Customer Reviews Finn Comfort Ikebukuro Darkbrown Grass

Oh sob, oh sigh. Like so many reviewers I have horrible feet. At this point in my life I can only wear Finn Comfort. I have 4 pairs of the Gomera in different colors, but I desperately need a closed toe walking shoe with a back. These shoes look nice but for me they were too heavy, the bac seemed too high , and evidently my unbalanced severe scoliosis/body cannot deal with a rocker bottom. I am so frustrated.... but love Zappos that I can send back the shoes with no hassle.

Something has changed...:( I have owned 3 pairs of Finn Comfort, starting in 2012. I remember the first instant I put them on: Heaven! Incredible arch support, and fit like a glove. I pay a lot for shoes that work, as I have foot and knee issues. Well, these Ikebukuro are $100 more than the similar model I first bought 10 years ago. For $400, these shoes should feel *flawless *. To my surprise, my toes bump up against the toe box, and my narrow heel lifts out of the back. Not sure what shoes will now replace my beloved Finn Comforts, but I am hugely disappointed.

These shoes are very wide and they slip up and down on my heel. I’ve returned them.

Ikebukuro, whoever you are - please make this in grey! First time with this brand. Excellent support, great quality leather. Stinkin' cute, too. Most I've ever paid for "walking shoes" but it's worth it. Others colors are too dark -- PUH-LEEZ, make this in a dove grey color !

I love these shoes ( Ikebukuro ) and have several pair in different colors. They offer good support and are wide enough to accommodate the bunion on my right foot and although expensive last a long time! They are the most comfortable shoes I own. This pattern is "Jeans Strada" a great color of blue which goes with so much and nice for summer . I will mention that the material is shiny and does reflect light which isn't a problem indoors but out in the sunshine might be a little annoying. I just received them so haven't had a chance to really give them a try outdoors other than just for a few minutes.

I have just written a long review about another pair of Finn Comfort Ikebukuro so will keep this short. I love them and have several pair as they offer such good support and I have foot and back issues. This style , the Blue Atlantic Patagonia, is very cute and good for summer.

I have been wearing the Finn Comfort Ikebukuro style for several years now and they are wonderful!! I have slightly wide feet and have been wearing a 5 (UK-7/1/2 USA ) for a long time but the bunion on my right foot is getting a little worse so the shoes are feeling tight and rubbing. I went up to a 5/12 UK and that was better. I did need to add a very thin flat liner because the shoes were actually a bit roomy. I use prescription orthotics. These shoes offer more support than any others I have tried over the years and believe me I have tried many!!! And since I am an octogenarian ( 80+ ) that is a lot of shoes!! They not only help my feet but my knees and back too. Zappos ( always a wonderful experience shopping with them ) had only a very limited supply in my size and I didn't really like some of the color choices. I was a bit skeptical about the " Platin Maglia " color but took a chance and actually they have worked out well. There are so many different colors incorporated in the color that the shoes go with many different colored outfits. Thanks Zappos for being there for me when I need you! A.V. Wood

Awesome shoes! Expensive and worth it. Superior support. Superior toe box room Superior Quality. All leather except for sole, shoe strings and eyelets. Basic shoe with basic practical style. Not fancy. Great for travel. I have 3 pair of Finn Ikeburo shoes - red, navy and silver

These have been life changing shoes for me, a young woman with constant foot pain. The only footwear I can consistently walk/stand in for periods of time without substantial discomfort are Birkenstock sandals and Dansko clogs. Regular athletic sneakers (even Hokas!) lack sufficient support for me. These Finn Comfort shoes feel like an enclosed Birkenstock sandal - the sole feels similarly on the bottom of foot (I usually wear these without socks). I had high hopes for Birkenstock’s Bend sneaker. These sneakers are far superior in comfort. Bottom line: I cannot believe I spent this much money on a single pair of shoes but these have been 100% worth it for me. It also appears you can also purchase new insoles for these so I hope this will prolong the life of this admittedly very expensive shoe. Style: I’m younger than 40 and in a perfect world I wish I could be wearing more stylish footwear. It would be nice to have a more narrow toe box, for example. I’d rather be able to wear a cute ballet flat or loafer sometimes. But the comfort of these shoes has won out.

My last pair of this exact style was 10 years ago. They are still perfect but I wanted a different pattern. Wonderful shoe company

I loved, love, love this shoe, but it is too wide and slips on my left heel. I wish the design allowed for tighter lacing, but the spacing between the lacing is quite narrow and so are my heels. I tried all sorts of lacing options, but to no avail. I returned the shoes, but I'm grieving them..... This is a common problem for me with Finn Comfort shoes. Sometimes they work, sometimes they don't.

Finn shoes are awesome in quality, fit and durability. The Ikebukuro style brings a smile because of the traditional style that makes the shoe so comfortable. Love the roomy toe box. I have three pair in joyful colors, red, platinum and this new navy which makes the traditional style upbeat. Love this new swirling pattern of of navy suede and gloss leather with the plain suede on the dorsal of the toe area. Traditional white shoe strings complement the white sole. Glad to see this upscale addition to tradition. Keep this fabulous Finn Ikebukuro traditional shoe. High quality craftsmanship with leather inner and outer construction matters.

These are excellent comfort yet cute and sporty. Go with everything. Size 7 med perfect but I keep 7 1/2 for socks.

These are my best shoes. Cute, sporty but more they help sore feet to feel better. In the past I even bought a half size larger for wearing socks but I love the 7 mediums.

Gosh, I really want to love these. They’re oh so comfy and supportive. I can see they’re made well. I just don’t like the way style looks on *my* feet and legs as well as I’d hoped. I’m keeping them because they are so very comfortable. And I know I will end up trying them with jeans next winter. Maybe that will change my mind.

This it's the third time I purchased these sneakers. They are fabulous. Great arch support and overall comfort.

Very comfortable right out of the box. Very happy with my purchase.

I have wide flat feet with PF and neuromas, so buying shoes are a nightmare. Finn Comforts have truly been great for me. I’ve bought the Gomera and Barbuda styles with great success and comfort. When I needed a sneaker, I bought a pair of Hokas per recommendation from my Podiatrist. Those are good, really good, but rather Frankenstein-ish on my feet. I was aware of the Ikebukuro but the price kept me away until now. I bought these with concern as I have very wide feet but Zappos makes returns really easy. My goodness, out of the box, these fit great! Like I’m Cinderella! I took my time with them, made sure we weren’t honeymooning before writing this review because comfort/support is paramount but cost is always a consideration. Therefore, in all honesty, if you’re looking for support, comfort, and assurance that your feet aren’t going to hurt horribly at the end of a long day, take a chance on these beauties. Plus, these are CUTE! A coworker asked me about them and said ‘when you have small feet any shoe looks good’. I’m a size 9.5W! So I get great support in a sneaker that encapsulates my foot in comfort AND it looks small and cool. Yay!

Size as expected Really cute pattern

Searching for a athleisure summer shoe- literally tried 20 pairs of shoes (thank you Zappos) I have Achilles issues on my right and a knee arthritis on my left. Supportive shoes are imperative. These shoes are a dream. Comfortable on first wear, Cute, Soft Leather and just the right width. They are a pretty penny but worth it!

Really funky and fabulously comfortable Too pricey

Rocker soles are the best if you need arch support and good for your ankles. it takes time to get used to, but they are amazing for long walks. I have been sizing up in the Finn Comfort brand. I usually wear 8-8 1/2, in the Finn"s I have been needing a 41 or a 6.5UK sizing. its a challenge to get the sizing right, but these shoes are well made and worth the troubles.

These just became my new favorite shoes. I have foot issues as a former dancer, and these are perfect. True to size, adorable, and most importantly COMFORTABLE without being obviously so. LOVE!

I’ve been wearing Finn Comfort sandals for 20 years — the only sandals recommended by my podiatrist after foot surgery. This is the first time I tried a closed toe/heel style because I worried toe box would be too narrow. I sized up half size from sandals and the fit is perfect. The “Schwarz Doodle” multi-color has brought DAILY compliments.

I have a narrow foot and the width of these shoes is Medium. but the extraordinary workmanship is such that I can't take them off. If you can tell me whether Finn Comfort makes a narrow shoe I would be interested in that for sure. In the mean time I will really enjoy these shoes so much even though they are a little wide for me. The cork sole is just so stabilizing! Thank you Diana Lanier
