Customer Reviews Easy Spirit AP1

Adequate - not for me

i ordered narrow but was to narrow

This is a very good looking shoe. Has great support. It is narrow in the toe box but was wide in the heel for me. I am returning.

I bought the Easy Spirit AP1 at the same time as another style, Motion. The AP1 is far superior as it is fully lined and quite comfortable. Easy Spirit is one of the few brands that carries my size (9 1/2 Wide) and offers leather shoes at reasonable prices. I did find that they are a little short in height on my feet, making it difficult to tie the shoes tightly enough as the laces don't come up very high. Other than that, they are a good buy.

This shoe was my favorite in the past but lately it feel more narrow than an extra wide which is a big problem for me. I use a shoe stretcher to make it wider

Could not wear. Although perfect in length and width at the front, way too wide in the heel, even with socks.

Comfortable and just a little hot, but that should go away. I have worn these for years, and my only issue is that they are sticky at first and since I sometimes don’t lift my right foot as much as I should I have to remind myself to walk heel toe and not shuffle. The old AP1 pair I have been wearing are nice and smooth on the bottom, and they don’t get caught on the tile and carpet when I walk, so II suppose this new pair will get smooth if I walk outside in them. These are really nice shoes, but sometimes I wish the toes weren’t quite so pointy. These have been around for a long time, though, so maybe it’s best not to mess with success.

I think that I need a size 5.5 but can't locate the directions for exchanging them.

Great shoe, except they were to long; I reordered them in a half size smaller and they're still a bit long, but will be okay to wear.

Shoes are comfortable with no arch support and feel a little longer than a regular size 8W. With full socks on, the heel slippage is not noticeable.

I have a narrow foot and these gapped on me. Also they only have a thin amount of padding in the sole...not enough for my morton's neuroma.

These shoes are for my mother who had polio and wears two different size shoes. They are the only shoes she wears. Had to find a moderately price shoe that would hold up since we have to buy 2 pairs. They almost lasted her a year. Love to be able to get price break but that is how it goes. 2nd purchase for these shoes.

I have ordered these shoes before. Always a good fit. Unfortunately, the shoes in the 10 W box were actually marked 10M. Didn"t even have to try on. Sent back for wide size.

Shoe is a little stiff, but I’m sure it will soften with wear. Perfect shoe for colder weather when I want something more sturdy on ice.

This shoe was lightweight, flexible, and can take a thin orthotic to add more arch support. The style is suitable when you want a laced sneaker that doesn't look as clunky as a walking or cross-training shoe.

looks good. Fits well except that the heel slides up and down even with sox or my orthotics.

Although shoes fitted okay,9B,back slipped up and down. I inserted a thin front inner sole & still slipped. Leather did crease on front of shoe.

Currently wearing these shoes (size 10 in black) walking around Juneau, Alaska. They look presentable enough to be welcome in a restaurant, yet comfortable for a lot of walking on streets, docks, and gravel trails. I slipped-out the padded liners in the shoes and slipped-in my own arch supports for more comfort walking. Other than that, it's a really good shoe.

Bought these for cruise since had plantar fascia problem and was concerned about walking in dire pain. With a little help from OTC meds and these really comfortable shoes, I was fine!

I have a wide foot and Easy Spirit usually runs wider than other brands. Not so with this style. After wearing for a day, they stretched a little and are very comfortable.

I own several pairs of Easy Spirit AP1's, and find them exceedingly comfortable. But I notice that their availability in my size (11 AA) is becoming infrequent, and I dread the day when there will be nothing available.

This is a comfortable walk around town, shopping shoe. I walked all over Germany in the shoe, and wished more support for heavy duty walking, but it is a nice alternative look to a gym shoe.

Very comfortable, looks good enough for business use, could use more arch.

My feet are wide...very wide. I bought these in a 2E even though wear a 3E, but they don't come in that size. I used a shoe stretcher and it worked great. I needed a lightweight looking sneaker. I really hate the chunky, athletic looking shoes that are popular in today's market. Heaven forbid I should walk further than from my house to my car or up and down store aisles. However, the shoes are comfortable and supportive enough to do some major walking...just not going to happen on this old lady's feet.
