Reviewer: Travis from Kent, OH

Shoe Size: Felt a half size larger than marked
Shoe Width: Felt true to width

Very Pleased. With dress shoes I typically destroy my feet for a couple weeks. This was NOT the case with the Linden. I wore it to a conference out of the box. By the end of the first day I had a little bit of a sore on my foot, but it never became a blister. The shoes are just real comfy and require little to no break in period (though I would not recommend high levels of activity to start with). As for sizing, I ordered my size 8 1/2 and returned it for a lower size 8. However, I like my toes to go to the end of the shoe without a lot of space. So take that into consideration. Shipping was fast - Zappos is pretty fantastic.

Awesome shoe - still great after a year of heavy wear - Great fitting and looking shoe, has lasted an entire year of wearing them 2-4 times per week to work. For whatever reason I prefer these with khakis and chinos, but not with dress pants… but that's just me. Great comfort and looks, lightweight shoe that's held up very well. Still looks great and will last me another year for sure!

These are the perfect shoes for almost all occasions. My old boss recommended Born to me. It is rather tricky to find a pair in stores. I found a pair of Lindens at a Dillard's and I was in love. They only had the Charcoal colored Linden, but I wanted the Cigar. Zappos came through with a cheaper price. They aren't as dark as the picture makes it seem. They are a nice brown, toward the darker side, but not as close to the dark chocolate color I've seen in pictures. Nike's Banger shoes fit me in 13 perfectly, these fit me perfectly in 12. I would say 12 is a better estimate of my size. They are the only two shoes to ever fit me properly. I love these shoes. Everyone thinks they look amazing, dressy or casual.

Very nice. I found that the shoe initially felt tight, but after one day of wear they felt perfect. Absolutely the shortest break in ever. Very comfortable.

Born Again - Ever since I bought my first Born shoes back in 2005, I've been faithful to the brand. They are comfortable and true to size. Highly recommended!

Great Style and Fit, WOW! Born shoes are truly a wonderful fit and style. With one pair already in my closet that took the crown as most comfortable, I have been in need of a nice black shoe that I could use that looked the part for both work and semi-casual events. I suppose, to no surprise, they fit the bill and are a great shoe in both look and comfort.

Born Linden - Very comfortable!!! Not my best looking shoes, but if comfort is a priority, they win. They fit like gloves.

Born - Linden - Good shoe. Born’s tend to fit my feet exceptionally well. Very comfortable. I bought the cigar color first and ordered the nutmeg as well. Lots of room in the toe box. Moderate support. The smooth leather of the cigar color takes boot grease well and waterproofs nicely.

Not as happy as hoped - When I first put them on, they felt great. However, after wearing for just a few days, the support started to drop making the sides dig in to my ankle. The left shoe didn't settle evenly and started to impact my step.

Light, comfortable, good looking - My first pair of Born shoes, and I'm quite pleased with the quality and fit. I've already ordered another pair (different style). If the shoes hold up well--and I think they will--Born will be one of my favorite brands. Of course, Zappos service was fantastic.

Hi Zappos, I just want to say another thank you for your outstanding service. First off, you fixed my order which I had made a mistake on (accidentally put in the wrong size) in record time. Secondly, I received the shoes I ordered today - WOW - truly outstanding. And it snowed here last night so talk about timing. I will certainly be ordering from your company again. Thank you for quick service and your courteous staff. Sincerely, B W
