Customer Reviews TOMS Classic Alpargata - Wide

I liked most everything about it but the bottom has no traction. As soon as I tried it on and took a couple steps, I almost fell on hardwood floors. Then I tried them on vinyl and tile floors and each time almost fell again. Too slippery to wear at home - which was going to be my main use.

I order a pair of navy Toms every spring and love them. However, the ones i received are not like the usual ones. These did not fit properly and and just looked off at the top of the shoe. I’m returning

Ordered light grey canvas. They are definitely not light grey, they are more like a nude/skin color... kind of disappointed.

Odd fit, and they made my feet look too big. Also, they were not comfortable like the old Toms were. I guess they changed the way they make them. Felt cheap, and most definitely not worth the money. Sorry.

So disappointing! I was expecting these to fit like a cushy glove but instead, they were so stiff that they tore up the back of my heels. I thought maybe I just hadn't broken them in sufficiently but after wearing for a few days, they hadn't molded to my feet and my heels remained raw. I wonder if I got a bad pair or something, since this doesn't seem to be a typical experience. At any rate, I won't be ordering these again,

I can't believe how tight these shoes are. I could barely get the shoe on, the top is so tight. The elastic panel does nothing. Returned immediately. My feet are slowly getting circulation back. I would not categorize myself as having a large or wide foot.

They look cute on other people, but they looked ugly on my feet.

I am very disappointed with Tom's shoes. I bought them because they donate money (or shoes) to charity. I like the look of the shoes and this blue is nice and goes well with jeans or shorts. Unfortunately they are not comfortable at all. There is absolutely no arch support, the soles are thin, there is not much grip on the soles and what 'grip' they have wears off after one walk. They are also a strange shape, it's as if the soles are a straight line but my foot has a small curve to it so my foot is never on the sole properly, my heel is on the fabric just a little bit. I've had that happen with 2 super cheap shoes in my 35yrs of wearing shoes. I wanted a slip on shoe and because Toms advertises that they donate to their charity I assumed the shoes they make would be good quality. I hope the shoes they send overseas to the charity are better quality and fitting than the ones they sell here.

Cute shoe, but runs small.

Extremely comfortable, as other reviewers have said. However after just a week, there is almost no grip any more on the soles. I'm in constant danger of wiping out on my hardwood floors, even on my sloped grass yard. Very comfy and cute but will not be purchasing another pair.

I simply loved the idea of them but in practice, they are not the right shoes for people with wider feet or those who need any arch support at all. Nor would they be "walkable" for any reaal distance -- I stood in them inside my house, on a hardwood floor, for mere minutes and they began to feel quite uncomfortable. I can easily imagine they'd be delightful if you have narrow feet with low arches. I'm so sorry these didn't work out! But back to Zappos they will have to go.

I ordered a wide width since the regular width TOMS are too tight in the toe box. I was hoping for more room in the toe box, but the toe box was still tight and the heel was so loose that they slipped off my heels with each step. Unfortunately, I had to return them.

I wore them on an errand and I was walking out of them. I would never order a D width !!

The wrong size was sent (12 instead of 5.5)

The last time I bought a pair of Toms that worked for me was in 2017. I tried a new pair in 2019, but the shoes I gave a try was much wider than the previous versions. I thought that perhaps it was a glitch. Now, in May 2021, I decided to buy another pair. It turns out the problem continues and they have permanently changed the design. The Toms I got 4 years ago still fit so much better than the current versions. I wear 7.5 in Toms and length wise they are -almost- the same, perhaps a bit larger, but the real problem is the width: the shoes are so wide now they slip off my feet. And I know that they will only get looser. The stitching is much more coarse too. Unfortunately, unless they goes back to the old measurements and quality, I will not be buying Toms.

I've had TOMs shoes in the past and they lasted a long time. This pair lasted only a few months of very normal wear, developing tear holes on the outside edges, even though the size was fine. Very cheap materials and construction for both uppers and soles. Will not every buy again...

This is my 3rd (or 4th? who can keep track?) pair of Toms and I was so disappointed. For some reason, the fabric on this shoe was so scratchy it actually gave me blisters, which has never, ever happened in the history of Toms. I assume this is a defective pair, and hope it doesn't mean they've changed the kind of fabric they use, because otherwise I'd have to stop buying Toms. Sadly, they must go back.

Terrible shoe. Too loose and doesn’t fit my narrow feet.

I love Tom's shoes. However, these are advertised as WOMEN'S sized Toms, the box said WMN size 5 and 22 cm, but they were gigantic! And when I looked inside the shoes, the tag said Y 5 (youth), which equivalent to a Women's size 6 1/2 or 7 and about 26 cm. So the wrong shoes were packaged in the box.This was a TOM's mistake I believe, not Zappos! Having to send back.

I was very much looking forward to my first pair of TOMS, only to be disappointed with how small they are. I don't consider myself to have the widest feet, but they are slightly wide. I could barely get these shoes on my feet and when I did, after having them on for only a few minutes, I started to lose feeling in my toes. I took them on and off again a few times, because I've been told they stretch, but these just were not comfortable at all. So tight, I felt that they would eventually rip, and it ruined the purpose of me wanting shoes I could just slide on. I even tried on a pair of my sister's half size larger and extremely stretched out and could just barely get my foot in. Disappointed because I really wanted a pair.

Runs terribly narrow. Not exaggerating. Quality was ok, but I could tell these would not last long even if they would fit. Unfortunately I cannot recommend these to anyone. Same with the Toms Alpargata.

These shoes are honestly so small. I have bought two pairs now and they're way too small. I went a half air down after reading reviews and I could not get my foot into the shoe. So I got my regular size (7.5), which I almost never veer from, and I can't even tell a difference between these and the size 7. I'm gonna have to go to a store and try some on because I don't think going even another half size up will be enough.
