They were too small, hardly size 11 ordered, and narrow not wide as ordered. The most disturbing issue is that these shoes had been worn, not just tried on but worn. The insoles were dirty, containing residue from previous wearer's socks, soles showed wear. NOT a new shoe. Returned. Poor job folks.

One shoe had a note in it saying it had a defective insole and there was a previously old worn orthopedic arch support still in it. It must have been returned and not inspected as the both the note and the orthopedic arch support were still in it.

I've purchased 6 pairs of the Propet Stability Walker A5500 since 2014 and I was always very happy with them because they would accommodate my orthodic inserts well and were very comfortable. The last pair that I purchased 10 weeks ago, were not nearly as comfortable. Apparently there was a dramatic design change of the Propet A5500. I thought the discomfort was due to the fact that the shoes needed to be broken in, so I wore them for the last 10 weeks. The shoes are very uncomfortable. I developed a blister and other sore spots due to the unevenness of the inside of the toe box. So unhappy with Propet. And so starts another search for a comfortable fitting shoe.

I ordered a 3E as I have a bunion. Normally wear a 2E and these were definitely no wider than a 2E.

Although
Propet street shoes have always been comfortable on my nerve damaged feet, I have yet to find their athletic shoes to be anything other than painful.
I'd also recommend:
New Balance is my current favorite diabetic athletic shoe brand

I had never heard o this brand until coming to Zappo's . I received these Friday morning and have since then thrown away every pair of Walking shoes/sneakers I own. These are so comfortable and without exaggeration I feel like I'm walking on a cloud. My feet/ legs aren't nearly as tired as they use to get.
They are a well designed shoe with leather tops which I appreciate because my feet sweat with cheap shoes.
Highly recommended.
I received the item quickly it was well packaged in fact maybe over packaged.
I'd also recommend:
I find these fort better than some of the major brands.

I purchased these exact shoes a couple of years ago , Propet Stability Walker in Gray , 13-5E , and they fit perfectly ... Now after ordering these in two different colors , I find that they are visibly much smaller ... I measured both along with my old ones and they are 1/2 to 5/8 inch narrower and nearly 1/2 inch shorter ... It seems that all of these foreign made shoes are extremely inconsistent in sizing , as they come from many different manufacturing plants ... Zappos is fantastic when it comes to customer service , but they obviously have no control over the quality of the shoes that they are selling ... I for one do not accept this " Trial and error " approach to buying online ... Longtime customer

I bought these a little less than a year ago and have worn them maybe 6 times. Last time I put them on the loop on the left shoe that the laces go through to hold the tongue from moving broke off. I have never had one of these loops break on any other athletic shoes I have owned. These are very poorly constructed. I would not recommend these. A waste of money. I usually buy New Balance walking shoes and they are far more comfortable and better constructed than these Propet Stability Walkers.

The shoe is decent but did not hold up three months after getting them they are junk. The rubber tips were off after a week and the bottom of the shoe is coming off of the leather now.

This was the 4th pair of shoes iv'e ordered from Zappo's. 4 Different types of shoes. None fit. Am tired of this send the shoe back game. Am going brick & mortar stores from now on. This Propet was garbage & should not sell for $84. For a B width the heel was too big & sloppy. Don't mean to sound bitter but i'm done with Zappo's.

Very disappointed in these shoes. I expected them to be much more comfortable, not even as comfortable as my work boots. The left shoe rubs the top of my foot where the tongue is sewn to the upper.

If you want a pair of shoes that make you look like an old man than these are the ticket! I wanted wide shoes that fit, and thats what I got. My GF said they looked like shoes her dad would wear. Shes right. I have had them for about 2 to 3 months and the soles are already worn out. These shoes are garbage, but they did fit.

The worst shoe I ever put on my feet. I ordered a 10 1/2 EEE. If these are EEE these Chinese feet are different from American feet. I wore these shoes for 3 days and my feet are killing me. Never again from Zappo's. There return policy is ridiculous. No returns if worn, how are you suppose check the shoes out.

Can't recommend. I'm 5'9", 200 lbs & have no significant health/foot problems. I work on concrete floors & walk a lot. I need comfortable & supportive shoes that make a professional impression. These shoes are economical & make a decent impression but that's it. Ordered size 8.5, which I always fit into without trouble. This shoe is oversized & fits sloppy. It has little to no cushioning. On polished concrete floor the sole has little traction. Sadly, about 10 years ago I had a case of plantar fasciitis which has not bothered me since. After wearing this shoe at work for about 1 week- my fasciitis has flared up. Can not recommend these.

We have been ordering shoes in 5E width. These sneakers or Walker shoe says 5E but are decidedly not wide enough. We would like to order the most comfortable shoe we received, the Propet velcro strap in 5E, but in another color. Can I request an exchange when I return these? I will write a note in the box and see what happens. Thank you.

This is not a diabetic shoe. The cushioning, that which exists, is not enough to ease the pain of those of us who suffer from periphereal nerve damage. I found one pair of leather Propet shoes very comfortable, but these athletic style shoes, which I prefer to wear, hurt my feet all day, even after I took them off. Please redesign your athletic shoe line that we may wear shoes that reflect our lifestyle rather than broadcast our handicap.

I've purchased many walking shoes but this is the worst I have ever purchased. It felt a little large when I first tried it on. After wearing it twice, my foot was floating in it. The width went from D to EE and the bottom was like a flat rock was taped to your foot. Part of the tread started coming loose also.. To bad I have to give it any stars.
