Z Soul

Love these sneakers--and that zipper!

I recently rediscovered the benefits of wearing Taos when my plantar fasciitis flared once again. Wearing Taos, whether the boots, the slippers or the sneakers, relieves the pain and makes my day so much better. These sneakers are so cute. And I must admit the ease of zipping into them is wonderful. I could wear them all day right out of the box. They support my heels, and hold my feet in the perfect comfort. I really recommend Taos if you have any foot pain at all.

Great for flat feet

The arch support is so sturdy, I don't need ny orthotics! Walked for an hour with no back pain. Super psyched to travel with these

Worth every penny!

I absolutely love these shoes! I bought two pairs about a year and a half ago and have worn them almost nonstop. They are getting a bit worn so I bought two more that came in this week! These shoes have very comfortable soles with great arch support. I have arthritis in my ankles and hips and have both knees replaced. These are the some of the only shoes I can wear all day long walking in concrete sidewalks. I live the zipper too! It makes it so easy to slip in and out of them.

Great sneakers!

I needed a few wearings a to make the Z Soul fit as I had hoped. The pair has molded to my feet well, which is a feat--no pun intended--since one foot is in worse shape due to a knee problem along with flat feet/no arch and occasional plantar fasciitis on both feet. The molded insole and zipper for quick on/off are great for me. I am already thinking about buying another pair.

Love the fit and the look!

The fit is perfect, and the arch support is OMG fantastic, especially if you suffer from plantar fasciitis. I walked 14k steps/day on different types of surfaces and had zero foot discomfort. The look is super cute, but my only complaint is the zipper is sometimes a bit tough to close. That said, its not constant and I would buy again and again.

Love these shoes!

I rarely buy shoes on the internet because they rarely fit or match the quality advertised. The Z Soul fit perfectly and haven’t yet caused my feet to hurt even after a full days walking. I’m in my 70’s and have bunions on both feet but my right foot is particularly bad. I purchased a 9W and prayed I wouldn’t have to return them. I am so pleased with Taos Z Soul that I even purchased another pair (different style) on sale knowing I wouldn’t be able to return them. They haven’t caused any pain and the arch support is fantastic keeps my back from hurting and the toe box keeps my bunions from screaming! They definitely lived up to their advertisement.

My favorite shoes

I have a high arch, just found that out last year from my neurologist. I also have neuropathy. These shoes make all the difference. A built in arch on every pair is a great way to live in comfort. Plus the quality of Taos shoes is top notch!!!

This is now my fourth

This is now my fourth pair of Z Soul. I love them all! I love the arch support, the ease of getting them on and off with the zipper, especially has I have arthritis. I find they work well casually as well as for a slightly dressy look. My oldest pair is still looking very good, even though I have worn them quite a bit. I always get complements on them and refer people to this website. As I said before, I love them! They do run a little short and narrow, so I have them all in a half size larger than some of my other shoes.

Z Soul Shoes

The shoes are an excellent fit and support my high arches. Zipping up the shoes is a little tricky in the beginning but I can wear them all day in my retail job and they stay comfortable and supportive all day long!

Very comfortable, good arch support.

Very comfortable, good arch support. Wore them walking in Europe with no foot pain.

Super cute shoe with supportive arch

I really like the Z soul. I like that it zips or ties and has a great arch support. This shoe does run narrow so I really wanted to try a wide version but did find that the length was true to size. It is a bit of a heavy shoe so unsure as to whether I’ll end up packing it to go on a trip involving a plane. If Taos technology could figure out how to make it less rubber heavy, this could be the perfect shoe.

Adorable and comfortable -- a win-win

First, they're adorable. Second, they're comfortable. Third, I love that they come in wide AND they have a side zipper -- which not only looks great, but also makes these sneakers super easy to get on and off. That's an A+ for someone with bunions who thought she'd never again find a cool-looking and comfortable shoe!

Amazing

Loved your sneakers. . Recent travel average 10 miles day. . your sneakers were amazing. . side note I have plantar fasciitis and It issues, typically not on this trip!!

TAO z soul

Has been helpful to use this shoe for comfort while taking it easy as my plantar fasciitis is recovering. I got the shoe a bit bigger and wide.

Love them!

Great shoes for plantar fasciitis. Comfy and cute. Definitely recommend. Would be good international travel shoes

I love the z soul,

I love the z soul, I love the look of it, I love the functionality of the shoe. I do not have to untie, I just unzip and step out of them. I have had two pair previously and did not keep the arch supports in. so I am trying them this time with the arch supports. I am hoping the arch support will help my bunions. I will report back on that. the quality of the Taos shoe is great. My first two pair of shoes were the Moc Star 2. great shoe also love the look and the fit, and the durability. I had those shoes for two years wore them just about everyday, and through them in the wash several times. Taos are my favorite tennis shoe

Comfortable

These shoes are extremely comfortable! I wear size 9 and they fit perfect. I also have flat feet and the arch support is great!

Love love love! Perfect for long narrow feet (size up!)

(Remember to size up!) Best Shoe Brand, I have so many now ! Love the arch support and the high quality throughout and the trendy style, colours and patterns. So much better for my feet and back. I’m a 9 or 9. 5 and a size 10 is perfect for me. I have long narrow feet so finding a good fit can be hard.

Foot heaven!

Foot heaven! 💜I love all my Taos. I have been buying this brand for years. My high arch and plantar was the original reason but I love the styles and the durability. Every pair of sandals, sneakers, shoes last and last. My daughters-in-law said ‘white sneakers’. The zipper adds a little fun to it all.

I’m newly needing to find

I’m newly needing to find shoes that support my plantar fasciitis that are also cute, and these are just that! I love wearing a pop of red. I love the zipper for easy on/off and I love the way they feel!

These shoes are perfect with

These shoes are perfect with my orthotics. I have non diabetic neuropathy and these are the first shoes in a while that can stand for more than an hour on my feet. I love them!

I have high arches and

I have high arches and flat casual shoes are not comfortable for me. Taos shoes have amazing arch support and my feet feel completely supported all around. Also, my feet don’t hurt when I take them off which can sometimes happen with ortho type shoes (I. e. Dansko’s). I am super happy with these shoes and will definitely purchase more from this company.

Z Soul

I am very pleased with the Z Spul sneaker. I have difficulty finding shoes that fit my narrow flat feet. These have been very comfortable and supportive. Not to mention easy to get in and off with the side zipper!

Cute style but lack support

I have a pair of Taos sandals that are very supportive of my medium high arch so I was expecting more support in these shoes. However, they are otherwise very comfortable.

Love these. I have had

Love these. I have had foot surgery and Taos are the only brand I can wear all day. I have sandals and leather sneakers as well. All a perfect and supportive fit.

Love these shoes! I have

Love these shoes! I have flat feet but the arch support makes wearing these shoes so comfortable. Not my first pair of Taos…. definitely won’t be my last!

These shoes are so comfortable,

These shoes are so comfortable, and the arch support means no foot pain at the end of the day.

Stylish shoe, but hurts me too much

They're really cute, but are rather narrow and after walking all day my feet felt so crunched. I loosened the laces all the way, but the fabric is stitched to only separate so far. The arch support is very good, but in the ball of the foot area there seems to be some very slightly raised padding which triggered the metatarsalgia I have on my right foot. For a regular foot it might feel cushioned and nice, but when the ball of your foot is tender something pushing into it (even padding) causes pain. I won't be able to wear these shoes. I can't return them because I walked all over on vacation with them and suffered a lot, even mostly limping because they were the only shoes I brought.

Love these shoes!

I love these shoes. I wanted a slightly more stylish shoe that allowed me to walk in them all day and I got it. They are seriously comfortable. I walked all over Manhattan and and stood a lot at a museum exhibit and my shoes were great. They kept me going. They are quite heavy for sneakers, but still comfy and very walkable. Great arch support.

Great Arch Support

These are great shoes, I need shoes with really good arch support and cushioning and these have both! The only thing I take away a star for is the shoe crease at zipper when you walk and it digs into my little toe. So great for casual but I couldn't walk all day in them

The best Shoes I own!

I bought a tie pair 4 years ago before going on a 17 day trip. I was so happy I did as we walked miles everyday. That pair is still in great shape & i saw the zipper one. I had to have them. I am thrilled with my purchase. Great arch support & i can wear them all day

I love these! I always

I love these! I always loved Converse but could never wear because they had no arch support. These are BETTER! I love the zipper for ease of putting on. They are SO comfortable and I am on my feet ALL day! I love them so much I bought several more pair!

Comfortable and cute

Really comfortable and cute. I love the side zipper. Makes it easy to slip on. Great arch support. I wear these to work - I'm a teacher and I'm on my feet most of the day. These will be really useful for an upcoming trip I'm taking. Great arch support.

Great shoe

Comfortable, sturdy, easy to wear shoe. Great arch support, comfortable toe box, lightly padded back. My second pair of this style, definitely not my last

Adorable

These shoes are as cute as the photos. Work pretty well with bunions although I haven’t walked real far in them yet.

Great cute shoe

Love the shoe but the wide is still too narrow for my bunions which makes my feet hurt and so far are still stiff. I am optimistic the canvas will stretch a bit. The zippers are great to get out of the shoe but won’t zip up to get into the shoe. Mixed on how i feel.

LOVE

Love these shoes, they are extra comfy and stylish, I have really flat feet so they provide good support. Bonus for me is that I can just use the zipper to get them on and off (I hate tying my shoes lol).

White Z Soul

They run short and the white is hard to keep clean even after using a protective spray. I wish I would have chosen a different color. I love the arch support and I’ve had no back pain while wearing them.

Good shoe

I wish they were wider. These shoes are best for narrow feet, without bunions. I had to use a shoe widener before wearing them for the first time. They require a break in period.

I love these shoes! Such

I love these shoes! Such a great neutral color that looks great with everything! Having foot problems, the arch support helps tremendously! Great purchase!

these shoes are amazing! My

these shoes are amazing! My 2nd pair. I have narrow feet and some arthritis and they are supportive but also fit snug for the narrowness

Good for the soul!

Great gym shoe. My first time trying this style. But with the orthotic insert they are so supportive. Very comfortable and stylish.

Nice stylish sneaker

Comfortable but would like a little more support since I have a high arch.

On the go

Purchased the Z Soul Sneakers primarily for travel, the easy in/out zipper initially caught my attention, plus so many fabulous color choices. The reason I keep returning to Taos is the quality of their shoes and the arch support. They are stable shoes meant for action, that look great too.

Love these shoes!

I always wanted a red pair of sneakers and these are perfect! They are so comfortable and so cute! I love the arch support; and the zipper makes it so easy to put on my shoes and take off! I could wear these shoes all day long! I have these shoes in gold too!

Z Souls Rock!

These are the most comfortable, yet hip, sneakers I have found. The wide toe box and arch support are everything! And the zipper adds a certain cool factor to the design. I now have 2 pair of Z Souls and one pair of Taos lace-ups. Love them all!!

Love these. They’re my second

Love these. They’re my second pair. Ordered 7 1/2 W for my first pair. Went with 8 W on this new pair. The fit is much better for my wide feet. This is a very well-made shoe with great arch support and stability.

My new favorite shoes

These shoes are adorable. They look like Converse, in a way, but have great arch support and were comfortable the very first day. They are of excellent quality and should last a long time.

Z soul

Nice looking shoe. Like the style and zipper with good arch support and removable insole. Is a flat soled shoe which is fine for short distances. Fast walking or running is difficult.

Cute & Comfy!

This is my second pair of Taos sneakers. The arch support is great. I can walk all over town in them! As other reviewers have mentioned, the toe box is a bit narrow/stiff.
