"I go to a lot of expense and trouble to avoid patronizing Amazon, owned by a billionaire whose politics I deplore and who coerces and rips off small businesses. I was extremely disappointed when my order, with no input from me, was fulfilled by Amazon."
"These look great but I can't keep them on. They are wide and because of the cut don't work. The regular Tom's canvas shoes are wide but I can wear them. People with fairly narrow feet need to avoid this style."
"The ballet flats are the most comfortable Tom’s shoes I have worn yet. They are better than my sneakers and make me look dressed up in the most casual outfits."
"These shoes are very cute but also uncomfortable. The fabric is very stiff and thick and not comfortable. I will definitely have to work on breaking them in. Not sure if washing would help but I am considering trying it."
"I never bought Tom’s before as I found them so uncomfortable. Then I purchased a pair of boots, they were sooo comfy! My favorite everyday boots. So then I decided on these, as the return policy was great, I cannot believe how AMAZING & comfortable these shoes are! Not only that, I got the leopard print and they are very stylish! Thank you Tom’s!"
"I gave this shoe a 2 for style. Otherwise, I cannot wear this shoe. The heel is way too big so it slips off my foot. I wish that manufacturers made their shoes to fit better."
"I normally wear a size 10, but I’ve bought 9. 5 in Tom’s before. Then I bought these navy shoes and (9. 5) and they are loose. I really don’t think I could fit my foot into a size 9. I’m a little disappointed. I do like Toms product and I will keep these shoes, I just wish that the sizing was more consistent."
"I had read the reviews and with someone who has big wide feet and I should have gotten the proper size for myself. Little narrow at the toes"
"Out of the 50 or so pairs I own, they all fit well except for this pair. Sadly, they are too wide and a bit too long. I have ordered the same size for all of them. I slipped on my brand new shoes and couldn’t keep them on. I don’t like to send things back, so will try insoles. Maybe they will help. Disappointed this time. Not a bad score. 1 out of 50 ish."
"These slipped on beautifully and easily. I like the more dainty style!"
