It's important to me to wear comfortable shoes but look good as well, these shoes do both!

Cute AND comfortable AND well made! It doesn't get much better!!

Reviewed in the United States on 19 June 2018

Size: 8.5 USColour: Grey Wash CanvasVerified Purchase

I am a scientist which means I spend a lot of time on my feet every day, and am required by safety regulations to wear closed toe shoes in the lab at all times. Since I just wear a lab coat every day I get to dress casually, but that doesn't mean I always want to wear my athletic sneakers every day. I'm always on the look out for comfortable, versatile closed toe shoes that are cuter and more fashionable than athletic shoes. I have worn Chuck Taylor slip ons in the past but truth be told they're too narrow for my feet and are uncomfortable for that reason. When I saw these I thought they'd be perfect! They're simple but cute and offer a great deal of support and comfort without being too big and chunky. I have very high arches and LOVE the arch support these offer!! That is so rare to find in a shoe like this! They are well made, high quality shoes. There was very little break in. I had a little rubbing on my heel the first day and it took the tongue a few wears to be really comfortable on the top of my foot (with a no show sock underneath) but otherwise felt great right out of the box! I always wear size 8.5 and these fit exactly as expected. I love that the laces aren't too long and I don't have big ugly bows or tails to flop around when I walk. Sometimes I tuck them in the shoe so they're not visible. Once you tighten them up they stay that way very well on their own without needing to be tied super tight. I couldn't be happier with this purchase and can definitely recommend these! I paid full price.

Stylish & supportive

Reviewed in the United States on 22 March 2016

Size: 8 USColour: Charcoal Wash CanvasVerified Purchase

Love these sneakers. They look like Converse but offer much more support. I bought these for an upcoming trip to Europe where much walking will be done. These sneakers are super comfortable and stylish. I have plantar fasciitis on my left foot and the arch support on these is fantastic. Plus they look so much better than walking around in running shoes. I swapped out the laces for elastic laces so that I can easily slip them on/off without retying. I'm normally a 7.5 M/B but I did listen to other reviews and ordered in a size 8 and they fit perfectly, so they do run a bit small. Width-wise, they were perfect for me. I got them in the charcoal gray color and they're a deeper gray than what's shown in the pictures above, which I prefer.

Lasted less than a month

Reviewed in the United States on 15 November 2018

Verified Purchase

At first I thought these shoes are great! I bought them for a 10 day european trip. I like that they have great arch support while looking cute, however, they lasted half a month. When I went to put them on post trip, I noticed they had already begun to tear. And not just separating the fabric from the rubber, but the fabric itself shredded, making it very difficult to repair. These shoes are far too expensive to last less than a month of regular wear and tear.

Must buy!

These are the best canvas shoes with arch support that I have bought and stylish, too. They fit a size smaller than marked. My size is a women's 9 and I bought the size 10 for a perfect fit. The 9 1/2 were still too small. Ditch the Converse and give your feet some love.

It's all about the foot-bed!

Reviewed in the United States on 18 April 2017

Verified Purchase

I was doubtful about ordering this sneaker... I am not a huge fan of atheltic shoes in general. Most are clunky and have way too many colors on them. I'm generally a sandal or barefoot girl. I have tried on a bunch of casual tennis shoes in stores and none of them have any sort of support! They're cute and fashionable, but flat inside.
But, oh, this foot-bed! (Taos even states on their website, It's all about the foot-bed.) The curves and pods thingy rocks this shoe to a new level. I have had it a couple of days and am wearing them to see if wearing them long-term is the same as wearing for an hour or so. We have an upcoming trip this summer where we will be walking for hours at a time. I'm hoping this fits the bill.
I usually wear an 8, but ordered an 8.5. I wouldn't have been able to get my foot in the 8, so I'm glad I did. I want to wear them without socks and they fit perfect that way. A few reviewers mentioned that the padded little tab at the top of the shoe rubbed their heel. I can feel it as well, but so far it hasn't made wearing the shoe uncomfortable or unbearable. I like these so much, I've ordered the Taos Dandy slip-on model as well in that cute, yellow floral print.

Great fit and great quality

Reviewed in the United States on 3 September 2017

Verified Purchase

These are my new favorite shoes. They have a roomy toe box, and the footbed feels like it's custom-made. The sides are low enough so they don't rub against my ankles. The throat is high, but doesn't cut off the circulation at the top of the foot. In regard to pronation, they seem neutral, but I haven't had them long enough to show any wear at the heel that would indicate under-or over-pronation. I knew they were going to "fit as expected," because I bought my first pair in person at a store, so I knew my size. They seem true to size, but they may be too roomy if you have very narrow feet.

Reviewed in the United States on 22 August 2018

Verified Purchase

These khaki sneakers go with everything and I am very pleased. I bought them mostly to wear while teaching because they go nicely with all of my chinos. I'm a MS/HS physics teacher, so I need to walk, run, squat, climb, crawl, etc in my lessons, but an athletic sneaker is too casual for dress code. These are a nice in-between shoe with the flexibility of a sneaker, but they look nicer. This is my first pair of TAOS, and I am excited that they come in so many colors! I will be ordering another pair sometime soon.

I typically wear an 8, but after reading the reviews, I ordered and 8.5 and they fit beautifully. The insole is so supportive of my foot! The arch section comes up to my foot rather than being flat inside the shoe. The heels took a few days to break in for me, but stopped rubbing after some walking in them and are quite soft now. Others have reported no rubbing, so perhaps I just have sensitive heels. If you feel some discomfort, just wear some thick socks with them for a few days and you'll be good to go later.

Beware of return policy

Reviewed in the United States on 21 November 2017

Verified Purchase

I normally wear a size 9.5M (US). Many reviews recommended ordering a larger size. Even going up to a 10.5 did not help.
The toe box of the shoe is terribly tight and very uncomfortable.

Cost me almost $20 to return, sooooo not worth it just to try them on!!

I should have paid attention to the fact that returns were not free, won't happen again.

Spendy but worth it

Reviewed in the United States on 31 May 2019

Size: 8 W USColour: Charcoal Wash CanvasVerified Purchase

I bought these because my converse were killing my feet, I got corns on both my baby toes wearing my converse, never had issues like that ever in my life, I had to find a casual sneaker stat as I was limping. I went up a half a size and wide width. They are pretty perfect. The seam on the right shoe was hitting my baby toe but I can't tell if it would bother me normally or just because it was so aggravated already and swollen and sore. SO I just put a little mole skin on the inside of the sneaker where the seam is and it's perfect, have had no issues. Typically if I am wearing flat type sneakers, my back kills, but the support in these are great. I am so glad I purchased them. THey are a little high on the pricing for the shoes, but I went with them because I really need the support. I will definitely buy again, just need to get more colors in the size I wear.

Chai Tea Latte

Insole has too much arch support.

Reviewed in the United States on 24 May 2018

Verified Purchase

I bought these for an upcoming trip to Europe where I anticipated walking around alot but didn't want to wear typical work-out-type sneakers. So it does LOOK cool. I love the look but the insole that came with it pushes up on my arches too much that at the end of the day my feet don't feel great. I'm in between a normal to flat foot. I tried to replace the insole with another one BUT since they were designed with their insole that has HIGHER heel padding, my personal insole suddenly had my heel too low and so the canvas heel part started rubbing weirdly on my heel in a painful way. So in short, i love the look, but for my type of feet, will have to play around and spend some more money to find correct insole replacement. I'll probaby NOT take it with me to europe.

Size up, but very comfortable and supportive

Reviewed in the United States on 23 January 2020

Verified Purchase

First, these definitely run small. But they are so worth it to find the right size. I usually wear an 8 in casual/dress shoes and size up to a 9 for running/hiking shoes for adequate space, but I need a 9.5 in this shoe.

I purchased these originally six years ago in black and white for a trip to Europe. I bought them right before departing and was very pleasantly surprised at not only how no break-in period was necessary but also at how incredibly comfortable they proved to be. I have worn them frequently over the last six years and though they are dirty, they are still structurally solid.

I am heading to Europe again soon, and I found a deal on a white pair in 9 and ordered them thinking I could get away with the smaller size if I stuck with thinner socks. No go. The 9.5 just feels like a safer bet, considering how feet swell. I will say the new pair felt much stiffer compared to my old pair, so they definitely do soften up with time. I'm probably going to stick with my old pair again for this trip since my feet have never once complained while wearing them. I am going to try another reviewer's suggestion of elastic laces as the provided laces definitely require tying and untying each time (something I never do with other shoes).

Long story short, size up and enjoy the support and durability.

WOW! What and absolutely awesome shoe!!

Reviewed in the United States on 7 March 2020

Verified Purchase

First of all, this shoe is worth every penny I paid!!! I love my Converse Chucks, Sperry's, and Tretorns, however my feet do not. They just don't have the arch support my feet need anymore. Right out of the box, this pair of Taos sneakers was comfortable, and fit as described by the vendor. I usually wear an 8.5 medium, and ordered a 9 medium. Fits perfect. I ordered the washed olive, and it's a great color.....almost neutral. I will definitely order additional styles/colors from Taos since getting this pair. If you're like me, and have issues with your feet, don't hesitate to get them. They are well worth the cost.

Amazing comfort!

Reviewed in the United States on 31 May 2019

Verified Purchase

I have bone spurs on my heals and that makes it very painful to wear little sneakers like these as a general rule. I have orthodics that really should be in every shoe I wear! I had read the reviews for the Taos sneaker but was very skeptical since the reviews seemed to be so mixed. I will say that beyond a doubt, these are the most comfortable sneakers like this that I have ever owned. Usually within the first hour or so my feet hurt like the dickens. These are surprisingly well made and the insert is amazing in that it hits my arch perfectly! I was not happy with the thought of spending that kind of money on a sneaker like this but I am sold on the Toas brand and I will be ordering another pair! Amazing shoe!!
