Customer Reviews Taos Footwear Moc Star

This shoe is super cute and looks great with T-shirt dresses. I purchased the white ones. My right foot is slightly larger than my left one but I went with my regular size which is a 6. I think the 6.5 would have been too big. They are very comfortable!

These shoes are so comfortable. My feet have too many problems to list here, and these felt like a dream right from the box. The heel is a tad too wide for me, but it does not rub or irritate, so I am going with it. These look great and feel great.

I love these shoes. I am am elementary teacher, on my feet all day. Even with my plantar fasciitis, these provide excellent support. I now own these shoes in two colors!

Both shoes in the photo say 8.5 wide. The graphite distressed is a replacement pair. I returned my original 8.5 W graphite distressed because of a tiny flaw and wish I hadn't, because it fit fine. The replacement pair was huge, not at all like the one I returned, or the sage distressed 8.5 W. The photo shows how much bigger the replacement graphite is. Taos must not do quality control for what their factories in China send them. I've asked for another replacement and I hope it will be an actual 8.5 W.

These are so cute, but I remain perplexed as to WHY cute shoes have to have 0 arch support. I had to let go of my beloved Chucks but please Universe send me cute canvas shoes that are good for me and support my feet…that don’t hurt. Please. Pretty please.

This is my new favorite. I have purchased Taos Plim Soul for their comfort, but I think this Moc Star has them beat. I put this pair on, right out of the box…didnt even re-lace them….and wore them all day! The Distressed Sage is a great color. They have a lower-cut profile than I usually wear, but still have good support and stability. Love them!

So excited to find comfy cute canvas sneaks! 8 is my normal size but 8.5 or 9 for sneakers to give room, and 8.5 was perfect. Wide was great even with my narrow heel since you can lace them up snug at the top. The arch support is very noticeable and a real bonus with this style sneaker. Love these!!

Really cute! Go a half size up as the other reviews say, 7.5 fit but my big toe was right there at the end and would be uncomfortable to wear all day. Size 8 gives me plenty of room for my wide foot.

I just purchased my third pair. Great fit, comfortable, stylish, and compliments all the time. Need I say more.

I have such a hard time finding cute sneakers that allow enough room for my orthotics (I have significant LLD). The Customer Service rep helped me weed through all the options of removable insoles, and these are fantastic! The insoles the come with the shoe are themselves incredibly comfortable, but I was so happy with how cleanly they came out, and that the heel is high enough that my orthotics fit without my foot slipping out.

Love the look of this shoe and it ddoes have excellent arch support. IIt fits close to the foot so I think I can wear it with without orthotic. I found it does run short even though I ordered a half size larger than usual. I am returning for exchange in a full size larger than I usually wear.

I love these sneakers. They have a look of a stylish flat sneaker with the support of an orthopedic shoe. I have a narrow foot and they fit my foot perfectly. Unlike other minimum looking sneakers they have a very thick footbed for all day comfort. This is my second pair and will most likely buy more.

This is a very cute shoe that says it comes in wide widths. However, I ordered this shoe in wide and the toe box isn't as wide as I had hoped. I have bunions, so while this shoe did accommodate in the width, with every step the crease of the shoe put pressure on the bunion and my heels slipped too much out of the back of the shoe. It made for an uncomfortable test. Having said that, I will note that the foot bed removeable insert has excellent arch support. But, the shoe itself under the insert is completely flat and a little two rigid. This is a well made shoe, it just won't work for me. I am returning it.

I bought the Plim Soul and the Moc Star at the same time. At first I couldn't figure out what was different about them until I tried them on and realized the Moc Star is lower around the ankle, which I liked. But the Plim Soul has a smooth toe, which I liked better than the Moc Star's extra toe stitching. I wear a 9 - 10 depending on brand (9 in Chaco's, 10 in Asics), so I read the reviews and got a 10 in both of these, which fit just fine. I also have a bunion so some shoes I need the larger size for comfort. I wore both pairs around the house a bit and decided that while they are super cute, they are too clunky for me and made my feet look huge. They are quite stiff (no-show socks made them feel a little better) and I don't think they will soften up over time. They are also not meant to be machine washable and I'm not confident in my ability to keep them clean! Both styles are attractive, but I'm returning both pairs and am trying out a white sneaker that is softer and machine washable from a brand not available on Zappos.

I have short feet, wide toes, high arch ...and Morton's Neuroma, which means anything pinching my toes will put me into agony. I typically wear a 6.5 - 7 W or WW; based on the recommended sizing, I ordered a 7.5 Wide. These are keepers. The arch is high enough that even my high arch feels the support, which is very unusual. The footbed is quite firm, so if you are looking for cushy softness this probably isn't your shoe, but I think it's going to hold up well. And they are cute to boot...not too trendy and not too orthopedic. I'm hoping the other colors come back in stock in my size; I like the gray, but I'd love some of the other, also.

These are cute shoes & I love Taos but unfortunately I have to return them. The left shoe makes a very obvious loud cracking sound when walking.

Arch support is good. There is no padding in the other parts of the sole. Just know if you are buying these for walking any distance think again.

I love, love these shoes for comfort. However after owning these for less than a year, both shoes have failed. As shown in the picture, the outsole has torn and the nearest seam has also given way. I have not worn these she shoes daily-mainly just for errands etc. I would definitely purchase these again for comfort if it wasn’t for the lack of durability for the price.

I am a true size 7, and went up 1/2 size , and they're snug. This company isn't following the standards as I need an 8 if I intend to wear them and be comfortable and i have never worn an 8 in 55 years. Very frustrating.

When I saw this new, cute style, I had to give Taos another try. Even though the red is lovely it was a hard no. The eyelets rubbed the top of my foot on one side. And though the insole is removable, it's where all the cushioning and support is. So if you remove it for a custom orthotic, it becomes too hard. For my feet at least. Lots of style but the comfort wasn't there for me.

I have these exact shoes in a 1/2 size smaller that I purchased several years ago. I was replacing them due to wear and decided to go up half a size since it's winter and I'll be wearing heavier socks - they do run a little small. These shoes were so uncomfortable - I wore them for a total of 4 hours and gave up. There was little to no arch support and I felt as if there was no cushioning in the insole. The same shoe several years ago was much more comfortable and my current $30 sneakers offer more cushioning. I really want to like them - they are cute sneakers and go with almost everything.

Fricken love these shoes! I lived in them all summer. Wides were perfect, arches were perfect. This was my first pair of Taos shoes and I'm sold.

True to size. Comfortable after brief breaking in period.

Was a bit disappointed they ran 1/2 size small. But returning or exchanging was a snap! They still are a little tighter than New Balance. But I love the style.

all quality attributes as expected.
