Customer Reviews Taos Footwear Star

I ordered these shoes because I need serious support and wear custom orthodics. Turns out the arch support is so amazing in these I don't need them. The shoe is very firm but comfortable. And on top of all that they are really cute.

I LOVE Taos tennis shoes. They are comfortable, styling, and have adequate arch support.

Super cute shoes. Wear them for errands around town. Good arch support. I need to wear thin socks with them otherwise the laces aren't long enough.

I like all Taos shoes as they have more arch support than most shoes. And the fact that they are stylish, light weight sneakers - wahoo!

I have a narrow heel and have a very hard time finding shoes that fit. These sneakers fit perfectly. I'm between a size 9 1/2 and a 10 and ordered the 10. The arch support is great!

I'm so glad to have found some canvas shoes that have a good arch support. I can wear these all day long, and they feel great.

I ordered a 1/2 size up after reading other reviews. Replaced my flat (Ked like) sneakers with these -with their fab arch support. Also have a similar pair in black. Worth the money. My feet are thanking me.

I have been searching a long time for cute, comfortable, supportive shoes and the search is finally over! I have high arches and tend to have leg pain when I walk. Not in these. So comfortable right out of the box! I did listen to Zappos and reviews and ordered a 1/2 size up from what I normally wear so ordered a 9.5w instead of 9w and they fit perfectly. Would love if the laces were like an inch longer, but for the amount of comfort and support I can deal with the laces.

The canvas is a little stiff the first time I wore them but nothing crazy. very comfortable and a good neutral color.

This shoes are comfortable. Good arch support. I purchased half a size bigger as suggested and they fit comfortably.

I ordered a half size up based on other reviews. My toes have a little room, but I wouldn't want to go smaller. The style is super cute. They are thin on the bottom, but that is part of the look. The arch helps compensate for it. I chose the beige color to wear with khaki pants. They match great.

I am writing an addendum to a previous review of this shoe after having worn them for a week. I love them! At first it felt like the shoe under my toes was too thin, but I don't notice that at all. Very comfortable. The arch is still unbelievably supportive. I don't have to wear my own orthotics. I thought that they would be a little too long, as I usually wear a 5.5 and I bought a 6 because they didn't have any 5.5. After wearing them for a week, it doesnt feel at all like they are too long. They broke in nicely. It has been impossible for me to find such cute fashionable sneakers that are this comfortable. In fact, I just bought a second, identical pair in case they disappear when I need them in the future! Hey, Taos, I could really use some closed toe sandals...

I loved these shoes straight out of the box. Absolutely no breaking in period. I bought them after reading good reviews when searching for sneakers to wear on a walking-intensive vacation. I wore them for two weeks straight while walking nonstop, and they were divine. Super supportive, very comfortable, and they looked cute.

These are super comfortable! They were just slightly tight in the toe box and hit my ankle bone when I first tried them on, but after an hour around the house, they felt great! I wore them all the next day and very comfortable. Really great arch support! Super cute shoes too. Love these!

Ordered these for my bff for Christmas and she loves them. She said they were the most comfortable sneakers she has ever owned.

I wanted to love these. The arch support is amazing; however, they ran too wide for my narrow feet and sadly I will have to return them.

Well-made witchy great style just as you would expect from Taos. The arches are so contoured that it didn’t quite fit my foot shape. I switched them out the insert of my Vionics loafer insert and voilà.. a perfect fit. My hint is: if the insert is not quite right for you, just switch it out for one that is and you’ll be good to go. Great shoes!

These were comfortable right out of the box but I had to return as they hit in a very sore place on the side of my toe. I have difficulty with any shoe that rubs this spot. The fit, however, was just as expected.

I love these shoes so much this was my second pair. Fantastic arch support and great for walking long distances. I normally wear a size 9 but got these is a 10. Almost as comfy as running shoes but easier to dress up a bit.

These shoes are great! I love them. Please listen to others and order them a size or half size larger. It's a must!!! They absolutely run small, no doubt. If you know that ahead of time, you'll end up with shoes that fit perfectly. I wear a women's 8 sometimes, usually an 8.5. I bought these in a 9 and they're very slightly snug. I got a wide width--if you sometimes wear a wide, definitely get these in wide! Otherwise the medium will be too narrow. They are comfy and cute!

I love this shoe. The arch support is superior and yet it doesn't look orthopedic. They pay particular attention to color and the contrasting stitching is nice. The sizing is smaller than usual. I wear a 10 normally but the Taos shoes don't fit unless I dial it up to 11. One thing I appreciate is that the Taos arch is in a good spot. I'm finding that some styles I used to wear comfortably now have the arch too close to the heel. A shoe saleswoman told me that this is a cost cutting measure having to do with adjusting the footprint when upsizing to the larger sizes.

I am a size 9 and needed a 10 in these. I found the width to be good (I'm medium). Really nice construction and materials. There is break-in time but it's minimal imo. I have 58 year old feet without serious issues and these are quite comfortable. Love the styling and the color (blue washed canvas) is just as pictured. Looks just like denim to me. They seem durable but I haven't had them long. Overall I'm happy with them.

My favorite shoe ever! (And I’m 59!) They are very supportive and stable even though they are fabric. They also have rubber on the bottom for excellent grip and more stability. I am getting very frustrated with OTHER shoe companies using only extremely lightweight soles that make me slip as soon as I step off the carpet! At my age I especially need to stay on my feet!

I have 7 pairs of these shoes. They have great arch support. They have so many cool colors to choose from.

I liked the look and fit of this shoe but unfortunately I ended up sending it back. It squeaked!
