Customer Reviews Born Toby

Comfortable shoe from day 1. I purchased this pair as well as black, great for when I am on my feet all day. :-)

Looking for alternative to Dansko Professional and find this shoe to be cuter (slightly more shaped but not too much) and well-made. But I seem to be in between sizes in that there's a gap between my heel and back of shoe in the 7.5, while the 7 feels a bit narrow (I have wide feet) and the heel is still loose. I would try a 7 wide if offered; I generally wear 7 or 7.5 depending on shoe style and brand. I may keep the size 7 and hope they stretch a bit with wear, since they are otherwise exactly what I'm looking for.

BORN! BRING BACK THE TOBY! I prefer these shoes to the Dansko. I have worn this shoe everyday for 2 years and want another pair. Please please please bring back this shoe. I love my patent black, gunmetal and zebra print. You must bring this shoe back as a staple in your collection!

These shoes are great! I am a teacher and I need supportive footwear that can be worn to work. I have wide feet and a high arch, and when I first put them on with thick socks, it was a little tight, but after 2-3 wears, I can slip my foot in and out easily. These shoes are so comfy!

I love my black Born Toby clogs. I usually wear a 7.5, but ordered the size 7 and they fit perfectly. They're comfortable and give me that extra support and height I'm looking for. I had purchased the Born B.O.C. Peggy clogs, which are the less expensive version but was disappointed by the fit. Even though the Peggy was in my size, my big toe hit the end of the shoe (a problem I've read in other reviews) and made wearing them very uncomfortable, so I returned them. It's worth the extra money to get the Toby.

I was hesitant to buy these because I have weak ankles but my doctor said I really needed more support than the TOMS I had been wearing. My ankles, legs, and feet have been giving me fits. I am also recovering from a hip injury. Well, these shoes fit PERFECT! I didn't have to worry about breaking them in. They were awesome from the first time I put them on. Perfect support and just an overall great fit. When I went home that day I realized my legs, hips, and ankles weren't hurting so there's the proof in the pudding! BUY A PAIR!

LOVE these shoes! I have previously tried Danskos as I love them and people recommend them often but they just don't feel right on my particular feet. These are perfect! The real story though is that when I ordered these shoes hoping to wear on a trip 2 days later, they arrived and somehow a size 7 shoe was in the 8.5 box! Zappos was AMAZING and replaced them overnight with the right size (I returned the 7s) so I had them for my trip! What a fantastic company, I love Zappos!

WOW!! Loved these shoes. Bought these for a vacation which required miles of city walking each day. Never did my feet ache or get tired! Loved them!

These are great shoes for any job that requires a lot of time on your feet. They are easy to break in. They are not too clunky, and I can walk around without feeling like I am wearing two bricks on my feet!

I wanted so much to love these and I'm still giving them 5 stars because they are cute, durable and well made, just not a good fit for my feet. I'm normally a 7 1/2. I tried both the 7 1/2 (too big and too wide, particularly in the heels) and the 7 (too small in length and the heel was still too wide.) I couldn't get the arch on either pair to hit the right spot, but I still give them an "excellent" for support. I did not wear them outside, but noticed the soles are quite slippery on both our carpets and hardwood floors, which was a bit of a surprise since I believe the soles are rubber. I'm sorry to return both pairs and have had many pairs of Born shoes over the years, but these were just not a good match for me.

Agree with other reviewers. This is a great shoe! I usually wear a 10 1/2, but the 10 fits just fine. There is plenty of room in the tow box, and the support is good. My feet have been very tender, and these shoes give them a break. Would love them even more if the had just a tad more padding. I was considering these shoes and a pair Softwalks, and these won out b/c of the ample width at the ball of my foot and toe space. The Softwalks were a bit too narrow (but had great cushioning).

Absolutely love them. Had a pair for 3 years, wore out replaced them with the exact same ones! First shoe I can wear all day everyday!

This is an excellent shoe if you're looking for comfort! Love them. They look great with jeans. Very happy.

Super comfortable, just the right heel height. They have a great roomy toe box, and very nice arch support. I have been wearing these continually and cute with tights and a skirt, or with pants or jeans. I really like the slightly wrinkled/distressed look of the leather. A favorite shoe!

This is my second pair of Born Toby (the other is a brown cord.) Love, love, love them. They are perfect shoe for traveling, very comfortable wearing all day walking around, easy on and off for airport security. They do not look clunky looking and I think they go well with both jeans or dressier pants. I was nervous about ordering a sz. 7 as the other pr. i have is a 6.5 and fit well, but i really wanted the black to wear to visit my daughter Thanksgiving week and they didn't have 6.5 so i ordered up and they fit perfectly, i could not tell the difference in the sizing even after being on my feet a lot. Only wish they offered different colors that i could order , a nice patent black or deep red would be nice. As always Zappos is the best service I have encountered with on-line shopping. Where can you beat next day arrival, free shipping both ways. Wish more companies offered this and I would do more online shopping. I really don't know how they do it so well.

I bought these after returning some Danskos. These shoes have less arch support, but they come up farther on my heel, which I prefer. They seem pretty comfortable, although they are still about a half-size larger than I'd prefer.

These are so comfortable. I tried Dansko and because I have a wider foot and a high arch, they didn't fit. I wear my Toby's every day, love them.

I love the Born fit, there is no question about it! These were a little higher and more slippery than I had imagined, because I am so used to Born rubber soled flats. But I have grown to love them.

These are the best for long periods of walking and standing! I bought a pair for nursing school and was very comfortable for 12 hours on my feet, right out of the box. I have worn Danskos in the past but found them to be too heavy, too slippy and too high for walking around (Danskos are maybe a little better for just standing without walking - maybe in an OR or kitchen job, not for bedside nursing where you're up and down the hall a million times a day). They're not glamorous-looking, but I loved them so much I bought another pair to wear in my civilian life!

I love these shoes. I got them in brown also. Extremely comfortable from day one. I like that they bend and have some give. I can no longer wear Dansko clogs, they are too stiff. These have a little height, great comfort and style.

These shoes are comfortable and versatile. I have another pair in red. I have very sensitive feet, I over pronate and have narrow feet and these shoes feeel good without orthotics.

The clogs are super soft and comfortable...and lightweight. My only negative comment is that they seem to stretch after a few weeks of wearing them. I'll need thicker socks to remedy that problem!

I plan outfits around these shoes because I love to wear them. Extremely comfortable. I could stand or walk in these for hours.

I loved everything about this shoe, comfort, style, fit, very professional looking however...they were a little noisy when I walked. I'm a massage therapist and I need a quiet shoe when I work. I was really looking forward to wearing this shoe. If it weren't for the sound factor I would have kept them.

Great shoe and very comfortable. They do not need any break in time and they look good with jeans and casual slack. Another home run for Born.
