Very impressed! Have you ever said, "I will never find a shoe that fits?" Look no more: this is it. I have a wide midfoot and am narrow in the heel, and this shoe fits like it was made for me. I also have neuropathy from MS, complicated by diabetes, so my feet hurt all the time. I don't like wearing snug shoes, but the wooly slippers I wear to keep my feet warm just aren't supportive enough. Drew shoes run a half size larger (if you wear a 9, order 8.5), and the width is generous. Very impressed with this shoe. And the overnight delivery Zappos offers is unbeatable, as is their customer service. I won't hesitate to order from them again.

Drew's Desiree - Have problem feet, and need custom orthotics in my shoes. This rules 99% of shoes out. At 55, not ready for the "nursing home" look yet. While these shoes are not the style I would like to wear, I was able to wear them standing for about six hours the first time pain free, and they were not bad looking either. If you have problem feet and must have a well-constructed shoe with some style, I would recommend these.

Just what I wanted - It took a full day of walking on carpet to determine that the difference in fit was just what I wanted in a comfortable walking shoe. I've received quite a few comments on its unique appearance and questions about where to purchase the shoes.

Most comfortable shoe ever - When I put this shoe on I realized nothing I own comes close in comfort and support. I think I could walk ten miles in these shoes. The velcro strap is generous-I have severe swelling in one leg and it can be hard to find velcro shoes with enough velcro. I don't care for the mesh accent- I wish they had used microfiber but that is my only complaint. From now on I will look for Drew brand first when buying shoes.

Comfort and a bit of style - I like the look of this shoe, but I prefer the Drew Bloom II overall. This one is comfortable, but I couldn't quite get the T strap fastened smoothly - it seemed to bunch a bit. The shoe still felt great and accommodated custom orthotics (big selling point for me). I've tried lots of 8.5 WW shoes, but the ones that fit me best are the Drews. I just wish they made styles that were a bit more fun - but with my problem feet comfort is my #1 priority. Just want to add that my Zappos’ experience could not have been better! It's impressive when a company offers such exceptional service!

My daughter loves this shoe! If your child has a wide foot, buying uniform dress shoes can be a real challenge. This one is cute and the mesh uppers help her foot to breathe and she says that it looks "cool" - YAY!

Comfy Shoes for hard feet - I have both a hammer toe and bunions. Drew makes shoes that are deep enough to accommodate a hard to fit foot. They have removable insoles that will allow me to put in my orthodics, and give more room for my hammer toe. And Zappos is great at sending them quickly. I love shopping here!

Very comfortable shoe. A little pricey but a very comfortable shoe.

Good, comfortable shoe - I have had trouble finding just the right wide shoe for years. Drew's Desiree is comfortable and easy to wear and does not look overly much like a wide shoe. It can be worn with pants or dresses for a casual, fun look.

A wide shoe with some pizazz! I usually wear a 4E in Propet's but thought I'd try the 3E in this shoe and there's plenty of room. The combination suede/leather look is great. Stylish, with a little more pizazz than the plain "Mary Jane" look. The 3 removable insoles allow you to customize the fit for each shoe. Good support and comfy to wear all day on the first wearing. One negative - the heel is also wide. If you have wide toes and a narrow heel, this may not work for you.

These are very comfortable and not quite as "clunky" looking as other walking shoes. They look nice with dress pants or jeans and could be worn with a skirt. They do run large. I wear a 5 1/2 and usually wear a 6 or even 61/2. I wear wide, but on this shoe had to put heel grips in the heel as they were too wide. Toe box is perfect however. The t-strap tends to bunch up which I had read from another reviewer, but it's acceptable.

Best shoe ever for wide sore feet. I have a lot of pain and deformity in my feet from surgery gone wrong. I have boxes full of shoes that have failed. This is the most comfortable shoe I have ever had on my feet. The mesh 'gives' perfectly. When it came I put it on with my orthotics and wore it for hours. That had been impossible. I took a walk for the first time in ages. I can wear these shoes all day! My feet are very wide at the front and very narrow in the heel. This shoe is a bit wide at the back but it is still the best ever. Thanks Zappos.

This shoe is excellent relief for ball-of-foot pain. However, don't be fooled by the faux-sandal appearance -- you cannot wear this shoe without socks. I tried and after five minutes the skin was rubbed off the back of my ankle and I was carrying them. Feels good again with band aids plus socks.

Drew’s - Having a little trouble with the arch support in the right shoe - my foot wants to lean. Like the shoe - but still trying to get it broken in - have trouble with my feet burning on the ball of the foot - so am hoping this shoe will take the pressure off.

Solid Comfort - I didn't realize that the Drew Shoes I was looking for were difficult to find at nearby shoe stores. I really wanted to try them on before buying. Finally I accepted that ordering through Zappos would have to substitute for the local shoe store. The mailing service was phenomenal. I was very pleased. Now, on to the shoes. I am happy with this shoe. I purchased a taupe pair. They were a darker taupe than I expected, but now that Fall is upon us, the darker color will be good for these months. The fit is good and my feet feel very comfortable. There is a lot of support in the shoe. I use orthodics in them. With such good service from Zappos, this is a very acceptable method of buying.

Great shoe for a teacher - I'm on my feet all day as a teacher and have recently had problems with my feet, especially the arches. I needed better support and these shoes fit the bill perfectly. Not only that, but they're good looking too. They did run a bit wider than I'm used to (even as a medium) but wearing thicker socks took care of that. I plan on buying more of this brand in the future!

Finally, a comfortable shoe! I have been searching for a comfortable wide shoe (that was not a sneaker) for ages. This shoe fits the bill. I can teach in it all day and my feet don't hurt at day's end. Thank you Drew (and thank you Zappos)!

Very comfortable shoe - I ordered a half size larger after reading other reviews but I could have ordered my regular size. They are great for wide feet and I can wear think or thick socks. They look great with jeans.
