Stylish and comfortable

I have really bad plantar fasciitis and can’t find cute shoes that my custom made orthotics fit into. These already come with an orthotic that is similar to my custom made one. They are so comfortable, I can wear them all day long. And I love the zippers so I don’t have to retire them all the time!

5 out of 5 starsFrances P.

Great shoes for bad feet! 😊

I love these shoes! I have Morton's neuroma and plantar fasciitis so finding comfortable shoes is next to impossible. I have been able to wear these all day with no pain! And I've also purchased some Taos sandals which are also some of the most comfortable shoes I've ever had!

4 out of 5 starsLeslie R.

Better Than Expected

Let’s face it, this is a fashion sneaker. That being said, it is probably the most comfortable fashion sneaker I have worn. I have severe flat feet & have to wear orthotic arch supports in all my athletic shoes to be able to walk & exercise. I was a little skeptical that these sneakers would provide enough support without my orthotics. At least enough support to wear running errands or for dinner on the town. I am very pleased with the support & plan on taking them on vacation for outings. They won’t be for all day walking or on-my-feet all day activities, but they will give a comfortable choice for social activities.

10 star shoe

Love these shoes!!! The orthotic footbed is perfect for my Plantar Fasciitis, with no bre as k-in period. Z-Soles Canvas tennis shoe with the zipper on the side are SO cute & comfortable! I’m a repeat customer!

5 out of 5 starsKimberly M.

Comfortable fit

Shoes are comfortable. Comes in a wide size. Supportive. I have to change out the arch support per my foot dr. I have plantar fasciitis and need an insert. This is my second pair. Great for casual shoe!

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.

Luv the style, adore the comfort!

Luv the zipper! These r so stylish! I have 3 pairs of these. I have a light floral, a reddish maroon floral and snakeskin. I get more compliments on all of my 6 tennies that I own. The other 3 don’t have the zippers but have very cool color schemes. Most importantly is the comfort and support. The fit and the arch support are done so well and I really thank Taos for this. I appreciate u big time as a company. I can wear these all day and I have fibromyalgia (muscle disorder), a ton of nerve pain from stenosis throughout my entire spine. I also have a ton of osteo arthritis in my legs, hips and feet. These support my body and help with keeping pain at bay. I can go for long walks and do so much on trips all day and just everyday activity. I luv these so much because I don’t have to wear the normal orthopedic footwear that is ugly as heck. I am a fashionable 65 year that can feel good about the support I am getting but also the style I get to have. Even though I have 6 tennies, they r all canvas, so now my wish list includes leather. So yes, I’m still not done with adding more Taos to my closet! Thank u for what u doTaos. Keep up the extraordinary work.

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.

5 out of 5 starsAnne G.

Comfort out of the box!

Very comfortable with good arch support. Bought these originally in size 10 but they were too narrow so exchanged for 10W which fit perfectly although I’ve never worn a wide. I will order in another color as well!

5 out of 5 starsPatty M.

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!!!

5 out of 5 starsSuzanne C.

Great support

These shoes have great support. I’ve had surgery for plantar fasciitis and these shoes give me the comfort and support I need. They are well made and love the variety of colors they come in.

5 out of 5 starsCam M.

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.

5 out of 5 starsCindy D.

Comfy and cute shoes

I have wanted to purchase a shoe with a zipper for a couple years now. I hadn't found one with a orthotic arch support in it until now. This is a great shoe! The fit and quality are worth the cost. They are so cute and fun to wear with different outfits. The arch support is comfortable and the size I purchased is a 9 which is my normal shoe size. I love the zipper feature that makes it easy to put the shoes on and take them off without having to untie and tie the shoe. What a great idea!

5 out of 5 starsElizabeth M.

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!

5 out of 5 starsLucia W.

Very comfortable, good arch support.

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

5 out of 5 starsKristin C.

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.

5 out of 5 starsAli

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!

5 out of 5 starsJoan B.

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!!

5 out of 5 starsVanessa W.

These shoes are amazingly comfortable.

These shoes are amazingly comfortable. I'm a teacher and I have flat feet and often have heel pain but I can wear these all day! Also, they are really cute!

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

5 out of 5 starsLauri G.

Trendy and comfortable for older gals!!

Why didn’t I know about you guys sooner?? Absolutely love everything about these shoes and apparently so does everyone else as I get tons of compliments on them. To be 62 and complimented on my footwear because they’re trendy and stylish makes my day. But what also makes my day (at my age) is that my feet that don’t hurt (I have bunions, need good cushion and arch support) and ease of putting them on (the zippers are functional and cute). I bought these for a trip and wore them to the airport. I ended up putting a lot more miles on them due to changed gates and my feet never barked once. You guys are now my go to company for footwear!!

5 out of 5 starsMary O.

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

5 out of 5 starsCarmela L.

GREAT SNEAKERS

My feet are so “happy” when I wear these sneakers. I have a wide foot, so it is difficult for me to find comfortable and cute sneakers/shoes. The arch support is terrific. I have a high arch and these fit the bill.

5 out of 5 starsCorinna L.

Great fit and comfortable

I have high arches and am on my feet all day. These shoes are great.

5 out of 5 starsVictoria K.

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 starsDeborah W.

Great Shoe!

This shoe fits true to size. I love that it came in the 8W size. The zipper on the side makes it so easy to get in and out of. Very comfortable with good arch support and wider toe box.

5 out of 5 starsAndrea B.

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.

5 out of 5 starsMary C.

Perfect fit!

Love them! Perfect for my plantar fasciitis. Normally wear size 10 but needed 10W and fit perfect!

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 starsSeona R.

These are exceptional quality. And

These are exceptional quality. And super comfortable. I’ve had to adjust my shoe preferences for plantar fascitis and these give me the look I want and the comfort I need.

5 out of 5 starsAlison W.

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.

5 out of 5 starsTheresa Z.

A little tight, but they

A little tight, but they stretch out just a little. I love the arch support. I have neuropathy in my toes from cancer and these have been comfortable.

5 out of 5 starsKimberly C.

The shoes are very stylish

The shoes are very stylish as well as a great arch support. I put them on as soon I received them and have worn them ever since with no foot pain.

5 out of 5 starsDebbie T.

Amazing

Love these shoes! Comfortable right out of the box. I have a difficult time finding comfortable shoes with Morton’s Neuroma and these are perfect!

4 out of 5 starsTom F.

Love the look but definitely

Love the look but definitely long and thin, even in Wide. High arch is great but a softer sole (more cushion) would be nice for all day comfort.

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 starsClair H.

New Favorite

Love so many of the features. I bought these for an upcoming trip to Greece and I’m in love with them. The zipper feature is so convenient, the arch support is amazing, and since I have narrow feet (AAAA), I love the narrow fit which keeps my heels from slipping. I can wear them comfortably all day! I also purchased them in the Oyster color.

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 starsCynthia P.

Vaca sneakers

I got these because I travel a lot and they seem to go with just about every outfit. I took them on a recent trip and they were great - very comfortable with good support for all day walking. They are super cute too!

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 starsKathleen W.

Good for your soul and some!

Good for the soul and sole! This is my sixth pair of Taos shoes. I wanted a fun pair of sneakers when I did not want to put my running shoes on. The first week I had these I wore them on vacation and on the beach and my feet adjusted so well, I did not even need my orthotics which I usually move around to different shoes when walking a lot. Supported my arches, and ankle issues from past injuries. I usually wear a 9.5 in running shoe, I did get the 10 though they have a little bit more room in them, I wanted to make sure if I needed to put my insoles in at any time I could and wear a thicker sock.

4 out of 5 starsHeather R.

Comfy and great casual look

These shoes are comfortable and fit great. I bought a 7.5W and ha e no issues with tightness or hurting my bunion. The zipper is a really nice addition. My only complaint is the laces. To get the look in the picture the long laces are tucked inside the shoe. I don't notice the except that with wear it become loose without the laces tied. Still love it and recommend the purchase.

5 out of 5 starscheryl

Adorable

I just received Z Soul in grey, and they are adorable. I will wear them for once before I compulsively hit the button in another color! I ordered them in wide because I have a bunion, and the toe box seems plenty adequate. Super adorable shoe and my normal size appears to fit perfectly. Received in less than a week.

4 out of 5 starsClintons T.

Cute Shoe

These shoes are so cute. I left one star off because I think the shoe needs a better insert. It needs to have more cushion under the toe area. I bought the wide and they work great for bunions. They are not a long walking shoe. I bought another brand for that with a better heel support.
