Easy Spirit Women's Everything Loafer

Mistakenly thought this model would be very close or just like the 'traveltime' model I have worn for years....In my humble opinion, travel time is the best shoe for work and being on your feet all day there is on the planet. My company does not allow us to wear travel time because it doesn't have a 'full back' to it. I had to give them up for work because they are 'illegal', and bought 2 other pairs of shoes that didn't work out before I found 'Everyday Fashion' model on line...i assumed it would be just like the travel time except with a full back so they would be 'legal' for my workplace. So, I ordered 7W (CD) as usual. They look fine, but boy are they wide, not TOO wide, but wider than I expected. Also, I'm actually having to break them in toe-wise. Something I never had to do with traveltime...My toes are touching a bit too much at the top of the shoe. But they are working out just fine, and will, no doubt 'break-in'. Also the stretchy band across the arch is in perfect placement for my foot, far enough from my ankle so my foot doesn't feel 'trapped' or cut off. When you have horrible feet and have trouble standing, give Traveltime model a shot......my all-time fav. I LOVE EASY SPIRIT!!!!

So, I took a chance after reading glowing reviews and while I do NOT think they are horrible, they are just OK in my opinion. First a little back story, I am a nurse and walk a lot. I also have a condition called Plantar Fibromatosis which means little tumors grow on the bottom of my feet which can make every step insanely painful. Oddly enough sneakers and athletic shoes make it worse, wedge shaped sandals are stiff and don't bend so they hold the tendon at an angle where the tumor doesn't touch anything. However wedge sandals are not allowed in the hospital I work for.... The shoes I LOVE have been discontinued a long time ago and my final pair have reached the end of their life.So I was hoping these would work, they do not. They are a light shoe and I may use them for airport travel because they slide on/off quickly. I ordered a half size up and may be able to get insole in them to help the angle of the foot. But I really can't recommend them. Still looking for something I can wear all day with little to no pain.

I had recently purchased two pair of shoes very similar in style to the Everything shoe, from the ES outlet in Gettysburg, PA. (The outlet carries discontinued and last year's models.) They were called Easyshoe and only available in brown & black in my size so when I saw the navy in this style, for a great price, I had to have it. I think the Everything shoe is the restyled version of the Easyshoe.Just the right amount of cushion because it IS possible to go overboard with cushion and then have achy ankles when walking; it is what the Antigravity sneaker does to me if I walk for very long in them. This shoe was listed as "used" but I can't say that I see any scuffs or marks. They are the most comfortable shoe I've worn in a long time. The only thing I would change about either of these EasySpirit shoes is to make the soles all one color. I don't care for the two-toned look of the sole and would prefer more of a "shoe" look than a "sneaker" look.

I ordered these for a trip because I'll have to do a fair amount of walking. I think they'll do fine. I have been ordering size 6.5 M in Easy Spirit mules, and they always fit perfectly. These seem a tad short, altho I think they have stretched enough to work. As some reviewers have noted, they do slide a bit on the heels. I think I can remedy that by adding a strip of moleskin to the inside of the heel. I have worn them around the house for several days, and they are very comfortable and provide good support. Will update after my trip.

I bought these in a wide to accommodate my full size orthotics which seem to require something just slightly smaller than Bozo shoes. I was pleasantly surprised to find them comfortable but not too boxy and overly roomy - just right. The top band is a soft material which will not irritate the foot for those of you with high insteps - often times they have a hard seam right there which can be uncomfortable. This was a nice touch. The shoes have a good sole on them and good arch support.

The size 7 is good, but the heels are a bit too wide and my heels kept slipping up and down. Very strange to have a narrow width and yet not a narrow heel. I put in my orthotics and they now fit and the heel is snug enough. I love Easy Spirit shoes and it's impossible to find narrow widths in stores. The color is great along with the soles. Glad I had the orthotics and can wear them.

Very comfortable shoes. I bought a half size smaller because of previous comments but wish I had gone a full size smaller. These do run a bit large. The left shoe, for some reason, is a bit larger than the right. I will make them do for my upcoming trip by wearing socks and inserts, but next purchase of these shoes (they ARE comfortable), I'll get a full size smaller.

I usually have to wear a half size up b/c my feet are somewhat wide. My actual foot size is 7.5. I usually buy an 8 to make sure that the shoe is not too tight. If you also have to wear wides shoes, don't bother going up a 1/2 size. These are wide enough to get your actual size. I wish that I purchased mine in size 7.5 instead of size eight.

Comfy fit, though on the small side of sizing. Light but supportive for walking.
