Qupid Shoes: What to Know Before You Buy
Qupid is a women's shoe brand that turns current trends into affordable pairs: Chelsea booties, platform heels, sandals and sneakers in many colors. Here is what the shoes are like, how they fit and who they make sense for.
What the range covers
Booties are a big part of the line. The Chelsea ankle boots have elastic side panels for pulling on, a rounded toe and a low stacked or block heel, and go with jeans and dresses through fall and winter.
For evenings there are heels with bold details, such as red platform pumps with a wide buckled ankle strap. Many styles come in several colors and finishes, from faux suede to patent.
Who they suit
- Trend shoppers who want a new look each season without a big outlay.
- Occasion wearers who need a bold heel for a few nights out.
- Anyone who wants easy booties to pull on with jeans.
- Less suited to people who stand all day or prefer real leather.
Comfort
The low-heeled booties are the easiest to wear for hours. High heels are made for shorter stretches; a platform under the toe lowers the real angle of the heel, and an ankle strap stops the foot sliding forward. A cushioned insole makes a noticeable difference in budget shoes.
