Customer Reviews Minnetonka Thunderbird II

These are my umpteenth pair of Minnetonka moccasins. I wanted a new pair of Thunderbirds. The color is great for the summer. Now about the fit: Minnetonka need to be adjusted. I think they are all the same width. You need to use the laces to adjust the shoes to your feet. Also, I am more comfortable with some foam inserts. These Minnetonka Thunderbirds are great! Thanks to all. LLAP

The fit and size ran very large. I wear size 8 and ordered 7 1/2 which was still too big. Highly suggest ordering 1 full size down.

Love these Mocs. Already owned a brown pair. Bought a black pair. Usually wear a 9, but ordered these in 8 1/2 based on reviews, & they fit perfectly. Have already gotten complements on this shoe.

I have purchased many pairs of Minnetonka, since my first pair in the 1990's and LOVED every pair. The shoes look smart. They fit snuggly, yet comfortable. The soles are not slippery on smooth or wet surfaces allowing safer walking than normal smooth-flat soles.

They're new, and I hear they'll stretch, but as of today I have no desire to take these off, they're super cute and comfy. I love them.

Minnetonka’s are always one of my go to brands for shoes and boots. They never disappoint. These are no different! However I had a hard time finding my size in these for some reason, they seemed to run very large compared to my other shoes.

It depends on what you want these for. I don’t wear them to go walking or anything like that, but they are perfect to wear around the house and they are comfy and cute. They seemed a bit tight when I got them, but they quickly stretch out and conform to your feet. I will probably get other colors.

I usually wear either a 7.5 or 8 regular. These shoes are really pretty (I ordered them in black) but I couldn't even begin to get my foot in. I double checked the shoes to make sure I was sent the correct size, so all I can say is that these run very small. It's a pity because I really liked them and now the larger sizes are no longer in stock. Oh well, my search continues!

I got these in grey, and they're pretty and understated. The sole is thin, so it's mostly an at-home or at-office shoe or maybe running errands in your car (they're not for long walks). They felt super loose out of the box, but all you have to do is unknot the leather cord and slowly tug it on both sides to tighten the top of the moc. Then just re-tie the bow and you're good.

I wear a 7 1/2 and ordered a 7. I don't think I could have ordered a smaller size, without it being too tight. It's a little wide but is very comfortable and is perfect for my intention to wear them around the house and for running errands. This is my first pair, but won't be my last.

I like my black suede Minnetonkas, a style that I have been wearing for 65 years! The size 10 is long enough for my actual shoe size of 10 1/2. It is wide, but I have very narrow foot. Drawing up the shoe lace helps a bit. My other MInnetonkas are white leather without a sole that I will trade off wearing with the black suede.

I purchased a pair eight years ago and love them. I can wear a size 7.5 or 8 and purchased these in a 7 when trying them on in person. I should have listened to my inner voice and ordered a different color from Zappos in a 7 but used their suggested guidance and bought an 8. They are too big and 7 and 7.5 are not available in the color I would like so I will either have to wait or find a good deal elsewhere. But these are great, comfortable shoes!

When I tried them on, I could tell how nice they felt , fit very nicely.

I’ve been wearing thunderbirds since I was 5. Loved them then, love them now.

I am in complete love with these moccasins. I normally wear a size 8.5 (or really in between an 8.5 and 8), but with these, I ordered a size 7. They fit like a glove, as moccasins should. I will be ordering more of these in the future. Minnetonka is a great brand!

Received my eagerly awaited shoe - unfortunately it was much too large. Beautiful shoe but have to return.

These are my new favorite shoes. Super comfortable and go with everything

I love Minnetonka mocassins! They style timeless. I wear a 9 but always order 1/2 size smaller and they fit perfect! Love my new shoes!!

I like the new bottoms, they'll be more sturdy. I've been wearing this type of moccasin sin the 70's. ha They have Never run true to size. I'm a solid 6 1/2 or 7 ALL the time. I ordered the 6 1/2 but am returning them, and reordering them in a smaller size. I sure do appreciate the fast delivery!

Many reviews say that this style runs large, but I ordered my normal size (7m) and they fit just fine. I bought these for inside wear only, and they are comfortable and perfect for that purpose.

Adorable shoe. The beading is a nice touch and the style is classic- While the width seems comparable to other brands, these were 1/2 size too large for me. I wear a 6 1/2 and fit easily into a size 6 in these mocs.

I normally wear a 7.5, so I ordered a 7 because of reviews. Had to send the 7 back, and ordered 6.5, which fit perfectly.

These are so cute! But, alas, they will not fit my wide feet. I do have a grateful niece that has saved me the trouble of returning them...

I love these moccasins! I bought them to use indoors as slippers (with the occasional trip outside to the mailbox or to take in the trash). After reading previous reviews, I decided to size down. I'm usually a 6 but I bought a 5.5 and they fit well. I have a narrow foot and they fit well. As some other reviewers have noted, the ties sometimes come untied, but that's not a big deal. If I double knot them they usually stay put pretty well. I am writing this review just over a year after the purchase, and they are still in good shape and still look good. A great value for the money. And I love how classic these are - I had Minnetonka moccasins as a kid and the beading still looks the same and really takes me back. Great craftsmanship!

I absolutely love these shoes, especially in the Fall. They go with everything, especially while transitioning clothes seasonally. They do not offer any arch support to speak of, so if that is a must for you these are not a good option. That said, they truly are super comfortable. I get tons of compliments on them and they have held up very well (I have worn them for a year now religiously!) Just ordered a 2nd pair, slightly different style tonight--plus a pair for my daughter!
