Customer Reviews
Cute and comfortable!
I have gotten nothing but complements on these shoes. Everyone wants to know where I got them. In addition to that, they are really comfortable! No need to purchase additional orthotics since they come with the Abel insole. I use the metatarsal on and it is perfect-I wear them for hours and forget I am wearing them!
Comfortable sneakers
These sneakers are extremely comfortable. I have had two bunion surgeries and a fairly recent fall which resulted in damage to my right foot and ankle. I needed a sneaker that would fit comfortably and this shoe does just that. They look good with both black dress pants and jeans, and I know that I will get a lot of use out of them. I ordered my usual size 8, and am very pleased with this purchase.
Stylish and supportive
I wore these for the first time in NYC. We walked 13 miles that day. They are ready to wear out of the box. I had seen that some had issues with the heel and I had planned ahead with band aids which was necessary. After 2 days the heel seemed broken in. The arch is stellar as I have always found with my Abeo shoes. For the intense walking we did, it lacked some cushioning but for normal day to day use these will be perfect with so many outfits. Worth the $$!!
Super cute and comfy
I was pleasantly surprised with these shoes. I love the Abeo metatarsal styles and although I often swap the insoles for the max performance, sometimes I wear them as is. With this style, I did end up swapping for the max performance which gave me more arch support (it's my favorite insole so it's hard not to swap them out). I actually found these more comfortable than the MXV Shift from Abeo that I ordered and returned. I won't be wearing these quite as often as my regular tennies but for a more style forward shoe, I was very happy with them!
Not the arch support I hoped
I bought these in khaki taupe. They are a wider shoe and I was hoping for more arch support. I’m afraid they are going back. I don’t want to take the chance on becoming more loose fitting.
