Customer Reviews Deer Stags Times Comfort Oxford

Shoe was a little wider in the heel which causes me to have to tie it tighter than I prefer. Not enough to be a problem though. Nice shoe other than that. No shoe anymore seems to have a good arch support, its a thing of the past. They all want us to buy our own insole replacements I guess.

I wear a size 15 and needed a new pair of brown shoes for a wedding. I didn't feel like spending more than my budget, and these served the purpose, but by no means are they a comfortable shoe. I've only had them for a month, so there's still some breaking in to be done, and maybe they will improve after that. Will update review if there's an improvement.

Insole quite soft. Area around ankle too high and uncomfortable. Much warmer than my previous shoes (similar design) for summer use. Wish I would have returned them instead of wearing them out of town. Ended up with a blister at the back of my ankle after first day.

Nice look and feel. Problem in the heel. It's not solid. There is a clear piece in the center. When heel wears out around this, you'll be left with a hole in your heel.

The heel design dug into and hurt the back of my son's heels. There's a horizontal ridge that I suppose is intended to help grip the heel, but it just put more pressure on it. It was also misshaped due to the packaging stick that goes from toe to heel.

I bought these shoes for my 6th grader. For a stiff shoe, they work fine for periodic dress-up, not sure how they would wear for everyday use. Most importantly, the "leather" on the top of the shoe got scuffed on his first use, which caused the surface to peel back, exposing white underneath. Hard to hide the white spot now.

Ordered these shoes because they are considered airport friendly. They were pretty uncomfortable and didn't provide much of an arch support.

I love how these shoes fit - I wore my first pair for a little over a year. I purchased a second pair, but after 2.5 months, the outside started to bubble and flake off! Poor construction on the second pair, but my first pair was great... maybe it was just a bad batch.

Too Large, Chewed Up Heel - I liked the look and feel of this shoe: lightweight, easy stepping, pleasant appearance, and the absence of metal shanks made airports and travel a breeze. However, the shoe was indeed over-sized by at least a half size (perhaps more) and the rolled over heel combing cut serious and nasty blisters on the backs of both my ankles! I'm trying again with this same shoe, now 4 months later, with a smaller size; and I'm going to aggressively soften the new shoes' heel combings before leaving home for a 5-day trip. Obviously, I liked this shoe enough for a reprise but listen carefully to those of us who complained first about the sizing, and second about the stiff, cutting heel combing. I'll write again when I get the new ones ...

Water gets in - These shoes were allright, but not in a rainy day. When it rains is as though you are barefoot. The water gets in and out as wishes.

Think Twice - I read the review and thought this shoe would be super-comfortable. It's not. I wore the shoe around the office for about six hours before wearing it outside. They seemed all right for a few days. After walking around New York City all day, my dogs were barking. I developed blisters on the balls of my feet. I'm 6'4 and 235. If you're normal size and you don't need a lot of cushioning, they might work. If you need cushioning for the forefoot, think twice. (Note: cushioning in the heel is good.) I'm planning to buy a pair of Clarks.

I bought an 11.5 3E and it fit fine. Length and width were great and the shoe was comfortable. I returned it because it was cheap and plastic looking. The leather was not high quality and the dye was so thin across the toe of the shoe, that it looked like a different color from the rest of the shoe.

My husband tried these on, said they felt too stiff and uncomfortable, so we sent them back. Unfortunately you get what you pay for so we'll be spending more on a higher quality shoe.

Coming apart at the soles after 2 months of weekday use. Leather upper is pulling right off the sole. Thankfully, no hassles on the return. Extremely comfortable, other than that.

I owned my first pair of these shoes for 3½ years and was very happy to order the exact same shoe again as these are my main work shoes. The second pair lasted less than 1½ years because the leather covering started to peel off within six months on both shoes and they started looking bad as there is no way to fix them. I have held on to them as long as I can but they really need to be replaced because they now look unprofessional. This did not happen on the first pair. It must have been a bad lot. I hope Deer Stag has fixed the problem but I am not taking the chance just yet. I am a pilot and they are airport friendly as I do not have to take them off for the medal detector. I am going to order a different brand this time and will try these again if there a no other reports of the leather covering peeling off. If anyone can post that they do not have this problem it will help everyone as this is not the fist time someone has mentioned this as an issue.

Shoe strings broke after wearing 2-3 times. Called and emailed Deer Stags with no responce. I will never buy a pair of Deer Stags ever again. Buyer beware!

Not true to size - Leather uppers creased on the first day I wore them. Comfort sole is nice but the shoe is way too tight.

Dissatisfied Customer - This is my second pair of Deer Stag shoes and this pair was made in Brazil. My previous pair was made in China and had genuine leather tops, cut lower at the ankle, and super comfortable. That's why I decided to buy another pair. My second purchase was very disappointing. The shoes are not real leather and wrinkled after the first wearing. Buying these shoes was like throwing money down the drain. I'll never buy another pair. I don't think Zappos.com should carry such a shoe. I really thought I was on to something good after my first pair. I had sore feet after a day because the shoes are so stiff.

My heels are killing me - It chewed up my heel along the achilles tendon the first few days. The "Ultron sock insert" does not provide sufficient lift on the ball of the foot, causing the achilles to scrape against the back of the shoe. Purchasers with orthotics should be aware that their orthotics may not fit (if your orthotic is flat in back, you should be ok. If it has a narrow base, your orthotics won't work.

My son wears these shoes for school as part of his uniform. Not for gym class or any outside activity. He has had these shoes for three months and they are falling apart! The outer part of the shoe, whatever it's made of, is peeling off. Like a very thin plastic/fabric layer. And the sole of one of the shoes is completely detached. Three months of school wear, as if he's in an office, and they are deteriorating. I'm extremely disappointed. I would not recommend this product to anyone.

Fit, size and comfort are great. Material and workmanship have fallen off a cliff. Once they were leather uppers and lasted for years. Now they are cheap plastic uppers that crack and split within a year, and the soles both crack and come unglued from the upper. Once good shoes are now total trash and not worth the moderate price.

The price, style, and comfort are great. However, the quality of material is horrible for this shoe. I've only worn it for three weeks going to work and it's already falling apart. There is a rip forming at the heel of the shoe which is an indication of poor material. Very silly to buy a shoe that lasts only a month. I've had work shoes that lasted me several years before, so I was really shocked to see this rip form so easily. I suppose you get what you pay for...

The shoes are comfortable and worked well for work for about 2 months until the sole of the shoe basically fell off of the rest of the shoe. I called Deer Stags customer service number they were less than helpful and tried to give me a runaround without making any effort to solve the problem. After raising hell with their customer service for about 3 days they decided to send me a replacement pair. The replacement pair lasted a little bit longer, about 3 months before it started to fall apart as well. I will never again buy a pair of Deer Stag shoes.

When I first put this shoe on I was very pleased. It was very comfortable. However, before the day was over, my feet were sweating so badly that I actually had sweat stains on the exterior of the shoe. Obviously not made for someone who needs genuine leather. Other than that the comfort was good. I just can't wear them. I'm returning today.

I've owned two pairs of these shoes they both were very comfortable. The first pair lasted forever, the second pair fell apart very quickly and I wont be buying Deer Stag anymore.
