"I have worn TAOS sandals for years but never purchased any of the closed in shoes. Very happy with these and they should be perfect for an European trip, with cobblestones and slippery surfaces. Good length, width and arch support. Appear very well made as other TAOS products."
"I bought this pair specifically for my travels to Portugal 🇵🇹. Easily packed and fashion forward sneaker. I am able to work out and walk about in them. I also like that is a slide, lite and not bulky. The arch support is good."
"Loved these as my main daily sneakers on my recent trip to Africa. Rubber over the toe and dense nylon material was relatively water and dust-proof. These got very dusty but my feet stayed clean inside. Easy to scrub off later. The fold-in heel was ideal for the plane trip, and walking around our lodges and camp sites. The ground was too dirty and uneven for sandals or flip flops but it is often necessary to quickly slide into shoes. The colors were great to go with my safari clothes as well. I also brought proper hiking shoes for jungle hikes, but these sneakers were perfect for general walking and a bike ride. I love the supportive sole of Taos sneakers which is firm and not too squishy or flexible, preventing pain in my middle-aged feet. The arch support is perfect for me."
"I absolutely love these shoes. They are light, comfortable, and can be worn for so many things. One of my best purchases."
"Comfortable, good support. No chafing without socks."
"These tennis shoes are very comfortable and cute. They fit perfectly and have arch support. They work for casual wear and being on the move."
"I really like these shoes, they are comfortable and work well for my thin feet. I already have some wear and tear in the back area where you can slide your foot in, even after only a few wears so I'm not sure that they are they most durable."
"I love Taos for the arch support and lasting support overall!"
"Tight toe box and stiff sole — would not recommend"
"I really like these shoes. They have great arch support and side support for fallen arches. I really like how stylish they are, not just your average sneaker. My only complaint is this: why do shoemakers stop at size 10 with no 10. 5? The 10 is snug, which I'll keep since no returns for this design, but an 11 would be like flippers on me. Half sizes are offered all the way up to a 10 and then jumps to a size 11. Some of us are a true size 10. 5 & can use that size offered. It seems that so many shoemakers are doing this. That is my only complaint for an otherwise great shoe. I found this also the case with the Taos white sneaker "Plim Soul" which look like boats on my feet and are too long."
