Product Insights
The Lauren Ralph Lauren Lanette Leather Pumps offer a pointed-toe silhouette with a 2.75-inch heel that actually measures about 3 inches. The leather upper and sheep-leather lining stretch with wear, but the narrow toe box may require a break-in period. While 72% of reviewers find length true-to-size and 91% find width true-to-size, the pointed toe runs narrow, especially compared to other LRL pumps. The cushioned leather insole provides minimal arch support, making these best for short-duration wear and not extended standing or walking. Priced at 185 CAD, it undercuts Sam Edelman by about $10 and runs about $20 above Nine West, offering leather construction and a gold logo. The outsole has a rubber toe insert for some grip, but the rest is smooth. Professional cleaning is required for the leather upper.

Deep Research
How it stacks up to similar pumps
- Priced similarly to Sam Edelman's Hazel pump and roughly $20–$40 above many Nine West dress styles, the Lanette uses its genuine leather upper and subtle gold logo to compete as a more polished, heritage-brand alternative within the same accessible contemporary tier.
Fit and sizing across different foot shapes
- The Lanette's pointed toe creates a sleek, elongated line but means the toe box runs narrow by design; multiple reviewers who sized up a half or full size found the shoe got longer without meaningful added width at the toes, so the best approach for a medium foot is to stay with your usual size and accept a brief break-in period, while wide-footed wearers may need to look elsewhere or accept a tight fit.
- Across 241 Zappos reviews, 72% of wearers reported the Lanette fits true to size in length, providing a strong baseline expectation that your usual dress pump size is likely correct unless you have a wider foot.
- Despite the pointed toe, 91% of reviewers indicated the shoe felt true to width overall, which suggests the midfoot and heel are standard medium width — the snugness is concentrated in the toe box, not the rest of the shoe.
- The genuine leather upper does stretch with wear — one reviewer noted visible widening after a single day of indoor sock-wearing on carpet, and a Zappos customer service rep who owns the Lanette confirmed that the leather gives enough to make a true-to-size purchase comfortable after breaking in.
- Reviewers with wider feet often recommend ordering a half size up — one wearer with a size 8 found the 8.5 too big but the 8 eventually fit perfectly after stretching, confirming that a half-size increase works best for genuinely wide feet, while medium widths should stick to their usual number.
- The product description cites a 2.75-inch heel, but a reviewer with a tape measure recorded a full 3 inches, which slightly increases the arch pitch and may subtly affect how much toe-room pressure you feel in the pointed toe box — worth noting for anyone sensitive to heel height or forefoot pressure.
- A buyer who has worn Ralph Lauren pumps for years noted the Lanette is the one model that breaks the brand's usual consistent sizing, running narrower than other LRL heels — so if you've reliably worn a standard size in the brand before, the Lanette may feel snugger and require a half-size adjustment or break-in prep.
Inside the pump: lining and footbed
- The lining is 100% sheep leather — thinner and naturally softer than the cow or pigskin linings common in pumps at this price, it breathes to keep feet cooler and gradually conforms to foot contours for a broken-in, personalized fit that makes barefoot wear more comfortable.

Q&A
3 answered- How comfortable are these pumps for standing or walking for several hours? Does the cushioned leather insole provide adequate arch support?
- The cushioned leather insole provides some comfort, but like most classic pumps, arch support is minimal. They may be comfortable for short periods but are not ideal for extended standing or walking. For all-day wear, consider adding an arch support insert.
- How does the leather upper hold up to scuffs and general wear? Is the rubber insert at the toe sufficient to prevent slipping on smooth floors?
- Genuine leather can develop scuffs with wear, but these can often be minimized with proper care and polishing. The rubber insert at the toe provides some traction on smooth floors, though the rest of the outsole is smooth, so caution is still advised on very slippery surfaces.
- How should the genuine leather upper be cleaned and conditioned to maintain its appearance?
- The genuine leather upper should be cleaned professionally only. The care instructions specify 'Professionally clean' and 'Cleaning by a leather specialist only'. At-home cleaning is not recommended as it may damage the leather.
