To call these shoes the greatest invention in the history of the universe does not do justice to their wonder. Thanks to my mother, who despite being a mere 5'3" tall has rather sizeable feet, I was born with the family curse of larger than necessary feet. Many a time I see a pair of shoes that I adore but, upon requesting them in my size, recoil in disgust at the gargantuan monster that lay before me. That was of course until I met the Converse Chuck Taylor All Star Shoreline Slip-On Ox. Upon first glance, I was intrigued by their cuteness but I feared that, like most Converses, they would do all they could to accentuate the size of my size 10s. Then I noticed something intriguing, rather than the usual set of six grommets, these little guys only featured four. I was curious to see if this would make a difference and decided to take a chance. When they arrived I, like Cinderella, presented my out-stretched foot and hoped that this would be the fit I had always dreamed of. Anxiously and cautiously, I placed my size 10s into the shoes and then nervously walked to my full-length mirror. Before me I saw a miracle, not only were they as adorable as I had hoped but rather than seeing feet which looked larger, or even normal size, I saw what appeared to be smaller feet. What I had waited for all my life was currently upon my person and I could not believe my good fortune. They are cute with capris, cute with shorts, cute with dresses. These shoes are perfection. These shoes are magical. These shoes are the greatest invention in the history of the universe.

Wow these reviews are really all over the place, ha ha ha! I had to try 3 different sizes because I saw so many reviews saying these run small. From now on I will trust the majority, for I found these to be true to size. I'm normally a size and 9, and 9 fits me perfectly and looks awesome, with and without (thin) socks. FYI the toe box is uncomfortable because it's tapered, which is not how normal toes are made. Your big toe or little toe will contact the side unless you go a size larger. But if you do, then the shoe is longer and not very attractive, it's a tradeoff. I think these are true to size for people with narrow feet. Also, I think the heel is shorter than usual, in order to look more feminine, so your heel may pop out if you put inserts or wear thick socks. They're not suitable for rough all-day wear in my opinion (I think I'll invest in the Ugg Evera for that). A reviewer mentioned how there is some edge inside that irritated the top of her foot, you can remedy that by adjusting the tongue. I really love the look of these shoes, a femmy Converse, that has only 4 lace holes! But personally I don't like the knotted lace end, so I tuck mine inside to look clean. I also intend to wear these without laces sometimes for a different look. I hope my review helps some! Zappos is fantastic and all you lovely ladies are supremely wonderful. Have a great day. :)

Good shoes but the left one was defective. Rubber banding on the side was not attached to the sole so water seeped up and soaked my sock.

I grew up wearing Chucks, I was looking for a new pair that was a little different and found these. I am in love with them. People notice that they are different and ask "Where did you find those?" "Zappos, of course!" These, like all Chucks take a couple wears before they stretch out a little. I usually use a little moleskin or KT on my "pinky toes" to keep the friction down for these first couple wears. I do have wider feet than most women, so that might also be why. I have had them for a couple months now and am going to buy the other colors because I live in the things. I love these shoes, slip-on for the win.

Main problem is that I am a size 10, and this shoe just accentuates the length of my foot. Some shoes just look like a different shoe when you get from a cute size 7 to a shovel-size 10. When I looked down I felt like I was wearing clown shoes and that's an exaggeration, but I couldn't get past how long they looked, might have been that the white part was pretty long. They would look good on you though(if you aren't any more than a size 9). Also, not much support if you need it, pretty flat inside. I wanted to like these for my feet, but the problem is more my feet than the shoe.

These are awesome. I love the lower cut of the slip on style, looks super cute with shorts, skirts, jeans, perfect summer kicks. I wear a size 11 and had to return them for a 10 - they do run large. The 10s are probably a hair snug but I'm pretty confident they will stretch out with time, and certainly fit better than the 11s which were too large. Rarely do I have to size down, so thanks, Zappos, for the easy returns & free shipping!

I am a 9.5 in Skechers, which is my ho to brand for most other shoes, but summer jeans converse for me. I know sizing is all over the place in the reviews, but I can honestly say if you’re willing to break the shoe in, you can get away with going a half size down. I’m a 7men/9women in the traditional converse, so I assumed I’d be the same in the shoreline. Almost had a heart attack when I had to fight to get my foot into these, but once it was on, my feet fit perfectly in these. No toes pinched or cramped.
I’m on day 3 of wearing the new shoreline and they are just as easy to get on as my old pair (same style, different color) and I’m good to go.
Note- I don’t wear socks with my shoreline, so factor that in on sizing if you plan to wear socks with yours.
Also - I know the plus on these is that your feet look smaller, but if you’re prone to ankle swelling (and I am), your ankles can and will look like sausages in these bad boys on the not so good days. It’s not pretty. Because of that, I’m going to buy a pair of the regular converse and just mix them up depending on if I’m swollen or not. I’d rather have bigger looking feet on those days. ??

Those shoes are classic and adorable. I wear them on a regular basis. So comfortable! Keep in mind though they run half a size smaller. I normally wear a size 6, and I ordered a 6.5, they fit me perfectly!

I tried so hard to like these. They are SUPER cute! They don't make your feet look big, in fact, they are dainty and adorable.
However, the softer heel cup slouched down the moment I tried them on. Despite being very careful and pulling up on the heel tab, the heel cub still slouches and creases below the end of my heel. It is very uncomfortable. I have very average width feet. However, I had to unlace the top lace holes to allow the laces enough slack to fit my foot. The elastic that holds the tongue in place serves it's purpose well, but the added elastic made the tongue really dig down into the top of my foot.
Sadly, I have chosen to exchange these for the basic white Chuck Taylors. Thankfully Brandi on Zappos Live Chat offered ABOVE AND BEYOND customer service and helped me with the exchange. Even though these Chucks didn't work out, I will continue to shop on Zappos because of their flawless service.

These are adorable shoes...and are surprisingly very comfortable. I was skeptical of how they would feel on and if they would slip because of the stretchy back heel, but they fit snug, yet give enough to provide comfort (and won't require the usual breaking in process that canvas shoes like this need). The soft grey is an perfect color that goes with anything. I bought them for when the weather warms up to go with shorts, skirts, and long pants and no socks. They will be perfect. Also, because of the the way the laces start lower and you don't tie them up high, they look less like a clunky sneaker and more dainty so you can wear them easily with skirts. They definitely run large. I usually wear a 6.5 in sandals, flats, heels and a 7-7.5 in running shoes. I ordered a 6 (because they were out of stock on 6.5) and glad that I did. They fit perfect and I can tell after wear, they will give a lot more. A 6.5 would have been too large.

These are perfect! I needed shoes to wear to a formal event but still wanted to be able to dance and move. I have bad ankles so heels are out. I picked the Dainty Ox and this one to try on. The Dainty Ox did not look as dainty on my feet as these did. They were also not extremely thick (thus less chance of me rolling an ankle in them). I have size 12 (or 11) in womens so flats usually fall off because of the length and a lot of shoes end up looking like boats. These looked feminine but could hold up to me. I spent all night in them without a complaint. I could see how they could rub but they didn't. I bought the Vans no show socks to wear with them and they hung in. I will be buying more pairs of these shoes!

Love these! Since they only have 4 grommets they don't make your feet look like boats. I'm a size 8 and these fit true to size. They are super comfortable!

I purchased a pair of Shorelines along with a pair of Lift Slips in the same size, women's 11. The Lift Slip shoes feel amazing, very comfortable and roomy, no issues. The Shorelines, however, gave me blisters. The Shorelines don't feel tight or anything so it doesn't seem like a sizing issue but more the way they are constructed. It feels like the stitching and/or fabric is rubbing my two smallest toes on either foot. I've since purchased some no-show socks which certainly helps with the rubbing, BUT even though they are low profile shoe liners you can still clearly see them. It's not the end of the world but I find it mildly infuriating. Maybe after wearing them a few times they will break in, soften up and I can go back to wearing them without socks. Since I've worn them I can't return them so either I break the shoes or they break me.

I absolutely love them! In slip on shoes I am usually a 6.5 or 7 and I ordered 6.5 in these and they fit perfectly. I think if I ordered a 7 they would slip off the back which is usually fine but these have the elastic back which would probably fall. They are super cute and will go with a ton of outfits. I have never worn Converse before but I love this style with the short tied laces. Exactly what I was looking for to wear with dressier hoodies & jackets this Fall/Winter.

They are super cute but definitely not comfortable. I wanted these as my everyday shoe running around with shorts, jeans, skirts. Ugh. Bummer! I have to wear a bandaid in one toe in order to wear them. But they are cute!

Love these shoes! I was debating between these and the original All Stars, and I am glad to try these this time. They will go perfectly with rolled-up jeans, shorts and dresses/skirts. Like all Converse, they run long (and narrow), so I would order a size down. I did have to break them in.

I've never been a big fan of Converse, but when I saw these, I decided to give them another try. I love that these have 4 grommets vs the std 6. I've always felt that with 6, the tongue was a little too high up on the top of my foot. I have small feet and 6 grommets made them look very long (I can only imagine how ladies with bigger feet felt). I also love the elastic in the heel, as it provides a better fit. I read the reviews before I ordered and went down half a size. I normally wear a 6.5 and ordered a 6. It fits perfectly with room in the toe box - I know that I won't have sore big toes after wearing these out all night. They are a little narrow, but nothing that won't stretch out after a few wears.

I think these are great looking and I love Converse but these just did not work. I was disappointed in the fit. I usually wear an 8½ in Converse and these fit but the backs kept slipping off. I guess it goes with the name but I mean the backs just kept slipping off. Hence the name. But I did not want Converse slippers! I sent them back and got the Converse Dainty Ox and love them. They have a slimmer look but still provide the classic Converse look and feel.

My daughter immediately complained that the heels slip right off when she walks, and the vestigial shoelaces can't be used to make the shoes fit better because they're too short to even tie shut at all.

These are probably the cutest converse I’ve ever tried on and now own. I usually order them or go to a store to try them on and decide they’re not for me, but something keeps pulling me back in. I am so glad I tried these out. I was looking for a cute grey casual shoe. These fit great, way cuter than normal Chucks and are far more comfortable!

Had to go a full size down from my usual athletic shoe size (half size down from dress shoe size). No arch support, but otherwise comfortable. And they look good (I think).
