I've worn Gentle Souls before and I always order a 1/2 size smaller.  I have a wide foot and these shoes are loose...

I have several tsubo shoes and they see to be hit or miss on comfort. These are a miss. They are always unique looking though and good quality. They also fit true to size. I always know if I order 5.5, it will fit like a 5.5.

Gentle Souls fit me so well, look nice and are comfortable too! Can't ask for more than that.

I fell in love with women's Indian clothing over a year ago when I came across a wonderful novel. Then my brother brought me a sari for Christmas from India. I know, probably the only white woman wearing them. but I don't care, beautiful and comfortable and easy to care for and I don't have to wear uncomfortable hosiery when I want to feel like i'm dressed nicely for church!

I've used these for years and years and have always liked the softness of the fabric.  However, the fabric of my most recent order felt almost rough.  All of the others have had an actual size (etc.) tag but these arrived with the 'tag' imprinted inside.  Makes me wonder if that process has anything to do with the change in, or lack of, softness.  (Of course I have no idea if that's even possible.) I've washed them a couple of times hoping to soften them but no luck.  Not sure what I'll do when it's time to order again.

I've worn Dickies for years. I have never been unhappy with them.

I have had two of these clothes for years.  They never seem to quit, but I wanted to put aside a spare just in case.

Easy Spirit always runs true to size. I ordered this pair in Wide instead of my usual Medium because I'm recovering from injuries that made my feet swell. Perfect, just as I knew they would be. And the other pair that I ordered in Medium will be waiting for me when my feet get back to normal.

This is such a great sandal.  It's stylish and so comfortable.  This is the first pair of Gentle Souls I was able to afford.  Now I see why people swear by this brand.  I love them.  I can wear them with just about any clothes (pants, skirts, dresses).

I read a previous review of someone disappointed with the softer, changed fabric in the blue 501's. I understand what he meant. I have several pairs of black 501's that I can wear for several days and they stay neat and crisp. These are softer and sag more quickly and do not retain the same crispness, a disappointment since I run a contracting business and appearance is important when meeting clients and prospective clients. So, I have to do my laundry more often.

I always wear Easy Spirit and love this brand.  I had a pair just like these and was happy to find the same style on Amazon and they actually carried the narrow width.

This is a reorder from 3 years ago.  I like this product and have worn it before.  Its durability is unusual.  I still use my favorite, almost worn out pair and love it as much as my old childhood "blankie".  My spine, however, appreciates the new ones.

My wardrobe is 501's. I fashion all my accoutrements around them. When I have to dress up I can use black 501's for the opera or kaki with a white shirt for the office. However I have always chosen my work environment for its fashion taste in stone washed 501's. Do not tell anyone but I take mine to the cleaners and have them dry-cleaned and pressed (no starch), just crisp and casual at the same time; it is an old habit from my military days. Come to think of it the military used button fly's also.

 I can see the problem of purchasing online vs. store bought is that they use obscure words as "rigid" in place of gage (or oz.) Not one did they mention the tab color which is Levi's way of sorting the Mercedes quality version from their Yugo (lighter weight but still from Levi) version. And yes they are subject to globalization which in this day and age is a "no no"; and there is no way to tell without looking at the label. Well enough of this negative stuff.

An advantage of on line is getting those obscure colors and exact size (saving a tad in tailoring). Also saving gasoline (sort of an expensive commodity now days) and time. Not to mention there is some sort of psychological thrill in placing and receiving the order. It is sort of a mini-Christmas.

I have ordered these before.  I always order the same style.  They are very comfortable and offer a bit of control.

be sure to always wash in cold water, or order the next size up in case you make a mistake.

These are classy but soft to wear - this is my fifth pair!
