Customer Reviews Taos Footwear Star

These are cute as all get-out. I ordered a larger size, as many suggested. I went up 1/2 size and they are still 1/2 size too small, though i only have on thin footies. Order a full size larger if you'll wear barefoot or w thin socks or footies. If you’ll wear any thicker socks, you'd better go up 1 1/2 sizes. Hard to know.

Love the color and style, but these shoes just were not comfortable on me. Disappointing.

Love the look of these but for a wide they were narrow.

Size up a full size: The website says to go up a size and I suggest a full size. I only went up a half size and it still too tight. Love the look and quality.

Im not impressed with this version of the otherwise comfy Taos sneakers. The construction obviously cuts corners - instead of an upper that constructed in several pieces, it looks like just one big blob over the forefront, the sole looks the same but squeaks like crazy on tile floors, the canvas is stiff and hard and the heel is loose. Boo.

I bought a pair of these shows in 2018. They were a tiny bit tight at first, and a half size larger than I normally wear, per recommendations. At the time. I kept them because I wanted to wear without socks. They quickly became my favorite shoe. They did stretch out perfectly for my fit. Eventually I worn holes in the toe area and have recently tried reordering, the same shoe, same size, different colors. Either the shoe was too big, at the size I bought last time, or fit was too small at a half size down. Even tried Taos website, among others. Same. Sadly,I’ve returned them all and give up on this shoe.

shoe is uncomfortable in the arch, and heel slips with each step.

I was very surprised that I didn't like the shoes after all of the glowing reviews. For my feet, the toe box was too large. The sole was squeaky on tile floors , which was annoying. And lastly, I didn't care for the style. They look more like skateboarder shoes.

I wanted these shoes to work for me. But they hurt where they crease across the top of the shoe when I walked. Arch support was great and the shoe is cute but I had to return them.

Really loves the floral pattern but so stiff on the sole

these were uncomfortable for days of lots of walking. Loved the look but after 2 weeks my feet still hurt.

My normal shoe is 7.5-8. I have narrow heel and wide toebox. I ordered the Taos Moc Star, Star, and Starburst – size 8 in the first and 8.5 in the others. Q&As indicated that all the Taos sneakers are similar shape/sizing, but it was too hard to see design differences online so I got one of each. The shape of the foot that Taos uses is straighter and narrower than my own, especially in the toebox. The size 8 was too short; my big toe bumped the end. The 8.5 was long enough, but still too narrow and low-volume in toebox for my big toe. The Star sole seemed to have a bit less cushioning than the Moc Star. All three have gone back. I ended up getting a Keen sneaker.

I did not like the material. It seemed like it would not hold up to use.

This is a weird shoe. I ordered a 1/2 size bigger per reviews but they just fit weird. Heavy shoe, tight in some areas, loose in others. Strange insert with a 1/2 inch lift in the heal. Really liked the look of the shoe, but knew they would wear bad and give me blisters, so I returned them.

Beautiful sneaker & comfortable - but runs very wide.. Unfortunately I had to return them.

Uncomfortable hard feeling. I kept on for a couple hours in my house and when I took them off I swear I felt my feet sigh in relief. I bought another pair of Taos in the past and I really don't like those either so not sure what I was thinking...maybe they had improved since these were more lightweight? Nope, not for me. The design is super cute but I prefer comfort over cuteness nowadays.

I bought two pairs of these sneakers. The one that was my usual size was too small and the one that was a half size larger was too big. Also, they were very stiff for a canvas shoe. The arch support was almost too much. I returned both pairs. Too bad because they were exactly the style I was looking for.

They don't fit right... feel quite uncomfortable.

So disappointed, as I wanted to love these and believed all the reviews. First, they arrived just in a random cardboard box, saying that the original box had been destroyed. There were marks on the sides of the white rubber and a stain on the cloth shoe. I did love the style, but the sizing is way off. I usually wear a 7.5, so ordered an 8. It's about a half size too small. I don't even want to try a half size larger because there is no way that would make these comfortable anyway. I can't imagine wearing these all day doing sightseeing.

Never wore them sneakers where much to narrow, even though I did order wide width

These sneakers look so cute, but too small. I ordered an 8 but they felt more like a 7.5. The sole was also somewhat stiff, but I would have kept them if they had fit better. I am generally a big fan of the Taos footbed.

These were not comfortable.

I wanted to like these shoes. But they hurt. There was a seam on the top of both of them that rubbed the top of my foot in a very painful fashion. So back they went

Stiff and so similar to other brand's styles...can't tell the difference. Too narrow for my average foot and little to no arch support. Might as well be wearing Keds!

I was so disappointed with these shoes. They have no arch support and feel weirdly small/tight. I never need to size up really but these just squeezed my feet in weird places. They did not rub on my heels or anything but just didn't support my foot right at all. I thought they would get more comfortable with time, but they did not. I have since donated them.
