Very uncomfortable shoe - Although this slide shoe looked very comfortable in the photo, and although most slide shoes are quite comfortable, I must say that this one is probably one of the most uncomfortable shoes I have ever tried on in my life!! I couldn't believe it. I walked around my house wearing them for about an hour trying to break them in, which was torture, and finally realized there was no hope. They were true to size and width, but were very, very hard, with absolutely no give.

The shoe is extremely comfortable; put it on and wore it to work all day. This is my first time ordering and the service from Zappos was wonderful. I placed the order on Sat. before Labor Day and the shoes arrived on Tuesday.

COMFY - My second pair of David Tate shoes. This one has a narrow toe and since your foot doesn't slide all the way forward like a round toe, I exchanged it for a 1/2 size larger and it is perfect. This is a slide that doesn't look frumpy. Very stylish. I'm a 10N and have searched everywhere in stores for shoes. When I tell the salesclerks my size they usually just shake their heads no. Zappos to the rescue!! I took a tip from my daughter who told me to order several different style/brands from Zappos. I did and of the probably nine pair I ordered I had to exchange two and I ended up with six pair. I couldn't be happier. The free shipping and return is what convinced me to shop Zappos and quit running from town to town wasting gas and time looking for narrow shoes.

Like a slipper - This shoe is very comfortable, feels like I'm wearing a slipper. Unfortunately it also looks like a slipper, but for days at the office, I don't mind sacrificing style for comfort. On the review of others, I ordered a half size larger which worked well.

Comfort and Style! I was pleased to see how stylish the shoes look. Pictures can be deceiving! And they are super comfortable. I have problems with my feet and require super soft leather. These shoes are perfect!

This shoe is very comfortable. By having a very wide foot and a high instep the split at the top of the shoe looks as if it is pinching your foot. Therefore it does not look great, but it feels fine. But it fits true to size. I actually wear a 6 1/2 EEE, but I cannot find a stylish shoe in that size. Therefore, I usually buy 7, 7 1/2 EE.

Smart Looking - This is my 5th David Tate Shoe and each one I purchase is better than the other. The fit and comfort are unbelievable. I bought this for work, usually I wear flat shoes but want a little hell for height. I also have a wide foot and high arch so a lot of styles don't fit me. The David Tate line is a true wide width. Other brands they say wide but are still narrow. Also the leather on David Tate shoes are all soft, the lining is nice and the minute you put them on it feels as if you owned them for a while they are so comfortable.

David Tate Melody Shoe - Excellent style, fit and comfort! I love this shoe and can wear it all day without any discomfort. I have a fairly narrow foot and this shoe seems designed for a narrower foot.

David Tate's Melody - What a wonderful shoe! For the first time in years I found a shoe that I could put on and immediately wear all day without any discomfort. I am so happy that a friend told me about Zappos. The service is great: fast and free. What more can you ask for? Thanks.

Ordering through Zappos - I have an exceptionally narrow foot and fortunately have found several of my size at Zappos. They carry top brand shoes, as well offer ease in ordering and very fast delivery. Most department stores do not carry my size and I'm thankful Zappos carries such a wide variety of styles.

Finally a narrow shoe that really fits! Great looking shoe and quite comfortable. I was really surprised it fit so well, especially on my narrow foot. Ordered them yesterday, arrived mid day today. Now that is real service.

Great comfort but runs small! I ordered this shoe to go with a beautiful new outfit my husband got me for Christmas. I typically wear a 4M. When the shoe came I could not believe my foot was hanging over the back. I sent that size back and ordered the 41/2; it fits great. And the shoe is gorgeous; it is perfect with my new knit suit. The first day I wore the shoe I wore them all day at the mall.

Love these shoes appearance - Overall: The shoe looks very classy. Comfort: The shoe up near the top of the toes tends to rub a bit. I’m hoping it will stretch after wearing it a while. Other than that it fits well. Look:I bought the shoe cause of its appearance. Actually I bought it in two colors. Cause I loved the way it looked. It looks like u are wearing a boot without that cumbersome feeling around your calf.

A little disappointing - I read all the other reviews raving about the comfort of this shoe, so I kept hoping they would "break in" if I kept wearing them. So far, however, they continue to rub my toes uncomfortably if I wear them barefoot. I just tried them with thin socks and the rubbing of the sock against the insole made such a loud squeak that I took them off halfway down the hall (I'm at work) and walked back to my office carrying them in my hand. It's a very nice looking shoe, so I'll keep at it.

Ouch! I have narrow feet and ordered the narrow size. The shoes felt fine trying them on at home and even walking around a little. I wore them to work and had cuts on my feet from the top digging in. Must be from how it is shaped on top. I will never wear them again. What a waste!

David Tate Melody - Classy looking casual shoe great for business casual wear. The elongated toe makes your foot look longer. I ordered my usual size 6 1/2 W and the shoe fits a little tight across the top of the toes and loose around the instep. Comfortable enough for a moderate amount of walking/standing.
