Wear for work and casual. Very nice leather. Great alternative to Dansko and Sanita. My foot is between narrow and medium width. I wear 9 1/2 to 10. 9 1/2 was perfect fit in this shoe. Medium in Born Toby fits fine. Excellent service from Zappos.

This has been my go-to shoe for the past five years. They fit beautifully and are very comfortable. You can wear them all day long and never experience any type of foot fatigue. They look great with jeans and nice pants as well. I hope they never discontinue making them.

Really really comfortable! I'm on my feet all day and theses are the best. Better than Dansko even. Not the hippest looking shoe but also not too ugly.

Very nice shoe. The leather is beautiful. I ordered my regular size 9 1/2. I wear between a narrow and medium. The medium width is fine.

I do love these shoes. Had a hard time sizing them. They run very large. I finally got the right size, one that I have not fit into for the past 40 years! Zappos is great and worked with me through two returns until I was satisfied. I wear these shoes in the museum where I am on my feet all day and also look great when I go to meetings at City Hall.

I am very happy with these shoes. I do think they might run a little wide. I sometimes find my ankles toppling over when I'm walking on uneven surfaces. I've had similar clogs before and this didn't happen. Maybe the heel is a little narrow in comparison to the shoe? Still, I don't regret getting them.

I comparison-shopped this shoe against five others, one from Cole Haan, two from Ariat, one from Comfort Cradles, one Soft Spots, and this one was the most comfortable. I wanted something I could walk around in for a few hours in the city and not feel sore.

These shoes were on my feet all day, and are perfect. They out performed Dansko on comfort, fit and weight.

Love this shoe. I can wear with thin or thinker socks and they work well. Purchased because I have recently had a case of plantar fascitis and have looked high and low for a shoe that is comfortable and this is it. The arch is just right and I have actually been able to stay on my feet all day with not problem. Born is a shoe I will look for in the future.

Very comfortable, adds height which I like. Pretty casual, even rustic, appearance, with the tan stitching, but great with jeans. My pair was true to size with plenty of toe room, but a wee bit tight across the instep. It seems to be loosening with wear, and is not uncomfortable. I am eying another pair.

I love these shoes! I'm a flight attendant with bunions on both feet. I've spent a lot of time searching for a good shoe that will keep my feet from hurting and I've found just the thing with Born's Toby. I've been wearing Dansko Professionals for some time, but my feet were starting to hurt with them. Toby has great support and is quite light weight. I'm always a 7.5, but found the 8 to be a better fit.

You'll love these shoes if you're on your feet all day as I am. I only wear them with pants, but might wear them with tights this winter.

I love these clogs. They are comfy enough to get me through the school day (I'm a teacher), but stylish enough not to look like orthopedic shoes. Worth every penny.

Very comfortable and light shoe! I switched to this shoe after wearing Danskos; what a difference! I work 12 hour shifts. Danskos are great too, but if you want a shoe that is lighter and not so bulky (and doesn't twist your ankle at least once a day) this is the shoe for you!

This is absolutely the most comfortable shoe that I have ever owned. My feet never get tired or sore in them after being on my feet all day. They are worth the money. They are even nice looking & don't look like a standard boxy clog. I love them so much that I first purchased them in black and ordered another pair in a brown. This is the first Born shoe that I own and it won't be the last. Very comfortable!

Zappos is awesome! The customer service stands alone in their perfection.This Born Toby is a very right out of the box comfortable and a good looking shoe. I have worn other similar shoes that are very rigid and heavy. These shoes are soft and light weight. I love them.

I was very pleased with my Born Toby's. I have always felt Born's are true to size and have a firm belief that a shoe should fit perfectly the moment you put it on. No breaking in allowed here! Very comfortable shoes, good arch support...I wear them all day. My new winter "go to" shoe!

Well, I already have the Toby in black and immediately ordered the brown. The brown is a little darker than in the picture, which I think is better. I've been wearing them all day for the past week and my feet feel great! I ordered a half size smaller and they are perfect.

I just received the Toby in Black. I am usually a 10.5 but ordered the 10 based on the reviews I read. I am in love with them! They are so comfortable right out of the box. Plenty of toe room and a very comfortable foot bed. I am not taking these off and will be ordering them in brown, as well.

I love them so much! I just ordered another pair in different color. I wear them with dressy pants, casual dress with tights, etc. They are not too chunky. Also, they are not stiff like other brands in the similar style. They are actually supple and I feel like I finally found the perfect shoes to wear every day. My feet are short and square with high arch. They are not wide enough to get shoes with wider width which my heels would come off when I walk.

Ahhh... from the moment I put them on. I’m a huge Born fan. I heeded the reviews and ordered 1/2 size down. I usually wear a 9, but the 8.5 is perfect. Great support for my plantar fasciitis and the brown is a lighter brown - perfect for summer khaki clothing. Also, I ordered these late last night and got them today! Excellent service as usual!

I LOVE these shoes. I got them and they are so comfy and soft and cushy. I bought Dansko and Sanika before and I hate those shoes, they are too hard. Born is the best way much better, and cheaper too. I bought these from the Born web site and it took a long time to get it, I wished I bought it from Zappos because with Zappos I get it in one day. I'm hoping they will come in red, I'll be watching and waiting. These are better than the clog style because with clogs the shoe moves too much, this style is the best.

I have yet to go wrong in purchasing a pair of Born shoes. True to size and fit, they were meant for my feet from the first wearing. Great for all day wear, and also subtle for a wear-to-work look. Being real leather, I was a bit nervous about how the toe area might scuff. Across the toe area Born has made the shoe a darker hue and I have bumped into a few corners already, and they have not lightened at all. So continues my Born love affair... until my next pair...

These shoes are great - they have the best arch support! You can wear them all day long and your feet never tire. You get the best of both worlds with these shoes - extreme comfort and they look great! I think they look especially good with jeans. As always, Born delivers a great product.
