This was my first order from Zappos and my very first time ordering shoes on-line. I have been struggling for many many years trying to find shoes that fit (size 14 narrow), and have finally given up. As a matter of fact, I have been wearing the wrong size for so long, I have forgotten what a comfortable pair of shoes that fit well feels like. After finding that Zappos carries my size and reading about their generous return policy, I decided to take a chance. These shoes fit perfectly! They are so comfortable, I wear them every day to work and also for dress. From now on, all my shoes will be ordered from Zappos!

I wear a 14 5E with orthotic inserts due to neuropathy and toe issues. I had never heard of this brand but have found it to be comfortable. My first pair split at the seam on the front within 6 weeks which Zappos replaced at no charge. I only walk in them -- no running -- so was initially disappointed. I am also wearing a New Balance 847 14 6E that seems more comfortable than the Propet but couldn't get it in a style to wear at a wedding or funeral.

My father likes these shoes and they hold up well, he wears the 5E. Excellent shoe for extreme width.

Shoes are great ~ Zappos is BEST!
I got these shoes for my son who has size 17 wide flat feet. He wears them to work and is quite happy with them. They do run wide so you might not need them as wide as you think. They have a nice roomy toe box also. My biggest praise though goes to Zappos. I ordered these at 9:30EST and had them in my hand by 4pm the next day!! And that was with free shipping. Now imagine how the world would work if all businesses were run this way...

Great shoe, great value -
I’m on my feet all day and the Propet Walker is perfect. All I can say, for the price and on your feet all day, or out for a long walk, get this shoe.

The fit was fine. I have been walking in them for less than 2 months and the rubber pieces on the soles are already starting to fall off and separate. They are not bad shoes but don't plan on doing a lot of walking in them they will come apart. Other than that they are not bad. Not a good value for the price.

These shoes were purchased about a month ago. Great fit and comfortable. Problem....The shoe is separating from the sole. Disappointed.

I really like this shoe. It's comfortable and supportive. I am curious to see how long it lasts as I walk every day.

Very nice sneakers. Comfortable to walk in. Well made. No blisters, callouses, aches or pains walking with these on. I walk 3 miles a day on the sidewalks. True to size. The sneakers I've listed below, brands I recommend, are all good.

Only one word of caution -
The "sport white" is really a very light tan color, which I really hate. However, since I'm only going to be wearing these on the treadmill at home I'm going to keep them; the good folks at Zappos.com have been more than gracious about helping me find shoes that are actually wide enough! If you have REALLY wide feet, consider the 5E version of these...I'm just so happy to find shoes that actually fit. I'm going to be ordering the "white" version for wearing out and about. Thanks, Zappos! I'd have no shoes that fit if it wasn't for you!

Outside heel base breakdown -
After receiving these shoes I found they were very comfortable and enjoyed working out in our health club with them on. After wearing them for approximately 6 months I noticed the outside of the heel on the left side began to breakdown. The rubber composite began to disintegrate and gave the shoe a look that wasn't very attractive. I wonder if other wearers had the same problem.

I bought these shoes for my husband in June. It is mid September and they are already falling apart. The soles are coming apart at the heel and the toe, and the tread is worn down like he's been wearing them for years. These are NOT durable, well-made shoes. We will NOT buy them again.

This is the best walking shoe I have used. I walk 25 to 30 miles per week for excercise and have tried lots of different shoes over the years.

I ordered these because my husband needs extra wide shoes, which are very hard to find. These fit perfectly and are very comfortable. We are very happy with this purchase.

I think for the price I paid I should have a shoe that doesn't start coming apart in a very short time. Pictured attached. I purchased the same shoe twice before and had good results and they wore for over a year with my sedate lifestyle. I am disabled and don't put many miles on a shoe so they last a while. I am saddened that these are coming apart so soon and the only difference is these are brown and the other 2 were gray.

I really don't know what Zappos is asking, when asking about arch support. I have a high arch and unfortunately these cut across it like a knife. There felt like some sort of extra fabric or something going on as well at the place where my toes meet my feet :-) The width, even though marked 5E - and I'm 3E - really felt tight also at this same place on the shoe. However, the fit seemed great other than being narrow. And, interestingly, even though they are said to be 5E next to that is a marking of XX, which tells me there are just double wide and the 5E isn't US 5E or 4E or 3E, just XX. I had ordered a different brand to try and they are marked 4E. A little loose but feel fine. So, these are going back, though I liked the style and design very much.

I used to wear New Balance for years, but the latest pair I ordered were nowhere near comparable to my old ones, not to mention the fit on the NB's was way off from what it was supposed to be. I returned them and took a chance on this company PROPET that I'd never heard of. I have wide feet made wider because of edema in both legs, so I ordered 9.5 (5E). They fit PERFECTLY right out of the box and are very comfortable, with no break-in period whatsoever. Great design, fit, and comfort!
As for Zappos' customer service, they're sensational! The website info was exact down to the color shade of the sneakers. I received the new pair 2 days after ordering them. I had already gotten the refund for the NB's immediately after dropping the returning pair at a UPS store. And, of course, FREE shipping both ways. Great experience! Kudos ZAPPOS!!!

I've been wearing these Propet Stability Walker shoes for several years now, mostly the brown nubuck, but they are so comfortable I have grey, black and white too. I work in hospital maintenance and work in multiple buildings connected by tunnels, so I walk a lot! My feet always hurt before I found this shoe, but no longer. I add a foam cushion insole under the inserts they come with, replacing it when needed, and the shoes last a reasonable length of time wearing them every day. They slip on my heels at first, but after a couple of hours they loosen up and fit snug. The only problem is with laces not staying tied, and coming apart before the shoes are worn out. I have replaced the laces on a few pairs to extend the usable life, because they feel so good I want to get all I can out of them!!

Wow! Me: Wide foot, high arch, bad knees. My search for the perfect walker has finally ended! I have been a faithful New Balance customer for years. While I still think they are a quality product, there was too much variation in fit between various models and they continue to add and drop models, and have too many to keep up with, so it (lately, anyway) was a hit/miss deal and, even with the excellent Zappos return service, an inconvenience. These are simple, basic, consistent shoes. Stylish without being "clunky looking" with excellent support. Will be ordering two more pair soon.

About 3 years ago I bought a pair of these, and as they are beginning to wear out from all kinds of use from generally casual to yard work, I ordered another pair. I love Zappos, and have bought all my shoes and boots from them over the past 10+ years. I have a very wide foot and high instep. Selections are good for me.

Comfy shoe. I have a trouble getting athletic shoes wide enough and this is perfect. I look forward to really testing them on my cruise.
