I've tried about every slip on athletic shoe and van-type shoe there is with very little luck. I have a super high instep, and consequently, a bunion there, so anything that comes across the top of my foot is usually painful. My third toe is as long as my second instead of being tapered, so I have to be careful that the toe box is built to accommodate that. I have to have good support due to Morton's neuroma in one foot and plantar fasciitis in the other (if Zappos sold new feet, I would buy them). All that said, none of the other shoes in this style that I've tried came close to fitting my crazy feet. This model nearly fit but the heel slipped and the stretchy elastic upper came up just a little too high. I normally wear a 9 or 9.5 and tried both a 9 and a 10 in this shoe - the 10 was way too big and the 9 was just right except for the aforementioned problems. If it had fit, I know it would have been my go to shoe - the stretch upper is incredibly comfortable, plenty of room in the toe box, great supportive insole, and I love the look of the shoe. Plus, it made my foot look a little smaller. I'm so sad to return this shoe - along with several others I tried that also failed. So grateful to Zappos for letting me try so many pairs of shoes in search of just the right ones. I'm still trying.

Hi! Great fit and a sigh of relief. Just tried on 6 pair of shoes. These are perfect for me - feet are a half size different; my feet are really wide (new balance 4E wide); have a bunion on left foot; had a lot of corrective surgery on right foot leaving me with messed up toes and a thick forefoot. These shoes fit both feet well which is really rare. I tried the fitflop lizard ballerina (had no give in bunion area); tried arcopedico (top of shoe was like sweater material and stretched every which way to to everything but the inside sole was too narrow). Toms Avalon was the prettiest ( but had to go up a size to accommodate wide and still wasn't wide enough / was therefore too long). Hope this helps!

Love love these shoes! Super comfortable and light. Doesn’t even feel like you have them on as the fabric is super soft. I liked them so much I showed my daughter who also bought a pair. I wear a solid 10 and these fit perfectly. I might have to get more colors in these shoes. My sister says they look like swim shoes lol, but I’ve gotten many compliments on them for their modern design. If the top of your foot hurts or you have toe issues and have to be careful with the kind of shoes you buy this might be perfect. Highly recommend and my fav shoes right now.

Awesome. I have terrible feet. Fairly wide with moderate to severe bunions. These are amazing comfortable since they stretch. They were even tolerable during an international flight when my feet swelled up.

I love these shoes! I ordered them twice hoping somehow I could make the heel stop slipping with each step. I wear size 7.5-8.5 depending on style and brand, and I needed 7.5 in this shoe. In New Balance walking shoes I wear 8.5 WW, but 7.5 M fit best in this shoe. I think the M will work for people with M-W feet, because of the stretchy material. My feet swell a lot due to a medication I'll have to take for at least a year, so this knit shoe would be a great help. It has nice cushioning and arch support. Finding the right shoe is much harder now and the heels slip on almost every shoe I've tried. If this isn't a problem for you and the description of the shoe sounds good, try it and see if it works for you. Zappos makes returns or exchanges easy.

My podiatrist had me get on Zappos and buy some "Fitflops" because I have two partially torn achilles, so I did. These shoes are the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn. Too bad I can't wear them to work. Wish they came in more colors.

I loved these shoes and found them to be incredibly stylish and comfortable, but you may notice that I wrote that I loved them, past tense! Well, there is a problem with them. Not to be revolting, but if you do not wear some kind of sock with these shoes they will quickly become a cesspool of stinkyness! I really should have tried washing them in the machine, but instead I couldn't take it anymore and I gave them to the thrift store.

This is my second pair of FitFlop Uberknit Ballerina shoes - the first pair I wore out from constant use. I run a home-based business and am running around indoors most of the time, up and down stairs on hardwood floors - these shoes are very comfortable - an ideal house shoe. I prefer these shoes versus slippers for their great sole and support.

My feet are between a M and a W width. These shoes are just right! My foot doesn't feel pinched, but not sloppy, either. The stretch uppers are very, very comfortable and breathable. I bought the black with white soles. I've gotten lots of compliments. The only problem is trying to keep the white sides clean. Whenever I wear them I have to wipe the edges of the sole with a sponge at the end of the day. If not I lose that crisp white look that I love.

This is THE best shoe for my feet! I am a fan of Fitflop brand but this shoe is by far the most comfortable I have ever bought from them. I have foot issues including a large bunion on one foot and a deformed toe from an over-corrected bunionectomy. Dang podiatrist ruined my toe. So hard to find a shoe to fit, supportive but has some style. Look no further! This shoe was all that and more. I have gotten tons of compliments from many women who tell me of their foot issues. I bought 8.5 and 9 to try. 9 is my usual size but sometimes wear 8.5 in Fitflop. These are true 9. Ordering more now! Need spares for the future. Oh, and they make my wide forefoot look normal!

I love these shoes! I usually wear a 9W or 9.5 M, but in this shoe I got my regular size 9 in M and they fit perfectly. They are oh so comfortable right out of the box. The platform is nice and not too high. I wanted the platform so I could reach the ground on my scooter (lol). The material is great for me because it's stretchy and I have weird bumpy toes. More colors would be nice. Very,very happy with this purchase!

This shoe is so cute! The only improvement that would be nice would be a black sole. I love the knit fabric and the style. Unfortunately they felt a little short. My usual size 7 W foot was all the way to the toe. I am returning them to get a 1/2 size larger. I have a terrible time finding comfortable shoes since I broke my foot years ago. The firm sole of Fitflops help with my plantar fasciitis and are good support for my fairly flat feet. This will be the first non- Flip Flop style I have ordered. I can't wait to get them. Unfortunately flip flops don't work well in cold weather!

I'm a great fan of FitFlop and have lots of sandals and some slippers, but the closed in shoes don't work for me. My normal size is 81/2 N in a closed in shoe, but I can wear an 8 in FitFlop sandals. These shoes are extremely wide and too short. Just not the shoe for me and had to return them. Thanks to Zappos for great customer service.

Had to exchange for a half size smaller. The 8.5 felt true to size but when walking the heals would slip out of the shoes. Perfect style to ware with shorts or leggins. Quality and comfort are great. It was worth going through the exchange process. Zappos makes it so easy and convenient!

These shoes didn't work for me but I can totally see how people love them. They felt a bit short (not much) but they were just too wide for me - I'm typically a B width. They are really cute and the sole is very "squishy" for comfort. I wish they had worked!

I already had - and loved - the blue pair, so I ordered these in the blush pink. It's a very, very soft pink color, hardly a "neon" as described. They fit like slippers, and have great Fit Flop support, which relieves my back pain. Love 'em!

The shoe fit i but t was not comfortable because the fabric rubbed against my heels. The first time I tried them on I walked on carpet and they sort of felt okay. The second time I tried them on I walked on my wood floors. The right bottom heel area kept making a clicking sound on the floor : like a castanet. Overall they are very attractive, simple and a great shoe to wear with anything. So disappointed that they hurt my feet.

I just received these and haven't worn them yet but they are exactly what I was looking for. Lightweight but still better than a sandal when the weather gets a little cooler. Can wear either without socks or even a light pair of footies. I ordered 3 different styles, loved them all, especially the F-sporty uberknit, but this one fit the best. The heel on both of the others slipped too much which is too bad. Hope they come up with some other colors.

The elastic band hits at a painful point on top of my feet, and considering the shoes seemed wide I was surprised by thiis. The half size smaller was too short in the last so these shoes just didn't work for me.
