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.

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.

Very comfortable, good arch support.

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

Best casual shoe!

I love these sneakers so much!! I have been wearing them for years and my first pair just just started to look worn after 7 years of consistently wearing them. As someone who has bunions and a fallen arch, this is the only comfortable (and CUTE) sneaker my feet likes. And the toe box is wide enough without looking clown-y for my toes to move around and not feel squished all day. Highly recommend!

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.

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.

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 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 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.

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.

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 starsCarrie C.

Love these shoes. I wore

Love these shoes. I wore them all day and had no foot pain, very comfortable. I will be buying these in another color!

This is my third pair

This is my third pair - perfect fit for me, wide enough toe box but not too wide and love the versatility of these. We travel a lot and these are my go to shoes for doing a lot of walking. Highly recommend.

5 out of 5 starsGloria M.

Yes!

Love this shoe design! A little funky fashion in an extremely comfortable shoe. The tie front but zipper beside gives it a smart look and ease in putting it on. Nice arch support. This is my second pair.

5 out of 5 starsKim S.

Comfortable to wear all day

I love that I can wear these all day to teach. They are supportive enough that I don't need the insoles I usually put in sneakers. The zipper is handy and super cute!

4 out of 5 starsEnid

This pair is one of the most comfortable shoes I’ve ever walked in. I absolutely love them! Great color too. The arch support is great.

5 out of 5 starsJacqui A.

Cute and comfy!

Love the color and support. The heel seems a bit wide but overall very comfortable!

5 out of 5 starsJudy P.

Received my order and love

Received my order and love both pair of tennis shoes. I have a neuroma in the ball of one foot which makes it a challenge to find a truly comfortable shoe. I have several different styles of Taos and they all are so comfortable. Hands down my favorite!

4 out of 5 starsIvana P.

The shoes are very stiff

The shoes are very stiff for my liking, but on the other hand they seem durable. The insoles could be softer as well. The colour was cute and unique though. Overall they look nice, but time will show are they going to help me with plantar f. or not.

5 out of 5 starsDiana M.

Z is Zupportive!

Love Z Soul! I now own three pairs! Very supportive. I have plantar fascitis which flares up occasionally. These shoes help manage the flares and help me prevent them. styling and ease of on and off is great.

4 out of 5 starsLori V.

So so

I wanted to love these shoes but the one hurts my bunion and the other shoe slips on my heel. I'll probably return because I can't justify the price for so so comfort.

5 out of 5 starsMaria S.

I usually wear a size

I usually wear a size 8-8. 5 W and after reading some reviews about ordering up a size in the Z Soul, I decided to order the 8. 5W in the navy color. It fits perfectly. I like that Taos offers this in the wide width and in so many colors. This is a fun sneaker to wear and the zipper really works, making it easier to slip into and go. Interestingly, I notice my hip doesn't hurt when I wear these sneakers for walking (it will with other brand sneakers). I plan to purchase from Taos again.

4 out of 5 starsKathleen K.

So cute! Easy in and

So cute! Easy in and out with the zipper… love that! I had to return my first canvas Taos for being uncomfortably narrow. I don’t usually wear a wide but I ordered wide this time and they are still a little snug width wise. But I am hoping I’ll break them in and be okay.

4 out of 5 starsKatie E.

Wonderfully comfortable and supportive, however

Wonderfully comfortable and supportive, however the rubber sole wears quickly from regular serious walking. I purposely purchased your other thick soled runners in an effort to extend the wear time. This helped but was not ideal.

4 out of 5 starsCassandra L.

The shoes look amazing, and

The shoes look amazing, and the arch support is excellent, however I find there isn’t much padding under the balls of my feet, meaning they won’t be suitable for a full day walking for me as I hoped.

5 out of 5 starsCynthia M.

I love my Taos! Cute

I love my Taos! Cute and great support. I got the wide since they do run narrow. I would give a 4. 5 if I could, just because I wish they were a little more cushioned.

5 out of 5 starsLee R.

Love these shoes!

This zip on and zip off shoes are super comfortable. They have great support and have helped me recover from a broken foot with a sprained ankle.

Perfect fit. I wear a size 10. Put them on right out of the box and away I went. So comfortable! Love then.

Best arch support I have experienced i. A shoe. When I wear these all day, my feet do not hurt.

Sore feet

I wore them one day to be fair. I got blisters in my left foot. I should have sized up a half.

The Taos Z Soul I contemplated buying a pair for 9 months before my actual purchase;here are my thoughts after receiving and wearing them. Firstly, the shoe does have some weight to it. Not an over bearing amount but it’s not like a pair of Hey Dudes. Second, a lot of reviews said the zipper was impossible or very difficult to move. That was not the case with the pair I received. Both zippers glide smoothly. Third, and this one is important ! I have NEVER bought a wide shoe. My feet aren’t wide. After reading a bunch of reviews I felt it was necessary to buy a wide in this shoe and I am exceedingly glad I did. The regular fit would not have even come close to fitting my foot. I also went up a half size because they didn’t have a wide available in a size 7 and again, lots of reviews said these run small. I wore these barefoot and there is a little room but with a sock it will be fine. Overall, the shoe is very comfortable, fun, stylish and well made. Definitely worth the money!

Z Soul

I love these Taos shoes and this is my 3rd pair purchase! So glad to find them still available! Strong, durable, easy to clean fabric, comfortable, and outstanding quality & value for the price, true to size! Receiving a lot of positive comments from multi-generational people inquiring where to find these amazing shoes in North Carolina!

5 out of 5 starsGail J.

This is my second pair

This is my second pair of Z Souls and I can't say enough great things about them. Comfortable and supportive from the first wearing, great looking and easy on/off. I love the zipper and the pewter trim adds just the right amount of subtle pop. Will definitely purchase again in more colors.

5 out of 5 starsMarietjie C.

Absolutely love them. I've bought

Absolutely love them. I've bought a few over the years and highly rate the quality. They are just the best shoes. This pair is stunning! So classy and comfortable. The insoles are the best for my high bridge and will go so beautifully with navy pants, jeans and my tan chino.

5 out of 5 starsLorraine A.

Sooo happy

Really comfortable, great fit, l went up one size as others suggested. Fabric much better quality than l expected. Well made too and quite stylish with any outfit. Never buy shoes online as l have had some bad experiences these were worth taking the gamble

5 out of 5 starsJanie

They fit!!! I have Narrow feet so finding shoes that fit is a real challenge and Taos is my go to every time👍🏻Unfortunately, they’re still not comfortable and this is after wearing them multiple times.😕

5 out of 5 starsAlison

I'm a teacher and in my feet for most of the day! These shoes are so comfortable and supportive! I wish i had a pair 20 years ago! A little pricey, but well worth it! Getting ready to order a second pair!

4 out of 5 starsTARI D.

Taos is just a narrow shoe

I purchased regular Taos tennies that were too narrow, and then ordered the Z Soul in Wide but they didn’t feel wider than my others. I just loosened the laces on my originals and broke them in that way.

5 out of 5 starsLaura O.

Super comfortable! The first time

Super comfortable! The first time wearing them was out to a MLB game. I walked over 8000 steps and my feet never hurt. I wear a Women’s size 12 and these fit true to size.

4 out of 5 starsMegan C.

These are comfortable once on,

These are comfortable once on, but I needed help getting them zipped up until they were broken in some. The shoes are true to size and good quality for the price.

5 out of 5 starsMargo K.

Confidence!

These are awesome shoes! Comfortable to wear all day, plus I have the confidence that they will keep my steps steady ! This was my 7th purchase from Taos.

5 out of 5 starsLaurie H.

I have a wide foot

I have a wide foot with a high instep, it’s very hard to find a shoe that’s comfortable and that looks good too. I will be buying more from Taos.

5 out of 5 starsAnita F.

I can walk all day

I can walk all day in these shoes. I bought several pair in different colors. No need for my arch supports, they're built in. Love these shoes!

5 out of 5 starsKimberly

Love the color and design. I ordered the wide width, but they’re still a bit narrow. I think they’ll be okay after I’ve worn them a few times.

5 out of 5 starsMary H.

LOVE

I love these Z Soul shoes. Love the zip feature as well as the fit and comfort! I have very flat and narrow feet so these are wonderful.
