Amazon.com Product Description
Leave it to Donald Pliner to create a sandal that looks as good as it feels. The Elka is fashioned from form-fitting elasticized fabric for superior comfort in an ultra-versatile pump profile. Its chicly pointed toe looks great peeking out from underneath your ankle-skimming flowing skirts and menswear-inspired wide-leg slacks, while a mid-height kitten heel gives flattering lift to your figure.

From the Manufacturer
When the feet are uncomfortable, so is the mind and body. With these words, Donald J Pliner has committed his life to the quality and perfection of an innovative line of shoes. A life-long and family tradition is continued with his luxuriously comfortable footwear that never compromises creativity or fashion. Visionary designer Donald J Pliner launched his line of luxury footwear and accessories in 1989, and immediately established a reputation for innovative design and high style for both men and women. Pioneering new materials, such as stretchable micro-fibers, he also brought unprecedented comfort, flexibility, and lightness to footwear. Born into a Chicago-based family shoe business, life at DJP is also a family affair. Creative director Lisa Pliner, Donald's wife and frequent model for the innovative ad campaigns, works side-by-side with him to develop each new collection, inserting her artist's vision into the designs, colors and textures. And the Pliner's pure white Maltese, BabyDoll, is ever present, inspiring her own clothing line for the past three years. Today this global brand, manufactured in both Italy and Spain, has established an almost cult following among people who were originally attracted by the fashion-forward style, but return again and again for the comfort and craftsmanship.

Customer Reviews

Donald J Pliner Elka Pump
Gorgeous shoe! Stylish and sophisticated, it makes the foot look slim and sleek. The shoe is quite comfortable except where the straps criss cross on the upper foot, it is a little snug. Great shoes to wear with dress slacks or jeans.

Elka Review
I ordered this in 6-1/2 because I usually wear that in other brands, however, in another Donald Pliner style I had a 7 at home. The 6-1/2 was just a little too snug due to the pointed toe area so I ended up going the 7. I was worried about stretching and becoming sloppy but after wearing them 3 hours the first time I am so glad I went the 7. They are very classy looking and comfortable! Once you get into Donald Pliner's shoes, you get hooked on the comfort!

Classic Elegance
Beautiful shoe with quality in keeping with Donald Pliner's line. Classic, timeless in design. Can transition from Jeans to Black Tie.
