These are exactly what you would expect from Born. Comfort, support, sturdy, and a good clean look. Very comfortable right out of the box. I am so pleased with this shoe. I should have ordered these initially. This was the third walking shoe I ordered this time around and Zappos was super quick with all the shipments and super quick with all the credits. Zappos makes online shoe shopping more fun than doing it in person!

Comfy...but - I purchased these for a trip to Paris. I also took the Dansko Professional clog. This shoe looks sturdy, but feels almost like a slipper when you are wearing it. That normally would be fine, but walking 5+ miles in Paris, you don't want to be wearing a slipper. Also, I could feel everything through the sole, pebbles, whatever.

Wow - I have a short wide foot that tends to be hard to fit. I took a chance on these because of the Zappos’ return policy. It fit me like a glove and I was able to wear it all day at work without a problem. I will buy another pair because of the fit and comfort. Thank you Zappos for a wonderful first time online shoe buying experience.

Great shoes! I stand on a concrete floor all day and my feet feel great at the end of the day. Just what I was looking for.

Love these shoes - I have been a nurse in the ER for many years and recently moved to a position where I can wear normal clothes. I bought these shoes for jeans and slacks. They look great with both. I have wide feet and they are comfortable with normal socks. I would not be able to wear thick socks.

A very nice shoe but won't take orthotics. This shoe is nice. It looks great, is light, has buttery soft leather and nice padding, but it's got welted construction meaning that the insole cannot be removed and I can't wear them because I use orthotics. Oh well. I'll keep looking.

Love these shoes; I stand at work 8-12 hours each day - I LOVE the style, I have a hard to find size; 7.5 EE.; this is a great shoe for standing all day; I work in retail and stand for 8 to 12 hours each day. The fit was right on. It is comfortable to stand in and looks great with dress pants or jeans. The first day I wore them to work one of my co-workers had to order a pair for herself. Zappos service was soo cool...I got them the next day...how fun...I look forward to purchasing more shoes from Zappos and trying different styles of Born.

Great shoe - I recently purchased these shoes and they are great. They run true to size, and they are so comfortable. I work on my feet 8 hours a day and my feet feel great at the end of the day.

Born's Delgado - I'm experiencing trouble with the arch of a foot and tie shoes were recommended by my chiropractor to stabilize the foot. The fit is the best for my narrow heels. I work in a corporate office and the shoes have a business-like appearance. However, both soles squeak. Normally I would return shoes with this problem but necessity and the benefit outweighs the return of my money for this quality defect.

I purchased my Ultra Uggs about a month ago, I was a little nervous about the sizing. I take a 9.5 so I ordered a 9, they were a little uncomfortable for the first 2 days and by the 3rd day they fit perfectly.

Very comfortable - It's reasonably attractive in a granola sort of way, but not super cute. I have a wide foot and it feels fantastic.

Great Shoes - These shoes are very comfortable and a great jean shoe. The shoe does not allow for an orthotic much. I did use a Dr Scholl arch support in mine, but I am a person who has to have extra arch supports all the time. When I wear them, I forget I have them on and that is a rare and special shoe that delivers me that kind of comfort. They are a 10- all the way. And with Zappos service- there is no way you will go wrong with these.

Born Delgado - This is my second pair of Born shoes, and I love them. They are well made and give great support to my foot. I wish Born made more styles in wide width.

Too soft - I like the look of this shoe, and have had a hard time finding simple oxfords like this. So I am keeping it. But I needed to get orthotic inserts because I felt this shoe gives me no support. It feels wide and the leather is very soft -- which is comfy on the skin, but leaves me feeling wobbly.

Great shoe! I was looking for something similar to the Dr. Marten’s and these are similar in look but better in comfort, they are much softer than the doc's. Definitely a good choice.

Great for work. I'm on my feet all day and walk into some shady areas at time, heels won't do.

This is an amazing shoe, one of the more comfortable Borns available today. I wear orthotics and they fit in perfect. I tried many styles, with this shoe on one foot, and another on the other foot, by far this shoe WON!!!

Sturdy, sensible, ultra comfy. Reminiscent of the shoes I was forced to wear in elementary school because of my square-ish feet with high instep - only those Stride Rite oxfords were definitely not cool at the time. Now I'm grown up -- have sworn off pointed toes and high heels and surrendered to a C/D width with roomy toe box. These shoes are my new best friends. Comfortable with socks from the first step. I love them!

Great Fit! The shoe is very comfortable! It looks like a well made leather shoe, not a sneaker. There are no seams around the toe box so there is no rubbing on any toes. It is true to size. I need a wide and it fits perfectly!
