Perfect for my nursing school clinicals. Comfortable, a little lighter weight than I like, no blisters, no break-in needed. If you have high arches you may need an insert or another shoe. These shoes are utilitarian, comfortable, not cute, and a great deal.

These shoes felt about half a size too small and fairly narrow. They are also more food service shoes than athletic shoes.

I love these shoes! I'm taking classes in healthcare that require all-white, all-leather shoes. There are no perforations on top like some sneakers. It also has a skid-resistant sole. As far as fit, I have narrow ankles & slightly wider front. Most of the time, I wear medium-width shoes. But since I'll wear these every day, I ordered the wide width, which was perfect. I can tighten the laces around my narrow ankles. Arch support is moderate, which works well for me, too, since my arches are low-moderate. Great shoes! I may order another pair.

Very satisfied with this purchase. Went to seek advice from my Podiatrist and he recommended this website. This was my first purchase from Zappos and is very pleased with the prompt shipping and also the fact that it was free. Living in the middle of the ocean and with limited choices I was glad to know that Zappos is there with quality products and quick shipping. Thank you!

When it comes to buying anything w/ a size online, I always get nervous. Is it going to fit? Will they let me return it if it doesn't? But, recently, my husband bought a pair of shoes from Zappos and loved them so much I thought I'd give it a try. I mean, what did I have to lose? If they didn't work, I could return them at any time, postage paid! As it turned out, I shouldn't have worried. These shoes exceeded my expectations in every way. They're cute, comfortable, true to size and width, and I feel like I'm getting the optimal support I want during my workouts. I'd highly recommend these shoes to anyone and I'd also recommend Zappos as a whole. Great shoes, great site. Thanks Zappos!

These shoes were not true to size (length). I ordered them in an 8 1/2 which I've worn for years. Other NB styles in this size fit just fine- I could barely get my foot into this shoe. I would suggest ordering at least a 1/2 size larger than usual.
