I absolutely love these mocs. They are incredibly comfortable and durable. Though I would suggest ordering a size smaller because they stretch quite a bit and start to feel more like slippers. Great shoe overall.

Order a size down! Thank goodness I read the reviews! I am normally in between a 7.5 and 8 and ordered a 6 (unheard of!) but it was definitely the right call! Other than that, these shoes are fantastic! They are so comfortable, I get a ton of compliments on them, and they are overall a great buy. Definitely get them if you are wondering about them!

Very well made. Nice shoe to wear when you'll be up on your feet a lot. I wore them to an all day festival, and they held up great!

I am always impressed with Minnetonka products, as they are very comfortable and durable. I live in a cobble-stoned walking city, and these are comfy as can be. Order a full size down though, as my usual 10 sized feet needed a 9. (Shoes stretch a bit as are made of suede, so you want them tighter at first.) Great color, love the design, I get compliments constantly. Zappos was great, efficient, easy to track, and just plain friendly!

I love these moccasins. They are the perfect fall/spring shoe and go with almost every outfit. I prefer to wear them without socks, but now that the weather is getting colder I will wear them with socks. These shoes stretch a lot with wear so I would recommend going down at least a half size. I normally wear a size 9 but I got these in an 8.5. After breaking them in for a few days I found that I needed to use the lace to actually tighten them up a little bit more-mostly for the width because I have a narrow foot. I have been wearing them for about 2 months now and I think they are fully broken in. I have twice tightened them up a bit by using the lace and they are a perfect fit. I love flexible shoes with minimal support and these are my favorites.

My experience with Zappos was great. I knew what I wanted, they had it... Sent it fast, and lived up to my expectations. Exactly what I wanted and they were delivered to my house. Very pleased. Again. Linda Larsen

I love this shoe! But you for sure need a full size or half a size smaller then you normally wear. I normally wear a 8/8.5 but purchased the 7.5. They felt tight upon arrival but since they are all leather they stretch out and you will break them in fast. Now they are so comfortable. But practically stretch a full size.

I love them! Am still waiting to hear when Zappos gets in the white leather style...these are so comfy. I had some a long time ago and had fond memories, but these are even better than I remember! They are the perfect color for the fall. The price is right and together with no shipping cost, cannot go wrong! Just another of the great deals I have gotten at Zappos! Thank you!

I've wanted a pair of moccasins forever. After trying some off brands at department stores, I decided to try the original "Minnetonka" and I'm so happy. I am always a size 8, except in Uggs but in this style, I got a 7 1/2 and it is perfect right out of the box. No breaking in period, absolute comfort. I've worn them shopping all day and they are super comfy. My husband was almost ready to lose it due to my constant talk of "Will I ever find a comfortable moccasin?" LOL. Now I have and it's wonderful!

Everything about this order is terrific - I checked many stores & there is no comparison with your product, delivery & happiness w it brought me. I will be ordering another color soon (Black or Red) same shoe. I really like the heel on these Thunderbird II's. Thanks a bunch.

I have been wanting a pair of moccasins forever. When I saw that Minnetonka had come out with the wine color for fall I decided to go for it! I think this color goes great with black and brown so it is very versatile. It is also a very on trend color right now. I followed the advice of the other reviews and ordered a half size down. The stitching was uncomfortably tight the first few times I wore them but they have stretched to fit my feet great now.

I adore these moccasins. I've been a die-hard Minnetonka-er since I was a kid, and I continue to be one in my late teens! I'd worn out my Thunderbirds my mom got for me in seventh grade, so I decided to buy myself another pair. I had to return the 8's I ordered (my usual size) because they were too big, but I ordered sevens and I'm very pleased. Great shoes, and so comfy. :)

Minnetonka's Thunderbird II moccasins are amazing! They are absolute perfection. Hands down one of the best shoe purchases I have made. I am a size 9, and after listening to the reviews I ordered an 8 and they were perfect. They were a bit tight for about 4 days but not uncomfortable enough that I could not wear them. After 4 wears they molded to my feet and now fit perfectly! I love them! The quality is amazing for the price and I love the color, I got the brown. Perfect, goes with everything, seriously. I plan to get Minnetonka boots this winter and I can't wait. I have flat feet and these offer moderate arch support and the soles are padded. I am a New Yorker and do extensive speed walking and I have had no discomfort and do not feel like I can feel the pavement. Can't say enough about these shoes. Zappos customer service is awesome as well! I am a graduate student and do not have time to shop in stores and Zappos allows me to order what I need and receive it in no time flat, with the option to return for no charge. A+.

I really wanted to love this adorable shoe. And it felt fine. There's nice sole padding. I ordered a 7.5. I can be anywhere from a 7-8, and the 7.5 fit. But the sides gaped open, and my feet looked like boats. So I reluctantly sent them back and tried the Kilty Suede Moc instead. The vamp comes up a little higher, so the side gaps less.

These were super comfy right out if the box and look exactly as pictured online. I think they will be cute for fall! They are a little bigger than sized, I usually wear an 8.5 but an 8 fit well but on the loose side. They feel great on and the rubber sole allows me to wear them all day without my feet hurting.

I ordered down a size based on the reviews on the website but they ran much truer to size than anticipated.

Love! Soft as butter and so trendy. I kind of wish I bought a half size smaller but they are fine.

I usually get a size 9 but based on other reviews got the 8.5 and they fit fine. I bought these in the white leather first and they fit a bit snugger than the suede which is fine for me. There is no arch support but I find them to be comfortable just the same, and they accommodate my bunions also. I have had to tighten these up a bit with the leather laces but may have to put in a heel liner at some point. I don't think I will have that problem with the smooth leather. Overall I like them for what they are, a nice comfortable casual fun shoe for jeans or shorts when I don't want to wear Crocs and I like the price.

These were comfortable from the moment I put them on! I did not have to break these babies in at all. I am usually an 8 but I ended up ordering a 7½ instead, I am glad that I did as they are wonderful. I love Minnetonka, I have purchased moccasins from other companies but they have never outlasted the Minnetonka moccasins that I have.

Order 1/2 size smaller. They run big (in this style). Even if they seem a little snug at first, they will stretch. Laces come untied on one shoe. Think I will use a little fabric glue in the knot.

So comfortable, but they run big (long and wide). I originally ordered a half size down, but then exchanged for a full size down. The color is great, I think they will work well with everything!

I love these shoes. Like others have said you have to order a whole size down, so if your an 8 like me, you should probably order a 7. I did and they fit great.

I not only bought in this color but also in the golden color. My wife loves them. They're comfortable and the sizing is true. She told me she has had several compliments. I am a many times repeat customer of Zappos. It's the greatest place to buy shoes.

This is the second pair of these moccasins that I've ordered and I love them. I did have to send a pair back because it wasn't sewn correctly but it was replaced with a perfect pair in one day. Better than the best customer service I'd say. These mocs are comfortable and do run a bit narrow. Also, I ordered 1/2 size smaller and they fit great.

These were a big hit for my wife's birthday. She says they are very comfortable, and I can confirm they look great. They're really well made. We've both gotten moccasins that cost more than twice as much and weren't a bit better and didn't have the neat beadwork either. Such a deal! They do run about half a size big, but taking that into account you can't go wrong with them. The color in the picture is accurate -- unusual, but really nice. It works.
