Love the shoes and the price. Excellent for chefs, nurses, anyone on their feet all day. Terrific support and comfortable. Now, where do I find them with a leather upper?

Decent for work. Feel a bit flimsy and not the most comfortable or stylish shoes in the world but great for the price.

I bought these shoes for my boyfriend and he really loves them. Wears the Skechers everywhere. He likes that they are so easy to slip on/off plus the non-slip grip. So far they seem to be holding up well (after a month).

These shoes worked out well for my elderly friend. She needed something comfortable and solid for the snowy NY conditions. She also has a wide foot. A great value too.

They feel a bit flimsy however they are super comfortable around the kitchen and they are a pretty good value. I would highly recommend them.

It was a perfect fit. Just what I was looking for. Just wished it came in other colors.

I work in a very large university dining hall and these clogs are very comfortable to wear throughout my work schedule. I have been using orthotics for my flat feet and the clogs accommodate the orthotics. I have not had any slippage and at the end of the work period my feet feel comfortable. The clogs are easy to clean and look nice.

As a chef I spend many hours on my feet. These are perfect for me. This is my second pair. The others lasted 2 years. Only now did the sole start to separate. They are a little snug at first but then they loosen up and are very comfortable. I received them the very next day. Very happy with everything.

This is the second pair of Balder's we have purchased. My son is a chef and loves these shoes because they are very comfortable. The website is very easy to follow and we received the shoes promptly. We have shared our experience with others and would definitely make additional purchased in the future.

Good price, great fit. I'm on my feet in these all day and they are very comfortable. No break-in time at all. There's still a little slip in the non-slip sole, but it's better than most. I'll probably order another pair in the near future to make sure to have an extra pair on hand.

I have made several purchases from Zappos over time and have always been pleased by the price; accuracy of the product description and prompt shipping. This purchase was no exception. As it was a gift for my son I was a little apprehensive about purchasing online but the shoes were exactly as described and he loved them. I have no experience with the return process since I've not returned anything that I've purchased but I must assume that it is a no hassle process as they advertise

I bought these for my husband to replace some heavy duty rubberized clogs he has had for years. This is the closest pair of clogs I have found to replace his old ones. They fit great and are comfortable. He feels they are a little too rounded (Dutch boy look) than his previous ones, but he still likes them.

I bought these for my son who is in culinary school. He loves them. They are lighter and more comfortable than the heavy Skechers they gave him in the beginning.

Great shoes - So far so good, slip resistant and good looks. Better off going one size up as they are a little snug.

Light, comfortable and well-fitting - I was quite surprised from the moment I took them out of the box. These are some of the lightest shoes I've ever worn, and oddly enough, despite that, they're quite comfortable as well. They're remarkably grippy, too. They really are no-slip. I do find that the tread is wearing a bit quickly, though.

This is a reasonable shoe. I have been seeking a clog for the operating room ever since Merrell raised the lip on the back of their breathable clog. This one does not really breath, but it is easy enough to partially slip off and slip right back on. It is also lightweight and it stays on (unlike Crocs). It is also less expensive and more comfortable than Birkies.

This shoe is great for the kitchen. It is lightweight and easy to clean off. The non slip bottom is great as well. They take a little while to get broken in. Be sure to wear really thick socks with these, cause they tend to squeeze the top of your foot at the end of an 8+ hours shift. All in all, a great shoe for the kitchen and days off.

Good shoes, very comfortable. They are a little stiff out of the box, but soften as you wear them and are not as non-slip as some other clogs I've worn. But overall a good kitchen shoe and well worth the money.

These shoes are designed to fit loosely and at first that bothered me. I use them for garden work. After I have had them on for a while I don't even notice the fit. I am pleased now and am considering a loose fitting slip-on for in the house. My experience with Zappos was great. And the two women I spoke with on the telephone when I was returning the first shoes for a different size were exceptional. I have never encountered such pleasant and helpful people before.

They are right; they can be a little warm, but good for standing at work. I took the insole out because they were pretty tight across my foot, otherwise. The slip resistance is top notch! I wore them to wash dishes and they were great!!! And the plastic kept them clean and definitely water proof. I was happy with em.

Nice looking supportive operating room shoe with nice insole, but it needs more ventilation. Fit is true to size but I prefer a slight curved last, these are straight lasted, but overall I would and probably will buy them again.
