My second pair. The arch fits perfect. I’m a size 38 (Womens 7.5). You can’t walk in them all day, but they’re fine for 4-6 hours. They aren’t soft soled, so this the reason they’re not an all day shoe. But they’re cute and go with anything and everything. Have a great toe and top of foot support.
Very Comfortable and great looking !
Foot bed is very stiff but well supportive (kinda clunky when walking). I can wear all day and my arches feel great. I have wide feet and found that my toes exceed the foot bed and slightly fall over. Another quarter inch of material and they would have been perfect. Oh well, life as a wide footed girl.
These shoes are the most comfortable shoes I think I’ve ever worn. It feels like I’m walking on air. The leather is really good quality. It has an adjustable strap with velcro to fit your foot. Really well-made. I’m a size 8 and they fit perfect. This is the third pair of Taos shoes that I’ve purchased. All three of the pairs of shoes I have purchased have the Velcro strap. It’s really good Velcro and it doesn’t wear out like other shoes. They are consistently top quality and truly match their ads.
Hi love, these I bought one pair last year and wore them out. I have since purchased one more pair of black and one pair of brown because I have found that if you find something that’s really comfortable you better buy it while you can before it’s not available in your size. The only thing I don’t like is the price, but I am willing to pay it because they fit my foot at very comfortable.
I bought these for a trip to Italy and was well pleased. The style and color make them very versatile. I have high arches and these shoes provide good support. I was worried about the loop being tight on my big toes, but I had no problems with that. These shoes are easy to walk in and good for long walks. The fit is true to size. I wear a 9 and that's what I ordered and they fit perfectly.
I was truly excited about getting these sandals, so much so, that I ordered one in black and the other in white at the same time. As you know, with the price tag, that's just over $350 with tax!I was excited for these for a few reasons - the adjusted velcro on the top of your foot, the arch support, rubber bottoms for better grip and last but certainly, not least, that it hides my bunions!I was excited to receive these that I was checking the shipping status DAILY. They finally came in and I was disappointed!! Like another review mentioned, although the velcro allows for more of a customized fit, the footbed is borderline narrow. I don't have narrow or wide feet but my pinky is just a little, tad bit on the edge of the footbed. Not a big deal, I was okay with that. What made me return these (which I hemmed and hawed over), is the arch support.I ordered my regular size and it does indeed fit true to size (I'm a 7), but the placement of the arch support on this sandal, is placed more towards the back! If I pushed my foot back more, while having these sandals on, I could see (and feel) where the arch support would feel sooooo good and comfortable on my foot BUT then your little piggies would be too far back from the sandal and your big toe would just be peeking through the loop to even attempt to make that look work.If you have long toes, this may very well not be an issue for you. I don't have long toes - they're average length. Truly bummed to have to return these but back they go.To make matters worse, when returning these, the only option you get for credit is to refund your original form of payment. Wouldn't have been an issue if I didn't pay my credit card in full so quickly; now, I have a credit of $350 on my credit card! Wish I would've been given the option to apply it as an Amazon credit since I'm always on here, ordering stuff but I guess I can charge my card until the credit is used up.
These are a great well made brand and sandals leather is butter soft. I liked these because they look a bit dressier. Beautiful, comfy, just too pricey. Had to return
