User Reviews
I've worn Eastland shoes for years, and I am loving this pair. Haven't worn them much yet, but hopefully they will last as long as other pairs have. They are super comfortable, have great arch support (I have high arches), and they are easy to slip on and off. Plus, they are lightweight, well madee, and look good too. I would recommend these to anyone who wants a comfortable, casual slip on shoe!
Nice comfy shoes for work
I had these a few years ago and wore them till the souls cracked apart. Loved them! This batch looks like the old shoe, however the fit is completely different. I have a narrow foot and had to order a wide because I couldn’t get my foot in the regular size that I wear. I had to upsize by a half size and order the wide width. They fit perfectly! I love them!! The cushion and construction of the shoe is unbeatable!!
I bought a brown pair and a black pair. They don't seem to fit the same. I like the brown ones, they're comfortable, and so I ordered a pair in black as well. The black pair are a bit smaller and due to my high arches it makes my feet ache. I would order brown again and hope for the best.
I am going to try to get used to this shoe walking around the house for an awhile to see if the loosen up a little bit. I have owned east land shoes all my life but these are the toughest I have ever owned. I really like them but I ordered a wide to be sure I can wear socks with them, but they are really narrow so the socks will have to be very thin or hose socks.Second review:Well I have tried to wear these shoes since I bought them. I cannot break them in. I have had them about three months now and I am not happy with the purchase. These are not wide shoes. It’s too late now to send them back.
I was looking for a comfortable brown shoe and I’m glad I bought these! The color was spot on, they comfort is great, so easy to put on and buckle. Very versatile. Can be worn casual or dressy. I love this shoe and highly recommend it
Great shoe, I was sad when after 10or better years the original pair finally failed. The soul left it's body. Lol.I was so happy finding these again.
I ordered a half size up and my toe area could use a bit more room but not another half size more. The shoes are very stiff so will take some breaking in time. Overall I like the shoes and I am sure will even more after they are broke in. They look very nice with jeans.
