Comfy shoes that look good - I need to wear orthotics and am able to do so with this shoe, which also provides good support. I wear a new pair each year to assure good support.

Great shoe but wearer beware...
First let me say I LOVE these shoes. They're cute as all get-out, and they look great with everything from jeans to capris and shorts. They're quite comfortable, too, as long as I'm not on my feet all day.
Unfortunately, I made the mistake of wearing these before I broke them in. Walking all day at the zoo nearly made me cry from the blisters I got. After a couple wearings, though, they seem to have loosened up and now my feet don't rub so much in them. Still, first time out, I should have worn these with some thick walking socks to minimize the rubbing. Lesson learned.
If you're on your feet all day, definitely look into a cushioned insole. The insoles that come with these shoes provide marginal comfort, but after about 4 hours on your feet, you're going to feel like you're barefoot on concrete. Not fun. Luckily, the insoles are removable so you can insert better ones.
Even with the caveats, though, these are still fabulous looking shoes. The shoes they're replacing I wore nearly every day for almost 4 years. Let's hope these last as long.

Simple.
They look great with khakis and jeans. Comfortable for casual wear (although not the greatest for all day trekking). I'm considering buying other colors. My favorite sneaker, because it balances comfort with some style.

This shoe is awesome. The fit is terrific right out of the box. No breaking in period. The best part is that they are made from recycled materials. Love them!!

Great look.
I'm used to wearing a New Balance 926 which is an extremely supportive shoe. I wanted a sneaker that was softer and more flexible. This shoe is but I guess I require a bit more support. My feet were sore at the end of the day. I love how they look. I'm recovering from planar fasciitis so I hope once recovered that I will be able to wear these shoes.

I love this style of shoe! It's a fun, casual shoe. I also have it in blue and tan. You can never have too many of a good thing.

Love these. Not the most comfortable sneaker ever, but my feet held up through a weekend of walking. Light and super-cute. This is my first pair of Simples, and I'll definitely be buying more.

Terrific -
This is my second pair. Cute, comfortable shoe. No breaking in at all. First pair still feels great, but is looking old. The cream color on the sole turns yellow, and haven't been able to clean it. But, am using the old one for rain shoes.

Comfy, and fast -
I knew exactly what I wanted, they had exactly what I wanted (yay, it wasn't discontinued!) and it came REALLY fast.
(If your feet hurt at work, and you HAVE to wear black shoes, these are excellent. Well, at least my managers are putting up with them for now. I did put black laces in to stand out less.)

My favorite sneakers -
I own three pairs of just the red ones, I love them that much! I have the black, too - but the look doesn't work quite as well in black. So comfortable, right out of the box, easy casual. These have been my favorite sneakers for the last two years!! I originally got my first pair from the Sundance catalog...and then my others from Zappos!

I have worn Ecco shoes for a number of years and thought I would try something different. I have orthotics and they fit perfectly in these shoes.
I will probably get another pair of Simple shoes in the future.

Awesome comfort!
I LOVE this shoe so much I ordered it in 3 different colors. It is so comfortable that I put my 2nd pair on and ended up walking for hours with complete comfort. It does not rub or irritate at all. I would give it TEN stars if I could! I HIGHLY recommend this shoe, and I am a fussy shoe buyer.

Great walking shoe!
I needed a shoe for walking and I needed it fast! They arrived, of course, very quickly - the usual for Zappos! Comfortable shoe for walking - didn't have any 'break-in period' - just comfort. My feeling is that it runs about 1/2 size smaller than the size that's stated.

I have had a red pair of Simple Sugar for several years. I get all sorts of compliments on them even though I have had them for so long. I like the blue just as much - very good looking and very comfortable.

Though this shoe doesn't have the greatest amount of support, it's still pretty comfortable and you can get away with wearing it with nice clothes!

Simply casual!!
I have been looking at these sneakers for years- but with Zappos easy and free shipping/return policy, I finally decided to make the purchase. I have been very pleased- they are cute and clean looking. Not a lot of arch support but otherwise fit and feel good. I may have to get a pair in red!! Thanks Zappos for making shoe shopping for the indecisive so easy.

Love'em -
This is my second pair of Simples, same style, different color. Hmm. I'm noticing that they seem a bit stiffer than my previous ones, but possibly I don't remember that the first pair. Now three years old were stiff at first. Otherwise I'm completely satisfied. Love the style.
Other shoes recommended by reviewer: None. These are in a category unlike others.

 |  | I wrote reviews for both pairs of shoes. :)) By the way, this was my first buying experience with Zappos and I can't say enough about the ease of your website, the quality of the shoes, and the amazing delivery! I have NEVER had a company tell me they have upgraded my delivery and not charge me extra. I received my shoes TWO DAYS after I placed the order. Zappos is my FAVORITE shoe store now, that's for sure!
