Customer Reviews Taos Footwear Crave

I had these already in red, so I knew I’d love them. Super comfy and can wear for over 10,000 step days!

I have been eyeing these boots for two years. Finally hit 'buy' and they are absolutely beautiful. The left one feels great - unfortunately, due to an old injury in my right foot I believe, the right one is not comfortable at all. I don't think this is the fault of the boots though and, although I will have to return much to my disappointment, I still recommend these boots highly.

I generally wear a 9-9.5, and the 40 was perfect, with regular or not thick socks. These are amazingly comfortable. I have triangle feet: narrow heel with bunions, and finding shoes that work both places is a trick. These work! I have walked several miles with no issues. I went back and bought two more colors after the first.

Most comfortable boots I’ve owned. Didn’t take more than a couple hours to break them in. Leather and construction seem very high quality.

Love!

I usually wear a 38 and the 39s in these fit great. They do run a bit narrow, but not as narrow as an actual narrow shoe. I had a difficult time finding boots that were tall and these are just what I needed to tuck in my jeans and keep chiggers out! I like the heel height-I find a bit of a heel more comfortable than a flat shoe. I bought the grey, which is more if a distressed brown and they are very attractive. The ankle part is comfortable/flexible out of the box so I don't anticipate any blisters. I put arch supports in, but have to do that in all my shoes.

OUTSTANDING! Love love these boots!! Look great and extremely comfortable especially for a boot. A little pricey but very well made. What was disappointing and I experience this many times with Zappos, is that they often do not have the size or color that I want. I wanted to order the black oiled and the camel but again...out of stock. And I did not see a button to click to notify me if or when they do get it in. And many times they don’t get it in. Shipping is always fast and they do have easy returns. Grab these boots soon cause they might be out of stock!

I ordered a 39 and 40 after reading other reviews. I wear a 8.5 in boots and 8 in sandals. The 39 fit great with socks and the 40 was way too loose so sending it back. The boot is very comfortable with room for my toes. I will be wearing them on the motorcycle and taking them on vacation. The sole is a bit stiff in walking around my house but I feel that will soften up as I walk in them, not uncomfortable, just stiff. They look great with ankle length jeans also. The color brown will go with everything and I think the grey (40 going back) would have worked also. I own a pair of Taos sandals and those are awesome for comfort so I'm thinking Taos will be my "go to" brand for walking comfort going forward.

I needed a pair of boots to wear in Scotland that would be stylish, comfortable, versatile, and good to wear in rain. My feet are slightly narrow with high arches, so i was intrigued by the many reviews mentioning comfort and good support. Wore them today straight out of the box with mid-weight socks and walked 2 miles. Wow. They were great. The foot bed was more molded than expected - no padding, but comfortable with great support. No pinching or blisters anywhere. I wear a 7 1/2 and the 39 fit perfect. The grey is more "taupe" colored - kind of brownish grey. I wore them with black jeans and they looked like a soft black color, but I can see how they are "chameleon" and match what is around them. :-) They seem sturdy enough to hold up in rain and wet conditions, but I'll put them to the test.

I LOVE these boots! I swear them all the time! The heel is the perfect height. They look great with jeans or capris. Glad I go them!

I love these boots...as evidenced by the fact that I have three pairs now :) I just got the Bordeaux and love the color.

Great boot just looking for a more funky style.

I love these boots! I have a difficult time putting on boots and some shoes. These are easy to put on with the zippers. Fit is perfect.

I had a 38 because I usually wear a 7, but decided to try the 37...so I sized down and they fit great! Love the teal color. I’ll get the black if they go on sale:)

Very cute boots. I love the style and get lots of compliments. I liked them so well I bought a pair for my mother. I work a minimum of 10-12 hours a day. I wear them all day with no discomfort. I was wearing Dansko shoes every day and I was having so much foot pain. I had to switch to something else to give my feet a break/change. The combat style is really cute and in-style right now. I wear them with my dress pants and with my skirts. They are true to length and the width is great without being too tight. I do feel they are wider with wear than when I first got them. I have a narrow foot. My only complaint is that they make my feet smell. I use baby powder and cologne spritz but for whatever reason, these shoes make my feet smell. I also wish that the insole had more cushion. I have skinny, bony feet. It’s not bad and most people probably wouldn’t even notice. I think I will add a cushioned insole for added comfort. I do this with most of my shoes anyway. I have orthotics but they do not fit comfortably in these shoes, but I really don’t need them with these shoes.

Probably one of the best shoe purchases I have ever made. These make me so happy and make anything I wear just a bit elevated in style. I just love them. I ordered up a size and wear with thick socks and couldn't be happier. My 88 year old mother just went on and on about them every time she saw me in them. She loved them so much that she just ended up purchasing her own pair...in red! Boy does she look cute in them! I have the Burgundy and they are just the perfect shade of Burgundy and my mother's red pair are a nice deep red. Do I need another pair in a different color, no...but will I get another pair in a different color...it's very likely!

O M G. There are NO words!!!! Oh wait- there is 1- SCRUMPTIOUS!!!!! Slipped them on right out of the box and ahhhhhh. SO comfortable. I got the teal, absolutely gorgeous. I had attempted to get this color on Taos website but they are sold out. So thank you Zappos, for turning heartache into heaven. I usually wear 7.5, ordered the 38 & it’s a perfect fit with a smidge of wiggle room. If I want to add an extra layer of socks next winter, no problem. I plan to wear these through the summer I love them so much. The side zip makes on/off so easy. If you ask me-(and you did)- they are like dessert for your feet??

So. I didn't want to like these boots. Out of the box, they seemed a little masculine, a little lumberjack-ish, and rather casual. But once I put them on, the siren song of comfort started up. I have a troubled right foot and these boots fit right away. No rubbing. No pain. AND they made me quite a bit taller (I'm 5'1"ish). These are the Blue Ink shade, which is a dark navy-black. Now I'm plotting new outfits to wear them with. Worth every penny.

I am very pleased with my Taos Crave boots in Teal, size 40, my normal size. If you want to wear very thick socks, perhaps order a size up, otherwise your usual size should be fine. Let me say that this is the most I've paid for a pair of shoes/boots. I saw these boots in an ad on Facebook earlier in Fall 2018. They immediately caught my eye; they were cute and a divergence from my usual style. I didn't buy them right away because I didn't want to spend the money and didn't feel like I could justify another pair of boots. However, I saw them a few more times and started thinking about pulling the trigger. I couldn't decide between the teal and burgundy, and wasn't sure if I could pull off the style. I consulted my fashion advisers (my 13- and 9-year-old daughters) and was given the thumbs-up. They both thought the boots were cute and would look good on me (which they confirmed when I put them on once they arrived). I'm glad I went with the teal, it's a bit more unique and it is really a gorgeous color. I've worn them with skinny jeans and tights with a skirt. I even wore them to a symphony concert this past weekend. They are comfortable, and as a middle-aged mom, they also make me feel cool, nonchalant, and edgy without appearing trendy. Overall, I'm very happy with the purchase.

There aren't too many shoes that I can put on and wear without going through the pains of breaking in. But, these boots have broken that mold. I wear a 7-1/2 and often have to order a 1/2 size bigger because I have a fairly wide foot. I rolled the dice and ordered the 7/7-1/2 and they fit perfectly. I'm looking forward to wearing a warm, comfortable and stylish boot during my visit to colder country next week. I was hoping for a boot that would be comfortable to walk in all day out of the box and so far, these have delivered. I ordered they grey, and love them.

These boots are a dream. Comfortable right out of the box. I only returned the blue because I liked the black better. The Ink are beautiful!! I loved the black more. If I had a million dollars I would buy all the colors. I have been looking for black boots for 2 years and these ARE IT! Love these boots. Worth every penny. Don't debate, buy these boots!

At age 57, I never ever thought I could pull off wearing a "combat boot" style. I watched these boots for a very long time --- and debated if I was too old for them. But, I finally took the plunge --- just to see how they looked and felt. Quite honestly THE best boot I've ever worn. Comfortable right out of the box. And they make me feel . . . not so much younger, but strong -- and happy! 5 STARS!

These are spectacular boots. I saw a woman hiking up our local butte (hard, rocky climb!) and she was wearing these. I asked her the brand and found the very pair on Zappos. Even though the lady hiker found these trail-worthy, I think I'll wear them about town. They are really good looking. My feet are narrow so I was glad to have laces for adjustment and also the inside zipper for quick on and off.

Wearing them right now. I’ve never put a pair of boots on with such comfort before. My feet aren’t burning or hurting. They fit true to size and are most comfortable. The Teal color of the boots is stunning. I’ll wear these until they’re falling apart. Well, well worth the money.

I really liked the color, style and fit of this boot. Sadly, my feet have issues due to RA and they won't work for all the walking I need to do in them. I'm sad to return them.
