Love my shoes except - The reviews I read before ordering were great. I was prepared for the straps to irritate and they do. I put tape on the spots and everything is fine. The brown shoes look just as I expected. What I like best is that I can wear my orthotics with these shoes. I have a very hard time finding shoes that fit. I have small feet with medium width, but they're thin (from ball of foot to top of foot). My podiatrist tells me to buy a 5.5 next time and wear the orthotic over the removable arch support. The shoe fits much better now, but next time I'll get the larger size.

Other shoes recommended by reviewer: I love anything New Balance.

These are wonderful shoes for walking. Since I live in Colorado, I needed shoes for walking and going up and down hills. We have bought several pairs of shoes in the past from Zappos'. Their service is excellent.

Almost perfect, super light, comfy casual shoe - This almost perfect, cute shoe is light and comfy. Elastic strap provides for customized fit, and the shoe even accommodates an orthotic. Choice of colors are basic but so is the shoe. What keeps it from being "perfect" is the flimsiness factor. Obviously not designed for hiking or running, the shoe doesn't hold up well even when used for errands in the neighborhood or short walks to the local bus stop. After a few weeks, the shoe begins losing shape. Never the less, if one is looking for an inexpensive, comfy, casual shoe that won't necessarily last a lifetime, this is a great choice.

Great shoe! Looks really nice as a casual shoe, cool in the summer without socks. I have a really narrow foot and even on long walks, didn't have any rubbing spots.

Finally a stylish New Balance shoe - I've worn New Balance shoes for years because nothing beats them for incredible foot comfort. I work on my feet so it's vital to me! This shoe is a pleasant surprise in that it's attractive looking as well as comfortable. That had been my one reservation about New Balance shoes. They were some of the most blocky looking running shoes on the market. The comfort & kindness to my feet were more important to me than looks but it sure is great to have a New Balance shoe which is a little more pretty looking.

A cute cool lady's summer sneaker - I originally bought my size, but found the shoe to be a half size larger; I re-ordered and the half size difference provided me with a very comfortable good looking walking sneaker.

I'm very happy with these shoes. I usually wear a size 10, but I had to return them for a 9.5. I have to say the customer service at Zappos is the greatest. These shoes look and feel good all day. If you have a wide foot these shoes will fit well.

Wow, was I disappointed in these! Look at the close-up picture carefully. There's a mesh, but also a canvas-type material. Just one thin layer of canvas; it's not lined or anything. The effect feels really cheap, frankly. On top of that, the toe box is pretty wide, and if it's roomy, without any lining or support, it will just pucker as you move, and, again, look frankly cheap. Really not what I expected from a NB shoe. Luckily, returns are as convenient as always. Thanks Zappos!

Very light weight closed toe, good that way. Would be better if strap was adjustable.

Walking tour - I walked all over Italy in this shoe. I did, however, have to use an orthotic. There is no arch. Also, on the outside where the elastic is attached, it rubs. So you have to cushion this area with a band aid or something. But I must say when those two things are done it is a good shoe to walk in.

My feet are very difficult to fit: very narrow, but I still prefer a wide toe box and a flexible, springy sole. This shoe is very pretty, looks good with both jeans and skirts, and stays comfortable all day long. Although it is very roomy on me, it still works well, even for jogging. I am so happy with it, that I bought several pairs.

Very comfortable shoe for summer. This shoe was very true to size. I have been wearing these shoes at work for a casual summer look. They are comfortable, cool, and I have received many favorable comments on the style. I would definitely recommend this shoe.

Down size - I had to return the first pair of these because they were too big - I got a 1/2 size smaller and that did the trick. I absolutely love these shoes and they are especially light weight if you need something to pack in a suitcase for summer vacation.

Comfortable, warm weather shoe. I like to wear socks or Peds, but this shoe probably looks better on sockless feet.

New Balance WA720 - This shoe is perfect when you need something in between sandals and running shoes. It is comfortable, neat looking, and dressy enough to wear with casuals.

Deep Shoe - The width and length are great, but it would need an insole to take up the extra depth. Ideal for orthotics. The elastic strap is wide and should hold the shoe in place but it's too long and not adjustable which meant I couldn't tighten it to hold my foot in place. A narrower or shorter shoes wouldn't have helped. Wonderfully light weight shoes and ideal for summer but I had to return them since they just didn't fit my feet.

A nice walking shoe - I ordered this shoe because it was a more affordable version of the ones I wanted. In the end, I probably should have paid the extra money. These felt less ballet slipperish than the other pair (if that makes any sense) and they have far more mesh on them than the picture lets on. They also seem to be to loose to wear without socks but would look ridiculous with socks.

New Balance WA720 - I like these shoes except for one problem. Without socks, the stitching that anchors the straps irritates my feet so I've had to put tape over the stitches, but the tape keeps coming off.

Nice shoe but no arch support - I have found the shoe fine as a "slipper" but without support as I have come to expect in a New Balance shoe. I would expect the shoe to be priced in a lower category as a slipper.
