Travelport26 Women's Slip On

I have bought Easy Spirit Traveltime and Travelport slip-ons for literally years. They come in so many nice-looking colors, materials, and patterns that I've bought them for all but the dressiest occasions. As I've gotten older, I seldom bother with evening gowns and the like, so my shoe "wardrobe" is almost exclusively from East Spirit. I even buy slightly wider or go up half a size when wearing bulkier socks, and go down when wearing thin Buster Brown plain cotton socks. Because I've found that the shoes are forgiving in terms of support/insole fit so that going up or down a bit doesn't affect comfort, I decided to do a experiment. My husband normally wears a size 9.5 W rather than his old size 9 Regular to accommodate his preference for loosely woven diabetic socks. (No, no foot or leg problems, he just likes the feel. He's been wearing slip-on shoes for some years now. One hip got damaged, possibly from too many judo falls, and his hip had to be replaced.) The rule of thumb is that men's shoes run 1.5 sizes larger than women' and figured out the size conversion, remembering that men's shoes are generally wider; for example, a D compared with a B-to-C in regular women's shoes. In my case, I usually wear an 8.5C, as I need a bit of extra room across the toes, but not at the heel, so I generally order 8.5 W in Easy Spirit and ignore the too large heel (best option in the summertime) when wearing the same brand of socks my husband wears, which are soft but slightly bulky. The alternative is to go up to a 9 medium or order the 8.5M and wear thin Buster Brown socks. In that case, I'd stretch the toe area a bit before wearing that size for any length of time. As I've indicated, the shoes are "forgiving", and as my size range is fairly popular, I'm flexible on choosing a size. As a result of my own experiences with the shoes over many years, I ordered size 11WW of the Travelport19 in the dark blue with tan trim for him. He couldn't find a decent men's boat-style shoe that wasn't either too hot and heavy or shoddily made. Happy to report that the experiment was a success! He likes the way they look, they feel great, when wearing his favorite socks his feet still have room, and he hasn't had to break the shoes in. He generally wears blue jeans or khakis, and he has to pack lightly for an upcoming trip, so these shoes should be just what he needs. One more note: These shoes wear surprisingly well and seem durable, but I rotate my choices throughout each season to give my favorites a rest, allowing them to air out. I always wear some kind of sock, which keeps the shoes cleaner on the inside, plus I gently spot clean the outside as well as the soles as needed. I've never had to put them through a washing machine, although I understand that is possible. When I discover that a particular pair just doesn't get worn often enough to justify keeping it because of wardrobe updates or personal preferences, I donate it to AMVETS or a similar organization such as Purple Heart, as my husband is retired military.

Very nice😃

Excellent shoe! Comfortable and easy to walk longer distances. Very attractive.

ONE YEAR UPDATE: Good news! They DO loosen up with wear. These have been my go-to clodhoppers since I broke them in and I've given them plenty of hard wear. They still look darn good, considering! One of the best show purchased I've ever made!-------These are nice, light, slip on shoes with decent support, which is what I was looking for. However, I ordered the size 9, and while I normally take a size eight and a half, these shoes BARELY fit. There's literally no room for a thick sock in these shoes. I recommend that people go larger when purchasing them. Also, the color of the shoes I purchased is listed as green but it's actually more of a brown. The color is as it appears on my monitor, a sort of woodsy brown, and I'm pleased that they aren't green looking. I took a chance and that paid off. Time will tell how well these wear, but so far, so good--they're comfortable (if not at all roomy--maybe they'll loosen up a bit with wear) and they do what I wanted--give me a pair of shoes I can slide on without a lot of fuss for those times when I'm in a hurry.

I love these shoes(mules). I have 2 other pairs in other colors. They are comfortable, have good arch support and are super light. I like that they have a bit of lift in the heel. You can wear them with anything. They are worth the money.

These slide on shoes are so well made and comfortable. I have the extra wide size, great fit with or without a sock. The shoe footbed is so comfortable barefoot, and no rubbing on the sides or top of the feet by any seams inside. I did not have to break them in to wear them all day, which is just so helpful. The sole is thick and cushioned, but sturdy (helpful to your knees). They have good traction on all flooring and they are relatively quick to dry when the material has gotten wet from being outdoors in the yard. I would love more color options in this specific style from Easy Spirit.

It takes me many tries to find a shoe that fits right. I can comfortably wear these shoes in a wide size that accommodates my problem toes. I really think they feel and look great. I will order again when I need them! A great value for the money. I have paid a high price for other brand name shoes and they still not fit this good!

These run small. They are very comfortable but the decorative roping has already started to fray. Can’t really wear them out now.
