Customer Reviews TOMS Classic Alpargata - DELETED

No arch support! The navy blue Toms are versatile, they really look good with a wide range of outfits. I love the look of the inner fabric. The shoes have held up quite well over a few months of wear... however, there is no grip on the soles and the small amount there wears even flatter quickly. The worst is that there is very little cushioning on the sole and absolutely no arch support at all. I never wear these when I know I'll be doing a lot of walking, or even just a lot of standing around on pavement. These don't look very good with socks but I wear socks with them anyway because I hate the feeling on bare feet in shoes, always have. I love the semi-philanthropic idea of the company and chose to buy Toms over similarly styled shoes (I think some other companies have copied the Toms style) because of that. But I won't buy them again.

These were going to be my go-to shoes for the summer, but they are too wide for me. I wear an 11in most all brands of shoes, but these have to be returned.

I like the style, but it's not a very durable shoe for the price. For women sizes I would recommend checking the kids Tom's because they are cheaper.

The shoes were nice but a little too tight on the back. They felt stiff.

I loved the color but the shoes did not have enough support for my feet. I was sorry to send them back since the color was amazing.

These do not seem to fit like my other Toms. The sides are cut higher, which is problem for me because they rub against my ankle bones. The fabric is very stiff, which has been hard to break in to far. The left shoe is also made noticeably wider than the right so there is a lot flop on that one. Toms without the comfort are just not for me because let's be real, they are not cute.

I found the band on top too tight and my feet are skinny. The shoe feels narrow. They are cute but too tight. I kept them in hope they will stretch

The shoes come in a really light color-almost an off white color. I thought it would be a darker gray. I am disappointed and wish there was an option to exchange these instead.

I have had many toms over the years and it seems like their sizes are not unoversal in even the same type of shoe. I have had 4 pairs of classics in 4 different sizes ranging from 8-9.5 (usually wear a size 8.5) The most recent pair I ordered were so narrow that I could barely get my foot into it. Once I did, it seemed a half size too big in length. Luckily zappos is amazing with their exchange/return policy because it took a few tries to get it right.

I really wanted these to work to replace my Bare Traps which fit perfectly. However, the Toms were wide for my feet and even though I did order a half size smaller than I usually would, they were still too big. The color was more "yellow" than I wanted. However, they were very light weight and probably a great summer casual shoe. They just don't fit my foot.

I shouldn't have listened to the reviews that said go a half size down. I'm normally between a 6.5 and 7 and find that going with a 7 works most of the time. I ordered the 6.5 and right off the bat felt they were tight. They seem to be best for people that have narrow or average width feet. My feet are on the the ever so slightly wide side and these could use a little more room. HOWEVER, I'm hoping with a little breaking in that the width will have some give and that will help all the way around. As for the style, I'm not that impressed...yet. This is my first pair of Tom's. I think i'm going to try a better quality pair of Tom's in the absolute right size and then I'll have a better opinion.

Very tight around the instep area. I don't think I have wide feet and this shoe is extremely tight. I decided to keep them hoping I can eventually stretch them but it is taking a while.

These were so cute, and I was excited for them. I could not even get my foot in them and I ordered a half size up. These are so narrow :( .

Nice neutral color and they look cute but in reality they are basically glorified slippers. Except they are not as comfortable. No support and am not counting on them lasting very long. I had to return for a half size down. I have a narrow foot and there is some space between the edges of the shoes and my feet. They should cost less.

I like the simple look of these shoes and the philosophy of the company, but they are not made for people with wide feet or high arches. I unfortunately have both, so I could barely get them on. Sadly, they will be returned.

Before I tried them on, I always thought these were similar to canvas sneakers. They're really not - they aren't sneaker-like at all. They're more like flats with a heavy sole. Or like a canvas sock with a sole (they don't have a lot of shape and structure of their own). They look nice on, but when it comes to casual shoes I prefer something a little more substantial and more like a typical shoe. I'm far likelier to reach for sneakers than for these, and my pair isn't worn very often. I wanted to love them, but they're just not for me.

I bought these because a friend of mine swears that they are the most comfortable shoes ever. After wearing them to go shopping, I beg to differ. The seam at the back, at the heel rubbed against my skin and it grew painful after a while. These are actually narrower shoes than I was expecting - after all they do have an elastic in the upper, so I expected them to provide more relief than they actually did, but I even ended up with a mark where the upper fabric and elastic bit into my skin. Last but not least, these cannot be worn without socks or liners, my footbed got really chaffed after I removed my liner socks to see if it would relieve some of the discomfort due to how narrow these fit. They did feel alright when I first put them on and at least they are a bit cushioned, and I would try to wear them with sock liners to alleviate any friction issues, if they were not so narrow.

I wanted to love these shoes but they were so tight across the top of my foot that they didn't fit. I have never had this problem before in other shoes, so it's probably just due to how the style of the shoes cuts across the top of your foot. So if you have high arches, be warned this shoe might not work for you.

I thought I'd give these a try on my weird feet - some reviews said they ran large/wide, but no not so much. If you have wide feet, you'll want to skip these. They mean what they say when they say "M." I'm sure they'll be comfy for someone to run around in, though...sending them back.

I wear a 5-51/2 in shoes with a narrow heel. I cannot wear TOMS because of my narrow heel. I ordered this shoe in 2 sizes and both too loose in the heel. Even heel grips won't help. TOMS fit narrow in the footbed and wider in the heel.

very small

I’ve always loved the TOMS that I’ve worn in the past, but this pair was very uncomfortable. It’s very stiff and it irritated my foot around my ankle. Compared with my older TOMS, it’s made differently around the edge.

fit fine but not as comfortable as Toms Cloud shoe
