Love the look but no arch. It’s super flat. Their shoes are getting flatter than ever. They used to be more supportive with this type of last but not anymore.

Beautiful sandal. I love the style and the leather straps are butter soft. Sadly, there is a serious design flaw. If you have a high instep and/or larger ankle and must use less than the entire hook and loop closure, the strap on top of the foot buckles and refuses to lay flat no matter how many times you try. And I did try. I so wanted this to work out.

I bought a pair of Taos sandals last summer, and the support was great but the straps kept loosening, so my feet would slide around. I tried these hoping they would fasten more tightly, and they do. In addition, the way the straps are placed keeps pressure off the outside edge of my feet which is so sensitive it hurts in most closed shoes and many sandals. Also, though I usually prefer a raised wedge heel, these have such supportive arches my feet don't feel tired in them, and the insole is so well padded I don't hit the ground hard. Taos sometimes runs small. I took advice from other reviewers and sized up, going for 10 rather than my usual 9 1/2. They fit fine.

I ordered one pair of these sandals in 8 and one in 7. My true size is 7 1/2. The 8 was sloppy and the 7 was a little short but works for me, so I kept these and returned the 8. They are very comfortable and look nice on my feet. I am very pleased with them.

Fit was good however these seemed to have very little arch support compared to other Taos sandals, shoes and boots that I own. I also did not care for the brown sole with the steel gray upper - the brown sole did not look very stylish to me.

Absolutely perfect fitting. Comfortable arch support. Love the cushion strap at back of heel and the easy pull tabs for adjustability. Easy on and off. The color I chose is nice. I am extremely happy with these sandals! I usually wear size 7 1/2 to 8. These are size 8.

Easy to wear straight from the box. I wasn’t sure I would like the style, but I do. I plan to order another pair because they are comfortable, well made, quiet (perfectly silent!!) and different than anything else I own. I wear a 7 and my foot is narrow. These fit well in a 7. Plantar fasciitis and neuroma unbothered.

I love these sandals! It's challenging to find comfort and decent styling at a good price but "The Show" from Taos delivers on both counts. The yummy Bruschetta color is softly muted and blends with any number of outfits. The creamy lining and foot pad feel like doe skin. With quite narrow feet, I appreciate the velcro straps at front and back that hold my feet in place even on long walks. Other reviews mentioned that this shoe runs large so I ordered my standard size 10 and also a size 9. I returned the 10 and kept the size 9. I really wear a 9.5 but that size is difficult to find these days so I don't withhold a star on that account. Zappos makes returns (and refunds) easy peasy (they are part of Amazon so that makes sense), and with the selection online, I know I will be a repeat customer. This old Boomer finally took the advice of her GenX niece about Zappos and is very happy she did.

I can’t review this exact shoe because Zappos sent me the wrong shoe by mistake. But I did get them in a different color and LOVE them. They are comfortable enough to wear for a day out shopping or anywhere really. They look great as well and the fit true to size. They are worth every penny - one of the best shoes in my closet!

Love, love these sandals. Having velcro closure at top and bottom allows for a perfect custom fit. The leather is soft and high quality. Nice enough for business casual wear in the summer.

I bought these for a summer trip to France and have been wearing them at home the past few days. They were super comfy right out of the box! My feet are narrow with high arches and nearly 1/2 size different from one another. I usually wear 6.5 to 7 so, as recommended, I ordered down to 6 and they are just right. The velcro straps are understated and function well. I think they’ll be perfect walking sandals for warm weather and they are clearly made to last. I was a little wary about the price but I think my feet and the shoes are worth the investment.

I have a very narrow foot and these fit very well. I wear a size 11 in a sneaker, but usually wear a 10 in sandals. Size 10 fit me just right. It's nice not to have to wear an orthotic and a tie shoe all the time, especially in the warmer months, yet still have good support.

I have narrowish feet so chose these since I could make adjustments to customize the fit. I have another pair of Taos, so I knew they were comfortable, tho this new pair doesn't have quite as much arch support as the old pair. But they are cute and fit well, so I'm pleased w/ my purchase.

I ordered these in 6M caramel and when I first tried them on I just wasn’t sure about the fit. They are easily adjustable but I just couldn’t decide if they were going to be comfortable. My foot is sort of in between medium width and wide. I decided to give them a chance and I’m so glad I did. After about 3 wears they were broken in and get more comfortable each time I wear them. Just wore them to an overnight trip wear we did lots of walking and can’t say enough good things. Super comfortable, no rubbing and got compliments on how cute they were. Also, my feet are flat as pancakes and there is enough support for me. Came back to order another pair in a different color!

I love these sandals for the quality, comfort, and the style. I wear a 7.5, and the 8 fit perfectly. I got the steel gray, which is neutral and will go with many things. I wore them all day out of the box and hated to take them off.

Great fit right out of the box. Steel color is soft gray, with bluish tinge. Will blend nicely with jeans, black and grey.

I liked the shoe but I need good arch support, and this shoe has very little. The sole is nicely cushioned, but there's very little support in the arch.

Having a bunion on one foot has hampered my shoe shopping! These sandals do not bother my bunion at all, the top strap has Velcro so you can control the looseness of the strap. Kind of pricy, but comfortable.

These are comfortable sandals. T my only issue is that I ave a high arch so the strap doesn’t close without a little "buckle" over my instep. They’re fine however and I like the dark grey (steel) color. The top strap is fine and doesn’t cut into my bunion which is a nice surprise.

I was disappointed in the shoe. My first pair was bought 2 years ago. I loved the softness of the leather. Very comfortable. But the new ones I bought, seem to have a harder leather and rub against my ankle and toes where the straps are. I have worn only one pair. I will not return that one, but I wish to return the second pair that has not been worn.

Size was fine.. I wear an 8.5 and Zappos recommended a 9 and that was correct. These would be very comfortable to wear around to run to the store. But they are flat-no arch support at all. So if you are doing a lot of walking you may want more structured support. I need to return them for that reason.

I wear an 8.5 and ordered the size 9. They were huge. At least the return process is very easy.
