Best shoes I’ve ever purchased

I have plantar fasciitis and high arches. These shoes provide excellent support and are comfortable to walk in all day long. Without a doubt the best shoes I’ve ever purchased.

5 out of 5 starsGinny J.

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.

5 out of 5 starsLynn C.

Great buy

I love these easy on comfortable shoes. I love all my Taos for their arch support for my plantar fasciitis!!

5 out of 5 starsLeah W.

My favorite shoes right now

Since these arrived I’ve been wearing them more than any of my other casual sneakers. I have low arches and plantar fasciitis, and the arch support and heel cushion are great without feeling like they’re too thick. I’ve received compliments every time I wear them! They’re fun and comfortable, easy to put on and they go with just about anything…what more could you ask for??

4 out of 5 starsClare C.

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.

5 out of 5 starsGeorgeann B.

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.

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.

Very comfortable, good arch support.

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

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.

5 out of 5 starsElizabeth

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

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.

5 out of 5 starsPiper C.

Great arch support. Looking forward

Great arch support. Looking forward to being able to walk all day while on vacation. I’ll buy more styles with this insole.

VERY high arches

I was looking at these shoes for months. They are so cute and I love the zip on feature. I have never had this problem before with any other shoes, but the very supportive insoles had extremely high arches. I couldn’t even zip up the zipper half-way. And I didn’t want to take out the insoles because I bought them for the support. The insoles also cause the toe area to drop down lower than I like. But if you don’t have picky feet, these may be non-issues. They are cute and the quality seems good.

5 out of 5 starsKelly B.

I love my Taos sneakers!

I love my Taos sneakers! The fit is perfect and the arch support perfect for my flat feet . The colors are beautiful! Taos is my go to brand for arch support. I have one ask-please bring back floral patterns for your sneakers. My old pairs are getting worn out but I still get compliments on them .

5 out of 5 starsNina D.

I absolutely love my new

I absolutely love my new sneakers! They are cute, fit great, easy to put on and take off (thank you side zipper), and, of course, give me the arch support my high arches need. The arch support is the reason originally tried Taos! They feel orthopedic, but certainly don't look it!

5 out of 5 starsGail W.

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!

5 out of 5 starsRebecca P.

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.

5 out of 5 starsSharon H.

Great style and comfort

Love everything about this canvas sneaker. Great arch support, cushioning , and although they are canvas, they feel almost like a suede. Especially rich looking because I got the honey brown shade. And a must for me was the zipper. Once you've owned sneakers with a zipper you won't go back…so easy and quick and the laces are always perfectly tied. I was a bit disappointed to see they were made in China.

5 out of 5 starsLeslie L.

Wore these for 12 hours on day 1, so comfortable!

Got these in the Carhartt brown color and love them! They fit true to size, the zipper is cute and a nice solid construction of metal. The zipper is a bit stiff and sticky, but functional and comfortable on the side of the foot. Toe box is nice and wide. The arch support is superb and I have found my new shoe company! Will definitely be buying more from them!

5 out of 5 starsChristine C.

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.

5 out of 5 starsSuzanne S.

I really like these. They

I really like these. They run a tiny bit longer then the Plim Soul shoes that I bought also. I have found them very comfortable and to have a great arch support. I would prefer to be barefoot, but my different foot issues make that a bad choice now. These are the shoes I can wear all day and my feet thank me for it!

4 out of 5 starsKatherine E.

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

5 out of 5 starsPaula P.

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

5 out of 5 starsGayla C.

Kicky youthful shoe

I love the casual canvas shoe! It screams hip and high quality while giving comfort with arch support to carry you through the day of doing whatever you are doing. Taos footware rules for comfort and style! ❤️❤️

5 out of 5 starsPaula G.

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

5 out of 5 starsLeeanne J.

Adorable

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

5 out of 5 starsCarol D.

Love Z Soul

Wonderful shoes. This is my 2nd pair of Z Soul and 4th pair of sneakers from Taos Shoes. They are the only sneakers that fit and are comfortable with my narrow feet and high arches. They are great looking and I get many compliments. I normally wear size 6 but buy 6 1/2.

4 out of 5 starsTamara

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.

5 out of 5 starsMaria

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).

5 out of 5 starsDavid K.

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

5 out of 5 starsNancy H.

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.

4 out of 5 starsLynn P.

Nice stylish sneaker

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

4 out of 5 starsMegan R.

This is my second pair

This is my second pair of Taos shoes. They are super comfy and have great arch support. I took one star off because the zipper on the left shoe keeps getting stuck, making it very hard to zip when on my foot, which is a huge bummer because I chose this style particularly for the ease of using the zipper to put shoes on. I loosened the laces thinking that would help, but it still gets stuck half way up. I have adjusted to keep it halfway zipped when I put it back on, but I wish I didn’t have to do that, considering the expense of the shoe.

5 out of 5 starsHeidi

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.

5 out of 5 starsPatricia Y.

Amazingly comfy and stylish!

I got these just before a trip to Europe and did not have time to wear them in. They were fantastic so comfortable and the arch support is amazing. I climbed many hills to ruins and castles and they stayed clean and constantly comfortable. Very happy with my purchase.

5 out of 5 starsJanice S.

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!

5 out of 5 starsKristine W.

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!!

4 out of 5 starsPatricia T.

Stylish sneakers

Love the color, style & arch support. Side zipper adds style & ease of putting on & taking off sneakers. Only con: a bit too heavy. But a keeper, they were comfortable right out of the box!

5 out of 5 starsRachel

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.

4 out of 5 starsJoan D.

Comfortable Cute Shoe

After wearing a few times, I find them to be very comfortable and love the arch support. I feel Taos shoes run narrow. I did order a wide and it is fine. I typically never order wide.

5 out of 5 starsRochelle M.

Love my Taos sneaks.

Great fit, good quality, and great arch support. Taos is my “go to” brand for both sneakers and sandals. The side zipper allows for ease of getting on and off.

Z Soul Comfort

These stylish shoes are not only cute but provide the arch support I need. The fit is great. I can walk in comfort and style all day long.

Great comfortable and stylish shoes

Love my Z Soul shoes, vibrant color, fun side zipper and great arch support. Lots of compliments when I wear them.

Great for travel

Great for traveling through airports. Arch support is a great fit for me. Love the style.

Great shoe

Very cute and comfortable with great arch support. Love the zipper.

4 out of 5 starsLauren M.

Good shoe

Really good looking shoe - I get many compliments. Zipper is super-stiff; I had to use WD-40 to loosen up both of them, and now they're fine. When I first put on, the shoe was very tight and I was disappointed - until I realized, I just need to adjust the laces until I could slip in and out of these better. Now I do so without having to lace or use the zipper - and they still look fine. They are a bit stiff and my right foot (I have a slight bunion) was pretty uncomfortable for a few days, but okay now. I'm undecided, but may have sized up a 1/2 - still trying to decide. All in all, I would still buy them again. Very supportive, good style, good quality.

5 out of 5 starsElvia A.

Cute shoe but poor fit

At first the shoes were too tight- so I took out the insoles. Without the insoles they were too big. I decided to break them in, I wore them all day, but by the end of the day, a bunion on my right foot was throbbing so much, that I gave up on the sneakers. The zipper also unzipped throughout the day. Returning to my adidas.

5 out of 5 starsDonna R.

The best shoes for foot pain!

The wide toe box makes all the difference with these shoes. The zipper makes them so easy to get on and off. They are my go-to shoes so much so that I haven’t bought them in 4 different colors. Love them!

5 out of 5 starsCatherine B.

I absolutely love my sneakers.

I absolutely love my sneakers. I have flat feet and have a problem finding shoes that are comfortable. They are so comfortable I wore them all day. I decided to order another pair. I do recommend them.
