I returned these because I like more structure in a walking shoe.

Many parts I like but this type of shoes with my feet hurt at times. I dont feel as secure in my ankle and by the time I finish my workout my feet and ankles hurt.

I was quite disappointed with these shoes. I bought them because so many people raved about the comfort. Yes, they are comfortable - BUT - despite looking like lace up shoes, they are not actually lace up. They have thick inner rubber bands (which aren't apparent in the photo) and are really slip on shoes. I have very high insteps and it is difficult for me to easily get my feet into slip-ons, so it took me a while to get them on and I did get a half size larger as suggested by reviewers. They were comfortable shoes, but lacked arch support, so back to Zappo's they will go.

It's very comfortable but doesn't have enough support for my workouts.

* Very attractive
* true to size
* On my first long walk I got the beginning on a blister (Hour long 2.0 walk)
* Inside base is thin. It has cushion but very little.
I would recommend these for casual wear with sitting. Casual meal out, movies, bowling ( 'cause you'll be given bowling shoes)

Not much support, but comfortable. Ordering 1/2 size larger was a mistake. True to size.

The tongue of this shoe was so long that it rubbed the top of my ankle, The rest of the shoe was a good fit. I had to return.

The shoe comfort, width, and style are great, however, the shoe is not true to size. My toe was busting out of the front and i couldnt keep them on. I will have to return and order a size 12.

I ordered a half size larger which was suggested by several reviewers and they fit perfectly through the toe box and length. very comfortable material, breathable. BUT my issue was the lack of arch support. I have medium arches, but I found that as soon as I put them on my feet and ankles would cave-in in a pronate. This doesn't normally happen to me in other shoes- in fact, I usually go the other way and have more wear on the outsides of shoes not the inside. Perhaps the downfall of such lovely comfortable material is that it allows for this type of movement and shifting of weight inwards. I can see this causing knee/calf pain trouble down the road. I'd suggest this shoe if you know you have sturdy ankles/knees and are mostly flat footed. I love the style, its too bad I will have to return them.

This is a nice shoe but I have plantar fasciitis and does not enough support; I had to put in a different onsert. Should have done more research

This is truely as advertised a slipper type shoe. There is no standard tongue like other athletic shoe. The shoe strings with four holes on top are more ornate than functional. Not at all what I wanted. I'm returning for a refund.

These were SOOO comfortable right out of the box. Felt like a hug for my feet. (I did order a half-size up based on previous reviews and got them in wide.)
However, after wearing them only a few days, the sole already seems like it's breaking down. The 'foam' looks compressed like some of my running shoes after several months of hard running, and I have only worn these walking around the house. Was planning to get a second pair in another color, but now I'm not so sure.

I LOVED the stylish look and feel of the shoe; however, it was absolutely not conducive for long walking, which is what I was looking. For me, this shoe didn't give enough support and my ankle kept rolling over, which made for an incredibly uneven and painful 9 mile walk. Because of the foam, which is comfortable and great, the unevenness of the walk created an indent in the foam, which changed the posture of the shoe, which inevitably affected my walking posture. Unfortunately, as much as I wanted to love the shoe and keep it, I had to return it for something else.

These shoes look great, but they run 1/2 size to a full size small.

Super cute and easy on/off for lifting/training days. Not great for cardio or plyo.

I love the shoe quite a lot, the look, the feel, everything BUT I had to reorder them multiple times. I am always a size 8 in NB shoes, however, when I received these they looked WAY to small the second I took them out of the box. Thankfully there is a NB store here in town so they let me order a different size. Of course with my luck I didn't try them on before, got home and they were still the wrong size. So I had to order a complete size up from my usual size just so they would fit! So just beware that if you do order they run extremely small!

I wish they would call the colors recognizable names. This looked tan on the website but in person has a lavender tint. Not a lot of support either but I would have kept it if the color hadn't been so weird.

I stand at work all day and the shoes are comfortable but the insides are already coming apart and it hasn't been that long. Not very durable.

I really like the sneakers but they buckle a little when I walk, I have to ear thicker short socks with them. If I wear without or with thin short socks they tend to buckle at the sides, which I am not happy with but going to keep them because I am traveling and hate returning things. I also need them right now. If not I would have returned them for maybe a size smaller.

I'm usually an 8/8.5, and I ordered an 8.5 in these since I usually like a little more room in an athletic shoe. When I tried them on they were VERY snug for an 8.5. I would go at least a half size up in these.

I used this shoe for visiting 2 museums and the balls of my feet hurt midway thru the 2nd museum. From now on this is a house shoe only.

The shoes are super cute and lightweight. But I'm having to return them in exchange for a bigger size. I had even measured my foot and ordered a half size bigger. Real small.

I bought this shoe because the image looked good and they were black. It is flat and I was looking for a shoe with more cushion. I will buy New Balance again just not this shoe.
