These little moccasin booties are absolutely perfect! They're cute and comfy. I have bony feet with lots of areas that tend to rub in a majority of shoes - but not these! They are soft and unstructured so they fit your foot exactly. Also, the size 11 for me was true to size and the width was a true medium. Highly reccomend!

This shoe was a perfect fit for me. I did not mind the soft heel, as some others did. But, and it's big but, i could not walk comfortably in this shoe. There is no effective padding on the innersole, and I felt every lump and bump of the heavily patterned outsole. Very comfortable shoe if you're sitting down or standing still!

I was really disappointed with this Born shoe. I liked the look and color of shoe when I ordered. But when trying on the shoes, there was no heel cup, just flimsy backing. Also there was very little cushion and arch support. Sending back

I love these shoes. They are my second pair. The first were mistaken for a chew toy by my puppy, he's OK. The shoes are so comfortable, light and soft that they need no braking in and can be worn all day on the day you get them. They are easy on, easy off and can be worn with different thickness socks and still tie just right. They are a beautiful suede and come in very pretty as well as practical colors. They are my every day shoes, the best ever!

I like these informal Oxford/booties a lot. They fit well and are very comfortable. I’m a 9.5 and Zappos suggested a 9, which was right. I do have to defend the structure/lack of structure on these shoes. The leather is soft and there is lots of padding on the bottom, but they aren’t constructed like walking shoes, more like relaxing or quick errand shoes, and for that, they’re perfect!

Very nice and soft leather. Good looking too. I wanted to keep this but I found the heel too wide. Also half a size too big. I wear 6.5 shoes so I ordered a 6.5 and it was just a bit too big.

I'm so happy with these shoes! I have wide feet and these cool "desert boots" fit perfectly, even though they aren't technically wide (probably a B width). Also, the leather is so soft that it gives a little as I wear them. I love the way they look and fit.

Love the comfort of these shoes, I was introduced to Zappos by my daughter in law who assured me they have the best quality for the price. I agree with her 100%

I like these shoes so much I bought a second pair in a different color. True to size and very comfortable. Leather is nice and soft and arch support is very good.

Should have taken Zappo's advice and ordered a size down, though these felt two sizes too big. These are soft like a desert boot, I needed more structure. BTW, these were pretty well worn right out of the box!

This moccasin-bootie fit in my normal size 7.5M. It is a bit wide, but that is good with a light sock for fall/winter. The suede is extremely soft and unstructured as others have noticed. This is a good thing for me because of bad arthritis and neuromas. There is no real arch support but that is okay, too, since I just want these for comfort, not for walking. The style is not my fave, but the comfort outweighs that! I like them and would buy others in this newer line.

There wasn't any lining to the shoe and my feet would need some warmth. I liked the style a lot. It was wider than I thought it would be.

Nice style that goes well with jeans, cords, and other casual styles. The rust color is a great neutral that will go with everything. Very comfortable!

The length and width are perfect for my size seven medium width feet. The nubuck leather is soft. The shoes look adorable with jeans.

I love these shoes. They are lightweight. I love the olive green color. The sole has lots of good traction for winter weather. Good support. I put them on and walked all day in them and they were great. Highly recommend for an overall comfortable casual shoes with pants/jeans.

Too unstructured for my needs. And I keep having to remind myself that suede is not my friend, I’m not delicate with my footwear.

These were a little big for me and were returned. But the style was not as I expected ..the tie closure had only 2 eyes & looked insubstantial. The online color looked more red than the actual color, which was orange -brown. I have bought Born shoes & boots for years & these were my first disappointment.

Definitely comfy/squishy. There is minimal arch support, these are not orthotics, don’t buy them for that. If you are between sizes and sometimes choose a wide shoe or wear a thick sock go up a half. I am a true 10.5 so went with the 10 because they don’t make 10.5. I would like a little more room, but I know an 11 will be too big. Going to suck it up and keep the 10, won’t wear thick socks. Suede upper and shoestrings are worth the price. I wouldn’t spend all day on vacation walking in these but good for the office, a few hours out with friends or walking the dog.

The fit is true to size. The leather is very soft. I love the green color. I like the support. The only thing is the shoe rubs the bone next to my little toe. It is where the seam is. I put a band-aid over it and it seems to work ok. Other than that I like the shoes. Reminds me of the Desert Boots in my younger days, only better.

I loved the shoe: color, style, comfort. Unfortunately when I walked in them it sounded like I was walking on bubble wrap. A crackling noise unrelated to the sole material. It was the same on carpet and hard surface. I ordered two sizes and both crackled. I was somewhat confused because I read all of the reviews, on this site and others, and not a mention of this issue. I was so disappointed, because when I opened the box I knew I had found a keeper. Sadly, I had to return them.

Nice looking but there is no 'structure' to the boot; the leather is extremely soft (like calf's leather but paper thin) and provides no support.

These are a 10 on the cuteness scale. I wanted to keep them but the laces would not stay tied and the shoes loosened with each step. They fit more like slippers than shoes. Very flimsy. Certainly not for cold weather although they look the part from the picture online. Thank you Zappos for your quick delivery and easy return.

I like minimal shoes and found these super comfortable if a little earthy-crunchy looking with the rawhide lace. I returned them because they squeak! Maybe it's just that one pair or if it's the material of the sole-? I gotta be able to sneak up on people in my elf shoes. HA!
