Not a bad shoe overall. Looks are okay, but very simple, especially in the toe. Comfort is negligible with no arch support or padding at all. Tried to use an insert, but made the foot bed to high and the toe box, etc. too tight.

These boots looked super cute when I saw them online. And I really like the fact that they are made out of a lot of recycled materials and are more earth friendly. When I pulled them out of the box they looked a little different than the picture. The colors weren't as bright and the knit part was shorter than I expected and it doesn't stand up like in the picture. It has no support so it slouches way down to the point where parts of it were dragging on the ground. I wasn't ready to give up because I felt like it was almost a good shoe. I ended up sewing it a bit to keep the knit part from slouching so far. The shoes weren't very comfortable either, but I solved that problem by inserting some different insoles. With these alterations I can say the shoes are better. I'm not sure how to rate these properly because they ended up being okay after I put some work into them.

I love these shoes! Not only do I feel good about them being made out of organic and recycled materials, they are also very comfortable and light weight. I have received many compliments on them.

I love these Wheelies! They look great, and I am actually very satisfied with the white color. They are really warm (the ankle part is actually very padded, more so than other Chuck Taylor high pars, and flannel!). I can fit my orthotics under the insole which is great. And the only thing I did notice was that the toe area of shoe has less padding of the sole, so I wouldn't recommend for long hikes, etc. on rugged terrain. Great for walking around during the fall and winter!

The Simple CARat Hemp shoes are extremely comfortable and I love the color of my Mulled Grape! I absolutely love the comfort and the use of renewable resources (i.e. hemp, recycled car tires, organic cotton laces and lining) to construct the shoes. I absolutely recommend this shoe!

Comfortable and looks great. Only been worn for a couple weeks, but seem quite sturdy. A little pricy, but got em on sale and am content with the cost. Great vegan shoe.

Love them. I am leery of mail order shoes, but this is my second pair of Simple Sugar. Perfect fit every time. Not as casual as white athletic shoes. Wish they had dark shoe laces, but ordered some elsewhere. Try them.

These shoes have been comfortable from the first time I took them out of the box. Unlike other shoes of this style, they have a decent amount of arch support. I can wear these all day and be on my feet and be totally comfortable.

Great slipper! Very soft and comfortable. I wish I would have gotten a half size larger, but oh well.

I have difficult old feet, but still love the sneakers of my youth. These shoes are perfect; cute and comfortable with good arch support. Have tried Converse, but these are much better. I have four pairs, some hemp, some silk, and all great.

I have multiple styles/pairs of Simples. They are much like New Balances in that they are uniform in size and quality. This CarWalk shoe is very comfortable. Unfortunately the eco-friendly water based glue used on the pair I purchased is sub-par. Within three days the bottom outer sole has detached from the shoe bottom. I learned this during an evening shower and my shoe became soaked from the inside out. Since I have taken to a shoe shop for non ecofriendly but effective glue. I\'m guessing that this shoe is now discounted for good reason.

Reviewer:Leslie from New Jersey
Overall Rating:
This shoe exceeded my expectations. I wanted a casual shoe that was super comfortable for walking but didn\'t look too sporty like a running shoe. I picked this shoe because it was affordable and I planned on swapping out the insoles for special insoles. When I got them and tried them on they felt so comfortable with the insoles that are included. I wore them all day walking in NYC and my feet felt great! So I never bought the special insoles. Plus! I have received compliments on how they look. They go great with boot cut jeans. And they are eco-friendly! Don\'t buy the $115.00 casual shoe. BUY THESE! :D

Love these! I have been a fan of Simple shoes since the mid-90s and continue to be one. I bought the Simple Satire in the red, and they are so cute and comfortable. I wore them for an unexpected hike and although they are by no means a hiking shoe, they were great. A great shoe for the price!

These shoes are super cute! I bought the \'\'urban\'\' pattern and the subtle polka dot pattern is adorable. They do seem to run a bit big, though. I usually wear a 9, but after a couple weeks of wear they\'ve stretched out quite a bit. I suggest ordering half size down and wearing them in. There\'s not a ton of tread, but for fall in the city they\'ve done me just fine!

I bought the blue; the laces are a nice pink, not as coral as in the photo. This is a darling shoe; it has traditional charm with a modern edge. I would recommend it for any age (I\'m a grandma, not a teen.) Oh, yes, it also very comfortable.

I love the black olive color; it's a great neutral color that is a little unique. I need shoes with a wider toe box and a little arch support, and these fit great right out of the box. I would buy them again!

Reviewer:Roy S from The Bahamas
Overall Rating:
I love these shoes. They\'re comfortable right out of the box and the color (I bought the grey) goes great with everything, especially jeans. They may run a little small. I can\'t wear socks with mine but I had no intention of doing that anyway. If you do intend to wear them with sports socks, you might want to go up a half size. My only complaint is that on the right shoe, the rubber has started to come away from the canvas around the front of the toe box, and that started almost immediately. Not a big deal though.

Really great shoe. I expected it to be cute (and it was) but I was pleasantly surprised by how comfortable it also is. It feels completely true to size and I\'ve received a lot of compliments on my pretty green shoes. I will definitely continue to buy not only from Zappos but also from the Simple line.

These are the most comfortable and best fitting sneakers I have had in a very long time. I will buy no other brand from now on.In the past I had spent considerable amount of money for other name brand shoes trying to find a shoe that would help with my foot problems, but sometimes even after a few hours my feet would burn and ache even worse than before. I can now say I have found the perfect shoe my feet do not burn and ache when I walk now. Thanks to the maker of this wonderful shoe. I will be a returning customer.

Overall Rating:
I would so love to give these cute things a five in every category, because they really are my favorite pair of shoes, but I really can't keep the cream-colored rubber part of the shoe clean. It always looks dirty. I have tried to clean it with everything imaginable. And I am kind of fussy about where I wear them, so it isn't that I am hiking or jumping mud puddles in them. And the suede ones I have look even dirtier. But will I keep continuing to buy them? You bet!

I love Zappos! If the shoe doesn't fit, you don't have to wear it or pay for shipping it back either. Very simple shipping both ways, and the shoes usually come quicker than expected, too. Yea Zappos!

I work on my feet 8 hours a day, so I needed shoes that wouldn\'t kill my feet by the end of my shift. Simple shoes work really well and look good doing it. I only have the Satire style, but I like the colors I have it in (black and green). The leather upper even repels light moisture, tho I wouldn\'t wear them if I knew heavy rain was on the way.\r\n\r\nGood for walking and being on your feet a long time. Short break-in period. One pair rubbed my ankle a bit the first time out, so be sure to wear good socks or slap a Band-Aid on if you have narrow ankles like me. \r\n\r\nThe earth friendly sourcing is a bonus, and doesn\'t hurt performance.

Reviewer:Diane C from Bend, OR
Overall Rating:
These shoes are quite comfortable. They are wide enough in the toe box to give most feet toe wiggle room. The lack of arch support impeeds them from being ideal for standing or walking for long periods of time, but still great for a few hours at a time. I love the look of them and the hemp makes them extremely breathable so your feet don\'t get hot in them. I wear these all the time!

I bought these two weeks ago and I\'m very happy with them. They were a little stiff at first but quickly loosened up to the contours of my feet and are now very very comfortable. They also look great, so I would recommenced them to anybody.

I like these shoes a lot. They look great, and are pretty comfortable. Also, the unusual materials its made of really interests me.\r\n\r\nOne thing I noticed when I go the shoes is that there is a thick vertical seem on the very back of the shoe that dug into my achilles tendon. I fixed it with 5 dollar stick-on heel pads from CVS and now I like pretty much everything about how the shoes feel and look.\r\n

About Simple
Simple living is a thing of the past. Bigger, better, and faster have taken the wheel and spun us out of control! We’ve been melting glaciers, banishing bee colonies and devolving the human race into a rat race that uses a devolving mantra of GIMME GIMME GIMME.
When is enough really enough? When can we tweak the definition of wealth and accumulate some positive karma? Can’t we just trade down for once? What’s the solution to this mess?
It’s Simple.
With all the over-built, over-hyped products out there, it's becoming hard to find comfortable shoes that you can live with. So Simple was started. They’re your stereotypical, anti-stereotype brand offering quality shoes and a big dose of reality. Reality with Simple takes shape in the form of Simple men’s shoes, Simple women’s shoes, Simple kid’s shoes and Simple bags.
Later, after about a gazillion pairs of Simple men’s shoes and Simple women’s shoes (give or take a few pairs), Simple has managed to learn a few things. Well, actually a lot of things. And none are more important than this: HOW Simple makes their shoes is just as important as WHY Simple make them. Simple has to find more sustainable ways of doing business. Which pretty much is where Simple stands today... at the crossroads of here and now, aware of their responsibility to the planet while trying to pay the bills.
Sometimes Simple makes progress that is notable while at other times the improvements are harder to recognize. The important thing is that Simple is committed to making Simple shoes and Simple bags that are 100% sustainable.
If you’re ready to take a stand against the shenanigans of excess, then Simple has a new equation to live by:
Less > More
Keep it real. Keep it Simple.
