Customer Reviews Taos Footwear One Vision

The Taos One Vision sneaker is *not* like the other Taos sneakers. I purchase Taos sneakers because it's the one brand I have found that keeps my feet pretty much pain-free, apparently due to their excellent arch support. The One Vision has "adequate" arch support, at best, not the "excellent" arch support of the other Taos sneakers such as the various Star models (Star, Moc Star, etc.) and Soul versions (Plim Soul, Z Soul). Despite its equal or higher cost, the One Vision seems to be more cheaply made, feels thinner overall, offers less robust arch support, and had some discomfort near the seams and eyes at the base of the big toes until I made them way looser. My feet feel relief when switching back to one of my other Taos sneaker models. I debated returning the One Vision pair, but I got them because of the rubber top at the toes. When going outside in 1 to 2" of snow, snow sits atop the toes on the other canvas Taos sneakers, where it melts. I decided to try the One Vision for wearing out in the snow, and they do keep the snow off the canvas, so they accomplish the goal of not allowing snow to melt into the sneakers from the tops of the toes. Normally I'd buy other brands of shoes in an 8.5, and Taos says to size up, so I usually buy either 9 Wide or 9.5 medium. This pair is a 9 in grey. Would I recommend the One Vision? It depends. If you want the rubber atop the toe for some reason, and you can accept less arch support, okay, maybe. If you're in love with the other Taos sneaker models (such as the -Star and -Soul models ) and you want the same degree of quality and comfort, then the One Vision may not be for you.

Very cute shoe but not comfortable, at least for my feet. Width and length were perfect, with ample space for my toes. But the sole was stiff, forefoot a little hard, and my narrow heel slipped. For the price I paid, I'd hoped for more comfort. Bought them to wear to work where I walk a lot, but unfortunately these aren't the right pair.

Ordered the Taos Moc Star in graphite gray and LOVED them. So comfortable with their molded ortho-friendly removable footbed. Made me a true Taos fan! So I ordered the One Vision in black—a very cute style—and was bummed to find out this model does NOT have the orthopedic innersole! They are completely flat and stiff, to boot. They were returned and I ordered the Plim Soul, which does have the "curves and pods" footbed Taos is famous for. Plim Souls are even more comfy than the Moc Star! Next time I won't assume all Taos footwear is equal.

This shoe is clunky, stiff and narrow. The shoe does not follow the natural shape of the foot.

I was surprised that my regular size in these was so tight, I’ve always worn an 8 in Taos shoes but these were so small! I even checked if they were the right size. They also didn’t have as much arch support as Taos usually has

A relatively comfortable shoe, although I wish it had more arch support.
