Great Shoes! My son loves his new shoes! I usually stick with this brand because my boys have wide feet. They look really nice too!

Good product - The only complaint I have is that the laces were so slick they came untied all the time, even double knotted. I had to go by replacement laces.

Lasted less than 2 months - They were very comfortable, but they started to tear in the toe area where the mesh connects to the leather. We buy Stride Rite all the time, but this is the first time they wore out before growing out.

Excellent Fit, Needs Different Laces - Excellent fit, wide enough for my son, good quality. Easy to put on. The one problem is the laces, which must be double-tied or they come untied in a few minutes. Another solution would be to replace the ties. Good looking, goes with most clothes.

Be Careful on Sizin - I ordered this shoe in a youth 4W based on the Stride Rite webpage "Size Calculator" that you print out and measure you child's foot. The calculator said my son needed a 3.5 M but I knew better and ordered a 4W. It was still too short and too narrow. I had to return it, but Zappos is GREAT about returns, it d/n come in 4.5W so I had to go to a New Balance 4.5XW and we'll see how that works when it comes tomorrow.

Classy, cute & comfortable. I bought these in red (yum!) & black. Size 12W (but they make my feet look smaller). Instant chic-ness. No break-in period. Ros Hommersons tend to be the shoes I KEEP for years. They look sharp. They feel good. People always ask: Where'd you GET those?

Comfortable "Flat" Shoe - Not a totally flat shoe, the small heel dresses it up a bit. Very comfortable, good looking, & they didn't gap on my medium-to-narrow width foot like many flats do. My only complaint about this shoe, & other Ros Hommerson shoes, is that the heel is plastic, making the shoe a bit slippery on polished floors. Still, worth the price even if I have to have the heels changed.

Great Shoe - Comfortable and stylish - I bought these shoes for my 15 yr. old daughter who wears a size 11. She wears these to school many days and finds them very comfortable and true to size. They are light weight and the holes in the design provide for great air circulation. My daughter is very tall and was happy to find a dressy/casual shoe that also had a low heel. The other nice feature with this shoe is that the toe area is not too narrow. It's perfect for a medium size foot. Many times, these types of shoes become too narrow at the foot and the snug fit is too tight. I recommend this shoe very highly.

Getting what you pay for - I chose this shoe because it was a little less expensive than some of the other flat shoes I had been looking at. It looks good with pants and skirts, the cut-outs make it breathable and the color (red) is fine but not fabulous. The sole is slippery and pretty hard. I suspect the heel is one of those hollow heels because of how it sounds when walking. The shoe is comfortable enough and I wear it a lot to work. It's a fine work shoe, don't walk long distances with it because there's not a lot of padding or support and it is slippery. I'm okay with it or I would have sent it back. I was pleased it fit and needed a bright red shoe for some of my outfits.

Great shoe! I preferred the bone colored one, but unfortunately they didn't have it in my size 9.5 EE. And then I thought, why not some color and I got the red ones. The shoes fit perfectly! Love them. Didn't need any breaking in. The sole of the heel is a little slippery in the beginning, but it gets better once you've been walking outside. I love it that Zappos has shoes in so many styles and sizes. I always have a hard time finding shoes in my size in stores. Used to buy shoes for less than $50 a pair, but my feet were not really happy. Now I pay a little more, my feet are happy and the service at Zappos is fantastic. Ordered my shoes on a Sunday and they arrived the next day without me asking for it! Now when I need/want new shoes I look at Zappos first. So thank you Zappos!

I am very pleased with my Ros Hommerson Marty shoes. They fit perfectly and were very comfortable the first time I wore them. It was an event where I had to stand and walk for a long period of time. They are well made and attractive.

I purchased these for my mother in law. She says they are comfy. She wears an 8 or sometimes 7.5 the 7.5 fit her perfectly so they do not run small. She is very happy with them. No complaints.

Beautiful shoe! Even better when you open the box. I did have to stretch the 'band' of fabric around the top of the shoe but I frequently have to do that. No biggie. Pretty, pretty, pretty.

I have had an extremely difficult time finding a pair of white flats that could be worn with dresses and skirts. My shoe requirements need to be narrow in the heel plus a high, rounded toe box. Additionally since I have bunion problems I need a deep vamp so the shoe does not press on the bones of my big toe. After several attempts I found the perfect shoe when I purchased the Ros Hommerson Marty in white. Thank you Zappos.

I have been looking for a slip on flat for a long time. I have a wide toe box but narrow heels, so every time I find a shoe that fits the toe box it falls off my foot by slipping off my heel. I ordered this in a W size and it fits really well. It's not too tight across the toes and it stays on my feet. So far I've been wearing them and they're comfortable, even though they don't have much arch support. I have the shoes in black and they are a nice, not too shiny black.
