This shoe fit fine but wasn't as comfortable as I was hoping for. I'm needing a shoe I can wear most of the day and this one is not for me. :(

Unfortunately, the big toe on my left foot hit the top/front of the shoe. I was also hoping for a bit more flexibility but the leather was hard and hit the top of my foot when I walked. Seems like it would have taken a while to break them in. Loved Zappos great speedy service, as always.

I purchase SoftWalk shoes several years ago. At that time the ENTIRE insole was mogul (bumpy). Some SoftWalk shoes are still made that way but not the Abby. I should have noticed the picture that shows it is PARTIALLY mogul up to but not including the heel area. To me the heel area is not as comfortable as it used to be. The Abby says the heel height is 1 3/4 inches but my measuring shows it is really 2 1/4 inches.

I so wanted to love the SoftWalk Abby (I got the black and brown suede), but honestly the upper of these shoes is so stiff that I can barely walk in them. Sadly I will be returning both pairs.

This is a well made clog, very comfortable as long as I was sitting. When I got up to walk, I felt like I was tipping forward....so the heel is too high for me. I've got to keep trying to find a shoe that will feel comfortable!

I really like the design but the top was so loose, that my narrow feet were not staying in the shoe I've worn this clog before, but this time the top is a bit high and not comfortable to move in without feeling like I would lose the shoe or slide around.

I do wish Zappos would offer more clogs in Narrow. Over time, I seem to have tried them all, and other than Sanitas, which I find uncomfortable with my particular health problems, none of them have really been what I want in a clog. It's possible that I'm impossible to please, but if there were more narrow offerings, I might just stop sending shoes back! I love that Zappos is endlessly patient about this, but it is frustrating not to find what I want, which would probably be an Alegria, only in narrow (which they do not make). So I guess that's Alegria's fault, but their combination of cushiness and support really work for me. As to this Softwalk, it has what I'd call a "squashy" feel, i.e., not enough support. Not much arch support, either. Narrow, yes, but I didn't like it. That may just be me, though.

They were comfortable to a degree, but their weird insole made it uncomfortable and gives the toes no place to move.

These are really, really comfortable out of the box. They also started showing wrinkles where my foot bends, after about ten steps indoors. Comfort is great, but they're not going to look like much if I wear them the usual miles per day. Sorry to send them back, glad Zappos has a good return policy.

The clog is the perfect height, also it is very comfortable. My only complaint
is it does not come up high enough over the top of your foot. I have other clogs
they cover much more of the top of the foot than these do. considering these are so
expensive the company can afford more leather.

I like the style, but the heel is higher than I expected. This makes my foot slide too far down the shoe making it difficult to wear. Thinking of returning them.

These were my first softwalk shoes. They were very comfortable. Unfortunately just after three months they have started to rip at the seams
I am very disappointed given how much they cost.

I wore these inside and thought they fit well, until iItried them for a half hour.
They are narrow on my right foot and hurt right at the bunion bone.
Must return, sadly , because they could have been great.

This shoe, Abby, has a notably different shape than the looks-similar "Murietta". This one did NOT fit me well at all, while the Murietta was perfect (but too tall). Abby, here, has a bit less padding at the arch opening as well.

Though the size I ordered was 1/2 size smaller than my usual, it was still too big. I totally believe that the reason for this is because I was able to order the WIDE width, which allows me often to order a smaller size. I would have exchanged or re-ordered in smaller size, but again in the WIDE width, if it had not been for the leather of the shoe. Though beautiful in appearance, it did not feel soft enough on my foot. It is not a product fault, it is that my feet are highly sensitive. Thank you.

I did not like the seam running down the top of the shoe. I have had several pair of Soft Walks. These just felt weird on me. The inside was too "grippy" or "poofy" or something. Just could not wear these.

The leather on these shoes has a nice soft feel. I liked the style for work and casual wear. Unfortunately, compared to other Softwalk shoes with the egg-crate insoles I have purchased in the past, the padding in these shoes was very skimpy. The egg-crate padding does not even go all the way to the toes like my older Softwalk shoes with egg-crate insoles. Comparatively speaking, I was very disappointed with the quality of the insoles in these shoes. I have a pair of older Softwalk shoes of similar style with egg-crate insoles that are about 7 years old in my closet right now. They actually have more padding in them than these new ones that I just bought. When I slide them on my feet they still feel wonderful even after all these years. They actually make tired feet feel soothed. I hope the Softwalk company returns to their previous quality of crafting shoes. If so, I am a customer for life.

This is a really cute shoe for those with narrow or medium feet. The leather upper needed to be either shorter or longer as it irritated the top of the foot where it ended. This definitely did not feel like a 8.5w which is what I ALWAYS wear in Clarks. I highly recommend this shoe if you don't have wide feet. If you wear a wide, order a half-size larger.

The shoe is cute. The shoe is comfy. I just can't get past the gray footbed showing against the black heel. Why didn't they make the footbed black to match the rest of the shoe? Petty? Maybe. Since it bugged me too much to ever actually wear them anywhere I am returning them. :(

I like this color, but these shoes did not fit as well as a different SoftWalk in a color that I could not use. This pair of shoes is only to wear around the house.

The oily leather was way too wide and felt long as well. I reordered 8M (from the 8W) and that was way too tight. I ordered the 8W in regular leather and that fit perfectly. I am not sure what the difference in the leather was but I finally got it right. My previous pair is probably four years old now and needed to be replaced. I am very happy to find them again.

The style is great. Can wear with jeans or dress up a bit. I have to admit that I am not thrilled with the size or width. I wear a 9 m. I probably could have gone with a 9.5. I'm hoping the more I wear them, that they might stretch a bit.

Got these today and tried them out. Unfortunately there is a gore on the inside of the top of the shoe that has stitching that rubs the inside of my arch and is painful. Too bad, they are really cute.
