Customer Reviews Taos Footwear Star

These are super comfortable! They were just slightly tight in the toe box and hit my ankle bone when I first tried them on, but after an hour around the house, they felt great! I wore them all the next day and very comfortable. Really great arch support! Super cute shoes too. Love these!

Ordered these for my bff for Christmas and she loves them. She said they were the most comfortable sneakers she has ever owned.

I wanted to love these. The arch support is amazing; however, they ran too wide for my narrow feet and sadly I will have to return them.

Well-made witchy great style just as you would expect from Taos. The arches are so contoured that it didn’t quite fit my foot shape. I switched them out the insert of my Vionics loafer insert and voilà.. a perfect fit. My hint is: if the insert is not quite right for you, just switch it out for one that is and you’ll be good to go. Great shoes!

These were comfortable right out of the box but I had to return as they hit in a very sore place on the side of my toe. I have difficulty with any shoe that rubs this spot. The fit, however, was just as expected.

I love these shoes so much this was my second pair. Fantastic arch support and great for walking long distances. I normally wear a size 9 but got these is a 10. Almost as comfy as running shoes but easier to dress up a bit.

These shoes are great! I love them. Please listen to others and order them a size or half size larger. It's a must!!! They absolutely run small, no doubt. If you know that ahead of time, you'll end up with shoes that fit perfectly. I wear a women's 8 sometimes, usually an 8.5. I bought these in a 9 and they're very slightly snug. I got a wide width--if you sometimes wear a wide, definitely get these in wide! Otherwise the medium will be too narrow. They are comfy and cute!

I love this shoe. The arch support is superior and yet it doesn't look orthopedic. They pay particular attention to color and the contrasting stitching is nice. The sizing is smaller than usual. I wear a 10 normally but the Taos shoes don't fit unless I dial it up to 11. One thing I appreciate is that the Taos arch is in a good spot. I'm finding that some styles I used to wear comfortably now have the arch too close to the heel. A shoe saleswoman told me that this is a cost cutting measure having to do with adjusting the footprint when upsizing to the larger sizes.

I am a size 9 and needed a 10 in these. I found the width to be good (I'm medium). Really nice construction and materials. There is break-in time but it's minimal imo. I have 58 year old feet without serious issues and these are quite comfortable. Love the styling and the color (blue washed canvas) is just as pictured. Looks just like denim to me. They seem durable but I haven't had them long. Overall I'm happy with them.

My favorite shoe ever! (And I’m 59!) They are very supportive and stable even though they are fabric. They also have rubber on the bottom for excellent grip and more stability. I am getting very frustrated with OTHER shoe companies using only extremely lightweight soles that make me slip as soon as I step off the carpet! At my age I especially need to stay on my feet!

I have 7 pairs of these shoes. They have great arch support. They have so many cool colors to choose from.

I liked the look and fit of this shoe but unfortunately I ended up sending it back. It squeaked!

After reading others reviews on sizing up I took that advice and went with a 9 instead of usual 8.5. Good thing as the 9 fit perfectly. These shoes are amazing. I'm a massage therapist and yoga teacher and have yet to find a great shoe that does not crunch the foot bones and has good arch support. But these are it! And very cute, replacing my converse with these. Took a few 1-2 mile walks in these and they were great from the start, no pain, blisters or issues to report. Will be sticking with the Taos brand for sure.

As a woman with a size 12 foot (yes, TWELVE) it is difficult to find shoes that are comfortable AND cute. But these fit the bill! I was squeezing my foot into a size 11 just so I could have cute sneakers, and paid the price with sore feet. Not anymore, friends! When I put these sneakers on, it felt like my feet were getting a HUG! I am a new Taos fan!!

Super cute and comfy too. I have a narrow foot and these fit great.

Love these shoes. I now own 3 pairs of Taos. Would love to own every color. Very comfortable for this 3rd grade teacher.

I like the looks and the comfort, normally I wear 37 in Ecco brand , the rest of my shoes are 6.5 or 7 ( about half and half), I got this in a 7 regular and fit great

Zappos suggested that I buy a half size bigger (I'm typically a 9.5 and I bought a 10) and they were correct. I have VERY flat feet (I only have arches if I'm not touching the ground, otherwise it's all the way fallen) so usually with athleisure/casual shoes, I just take the bottoms out immediately after buying and put in an (expensive) insert and they live in the shoe. I don't think I'm going to even need to do that because the arch support is ah-MAH-zing. I'm used to inserts with no give whatsoever, so these are firm but a little bit cushy, so I'm very much feeling the cushy right now. That being said...socks are definitely necessary because I could see how the heels could rub. I'm writing this review after only one day of wearing them. I was a little hesitant about the $80 price, and I'm glad I went for them, but I think these are $60 shoes. Or maybe I have not kept up with inflation...

Ordered my usual athletic shoe size of 11 and they fit just fine...that's 1/2 size larger than my regular shoe size. I could use more supportive arch. Added a Dr School arch support they are fine. The removeable insole thickens at the heel elevating the heel 1/2", so adding arch support takes some trial & error to find the right combination. I like the styling for summer casuals without the heavy sole of athletic shoes. Wore comfortably all day on hardwood floors. No break-in required.

The shoe is comfortable, but on one of the shoes the fabric has a whole in it. I returned them and the second pair, you can see through the fabric. I am disappointed because I like the shoe.

I really wanted Converse, but can't wear them due to no arch support. I was super happy to find these shoes. They are cute and have great arch support. I wish there was more padding under the ball of the foot, but it doesn't bother me much. I can wear them all day without my feet hurting. I did order a half size up as recommended and they fit perfectly! Thanks Taos!

LOVE THESE SHOES! They're very cute and comfortable. I agree with other reviews to order 1/2 size bigger than your normal size. The toe box narrows a bit. I love the charcoal color and style. I chose to remove the inserts and use my own for proper arch support. I generally wear very soft shoes, and found the canvas material to be a little stiff at first, but after a couple of weeks they softened up nicely. Just wanted to mention that the shoelaces will pick up some of the shoe dye, but this doesn't concern me in the least. I'm considering purchasing another pair soon!

Super cute and very comfy. I have narrow/medium width feet and these are not too wide.

I love Converse shoes, however since I have plantar fasciitis, I have to wear shoes with good arch support. I'm on my feet in hospitals and LTC facilities all day long which means walking on cement floors. I have spent a lot of money on different brands of shoes claiming to have arch support. They either did and were too old fashioned for my taste, or did not have enough arch support which made my heel hurt half way through the day. I can wear these all day without heel pain at the end of the day. I like the way they look too! I only wish they had more of the 8.5 available in the colors. I had to order the charcoal, which is more black, and I really wanted the khaki! Like all other reviews have stated, order a size up. I normally wear an 8 and I ordered an 8.5 and they fit fine. You have to order larger because of the removable insole.

Lovely material, but too tight on my big toe. Wish the toe box was boxier!
