Ha! I've just discovered Zappos shoe videos. Answer a lot of questions... and these are not the boots for me after all... (I got a gift card and blue boots caught my eye.)

I noticed a lot of ill fitting shoes in their videos

Those are cute but the video makes them look really odd. Next!

Right? TBH, no one looks like they can walk in any of the cowboy boot videos I was looking at...

I say take the videos with a grain of salt. They obviously do not try one iota to get a good fit before they record!

I like the videos. It really helps to be able to see the shoes on someone’s foot.

I like to see the color and the shoe in motion, but the fit many times is really bad so I just overlook that aspect. But the videos are helpful.

Those boots are very fun!
I like the distressed / slightly worn look to them!

ASOS has videos too, it helps so much to see the clothes or shoes in motion for some reason.

I've seen a lot of clothing videos. Sometimes they're useful, but often I'd prefer a close up of a certain feature, and can't catch it in the video or make it out in the photos available.

"no one looks like they can walk in any of the cowboy boot videos" They don't have the swagger down? lol

I love the Zappos videos for bags. I mean, they can give me the dimensions and I can whip out a tape measure but somehow I'll still end up with a bag that's smaller or bigger than I envisioned. Seeing it against a real human body helps me so much more.

I love the videos, they really help to see the shoes on someone and "in action" and have helped me decide many times. But I also find them a bit hilarious with the way the models/sales reps (?) describe each pair. It is a sales pitch after all.

Zappos' videos for shoes are one of my main shopping tools! I have really skinny legs, so if I'm checking out a shoe at a retailer, I'll head over to Zappos to see if they also carry it and have a video. I figure that most models have skinny legs like mine, and the video helps me know whether the shoe will look OK on me. I have refrained from many a purchase due to these videos.
