Customer Reviews SAS Step Out

I sought a shoe to help me relieve pain from heel spurs and plantar facetious. My local shoe vendor told me these shoes were the best, so even though I didn't love the style, I agreed to try them on. The moment - and I mean the literal moment - I put these on and stood up nearly every ounce of pain I felt in my feet left. Seriously. My heels and arches were immediately better. I couldn't believe it. I bought them on the spot. What they lack in style (for me) they more than make up for in comfort, and the style isn't all that bad, just not my typical choice. I have pain all the time with my old shoes. I'd grimace and grunt as I stood up and hobbled around. But with these, nearly no pain whatsoever. I believe that as I wear them more I will experience less pain. Totally worth the cost.

This is the most attractive SAS shoe I have tried. The contrasting sparkly textured leather makes this shoe more playful and less heavy. The wide size is truly wide and the footbed is comfortable. I dislike the rocker sole which is unstable. While standing still, neither my toe nor my heel touches the ground. The narrow strap cuts into the top of my foot and the toebox presses into my toenails. I fit SAS sandals but not their shoes.

The shoe appears to be well made and supportive, but the sizing is off. I normally wear a 9.5W in a mary jane style shoe - purchased the 10W and it was too small, but had a lot of heel slippage. I had to return. Thank you Zappos for free shipping both ways!

I'm so frustrated with this shoe. It's marked as narrow and fits in the toe box, but the heel slips completely off when I move my foot. I've had this problem with every other SAS shoe except for the Sunny, which fits perfectly. I'm a 10N

This is the most fun shoe ever! It is so cute, and fits so well, and I can wear my custom orthotics with this shoe, as it is plenty deep enough. It became my favorite shoe after one wearing! No breaking in, and the Velcro strap is so convenient. I have the black with the sparkly edge...fun, especially when you have colorful socks. I tried the black first, now I want the brown. Wish they would make them in Navy Blue and red. That would be GREAT!

This shoe is cut very low above the toes. As soon as I put them on it the bone and minor bunion on my right foot. I took two steps and had to take the shoes off due to the pain. I love SAS shoes, but this one is not for me. I am returning them.

These have become my daily shoes. With various foot problems,and lots of shoes in my closet unable to wear, these are soo comfortable and provide support and cushioning

They were nice shoes, but my feet did not stay in them

After a broken foot was healed, I was asked by my doctor to wear "sturdy" shoes; this SAS shoe fit the bill!

These shoes are nice and flat and extremely comfortable. They are cute enough, but not gorgeous (I go for comfort). For a while, they were the only shoes I could wear when my knee was bothering me. I love the fact that they are made in the USA!

I have several pairs of SAS, but the heel was uncomfortable (kind of a rocker type--maybe good for walking). For that reason I'm sending them back.

I love so many of these SAS shoes, but they are supposed to be more accommodating for arthritis, diabetes, etc. I tried about 8 different styles, in 2-3 sizes, widths, for each style, and NOT A SINGLE PAIR HAD A HIGH/WIDE ENOUGH TOE BOX. I ended up keeping one pair, simply because I thought they were going to work (they are this style, but in a different color). After wearing them for 5-6 hours, my big toe was throbbing for the rest of the day...so disappointing.

Felt good but a little heavy so I went with another choice.

Comfortable USA made shoe with a little bling for my problem feet, YAY. The strap isn’t very long, so I’m not sure how long it’ll hold up with the Velcro. BUT, I can slip my own orthotics in to support both metatarsals and arches. From the most part this shoe is a 5 star. The strap shortness rates 2stars for this high instep gal. Worth the money, every penny.

I got this for my mother in law, and she loved them. I got her regular size and one smaller as I was told they run large, and she kept the smaller size. No break in needed and she was ver happy. Not the best looking shoes, but acceptable style. They reminded me of the shoes I used to wear for catholic school. I wish Zappos would carry the brown ones.

The decorative contrast is a lovely change. Unfortunately, wide shoes are often plain. I wear an 8ww and they felt well. Although well cushioned when I changed out the footbed with a Vionic orthotic it smashed my toes too far forward so I will stick with the SAS footbed. But consider ordering a half size up if you wear an orthotic. Generally comfortable, however the low vamp on the right shoe does press into the top of my foot after a time. I hoping as shoe softens this will lessen as it is only on one foot.

I had high hopes for these Mary Jane but reluctantly must return them. Loved the style and the comfort of the inner sole when just standing. But when walking my the heel slipped. The foot bed just did not seem deep enough. Also the strap was barely long enough and felt tight when I wore socks with these shoes. I wear an 8N. These felt true to size which is rare for me but the slipping of the heel was a deal breaker.

This shoe was very heavy in weight. For the price I assumed this shoe would be comparable to Ecco, Josef Seidel, Rieker, etc. I returned the shoe because of the weight.
