Softstar Shoes Reviews

The shoes feel good on my feet, honestly. But for what you get, the price feels a bit high to me. Not bad they are, just not the best value really

I really wanted to like these, but for everyday walks they just didn’t quite work for me. You can feel pretty much every little rock and crack in the sidewalk, and my feet started feeling tired sooner than I expected. I’m sure they’re probably great for people who are already into that barefoot-style feel, but I don’t think they’re the right fit for me. Shipping was totally fine though.

These shoes felt comfortable when I was just walking around, so I had some hope for them. Then I tried running in them, and, well, that hope disappeared quickly. The grip wasn’t great, the support felt lacking, and my feet got sore way faster than they should have. They’re probably fine if you’re just strolling, but I wouldn’t count on them for an actual run.

These shoes do feel really well made, and I wanted to like them more because the quality is definitely there. The toe box is just a bit wider than I expected for my feet. I do like having some room, especially if I’m wearing them for a while, but this felt like a little too much space, if that makes sense. I kept thinking maybe my socks were too thin or maybe I just have narrower toes than I realized. They’re still wearable, just not quite the perfect fit for me. I could see them being great for someone who needs more room in the front.

I was hoping these would be comfy barefoot-style shoes, but they ended up being hit or miss, mostly a miss for me. The soles don’t flex much at all, so walking in them felt clunky instead of natural. My feet got tired way faster than I expected. For the price, I really thought they’d have better flexibility. I wouldn’t buy them again.

I ordered these shoes because I really liked the color shown on the website, but when they arrived, they looked totally different in person. It wasn’t just a slight shade difference, it felt like a completely different color. For the price, that’s frustrating, and I definitely wouldn’t have bought them if the photos had been accurate. I’m hoping the company can make this right somehow, because this wasn’t what I expected to receive

At first the shoes felt stiff, like really stiff, and I wasn’t sure if I’d like them. But after wearing them for a few days, they started to break in nicely. Now they’re comfy, comfy enough that I’m glad I stuck with them. Just takes a little patience

It got here faster than I expected, i can’t really complain. I mainly just needed it to show up on time and work without any hassle, so for what I was looking for, it did exactly what it was supposed to do. No real issues on my end

I got my shoes from softstarshoes, and so far the traction has been solid. I walk on wet pavement a lot and, at least so far, I haven’t slipped. Maybe I’m being a little picky, but I do kind of wish the soles had a bit more grip on loose gravel. Overall though, I’m happy with them.

I ended up having to exchange these for a bigger size. I expected the process to be a little quicker, so waiting a few days to hear back was mildly frustrating, but once they responded, they handled it without any issues. The new pair arrived fine and fits better. Not a perfect experience, but overall it was good enough.

I expected these to be much lighter based on how they’re described on the website, so I was confused when I put them on. They felt way heavier than I was expecting, and after walking around for just a little bit, I already wanted to take them off. Maybe some people don’t mind that kind of weight, but it really wasn’t comfortable for me. For the price, I’m disappointed...

I really wanted to like these shoes because they felt good right out of the box. But after just a few months, the soles were already wearing down way too fast and the stitching started coming loose on one side. Come on now, for the price, I expected them to hold up better than that. I wasn’t hiking mountains or anything, just regular walking around. disappointing, and I wouldn’t buy them again

I really wanted to love these shoes, but the quality just didn’t match the price. They’re comfy enough, so I’ll give them that, but the stitching was kinda all over the place in a few spots and one edge started lifting way sooner than I expected. For handmade shoes, I figured they’d look a lot cleaner and more polished. The finish felt a bit rushed, which was a bummer.

I really wanted to love these because they’re genuinely cute, but the soles started wearing down after just a few weeks. For the price, I feel like shoes should hold up better than that. It just doesn’t feel right to buy something that looks nice but wears out so quickly

Every time I order the same size, it fits differently, and, it gets frustrating...

I was expecting a bit more when it came to color choices and little details. Some of the options felt kind of limited and a little confusing to figure out at first — though to be fair, it wasn’t terrible once I got used to it. The shoes themselves are okay and I don’t hate them, I just thought the customizing part would be more fun than it ended up being.

It looks nice, and I’m kind of annoyed that I didn’t expect much at first. Like, why do some things look way better in person than the pictures make them seem? Anyway, the overall look is clean, stylish, and just nicer than I thought it would be.

I was disappointed that the leather started scuffing after just one week of use (and I wasn’t exactly being rough with it). I expected it to hold up a lot better, especially this soon after buying it...

I was disappointed with this order. I picked a specific size and color, but what showed up was different from what I ordered. After waiting for it to arrive, that was really annoying. Customer service also took longer than I expected, so overall I wasn’t very happy with the experience.

I had a quick question about sizing before placing my order, so I sent them a message. They got back to me the next day, which was fine for me. Their answer was clear, and at least from my experience, they weren’t pushy about getting me to buy. I can’t really speak for every situation since this was just one interaction, but it felt like decent support overall. I’m giving 4 stars only because I would’ve liked a slightly faster reply...
