Great padded support -
These tennis shoes have great support and padding. I like them very much. Sizing felt just right.

The Upbeat is amazing!
I read the reviews and decided to try these shoes, even though they were more than I usually spend. They're worth every penny -so comfortable. I usually have trouble finding shoes that fit, that don't hurt, etc., but these only needed about two hours time to be broken in.

Runs very short.
I couldn't believe the size on the box -this style was a solid half size short.

Excellent.
I've worn these shoes for many years -probably 20. 'Can't find any that I like better. 'Recommend them, especially to those heavier women who need support.

Hush Puppies Upbeat.
I've been wearing Hush Puppie's Upbeat for about 10 years now. Used to get them at the Hush Puppie Store in the mall and then they closed. After that, I got them from JC Penney's catalog. And then, they didn't carry them. My sister found this site for me and I'm soooooo glad I can still find this shoe. I never wear anything else. I have black and white ones so I can change the color from time to time, but this is the only shoe I wear. Had a problem with heel spurs and this shoe is wonderful. That problem has been gone for years, but the Upbeat is so comfortable I never want to have to look for a shoe again. Please don't ever stop making this one.

bounce/ now upbeat
I've bought bounce for the past 6 years they are the most comfortable shoes that I've ever walked in. It took me 64 years to find them. And I never want to be without them ever again.

Lifesaver
These shoes are a lifesaver for me. I am a very large woman and I have heel spurs. These are the only shoes I have found that will support me and protect my heels. I hope and pray they will be around for a long time.

I have been wearing these shoes for a number of years. There is no comparison. I have recently ordered two additional pairs. Please do not remove this product line from your site.

I'd rather go Bare Foot than to Switch to another Brand
I have been wearing Bounce by Hush Puppies for about 7 years now,I used to work at a JCPenney Outlet and the price was real cheap,well I got hooked,then I started ordering them from their Catalog now they don't even sell them,I've called other stores to no avail!Well I got on my blasted computer and typed in the information and Praise Be!I found someone who still has them so I am sending my money order.My last pair of Bounce has been worn every day now for over three years.I may even send to get another pair just to be on the safe side.Bounce IS THE Most Comfortable and Durable Shoe I have ever found.

I am a nurse who spends 12-15 hours a day in my Hush Puppies Bounce shoes. I have worn the same pair for 2 years and have even put them in the washer! I bought my first pair at JCPenney who no longer sells them. It is great to be able to find them again!!!! I have recommended these shoes to many other folks who also spend a lot of time on their feet.

i also like the look. i work for home depot and i am walking on the concrete all day. for a long time i went home crying from the pain in my feet,until i tried the bounce by hush puppies. i have about eight pairs of walking shoes in my closet all brands and prices,but i can't wear any of them for work.my last pair of bounce lasted two full years. i also like the look of these shoes as they are sporty looking and also a good work shoe.

Disappointment.
I was about to order this shoe as it is one of my favorites, but apparently you do not sell the EW width that my duck feet require. Sigh. What a disappointment.

I am so excited!
I never write reviews, but felt I just had to. I have extremely wide feet and never can find shoes that fit right. I put these shoes on and they felt wonderful. They give me lots of support, which is what I need and my knees have stopped hurting since I began wearing these! I have NEVER put on a pair of shoes and had them fit so comfortably before. There was always a long period of breaking them in and getting used to them. Anyone who has difficult to fit wide feet, please try these. I am going to buy some of the other colors now! P.S. They look pretty darned good, too!

Sharp looking, comfortable walking shoe.
I bought a pair of these suede Hush Puppies last spring, put them away and forgot about them. Just before Christmas I discovered them in my big shoe drawer, and have been wearing them every day ever since. They are the most comfortable version of this very comfortable shoe -- and really good looking. I've had lots of compliments on them, which is not the norm with utilitarian walking shoes. The support they give my aging feet is the greatest -- and I'm back to buy two more pairs.

Buy one of each color and leather!

Two years old and still good.
I bought a pair of Hush Puppies, white leather, about 2 years ago. These are the best walking shoes ever had. They are waterproof, I wore them all summer in the rain, in puddles, and never had wet socks. These shoes are still very comfortable. I have only had to polish them twice and they still look good. I saw them in a shoe store and bought another pair while I could get them. I had never seen them in other colors before today when I discovered this site.
I am old and in all these years have never found a pair of shoes I liked better. I have several pair of other styles in the same brand, and will be looking to see if they still sell them. I never saw the shoes in different colors and leathers. I will be getting another pair in a different color. Thanks Hush Puppies for manufacturing such a good quality shoe. Please keep up the good work. It is not easy for me to find shoes that really fit.

I have tried many shoes over the past 30+ years of my nursing career and these are the best shoes I have EVER had. They are not only comfortable and good looking but they are extremely durable. I am looking forward to my second pair. Please don't ever take this shoe off your production line.

I am tickled pink.
I have serious knee and foot problems, which can eventually only be solved by surgery. Until that time I have found the Hush Puppy Walking Shoe with the Bounce dynamics the most comfortable shoe I have ever worn. I also must work on my feet a lot, so this is all very important to me. I would highly recommend this shoe to all, but especially those with wide feet, bunnions, bone spurs and/or knee problems.

Poor SupportGreat Support
I have been wearing this particular shoe (upbeat) for 10 years. I find it very comfortable; soft leather, with a sole that has bounce. I exercise 4 times a week wearing this shoe and it last me about 7-8 months before I need a new pair. It is true to size. I would rate this shoe a 7-8. I do wish Hush Puppies Corp. would start making it in a nubuck again.

Hush Puppies's Upbeat -
I love these shoes! I have owned four pair, and they are very difficult to wear out. The support is there even after the outer leather is scuffed and worn. I prefer the light gray color, but it was not available for my recent purchase. The shoes have been excellent for my needs.

Fabulous service!
I have had trouble finding narrow walking shoes
locally, but will never worry about it again.
The service I had from Zappos.com was wonderful!
I ordered the shoes on Sunday afternoon and they
were delivered at my house on Tuesday afternoon--
free shipping! The shoes were exactly what I had
been looking for. I ordered N or 2A and they are
a little wide, but I had already worn them when I
realized that. I will just wear thicker socks and
the next time I order, I will try the slim. Thanks for such an easy way to shop and have the
absolutely best service I've had in a long, long
time.

solid comfort -
This shoe provides a stable and comfortable fit for people who spend a lot of time on their feet. The uniform shoe design is not very interesting, but the lines are attractive and the comfort is great!

A Close Second -
I had to find athletic shoes in black for a new job fast, so I went straight to Zappos.com. I ordered the Upbeat and the Classic Walker to compare. I ended up going with the Classic Walker and returning the Upbeat. I tried the Upbeat on first and they were so comfortable I thought they were going to be "the one", but, the Classic Walkers were just a bit more comfortable and I preferred the smoother lines. Still, a great comfortable shoe and may fit you better.
