Customer Reviews Taos Footwear Star

Very comfortable for a sneaker and super cute however the arch support is not in the exact place where I need it.

Normally wear an 8 1/2 - ordered a 9. Too small. May be ordering a 9.5 and a 10.

I am a standard size 9. My toes came all of the way to the end. They are adorable, a pretty blue. I did think the fabric was very stiff, but I imagine they would break in. Im sending them back.

I bought these in a 9.5 because everyone was raving about how good they were and they didn't bother their bunions at all. They did say they ran small and to order 1/2 size larger. I did and when they arrived they were way to narrow, I really couldn't get them on but when I did they did bother my feet. I then ordered the same size in a Wide but that didn't work either. I could feel the stitching and knew it would irritate my foot. I do see how they could be comfortable for some people. I really wished they worked out but they didn't and I had to return both pairs.

They are very cute and quite comfortable. I bought them for a lighter sneaker to travel in and I believe they will fit the bill. Could have used a tad more arch support but I have very high arches for people with normal arches they should be fine.

I like these and I get compliments on how cute these are but they are not for walking long distances. My arches and bottoms of my feet start to get sore.

Very cute shoe. Full size too small, at least, so must return.

These just didn't work for me, although I wanted them to. I ordered two sizes but they were a little short and the heel rubbed my achilles wrong. My 21 year old daughter thought they were not attractive, but I think they are pretty cute. The arch support is gigantic and unusual for a shoe. Usually I really like and need more arch support, but this was not hitting me in quite the right spot, so I felt the support too much. I am usually a WW or D width and these worked well for me width wise.

I ordered 1/2 sz larger at Zappos recommendation ( I appreciate that Zappos customizes recommendations and suggestions from your previous orders).

Loved these shoes but the tonque of the shoe I received seemed to be bunched a bit and was not comfortable on my foot. Great arch support and the style is great. But, they are going back.

I love the way these look but there was some stitching on the inside that was rubbing against my toe and I knew it would become so uncomfortable that I would end up not being able to wear them. I was so disappointed to,have to send them back.

Love these! Very cute and provide the arch support I need.

Have been looking for a replacement for a pair of black D-Kay Simple sneakers. Was hoping these might do it. Nope. These do avoid the "brand advertisement", but they still aren't quite hip enough. Also, the black really isn't black. It is a muddy color that looks like a blend of black, gray and brown. They do have pretty good arch support. A little bit better than moderate, but not excellent.

These shoes were true to size & width for me. I take an 8.5 in closed toe shoes, but can do an 8 in open toed. Arch support and comfort were excellent, like all Taos shoes. Style was very cute, color was sage and it was exactly like photo-a faded light green. I wish I could’ve kept these, but they came up too high on the ankle bone on my left foot because I have foot drop and my walking has altered. I gave 4 Stars cause I they really are cute & comfy!

I really wanted these to work, as I absolutely loved the style and design. However, they were too wide for me, as I have narrow feet.

Adorable but very uncomfortable because the arch was in the wrong place

Amazing arch support and cushion! Unfortunately, it tapered down extremely thinly at the forefoot and won't be comfortable enough for traveling in Europe.

Ordered a 9 which I often wear for comfort even though my feet measure 8-8.5 every time they are checked. The 9 fit well. The shoe is a nice simple style, nothing exciting, but the color of the blue/denim is really nice (although the light laces make it seem a bit more casual than I was hoping for). I had to return these, though, because the interior of the heel is a fairly rough canvas and they rubbed enough to make my heel sore with just trying them on and walking a little inside the house.

These are really cute shoes. I definitely agree you should order a half size up. I'm ususally an 8.5W and found that the 9W fit well. Unfortunately, the insole is a bit higher then I like so I decided to return.

I ordered the 9W and it was true to size. Toe box was wide. Not as stylish as I wanted.

I was so excited to get these shoes. I ordered a half size larger upon the recommendations in the reviews but the shoes were too wide and spread out as I walked. I will try again with my normal size.

These shoes are comfortable with my history of plantar fasciitis and problems with adequate arch support. I have always been sad that I couldn’t buy this style of shoe due to the frequent lack of arch support in other brands so I was ecstatic to find these. And I’m really happy I got them. Comfortable and so cute!

I liked these but... not breathable and my right toe needed more room. the toe box was a bit tight on my right foot. I wear and 8.5 or 9 depending on the shoe. I wear a M width but my foot is a bit wide. I would have kept them as they are cute and the color choose are versatile. Too bad they seeemed a bit short / tight in the right toe. I was looking for something to use as an alternative to a sneaker when traveling. They may have worked on a day with less walking, a sneaker would be required for more serious walking. Returning. May keep a Keen that is similar. Debating! :)

Really cute style. Seems to have good support. I did order half a size up and glad I did

My reason for purchasing these sneakers was to own a comfortable walking shoe for travel abroad. I feared they were too heavy and snug for this. If my goal was a shoe to wear around town and not all day, I’d have kept them—they are attractive, sturdy and well-made. The insert adds good support. But, the heaviness gave me pause. So I returned them.
