Does anyone else have the problem where the underside of the buckle digs into the top of your foot? I love The way my Vivier shoes look, but they are sometimes painful to wear. Does anyone else experienced this problem, and if so have you found any fixes?

My patent shoes definitely "dig in," but it's not from the buckle; it's the sides, but they're so new that it's expected. My suede gommettes never dig in. Are your shoes new? My SA told me the toe box will definitely stretch out. Hopefully the buckle will stop digging into your feet then. You should try walking around in them with athletic socks on to stretch them out.

I'm here right now. Almost all smaller sizes are gone. They also put their shoes for their client aside. I got a really nice pink shoe on floor and asked an SA to locate the other one for me. Five minutes later another SA came and took that shoe from me saying she has already reserved this pair for someone else. This is somewhat frustrating. If they will just put aside the nice ones for their specific clients, what is the point of inviting people to go for the sale?

Same thing here and I took it to the cobbler to stretch, and it's so much more comfortable now.

Yes, they are new and it's so disappointing as they're beautiful – I think the style is called the belle de nuit, very classic with a small heel. My gommettes never give me this problem and neither do my chips :-(

Intially I found RV shoes very comfortable but the last few pairs
that I have purchased, I found a problem as well with digging into my
foot. I haven't found a solutution except not to wear them for more than
a few hours.. If anyone has any tips,it sure would be appreciated

I use a leather half insole for the top of the shoe, so my feet don't fully slip in and my toes have more space.

Also, I didn't went half a size smaller. The 36.5 turned out to be too small, so I went back to my usual 37.
