I have had feet problems ever since I served in Vietnam. These shoes fit great and are extremely comfortable. Highly recommend them along with P.W. Minor brand.

I actually purchased three pairs of shoes with the hope of finding one I could take on a trip to Disneyland. Although I'm female, I know men's shoes run wider, and I have a very wide foot, along with Diabetes and other ailments. These shoes were fantastic! They got me through 4 and 1/2 days of walking and I had a great time. Every day I took a spare pair of shoes to change into if needed, but never had to. I can't rave enough. These shoes are wide enough for my fat feet (I got 6E) and very roomy in the toes. I guess now I have to order them in black, too. Not too pretty for ladies, but so worth not having pain and being able to walk!

Love these shoes! A bit pricey, but they fit well and are comfortable. I wish these were more stylish, maybe with some color, but I'll choose comfort at this point. I wear a very wide small shoe, and these fit well. Zappos rocks!

My husband had a stroke and needed a pair of sneakers that would accomodate a prosthetic. The physical therapist suggested this site and I had great luck. The sneakers were attractive; his correct size was available in wide and even said on the description "can accommodate a prosthetic". I ordered them and they fit perfectly. I didn't have to waste precious time shopping from store to store. It was a great shopping experience! I'd do it again.

Great service from Zappos. The Drew Thunder in black are very well made and extremely comfortable. Great to wear to work in casual dress and great to take a 1-2 mile walk at lunch.

Sometime ago I ordered Drew Thunder. They sounded so good I actual bought two pair. They felt OK at first and so I wore them outdoors and then could not return them. I have large custom orthodics so I removed the inserts to insert my orthodics. After about a week my ankles started really hurting. I could not find a problem with my orthodics and so I keep looking. The DREW shoes have a very uneven bottom that twists your ankle when you wear them. On one pair the left front toe region was 3/8 inch lower than the rest of the shoe sole. They are both very uneven but different so there is no way to work with them. They are completely useless and I would strongly urge anyone who values their feet and ankles to avoid DREW. They make up for being awful by also being a bit expensive.

Very comfortable but support did not last! Loved these shoes when I received them but after wearing every day to work after 30 days the support was gone.

Drew Thunder is the best shoe I have found for my plantar fasciitis problems. I have tried just about every brand with no real satisfaction. They feel great even after walking and standing all day teaching school. Thank you so much. I will be buying more at Zappos. 24 hours and they were at my door!!

Drew Thunder - I have a wide foot and these are the first shoes that felt comfortable from day 1 and still feel that way 3 months later. Best shoe I ever bought.

Love the Drew shoe! Most comfortable shoes my husband has ever worn and he has had surgeries on both of his feet! Does not even need to wear orthotics with these shoes!!! He cannot rave enough about the comfort of these shoes! From the moment they were taken out of the box and put onto his feet they were comfortable. Does not even have to break them in! He is on his feet all day long and loves these shoes!

Great comfortable shoe!! I ordered this shoe for the first time based on the description and customer comments. I wear orthodics, have a very wide foot (12 4E) and generally have difficulty finding shoes that will accommodate my orthodics comfortably. These shoes have a deep footbed and can easily handle the orthodics. They were very comfortable from the start.

If You're Interested in This Shoe - I've had this shoe for a week and am pleased with it but I think anyone who's considering buying it should be aware that it's not an athletic shoe or even a walking shoe; it's a work shoe well-designed for standing in on hard floors. It seems very sturdy and well-made but it's quite heavy and probably on the warm side as well. If that's what you're looking for it's a good choice. Also, Zappos got this to me in about twenty-four hours.

A great work shoe! I work as a nurse and this shoe is great if you are on your feet for long periods of time. They are lightweight and easy on your feet. Having a choice in liners is a great feature.

Most Comfy Shoe Ever! I was hesitant to buy these shoes. I am diabetic and suffer from diabetic neuropathy. My neuropathy is not severe, but my feet always hurt. I can't walk barefoot without feeling pain. Anyway, I ordered these in hopes of finding a comfortable walking sneaker that looked good. I read the reviews, but wasn’t crazy about the looks. It’s still quite too "orthopedic" looking for my tastes. I decided to bite the bullet and choose function over style. When I got these I could not believe how comfy these were. I wore them for about a week and it was like walking on air. The true test came on my recent vacation to Orlando. We spent 5 days in theme parks and my feet felt great every day. Last year when we did the parks my dogs were barking like crazy every day. I cannot say enough wonderful things about these shoes. Overall fit is great for my chubby wide feet. Again, great shoe that is well worth the price!!!

Great shoe - These shoes are comfortable but maybe need a bit more padding on top. They seem to rub a little on the top. Nothing serious just a nuisance.

THESE SHOES ARE KEEPERS! Eureka! Finally found a comfy pair of shoes that are wide enough for my Fred Flintstone feet! They are also loaded with "cush." They make me so happy that I want to dance! I think that I'll dance right now! They are worth every penny. My wife has these in the ladies model, too. She is responsible for my happy feet, so I'll repay her by doing the dishes forever! Look out bubbles, here I come!

Shoes for the Flintstone feet - I have an extremely hard time finding shoes that will fit my size 14 6E feet and support my 350 pound frame. These are long enough and give me plenty of room to wiggle my toes. They have lots of cushion and I would have ordered a second pair if they had it in stock. I love these shoes!!!

Shoe Review - Shoe was narrower than I expected. Shoe laces could have been longer. Too much white (or black), needs some color to break it up.

The best shoe I’ve ever had. I’ve wore extra depth shoes for over 30 years and use orthotics in my shoes. Since I started to wear the Drew Thunder tennis shoes I haven’t had to wear my orthotics and the Drew Thunder is the most comfortable shoe I’ve ever had.
