Do you really love your Tieks?
I’ll just cut to the chase and answer your biggest question (in case it isn’t already apparent). I’m a budget-conscious repeat customer that keeps returning to drop upwards of $150 on a pair of shoes.
How Tieks Fit and Feel
I am going to start off by saying that this is a loaded question. My Lovestruck pair is the most comfortable pair of shoes in my closet. I can (and have) worn those shoes all day long and if I know I’m going to be on my feet for an extended period, they are my go-to pair of shoes.
Sizing Tieks
Tieks don’t come in half sizes, so people often ask if they should size up or size down if they typically wear a half size. The FAQ page of the Tieks website says you can go either way, but they recommend that people with wide feet size up. I typically wear an 8.5 and I always size up to a 9.
Wearing Tieks
I know this is a big question for a lot of people. And the question of “Do Tieks make your feet smell? ” is of equal importance to people who worry about these things.
Styling Tieks
I have always worn my Tieks barefoot and the most significant issue I’ve had is darker coloring of the leather insole from so much wear. Tieks don’t cause blisters, so there isn’t a need for socks to be worn for personal comfort.
Purchasing Tieks
Tieks are not available in stores and can only be purchased online. I know how intimidating it can be to take the leap and purchase such an expensive pair of shoes online without trying them on first. I had a hard time with that too. The good news is that Tieks offers free shipping and free returns on all orders.

3 pro tips from a Tieks owner
The classic leather Tieks are easier to break in than the patent or faux snakeskin varieties. So if you want that comfortable-as-butter feeling sooner rather than later, shop the “Classics” section in the Boutiek.
