Customer Reviews Taos Footwear Star

These shoes are super cute and the arch support is great. However, they run exceptionally small. I normally wear a 5 - and sometimes the fives are too big. I ordered a 5.5 in these, and they are way too small. I just went to the local store (which doesn't carry anything smaller than a 6), and I tried a 6.5 on. Unbelievably, they fit! So - I would for sure order up at least one full size.

These are my favorite sneakers bar none. That said, they seem to run small. I wear 7.5-8, depending on the shoe, and I purchased an 8, which fits perfectly. I talked my mother into trying the shoe (she wears a 10-10.5), and she purchased the 10.5 and found it too tight. I do, however, love this shoe. If they were less expensive I would buy them in every color. There was no break-in period, and I can both walk for hours and also sit/stand at my desk at work all day with no discomfort.

I LOVE these shoes. I have wide feet and struggle to find comfortable shoes and these are perfect. You will not regret this purchase.

I am a teacher and on my feet and moving all day long. These are fantastic shoes. Love the extra arch support. I have rheumatoid arthritis and need good shoes. So happy to have found these! Just purchased my second pair. A third color may be in my future.

Great shoes, but YUP, order a half size up!

I love these shoes!!! I have very wide feet with a bunion and these feel fantastic. I'm so excited to find a casual cure sneaker that actually fits! I did order a size up as reviews suggested. The wide with was definitely wide enough. I wish I had enough money to buy 10 pairs and just hoard them!

This is the second pair I ordered or the same shoe, but 1/2 size larger than I normally buy... and these fit perfectly. I like the arch support in these shoes, which is why I buy them, and the plus is that they are cute AND comfortable. I don’t always want to wear running shoes, sometimes you just need a bit of style. These are perfect. Casual but stylish too.

These are adorable, but ordering 1/2 size up didn't work for me. I wear 8.5 and ordered a 9.0 based on reviews. These go back and I'll be ordering my usual size.

I got this style and the Taos Plim Soul both in a 9.5 and this one was super short...I had to double check the box because I thought there was no way it was actually a 9.5, but it was! I guess this style run reallllly small. So, I'll be ordering another of the Plim Soul in a charcoal color then.

Love, love, love the pink Taos! They are super comfortable and I love how they look. Glad I read the reviews and went up a size ... They are exactly what I wanted!

Based on other reviews, I ordered a 7.5 and, just to be safe, an 8. (I'm usually a pretty true 7.) The 7.5 was perfect. The material of these shoes is more substantial than the usual sneaker canvas, and a tad stiffer; for me, this adds to the feeling of support. Arch support is much better than in other sneakers. I walk at least two miles at a time in these shoes, and they feel great. I got the charcoal gray, and I'm happy with the color.

Super pair of stylish sneakers. I ordered half a size larger than usual based on suggestions and that was a good call. Arch support is terrific. I'm delighted with the construction and comfort of this shoe.

I ordered these a couple of weeks ago. Was afraid to wear them for more than a few hours as I have a lot of lower back pain. Yesterday I wore them all day and did a lot of standing on hard floors. Last night I realized I had zero back pain! I was simply amazed. I have finally found my brand! Just ordered a pair of sandals for the summer. These shoes are the most supportive and most comfortable shoes I have ever owned. I cannot say enough good things about these shoes. They are also very stylish which is unusual when searching for good comfortable support shoes. I am hooked! Thanks for such a great product!

I have these in charcoal grey and have worn them for 6 months. They are still super comfy and cute. I have fairly narrow feet and high arches and they have great arch support and fit me really well. I'd definitely recommend these to people who like the aesthetics of Keds or Converse, but want to treat their feet to something with more support.

I have very wide feet with a bunion and I was so excited that these actually worked!! I finally found a cute casual sneaker that is wide enough! I followed the other reviews and ordered a half size up. So my usual is 7.5W or even 7.5WW but the 8W fit perfectly. These were a little stiff and I thought there would need to be a breaking in period. I wore them to work, on my feet all day and they didn't bother me once! So cute!

Love these shoes. Great arch support. Just what I was looking for. They are a little warmer, than I was looking for. But I will get my wear out of them.

I have 3 pairs and I love them! Great arch support!

Although these shoes already have over 400 reviews I need to add mine as well. I am very satisfies with the Taos Star sneakers. I have chronic plantar fasciitis and I can wear these without my custom orthotics. The arch is supportive enough. It's wonderful not to have to wear ugly clogs in the spring!

These are so cute! I needed a cute shoe that I could walk around Europe in without lugging giant workout shoes with me and these totally fit the bill. Super cute and comfy! I have very flat feet so the arch support in these were way too much. I bought new insoles and they fit perfectly. The insoles pop out very easily so it made trading them out very simple. Some people complain about them being too small but I found if you just loosen the laces, they fit. When I first tried them on, I couldnt get my foot in and I thought they were too small. I loosened the laces and they slipped right on, no problem!

I prefer being barefoot in the house, but when I tried these on, I felt more comfortable in them than out of them. I can’t wait to wear them...

Searched for canvas shoes with good arch support since I have recently have gotten one fallen arch. The arch is good and helps me feel as though I walk "normal".

Good quality shoe. Just did not fit my foot as I was hoping it would.

Very cute shoe!! I normally wear 7-1/2 but ordered these in a size 8 and I’m glad I listened to the reviews. Excellent arch support (removable) I am going to order more colors (I ordered the grey - LOVE)!! I learned a long time ago not to skimp on shoes...

I wanted these shoes to fit so badly as I have friends who rave about them. Unfortunately, they did not (did not look good on my feet). I do recommend you try them out.

Love these shoes! I need shoes with good support and they get a 5 star for comfort and support! I would highly recommend these shoes!
