Cracked soles after 1 year.
Reviewed in the United States on November 6, 2015
Two pairs in two years, both same results after 1 year, they both cracked in half on the bottom. I wear these to work where I sit at a computer all day. They do not last at all.
They are both comfortable and supportive

I am on my fourth pair of these Born clog style shoes. I am a surgeon and I wear them every single day to work. They are both comfortable and supportive. Yes, the soles do crack in half, but I get about 18 months out of each pair before they crack. I find these shoes MUCH more comfortable than Danskos (which give me blisters on the TOP of my feet where the shoes rub due to me having high arches). When I find a good price on these Born shoes, I simply buy 2 or 3 pairs and when they crack, I toss the old ones. I have come to accept it, but I still find the shoes a good value since I wear them everyday.
Still going strong after 3 years

I've had mine for over 3 years and unlike a lot of reviewers have never had a cracked sole. I've worn them daily for years so I wonder if the quality changed. I bought two pairs at once in 2013 and still have a brand new un-opened pair. The only thing that happened recently with my first pair is that the stitching on the side of one shoe has come slightly loose but it's not very noticeable. That's not too unexpected after 3 years of heavy use. I do use them only for walking, dancing or sitting. I don't do chores or other activities when wearing them that might cause the sole to flex so that may be the secret to their longevity.These are the most comfortable work shoes I've found since my bunion surgery. They are wide in front and don't press on the scar tissue. I'd buy them again. I would recommend going up half a size if wearing thick socks. I can wear thin socks or tights with them but nothing else.
The most comfortable!!!!

I just love these shoes. As a nurse, didn't want to spend the money on Danskos, which I found to be incredibly uncomfortable anyway. These are amazing. No lie. I have seen reviews that they will split or rip after a few months, but have had no problems at all in about a year. I actually love them so much, I'm tempted to order a back up pair, because I'm afraid they will stop making them.
These shoes are so cute!!!!

These shoes are so cute.And came in a WIDE width. The heel is sturdy and high enough to keep me from stepping on my own scrubs and out of whatâs on the floor. The tooled detail is well defined and the faux leather is perfectly impervious to fluids. The tread is great and keeps me firmly rooted and free of slipping in said fluids. I wore them for 4 shifts and got tons of compliments from co workers. I even recommended them. This brand has a great workwear reputation. They felt a little tight over the band on the tops of of the shoe but I assumed they would loosen up as they broke in. Then came the wha wha wha moment during shift five. My lovely shoes began to separate from the awesome soles/heels. The stitching is separated on the inside ball. Iâm sooooooooo sad. I love these shoes and was looking forward to them being my new favs. I would definitely give them a much higher rating if they had lasted. Iâm going to contact amazon and see if I can exchange them for a new pair on the hopes this durability issue is a one off for a a really good brand.Update-The company refunded my money and I had to wait a month for them to go back down from 80$ to 50$ on Amazon before rebuying them again. I have been wearing them to work every since them. Luuuuuuve them. Go wide girls your feet will adore again.
Do Not Hold Up

I have purchased two pairs in a little over two years for work. I am a receptionist and work four days a week at a desk. The first pair split right across the sole completely in half. I thought it was a fluke and since they were comfortable I bought the second pair. Like clockwork ... within a year the exact same thing happened. As much as I loved the fit for work, I will never buy them again. Obviously there is a structural issue with these shoes.
Cute and Comfy

I had bought a pair of these in my normal size 7, but they hurt my toes, so I ordered these from Amazon in a 7.5, and they are much more comfortable. I have another pair of Born shoes where I also had to go up by half a size, so I guess I should have been warned. I normally wear a wide shoe, but these seem to be doing okay in a regular width. They may be a tad bit tight across the instep, but I think they will relax over time. In every other way, they are extremely comfortable. I especially like that, due to the platform sole, they make me appear taller, even though I am still walking on an almost flat surface. The tooled design makes them a little more interesting. Overall, a good purchase.
Looks awesome and feels awesome

I loved it, I wear a 6.5, I have two pairs that I bought from Famous Footwear, size 7.5. I get toe and ankle space. It looks expensive and definitely comfortable. I now own 5 pairs. It also helps me with height because my scrubs pants are a little long because I am petite, so it raises the hem of my pants, keeps them from dragging on the floor, so scrubs pants stay clean. Please keep the price the same, $50 per pair, I want this review to help nurses like me, so please keep the price reasonable.

I love BOC and Born clogs. They are very comfortable but where are Born is true to size the BOC are a bit short on fit. They are not long enough hence my 4 star.

I like the shoes; it's great for walking or for anyone who is on her feet for long periods of time. Next time I will order a smaller size.
