I loved these shoes! They are colorful and mostly comfortable, just too narrow in the toe box for me. I was so so disappointed to have to return them.

Felt true to size and width (7.5M) and the charcoal gray color is just what I was looking for. The canvas fabric is really nice and I dig the styling; the shoe is well made and has some heft to it. The removable footbed looks and feels like an orthotic and has solid arch support. I would like just a little more cushion in the footbed. I wanted to love these but the heel is too uncomfortable for me. The portion around the heel has cushion, which is nice, but it's angled forward in such a way that it feels like it's stabbing me in my Achilles. If it weren't for the heel issue, I would give these a solid 4 stars across the board and I wouldn't have to send them back.

I can’t believe people say these are comfortable. I’m starting to think these reviews are fake. I have blisters on my heels and my big toes hurt. And this was they third time I wore them and I’m done. They are very cute but the fabric that rubs on your heals is rough canvas and it’s horrible. They run very small and are very expensive. What a let down.

Wow, these are just as uncomfortable as Vans for twice the price. The insole, while thick, is hard as a rock. The canvas rubs on the outer toe, and the top of the foot. I put a ball-of-foot cushion in there, still, no way. Hugely disappointing.

I love these. I had a similar pair that I wore out - something I very rarely do. Cute and comfy, and will generally work year-round. Very happy with the purchase.

I wear a size 7 and purchased a 7 1/2 and it was perfect. Great arch support for a sneaker. Very well made.

These are my second pair of this style. I absolutely love the arch support, the room in the toe box and the style. My normal shoe size is 7-1/2 but, after some trial and error, I learned that I needed an 8-1/2 in these. No heel slippage at all. The sole may seem a bit stiff at first, but softens up quickly with wear.

These didn’t work for me the heel slipped and I couldn’t keep them on. The arch support felt fantastic and they are super cute, wish they would have worked.

Loved the fall colors of this show. The left shoe was too short for my foot. Really like the comfort of the right shoe and wish I could have worn them.

Extremely comfortable. I went up a half size from Taos sandals that I love based on other reviews and fit is perfect with socks. Great arch support.

These shoes were true to size and well made. The arch support was just a little too much for me, so I just tilted the insole a little bit to the outer side of the shoe and it was great. I love the three colors used in the shoe and think they are very cute.

Why did I listen to the reviews saying to order a 1/2 size up? These were just a little too big—I should’ve ordered my usual size. (Cute shoes though!)

I always get a half size large in Taos shoes. I own about ten pair between booties and all. I love these tennis with jeans! Color true to picture.

I’m really happy that I decided to order these. I should be a 10.5 wide, but most shoes don’t carry half sizes above 10. I was excited to see that Taos does. That said, I’m so glad I read other reviews saying to size up a half size. I purchased an 11 wide and they fit perfectly. The width is great with plenty of room in the toe box. My feet are only wide across the bunion area and I have narrow heels, so the heel does slip. I think this should improve with wear as the shoes become more flexible. They’re a bit on the heavier side and feel quite substantial. But I think that’s the trade off for durability and arch support. They have much more arch support than you would normally find in this style of shoe. Overall I’m very pleased with my purchase.

I love these tennies! This is my 2nd pair and my first pair I still have--they have out lasted the shoe laces! But I was ready for a new pair. I can wear them with skirts and dresses as well as jeans/pants. I am an elementary teacher who rarely sits at a desk--I need comfortable shoes and these fit the bill. I usually wear an 8-1/2-9 and I found the 9 to be the best fit in these shoes.

With aging feet, yet a desire to look stylish, I'm grateful that this sneaker look is on trend this year. I've really enjoyed Taos sandals in the past, but this is my first venture into Taos sneakers. Took the advice here to size up a 1/2 size. Since I wear a 9, I went with the 9-9 1/2 size choice. Perfect fit with sports socks. Went for a mile walk today and they did the trick. Good balance and traction on wet leaves; no foot complaints. Not as cushy as I would have liked, but that didn't seem to impact the comfort. The arch support is truly amazing. Toe box has plenty of room.
They're not the most fashionable to be honest, but cute enough. I got the dark gray with white soles. They're almost black.

I ordered a slightly biggers size as reviews stated they run small, and I was not disappointed! There is arch support which one would not expect in this type of shoe and over all they are quite comfortable. Time will tell once I start walking in them but for the moment, I really like them! Color is perfect and a very cute style!

This white canvas sneaker is a little pricier than I wanted to pay, but well worth it. Worn all day (2X) through airports & feet never got tired or hot. They look great too. A new favorite.

I loved everything about these shoes, except the squeaked when I walked on a hard surface. I didn’t know if that would go away or not, but I didn’t want to take a chance

Great shoe - a little spendy for sneakers, but if you have to spend more on one part of your body, invest in your feet. (Bloomers, on the other hand, are perfectly fine to be sourced from, say, Costco.) If you like the support of Chacos, these feel similar - the arches are very "present". I can't vote solidly on the sizing... I wobble between a 9 and a 9.5 so I ordered the 9.5 and it's great for me. If you're debating, go with the half size up. I also have a narrow foot, and being able to lace for a custom fit is also terrific.

I love these white tennis shoes. I put animal print shoe strings in them and have gotten lots of compliments. Very sporty and fun.

Fantastic shoe! I have only worn them a few times so far but I LOVE THEM! I normally wear a size 10 and I did end up ordering a half size larger because I noticed people said they ran a little small. They Fit perfectly. And I love the arch support. They didn't give me any blisters like some shoes do when you break them in. I will definitely be ordering another pair in another color.

Love these shoes! I’ve been looking for white sneakers to wear with my casual retirement clothes, but at 67, I didn’t want to look like I was trying to be a kid. I struggled to decide on a size and finally ordered a 7 medium. I wear a 6.5 in my go-to Abeo Bio Metatarsal Pad shoes from the Walking Company to deal with my mid foot arthritis. But I wear a 7.5 in athletic shoes like my Hoka OneOnes that I use for walking. The seven in these was perfect, and the insole is very supportive so I can go without my orthotic insoles that I normally wear in athletic shoes. Since they are canvas, I plan to treat them with Scotchgard asap for a longer life. Already shopping for more colors!
