello@pandereshoes.com, and we’ll do everything we can to find a solution. Best, Laura Oden CEO, Pandere Shoes

Customer photo review of Barista Shoe

I am not very impressed. The tongue is not attached so it makes them hard to put on without the tongue getting all messed up. I live in a wet, cold, rainy area so these shoes don’t work outside. The cloth inserts get wet. Also, they do not keep your feet warm. Hmmmm just not the best shoe.

Was pleasantly surprised by the color. They appeared more silver on the website but are closer to gunmetal which will go better with most things. The fit is true and comfortable.

Customer photo review of Two Step

Please try these if no other shoes work!! I am 30 years old and I have had permanent lymph swelling in my left foot and ankle since grade school. I have cried in many shoe stores. I have not been able to wear athletic shoes for about 6 years because the arch support pressing into my foot, and the squeeze of a normal shoe (if I can even get my foot in the shoe), is painful after only a few minutes of walking. I can wear sandals in the summer with Velcro straps that adjust, but when it’s cold, I have nothing that is comfortable. I had no hope that these would work, because nothing ever works. But they do! And they’re not just bearable, but actually comfortable. I walked the dog last week for over an hour and it didn’t hurt. I can adjust for different sock thickness. My right foot (typical) doesn’t slip because I can tighten it. And these aren’t ugly or medical looking, which is a bonus. Shoes with 2 different lengths don’t work for swelling. Wide sizing sometimes makes regular shoes tolerable for swelling but it’s not enough. What we actually need is VOLUME! And finally someone who understands that is making something like this available. Thank you for the gift of mobility.

So let me share my experience with the shoes and customer service. I originally ordered these shoes in blue and when I received them they were to little for me. So I contacted customer support, and we measured my feet and determined that i needed to go up a size . I also changed the color to all black. By my experience contact customer service for correct sizing. I received my shoes and I can not be happier.

These pictures show the swelling in my ankles that I deal with on a daily basis. I literally could not find closed toe shoes that fit, most shoes dug into the swollen parts of my ankle and HURT. But these Pandere Shoes are AMAZING. Do not hesitate about buying.

Customer photo review of Globetrotter

Glad to have a nice looking pair of shoes to keep my feet dry when I'm wearing my lymphedema bandages! They ran small for me. To be fair, I've basically worn nothing but Crocs for years, so I'm used to having a LOT of room in my shoes. I wear a size 11 women's and even though the agent I chatted with agreed that size would work, my toes touched the end of the shoe even without bandages. (I don't even like the toes of my socks putting any pressure on my toes) Customer service was super nice and immediately shipped out a bigger size for exchange. I wanted to be sure to have lots of toe room, so I went up to a 13 women's, and those fit well. The length on the larger pair worked well with bandages. Although I'm not used to "fitted" shoes, the width (with bandages) is good too. I am looking forward to trying other styles and colors!

Hello Pandere, I have had Lymphedema for more than 30 years in my right leg. It's hugely swollen and has changed my lifestyle in immeasurable ways, the worst change not being able to find sturdy, nice looking, comfortable shoes to wear. I used to be able to wear "normal shoes" on both feet but my right ankle and foot got so swollen all I could wear were Crocs until I couldn't even wear them anymore without going up several sizes larger. I began to search for shoes worried that I would end up wearing those ugly, clunky, monster, velcro sandal type "shoes" and thinking I'd never want anyone to see me in them! I found Pandere and Globetrotters and so far so awesome! The first pair I got were size 9 and my right foot just was too misshapen and large to fit comfortably and I couldn't wear them longer than 3 hours before they hurt and I had to take them off. It seems that I am one of those Lymphedema sufferers that have 2 different sized feet. I ended up getting a size 10 Globetrotter and when I put on the right shoe, size10 it fit like magic! The left shoe is a little too big, but I think if I wear 2 pair of socks I might be able to wear it instead of wearing 2 different sizes. I wish Pandere could sell mixed sizes but if not, I'll figure out a way to buy another 2 pair and mix them myself! You don't know how confident it makes me feel having a shoe that stays on my foot comfortably! I can drive much more safely, walk with more balance and they look cute under my skirts! Thank you Pandere. Peacce n Love, Geri Reeves

Just back from appointment with podiatrist who gave these shoes a thumbs up. They fit well and he complimented the fabric bits by the toes. I am so happy with the look and fit. Thank you Pandere for your design.

The shies are comfortable and well made. It took me a day to get both shoes adjusted to fit me. They are very easy to put on. I really welcomed the assistance in finding my size and the styles that would best fit me. I will be buying a second pair soon.

I love, love, love my Two Steps. I’ve been wearing them on & off for two years now, with months at a time being my only shoe - especially when I travel. They have been all over Canada, through Spain, Portugal, Morocco, and all over Italy. They are fabulous for air travel and medical visits, as they’re so easy to take off & put back on. The photo is my shoe with a dancing horse in Jerez de la Frontera, Spain. :)
