This shoe is fun, and cute and comfy. It required no breaking in time, and is always commented on. (I got the black multi which is a blue chevron pattern.)

Casual, cute, and versatile.
These are cute and comfortable casual shoes that I wear with jeans, shorts, and khakis. I purchased the "rabbit" color because they look like denim. The width of the shoe feels a bit wider than marked because they fit my feet (wider at the base of the toes due to minor bunions) comfortably. I usually have to wait for shoes to stretch out a bit for them to be truly comfortable, but not so with these. I wear them with clean, bare feet and they seem to "breathe" well.

Lots of compliments!
I have had a lot of compliments on these skimmers that I purchased in black. Initially for the first few hours they were uncomfortable in the toe box. After wearing them for a whole day they loosed up, but the tow area is still a little too short. I continue to wear them, they do not hurt my feet at all, they just feel a little cramped.

Great Sneaker Alternative -
Very comfortable shoe from day one - especially for a slightly wider foot. Good cushioning too.

They are cute, but are wider than anticipated. The actual fit is fine, but my feet look like boats!

Cute shoes -
I think these shoes are adorable. However, they're not terribly comfortable for me. I've worn Simple sneaks a long time ago and they were AMAZING in the comfort arena, but these... not so much. There isn’t any arch support (which can be easily remedied if it's a bigger deal), but my deal is with my right foot, which is about a 1/2 size larger than my left. I know for a fact that if I sized up, my left foot would be flopping out with every step, so I sized down and now my right foot is crammed into the front. It's gotten substantially more tolerable after several weeks of wear, but it's still an issue that plagues me.

Cute and mostly comfy shoes for the price -
These shoes need a little more arch support for me. The shoes were much more comfortable after I put an additional insole with better arch support in. Overall well worth the price.

These shoes are great to wear with jeans or casual work clothes. I walk to work and they have been really comfortable. Didn't really need to be broken in.

I really like this sneaker-shoe. The fit is great, but I do wish the sole was more flexible. I usually get terrible blisters from new shoes, but only got slight "rubs" from these.

CUTE BUT NO CIGAR -
I bought these shoes strictly for the look--I thought they would be fun for summer and you don't often see polka-dotted shoes. I have not been disappointed in that regard. They feel a little wide and are not great for long walks but then, I did not expect them to be. I have noticed people looking at them so I think other people find them amusing too. I want to add that this was the first time I have used Zappos and even more than the shoes, the Zappos service is terrific.

Rubs heels... but so cute!
I typically don't have a problem with one foot being bigger than the other; this is the first pair of shoes I've owned in which this is a noticeable problem. I can only wear these shoes for a few hours before my left heel starts to tear up and blister. I did try a 1/2 size bigger, but my heels slipped out too much. But they are otherwise comfortable and ADORABLE.

Cutest shoe and eco friendly!!
I love these shoes! The fit is great and the retro look can't be beat. I have a hard time finding shoes and these are so great I ordered the rabbit and the black. The price makes this easy to do! And the whole eco friendly thing makes these a guilt free purchase. I recommend them highly!

I love these shoes! I want to wear them everyday, but need to give them a breather! I plan to order another pair!! Did need to buy some heel inserts so they wouldn't slide though, but now they are Perfect!

V.V.V Cute!
I ordered these shoes on the 4th of July and I received them on Monday, the 7th. I love the fast shipping by Zappos. I ordered the green polka dots. I love the funky pattern. I wear a 10 and it does feel a little large for me. My heels keep slipping out of them...but I'm adding heal inserts and I think they will be fine.

This was the first flat that didn't make my heel blister when I wore it without socks. It's a little shorter and wider that other flats, but I still ordered my usual size and they fit fine. I would definitely buy another pair since there was no real break in time. I'm excited to support simple's recycled/organic line that doesn't look like it's made out of a burlap sack.

Very cute & comfy -
I have wide feet, so I chose these since a number of reviews said they run wide. They were a little snug at first and the heel seemed tight - I even considered sending them back. But I wore them around the house for about 15 minutes and they loosened right up. Now I love them! Very well made and it's a bonus that they are environment friendly.

Oh so cute!!
I saw these in a magazine and knew I had to have them - and they are the cutest!!! I got the green polka dot ones and they are quite comfortable. I usually wear a 7 but got a 7.5 and they fit great! Comfortable and cute - did I mention they are cute? I ordered them at about 8P on a Wednesday and they arrived by Friday - I’m not sure how Zappos can get these to me so fast with free shipping but I’m not complaining! They fit much like a "Keds" tennis shoe so I’m not going for a jog in them but running errands, casual day at the office that kind of thing they are perfect for so don't hesitate - put them in your cart and check out!!!

Wide enough to part with -
Big disappointment. I sometimes wear 7.5 in dress shoes and always 8 in sneakers, boots, etc. and the 7.5 Carousel was on the snug side, considering these sneaker-ballets should fit somewhere in the middle. The real problem was that they are just too wide. In fact, even with the snug toe, they were slipping off. You know the old saying, 'swimming in your shoes'? Also, for a person with high-arches, I can see how these shoes, despite the cushy padding would eventually ruin my arches and eventually cause back pain. I could feel the 1/2" difference in my natural arch and where they lay on the foot bed.
They seem well made though, and are green and all...but they are not made well for my feet. Too bad, they are otherwise adorable.

Great shoe, eco-friendly -
These shoes are super cute and very comfortable. I actually got them as work shoes, but have found myself wearing them more often. The only thing is that they run a little big, so I would consider at least getting a 1/2 size smaller than your usual size.

These shoes are both cute and very comfy. I find myself slipping into them quite often. The one thing is they seemed to run a little larger than usual. I often take an 8.5 but they were swimming on me; size 8 was about right for me.

While this shoe runs a little wide, it is worth it because it's very comfortable and stylish. And good for the environment.

Very cute!
I love these shoes. I ordered them not sure what I'd think and loved them. They are a bit short in the toe area, but my feet are a size 5 & narrow so I think that helped with keeping them on my feet, since as many of the other reviews say, these are a bit wide. Narrow-footed folks don't be deterred: we can wear them too & they are super comfortable & useful.

Cute and casual -
These are great summer shoes in that they go with everything and are pretty comfortable. I have foot issues and would not say they are overly supportive. The good news is that orthotics will fit inside. The first time I wore them they rubbed a little against my heel, but after that they were fine.

 |  | Okay, color me simply amazed. I only placed this order on Saturday, and I already have the shoes in my hands (and for no extra delivery charge)! Better yet, the shoes fit like a dream-the exact right size, perfect fit, and comfortable. Even high end department stores couldn't fit me, but you could and you did. (Small narrow feet seems to be a challenge for retailers.) Being a bit of a cynic (and needing these shoes for a wedding I'm going to on Friday), I figured the shoes wouldn't arrive until just before I had to go. But they were in today. You do nothing to aid and abet my sour attitude, but I'm okay with that. Color me a steady customer from this point onward. Thanks. (Everyone else in my office already swears by you, so you have a whole contingent of fans here.)
