Customer Reviews Taos Footwear Plim Soul

I really wanted to like the shoe, but it was very stiff and heavier than I wanted for a summer shoe. I don’t want to have to break a shoe in, because you never know... returning these. Thank you, Zappos!

These seemed to fit a little bigger than other taos shoes I have.

The arch support is awesome and the shoes look great - but - the shoe is quite rigid and my heels slide up and down, and if I lace them tightly enough to mitigate that, the top of the tongue cuts into the front of my leg. I compared them to my Supergas and indeed, the cut of the Taos shoe is much higher in the front. Really unfortunate - these would otherwise be my absolute top favorite. Can’t seem to find a sneaker that works (Supergas don’t have the same support, but so far they’re the best I’ve found.)

Cute shoes but didn't work for me. I ordered larger sizes due to other reviews and I would advise others to heed to that advice. Was disappointed they didn't work for me. Thankful that Zappos is so great in accepting returns of unworn shoes.

Nice looking shoe -- I have high arches and foot was too high for the shoe. The insole was removable, but for my purposes, I needed insole to remain. Looks durable and comfortable -- just didn't work with my foot.

These shoes are amazingly cute and the style is on trend. The fit as far as length was true to size. However, if you have bunions or neuromas and need extra toe space, skip these. They are quite tight across the toe area regardless of how loose you make the laces.

Very cute shoe in a great denim color... I wear a 7 1/2 ... The size 8 fit good... except the heel slid up and down when i walked. The 7 1/2 I ordered did the same thing.

Arch support was better than most but was off for me. It hit in a weird spot. Wish they fit better, they are cute!

I was really disappointed with these shoes. I didn’t find the arch support to be that great and the wide spread laces made my narrow feet look very wide. The charcoal was a great color though.

These are the coolest shoes to look at. Would have been great for teaching if they had fit better. I usually wear 8/8.5 but even the 8.5 felt tight on my slightly larger left foot. Just right on my right one. When I sized up to 9 they felt just too big and clunky and hurt a little where canvas folded into top of foot while walking. I tried multiple pairs. In the end I didn’t think they would improve enough to justify the price. Fantastic footbed though. Supportive for plantar fasciitis.

i normally wear a 7.5 shoe and an 8.5 running shoe... I ordered the 7.5 but was too small. Ordered the 8, too small. settled with the 8.5 and is a good fit. The canvas is a little stiff, compared to a leather shoe i guess. the arch support is pretty good. The style is cute and fun. I did switch out the arched insert with a super cozy one and now they are nice and comfy! I hope the canvas loosens up a bit.

It was a little stiff and not as comfortable as I expected.

I tried two sizes and neither was comfortable. Have narrow heel and shoe came up too high on heel and rubbed.

Cute show with great arch support, but its heavy and stiff. I might have kept it if it came in a wide.

My new favorite tennies. I ordered size 10 but had to exchange for size 9.5. I wear orthodics but these shoes have amazing arch support so that I don’t need them. I want a pair in every color.

This is second time I've ordered this shoe and both times there have been strange green stains on them. There is nothing green in the packaging that could have transferred, so I have know idea what the deal is. I'll try one more time.

Boy are these nicely made shoes! and nice style. HOWEVER, Taos needs to be better with quality control. The dye maybe didn't dry quickly enough on the entire toe area. You can see a pattern. So with regret, I'm returning these gray pair. Really nice sneaker though.

Nice shoe. Excellent arch support. The top of the shoe laces come up really high and digs into my foot a bit. If I tie the laces loosely it seems to be more comfortable. Would probably return if hadn't already worn them. Would have saved the $ and bought a pair of Keds or something else.

These are super cute, well constructed, fit my wide toe/narrow heel foot well, but the hump in the arch support hits me in the wrong place, falling under my heel. Too bad, I wanted to love these.

These shoes are super cute but they're heavy! Sorry to have to return them

The arch support is weirdly close to the heel. It doesn't line up with the arch of my foot. They are really stiff as well.

I didn't end up keeping these because I found them stiff but if you are in the market know that they run quite short. I usually am an 8 or an 8 1/2 in shoes (more often the former) and I had to go up to a 9 so that my toes where not touching the front

Would have been perfect if it had better arch support

Arch support not comfortable and toe box too narrow. Walked 1 mile in nyc and regretted the shoe choice after about 2 blocks. The footbed is really hard and caused some knee discomfort from sidewalk impact. Plus my pinky toes both rubbed uncomfortably (was wearing no show socks). The style was exactly what I wanted but the comfort level made the shoe a fail. I did order a half size up based on reviews.

I wanted to love these shoes as I think they are super cute and would go with anything. The biggest issue was they squeaked like crazy as I walked around my house. They also weren’t as comfortable as others. I’ll be keeping the Naturalizers and Keds sneakers instead.
