I want to tell you a story. I was born with two club feet and while I have done my share of dancing, hiking, and generally having fun with feet that work okay, the many operations left them rather unpretty, a little misshapen and definitely wider/shorter than most feet in proportion to the carrying bodies. Finding shoes that fit and are comfortable is a rarity for me. I search through stores regularly, more often than not
leaving empty handed. I took a chance with Zappos. There were some excellent deals and the size claimed to be what I might need. A box arrived. It said "Packed with Happiness." Inside was my order 4 pairs of shoes and a pair of boots. They not only all fit, they all fit amazingly well. The box may very well have been packed with happiness, but let me tell you, not as much happiness as it was opened with!!! Thank you oh so much. You can't imagine what this is for me. With Special Thanks, Walking on Air, Cathie G.

I was really disappointed by this sweet shoe. I am perplexed how others found this so comfortable. The toe box is really wide, yet shallow, so perhaps it is a very particular fit. I wanted to use these as walking shoes, but felt that they had very little support.
I have found this jacket to be amazing in all aspects. It is warm, thin, has material inside the sleeves to prevent drafts. It zips up and down with ease, even with long nails. \r\nThe only thing you should know is this jacket fits snug, so pick your size wisely.\r\n
Love them! Finally found a brand with style and a nice high heel I can actually wear. Bought the red patent and can wear with dresses, slacks or skirts. These shoes are awesome!
The toe area is a little more narrow then my old trainers. The side mesh is really thin and breathable, so my feet are cold when it\'s cold outside. They fit fine. It\'s a pair of shoes, nothing that special.

Love these boots! They are so comfortable, they fit like a glove, or a big sock! And they are so versatile, too. Today I wore them with an above-the-knee skirt and some tights; I've also worn them with jeans and even dresspants. I've worn them with the pants legs tucked in and worn them with the pants legs over the boots; either way they look great. I get compliments on them every time I wear them (which has been at least once a week since they are so versatile). I read a few reviews that said that they felt these boots ran too small. I'm a size 12 and they felt true to size. My feet are a little narrower than most, however, so it is possible that these may run a little on the narrow side. The only complaint I can think of is that I don't think there is much arch support; this is something that could easily be fixed, however, by wearing insoles. Hope this review is helpful. In closing I just wanted to say that I am overall very pleased with these boots. So pleased in fact that I would buy them in other colors if available.

Disappointing. For the price, I thought these shoes would be soft and flexible, but both uppers and soles, despite the sporty look, were quite stiff. Felt like I'd walk out of them with each step. Returned 'em.
Zappos has done it again with their lightning fast shipping and amazing selection! I can certainly understand other reviewers saying that the medium width of these boots is way too narrow, but that\'s exactly what I love about them. My feet are super narrow and I almost always have to wear two pairs of socks, but not with these boots. I\'ve been wearing them the past two hours and they fit me like a glove. I also took a gamble and ordered the 7.5 size even though I usually take an 8. I wouldn\'t say there\'s any arch support, but I think they\'re still quite comfortable, and hope that I still feel that way as I continue to break them in. So far, my only complaint is that they put in the zippers on the sides since they\'re totally unnecessary, what with the laces and all. Still, a great brand, a very stylish boot, and so long as they fit me, well worth the cost.

I absolutely love these boots! I got them and I fell in love. They are so comfortable and they look great on. Perfect for mini skirts, pants, etc. They are chic looking and they complement any outfit! I would recommend this boot to everyone!
Just got my boots. They came real fast! Thanks. Fit great, real comfortable; wore them all day at work today. Great color. Made extremely well. But this is my 3rd pair of Fryes. They fit true to size. I'd buy another pair in a minute. Thanks Zappos for great service again!
Nike Air Pegasus+ 26 GTX 2009-11-24 20:52:53 Reviewer:Ron D from Bloomington, IN Overall Rating:
Okay shoes. I ran a 20 mile trail training run in them, up and down Indiana hills after a rain. They are sturdy. Not quite as funky with the arch support and pronation control as the road Pegasus 26 (thankfully). They took the stones and rocks quite easily. But they are a bit chunky as many trail shoes. After 20 miles I felt the trail in my body. The Gore-Tex kept my feet dry. One toe took quite a banging in them.
