-G.T. of Atlanta, GA, August 2022

"Just received my shoes [Trailhead] the other day, tried them on & liked them right away. My wife tried them on also & she liked them also, knowing her, she'll be ordering a pair in the future. Would highly recommend them to anyone. THANK YOU."
-J.D. of Petrolia, PA, August 2022

"I'm a Cinematographer by profession and need to stand for at least 12-14 hours a day. I have been using them [SOMs] for a month now and cannot express how good it feels to wear a pair of your shoes. I seriously don't think I can wear another pair of shoes again. They're absolutely fantastic. I also have wide feet, so your wider toe does make it a huge difference."
-K.V., July 2022

"This order is a surprise for my husband... Thank you for double checking my size. By the way, I love LOVE LOVE my new shoes."
-J.K. of Clatskanie, OR, July 2022

"I am very happy with my shoes! I have feet that are better left unseen. I need a wide toe-box. I like to walk and my SOMs fit perfectly & are comfortable. Several people have commented on them and asked the brand. I also love that they are made in USA. Actually I was searching for shoes made in USA and found you!"
-L.B. of Cincinnati, OH, July 2022

"The Norwood Classic is my third pair since 2015 and another winner. I will remain loyal to SOM!"
-M.J., June 2022

"I have worn SOM shoes for two years and love them! I ordered these Nutrail Air shoes for my husband. He has bought a foreign made brand similar to the Nutrail Air twice in the last four years... When the SOM Nutrail Air shoes arrived, they fit perfectly! The price was comparable to his old ones. My husband is a man of few words. He said, 'They are a good shoe.' This is considered a compliment!"
-C.B., June 2022

"I love I originally bought these [Trailhead] two years ago for hiking, running, but since, have found that these SOMs excel as a mountain bike shoe. I since have gotten rid of my Five-Ten MTB shoes in favor of these for the superior tow splay and pedal feel. Yet they have enough protection so that I won't sprain my plantar fascia on the pedal or break my toes on rock strikes."
-Grace R. of New Britain, PA, June 2022

"I love that they are nearly impervious to damage, clean up really easily, and are resoleable when that time comes. In the year that I've been working in these, I would have easily worn out 3 or 4 pairs of cheap shoes.... I am really glad that I discovered SOM shoes and can't recommend them highly enough."
-S.K., May 2022

"Qualified for the state senior Olympics in free throw shooting today. Will be wearing my SOM high tops in Charleston, SC in finals."
-R.N. of Simpsonville, SC, May 2022

"The color of the shoes are fantastic and love that they have the American Flag on them. They are very comfortable and great for cross training type exercises. The team at SOM helped me with sizing issues and I can't say enough good things about the customer service."
-K.B. of Haymarket, VA, May 2022

"I didn't even know I needed a shoe like this until I wore it for a week. My feet feel 100% better. They look brand new still after a year too! They’ve also gotten more comfortable over time. I honestly don’t even need laces at this point, because they fit my foot so well."
-D.P., April 2022

-S.G. of Denver CO, March 2022

"I have narrowed feet, but these [Nutrail Air] are somehow right on the money with the fit... I don't want to take them off, even just sitting on the couch. Whatever voodoo you guys are mixing into your shoes, keep doing it, because these are awesome!"
-O.A. of Oakland Park FL, March 2022

"I've had these shoes for 4-5 month now and wear them pretty much every day (still look like new). They are extremely comfortable and my feet don't get sore anymore like they used to on long walks or standing all day."
-R.D. of Tampa FL, February 2022

"My first zero drop shoe. Chose SOM since they are made in the USA and actually look normal. Most zero drop shoes have super bright colors which isn't my thing."
-R.D. of Tampa FL, February 2022

"Great quality and service. These would stand up to hikes with sharp and jagged rocks or pretty much anything you throw at them."
-M.G. of Nashville TN, February 2022

-D.F. of Portland, OR, February 2022

"SOM keeps you stepping. I am always on the go and they are great for all activities... they look good for casual and work. I get them muddy and then toss them in the washer and boom ready to wear them to work. You have a customer for life."
-D.F. of Portland, OR, February 2022
