I have a pair of Oboz Bridger boots that I love. They are 8.5. The 8.5 Emmas were way too big, the 8's fit but just a bit longer than I'd like, and the 7.5 are good with thin wool socks. Great arch support, but note that it is only in the liner, not built into the shoe like in some brands. The style is cute; I was looking for shoes to travel with to go hiking in and still wear into town without looking too much like a tourist. I've only worn them one day on errands around town and they felt good.

Do you, like me, have a big foot (size 11) with a long middle toe? If so, this shoe is for you. The toe box is nice and wide AND my middle toe, which is as long as my first two toes, has PLENTY of room. I am ecstatic. This is a nice, sturdy sneaker with a rugged sole; it feels well made. Also, purple sneakers! Really cute. Anyway, I have hope that Oboz has other styles that will fit me & my long toes very well.

Roomy toe box, great arch support, excellent traction. An overall super comfy sneaker. The styling is so fun and fresh.
(If I had any minor complaint, it’s just that the laces come untied more easily than they should.)

I wanted a casual comfortable show to wear around town and these shoes are really cute and seem well made, however they are not comfortable! They are very stiff and the insole is very hard. After wearing them for one day, my feet hurt! I had to put in a different insole with more cushioning, which has helped. I also had to size down a bit. I usually wear a 6. 5 but actually had to order a 6 instead because the other was too large. Hoping they break in more to be more comfortable, otherwise a good shoe.

The Emma's are super cute and very comfortable. I work in the outdoor industry and these have been very appropriate to the lifestyle. I have already worn them for hours at a time standing on a concrete floor and they have cushioned my feet nicely. Also great for walking around town...easy break in with no sign of blisters. I would feel very comfortable doing short hikes in these in a pinch. Fits true to size. I am generally a size 8 with normal width feet. Size 8's are perfect.

Cute shoes. Bought an 8.5 for our teen daughter, who normally wears 8.5 & they were too big. Her heel was sliding around as she walked & she felt they were just too roomy. We've ordered an 8 hoping that they will fit better.

I wear custom orthotics so the first thing I had to do was substirute a set of flat, flexible insoles for the ones provided. I find the 'orthotic' insoles provided by Oboz to be too hard ! What sold these shoes for me were the eyelets/laces which are easy to adjust, and the leather piece that pulls tight when laced through the instep. They felt a little snug in the toebox at first, but being leather they are quckly loosening up. I was looking for, and found, a pair of more weather resistant shoes for winter dog walking. Not for really wet/cold times, but lots more comfortable than the nylon trail runners I wear most of the time.

Fit was perfect, my usual 7.5. I have worn Bozos before and have been happy with them. These feel nicely padded and supportive. Very pleased.

I have the Jeannette Low. It fits me perfectly (other brands are a bit wide). Do not mind the loose shoe laces. Use it everyday, perfect for rainy walks in the PNW or for going to work. Bought one first and then wanted to get another extra pair. Ordered two to decide which color to keep. I couldnt decide. I have 3 pairs now.
Thank you for the great shoes!

These are still new, only worn a few times. The arch support is amazing, hits in all the right places. Firm sole and nice stiff upper. Cant wait to try on the trail and mountain biking.

The grey Chelseas are my everyday shoes and dress up boots. It took 2 tries to get the right size but its been worth it. The thicker insert made my right instep sore with size 8. 5 so I upped to 9. And all is good. I usually wear 8. 5. I wear these boots for long walks in all kinds of weather. I travel with them - a recent trip to Washington DC. There wasnt a break-in period. So be sure to get a size and shoe that fits from the beginning.

I wanted to like this shoe. I have 3 pairs of the Obox Low-leather walking shoes, and hoped this one would work as well. But the biggest problem was that it fit in the toe-box but the heel was too wide and it kept slipping out. I love the Low-Leather shoes because they have a wider toe-box but the heel is narrow, which works very well for me.
The other thing I did not like was that it looked really humongous on my feet. I wear a size 9 1/2 so my feet aren't small but this made them look like I was wearing a size 12. So sadly I had to return them. This won't keep me from buying Oboz, but I'm still hoping to find something that is closer to my beloved Low-leather shoes.

I bought these because I love my Oboz hiking shoes. I have worn the new pair several times and have found them extremely comfortable from day one, another Oboz winner!! The roomy toe box is exactly what I need for my foot issues

This is my first pair of Oboz shoes. I tried them on in a shoe store in our city and loved the arch support and sturdiness of them. I was replacing a pair of old Keen shoes, but unfortunately, Keen has changed their styles and materials and their shoes just dont work for me anymore. Ive been wearing my Oboz for 4-5 weeks now and have found that my toes feel slightly squished together by midday and I have to change shoes. A larger size would be too large and cause heel slip. I just wish the toe box was a little roomier. I definitely will consider another pair in the future, but I will pay more attention to the fit of the toe box. Unfortunately, for shoes, I think you have to wear them for quite a while to really figure out if they are a good fit and a comfortable shoe.

Really glad I got these shoes! Super comfortable, and also cute. Mostly using them as an around town shoe and office day shoe. However I did use them mountain biking the other day and they were great for that too.

Had my eye on the black Emma lows for months now. Just got them. I love Oboz. Have several pairs of hiking shoes and boots. These seem great on first try but Im disappointed theyre gray, not black like in the photo. Scanning reviews after the fact, I see that others noted this too. I wish Oboz could update the photo to match the actual shoe color so other customers arent misled. Four stars given it seems like a quality shoe. But would be five if the color were actually black as advertised. Debating if I will keep given black is preferable.
