DANSKO
I loved my Dansko's from the moment I put them on, but I put them through the ultimate test a couple of years ago when I wore them around Disney World. I just thought that I would pack them and think about wearing them, I was not sure if I would. Then I thought, "well I wear them shopping and I've never had sore or tired feet after that so why not". I did wear them all day chasing middle school kids around till the park closed. Boy, was I tired, but my feet felt great and I have told many people that when they ask me if I liked them. If they can not make my feet hurt or tired feeling after a day at Disney then they are a good pair of shoes in my opinion.

As a college professor, I stand several hours a day and walk all over campus. I have "collected" (as my four-year-old sons says) six pairs of Danskos because they're the only shoes I teach in now. Most of my other shoes feel like they have bricks for soles. Thanks for making shoes that are both comfortable and stylish.

I bought my first pair of Dansko clogs in 1996 during nursing school. I started to wear Dansko shoes for casual wear the following year. My first brown clogs were worn down traveling Provence and all over Italy. Dansko shoes are a must for traveling it's my most dependable pair for comfort. I lived on clogs during my 2 pregnancies. This year, I have 8 pairs of Dansko shoes- clogs, closed clogs, and sandals! As a nurse anesthetist, I am on my feet 45-50 hours a week. My clogs make my feet feel like I'm walking on clouds at work...after work, I slip into my casual pair to relax! Everywhere I go there's always someone interested in my shoes. I constantly boast about my Dansko shoes to both my co-workers and patients who admire them.

MERRELL
Bandelier National Monument is a beautiful place with varying volcanic landscapes. Being a geology student I've spent a lot of time in the field. And during my summer internship I spent a lot of time hiking around Bandelier. My Eagle 3's held up throughout the season and felt like a pair of basketball shoes. These were my first pair of Merrell shoes but I will definitely invest in more soon.

My mom generously gave me a trip to Paris for my birthday. Due to work constraints, I went alone and only had 4 full days to explore. I was on the move constantly, climbing the Eiffel Tower, the Arc De Triumph, Notre Dame and Isle de St Louis, the Louvre, Rodin museum, and much, much more - all in cold, wet weather. I wore my Merrell Jungle Mocs the entire time and I never would have been able to cover so much ground without them. I will never go on another trip without my Merrells.

I hadn't had my Merrell Chameleons very long when my friend and I decided to go camping in Virgin Falls Pocket Wilderness, outside of Sparta, TN one weekend to take a break from college. We had never been there and didn't quite know what to expect. The area was beautiful--filled with gorgeous waterfalls and boulder filled streams, the Merrells kept my feet incredibly comfortable and dry even through all the streams we crossed. Everything was going great until the second night on the trail. We were in our tent sleeping, when we were both suddenly awakened by the sound of a growling kitty right outside our tent...we thought this cougar wanted us for dinner and my first thought was of my Merrells at the end of our tent. We soon found out the cat was after something smaller near by and he left us alone, thankfully. My shoes were safe.

I bought a pair of Merrell's as a last minute decision before I left for London. I have tried all sorts of inserts, gel pads, tennis shoes - and for the miles and miles and hours that I was on my feet - they never hurt. Nothing - not even a pinch on the toe. I have never worn more comfortable shoes. I've already convinced 3 more people to buy some.

Hoosier National Forest, Yellowwood State Park, Indiana I purchased my first pair of Merrells on my honeymoon, and wore them hiking on the same day. They are hands down the most comfortable shoe for any occasion, hiking, convention walking, working...right out of the box the fit and feel was fantastic.

Merrell was recommended to me by a friend for my overland trip across SE Asia 2 years ago -Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Malaysia, Singapore, Indonesia and Australia. Despite walking hundreds of miles over every kind of terrain you can imagine - tarmac to unsealed roads, through tropical jungle, desert, crossing rivers, volcanic craters, scrabbling rock country etc my Chameleons were always comfortable, sure footed and to my amazement whiff free! The Chameleon Ventilators even lent themselves to nights out boogying and regular games of footy!

BIRKENSTOCK
My sister Mary was born with bilateral clubfeet, and after years of corrective surgery she was finally able to wear a normal pair of shoes. But even though she was able, shoes still tended to kill her. She needs good support, and when she wears shoes even known for their support, she often cried because her feet hurt so much.

When she was about seven years old, my father bought her first pair of Birkenstocks. They were colorful sandals that she just fell in love with -- she even wore them to bed. After just a few days of wearing them, Mary said her feet felt a thousand times better. Now, seven years later, my sister still wears Birkenstocks, and she says they are the only shoes that make her feet feel good. Birkenstock, you rock!

You are one of the only brands that I can find shoes in my size because my feet are so BIG, but hey, that's a different story. So thanks Birkenstock for making our day!

ECCO
I bought a pair of Ecco shoes three and a half years ago. After a three-month backpacking trip through Europe, they had kept me comfortable and dry-not easy in the Swiss Alps! I am now a tour guide, and for two years these shoes have been the only ones to pound the cobblestones for me.

EARTH
I wish all my shoes were EARTH shoes - I love these shoes! They're cute and I can feel that they are helping me with my posture. I have gotten lots of compliments on them, too.

I'm in my 60s and have never tried Earth Shoes. This is the first I bought - and it was so comfortable and good for my legs and back that I ordered another pair after wearing these one day. They fit me very well from the start, though my feet are somewhat narrow (A to AA). They are very attractive, and I can feel the difference Earth have made in the muscles of my legs and lower back - much firmer and stronger and I have much more energy. I haven't worn anything else since the first pair came, and have just ordered my third pair!

I fell in love with the Athena when I saw it. After learning about the negative heel technology I had to try them out. I am a licensed massage therapist and have learned through classes how to stand correctly these shoes make it so you don't have to think about it, your body automatically aligns itself once you slip on the shoe. Definitely worth the money, I can't wait to wear them all summer.

I love these shoes. They are extremely comfortable. I have neck and spine problems. Walking is much less painful. I wear them all of the time and am planning on ordering more Earth shoes. To top it off, they look great too.

ACORN
It has been four wonderful months since my new bride bought my Acorn slippers on our honeymoon. Wonderful, that is, because both my heart and my feet have never been so warm and cozy. You see, your slippers were my wife's wedding gift to me. And what a gift they are! Never in my life have my feet been so close to heaven!
- SN from Marietta, Georgia
 
 
One Christmas, my father received a pair of slippers as a gift from my mother. That night, being the ornery son I was, I claimed them as my own and have not let my father wear them once since then. They have been camping, hiking and backpacking in Colorado, New Mexico and Texas. They have been to England, France, Germany and Wales. I value these slippers so much that when I travel, I pack them in my carry-on because I can bear to be without a change of clothes for several days in a row, but can't bear being ACORN-less for one night in a cold hotel.

For Christmas I was given a pair of Acorn Sheepskin Slippers. I dearly love these slippers and wear them every single day. I have never received a better gift.
- DM from Glendale, California
 
 
We love your product! My husband and I originally bought Acorn slipper socks as Christmas presents to ourselves. I literally wore mine out. I then stole my husband's. They too have worn out. After several months of searching, I've finally found replacement Ragg Wool Slipper Socks! Thank you for making such a quality product.

THORLO
Your socks are the best! I have arthritis and wear a long brace on my left leg; Thorlos are the only socks I've found that are comfortable enough to let me stand for long periods of time. I'll be buying them for the rest of my life!
- Jesse I., Chicago IL
 
 
These are simply the best socks that I have ever used for hiking. They kept my feet free from fatigue and handled my perspiration. After many kilometers they continued to protect my feet. I heartily recommend this product.

I don't usually write a company about a product, but... My husband is active duty military, and returned from the Gulf a few months ago. We were shopping to replace his under garments he wears with his cammies when we ran across you "Combat Boot Thorlos." We normally don't spend that much on a pair of socks, but he wanted to try them. He is so happy with the comfort that he wants more, so he said he is going to buy 1 - 2 pair every pay day till he has several pairs. He wished he would have had them before being deployed to Iraq, but will be prepared this time in case he is redeployed. I noticed you have a large variety of socks and I have pain in my feet and walk 3 tp 5 miles a day, so I will be purchasing some for myself. Thank you!
