It's a fine shoe but not as comfortable as the previous version I had which had a corduroy upper. I wear these as house slippers so I have no idea how they hold up as real out-in-the-world shoes. My last pair fell apart after a year of being worn as slippers so I doubt they would be great outdoors, but they were super comfortable. These are too. Just not quite as sublimely so.

These fit well. I already had the grey pair, so this was a no brainer. This is a good color and they will work with shorts.

My husband wanted a shoe to slip on and off easily. They are comfortable and durable. He ordered a half size larger and they fit perfectly.

Great shoe. Very comfortable. Runs a bit smaller, so put that into consideration.
Great service from Zappos!

One of the best shoes I have ever owned. They are wicked durable and worth the money. Totally a minimalistic shoe and comfortable. I have about five pairs of this shoe and am mad that they are going out of business. Get them while they are hot.

I like that this product is made from recyclable materials. The style & color could have been sharper.

These are my favorite shoes! Simple stopped making them and Zappos is the only place that has them. And free shipping!

Very nice shoe. Great for people who have wide feet. This is more of a beach shoe, but is could be pulled off as a work shoe. Extremely comfy and it breathes well, so your foot does not get sweaty. I wear a size 8 shoes, but this shoe was not true to its 8 marking. I had to go to a size 9. I found this odd, because simple's flip flops did not have this problem.

This is a great shoe. It runs a little small. Order a half size larger if you ever intend on wearing socks with them. My husband likes to wear these to the airport or in the winter (beach town). Very comfortable and great price on Zappos. Super fast shipping too. They came the very next day after ordering.

Good knock around shoe, but understand the brand is folding? Zappos is the bomb, so why drive around looking for shoes? Really.

These shoes were great! They are well-made and look great! The inside of the shoes were cushioned very well, too, so they look very comfortable. I was very happy with my purchase. I bought them for my husband for Christmas and he loved them as well. The size was a little snug with socks but after you wear them for a little bit, they stretch out to fit perfectly. These shoes look great for a dressy situation as well as a casual one. Perfect!

Bought them for my husband's bday. As always Zappo's delivered them in no time-within 3 days they were on my doorstep. I asked him to rate these for me. Thanks Zappos!

Good looking shoe but much smaller than expected. Ordered 1/2 size up based on reviews and was still too small. Go a full size up. Unfortunately for me, that size was unavailable. Sending them back.

The sides of the heel of the shoe rub against the bones of my heels (both medial and lateral malleoli).

A stylish casual shoe, its main limitations are thin sole with little arch support and due to the inwardly arched heel are extremely tough to put on in the proper size (I sized up 1 whole size so I could get them on, now there's too much extra sole hanging out behind my heel).

Well first of all, I'm a girl, so size wise they fit great - for a guy's shoe. I bought a pair of these shoes over a year ago and have worn them almost daily since. I get compliments on them most days (though I've also been asked if I'm wearing my bedroom slippers!). I love them, I'm going to order another pair before Simple is out of business. Also I throw them in the washer when they're needing a little freshening and they come out great. I do have a little stitching on the heel that's coming up, but I have worn these constantly. They're cute with shorts or jeans. They are not great for serious walking - even a day of shopping they're a little too loose. These are great shoes! Buy some.

Thank you for making these great shoes available. This is my second pair and I am so disappointed that the Simple shoe company has gone away. Love Simple and Zappos.

These shoes are awesome! Bought them for my son but had to buy another pair for my best friend who absolutely loved them. They run a little small but other than that the quality is excellent. The cherry on top is that they are eco friendly which is super important to me. Love Simple shoes! Would recommend these to anybody.

Year round slippers, or shoes. Comfort you will only know until you try them on. Make sure you order a couple sizes bigger.

I absolutely loved these shoes. I had a pair that I wore nonstop. They have a very very flexible and durable sole and are durable as anything I have ever had. The padding inside the shoe is so so comfortable and these were by far the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn. I stopped wearing Johnston & Murphy shoes to work and started wearing these because I loved them so much. Sadly, I adopted a Boxer who chewed them up and since then I have not been able to find a size 12 in them to save my life.

Sanuks do not compare to these in any way, shape, or form. They are inferior build and quality.
