Promising review: "These are the fifth shoes I've tried and have finally found my match. I prefer a shoe with more room in the toe box, and these are the ones.

I work in a hospital and people told me over and over again to buy some Danskos, but I was unwilling to spend the $$.

My pants were completely soaked through but these shoes kept my feet completely dry!!!! I wore them almost every day for two weeks and walked over 15k steps a day without blisters or pain.

Leading Brands Use Coveo AI to Transform their Ecommerce Product Discovery and Accelerate Revenue Growth
Caleres, FleetPride, and Freedom Furniture Leverage Coveo AI-Search to Personalize Product Discovery and Boost Conversions MONTREAL, LONDON and NEW YORK, May 22, 2025 /CNW/ - Coveo, the leader in AI-Relevance, delivering best-in-class AI-search and generative experiences that maximize business outcomes at every point-of-experience, today announced that leading business-to-consumer and business-to-business brands Caleres, FleetPride, and Freedom Furniture are leveraging its AI-RelevanceTM platform to transform online experiences, boost conversions, and unlock new growth opportunities. By delivering relevant, personalized interactions across the entire customer journey, Coveo empowers businesses to delight consumers and drive significant revenue gains. The Coveo 2025 Commerce Relevance report, a survey of 4,000 adults across the US and UK, found that 77% of shoppers research online before buying, even if they buy in-store, and 43% of those surveyed said if they have a goal in mind they head to the search bar. This represents a huge opportunity for companies to win big or lose big as, if search falls short, the report found that 72% of shoppers will leave, with 36% going straight to a competitor. Coveo equips companies with AI-search to enhance engagement through intelligent, tailored experiences that reduce friction and deepen loyalty. "Too often, online experiences are frustrating and unproductive for customers. In today's digital landscape, businesses win or lose based on the precision, speed, and intelligence of their online experience," said Peter Curran, GM of Commerce at Coveo. "Coveo is proud to partner with leading brands who are transforming their digital experiences with AI-search to deliver the relevance and personalization that their customers demand – and who have the impressive business metrics to prove that these efforts drive significant revenue growth." Caleres Steps into the Future of Ecommerce with Advanced Search and Discovery Caleres is one of the most successful shoe retailers you've never heard of. The multi-billion St. Louis-based parent of Famous Footwear, Sam Edelman, Dr-Scholls, Vince and Veronica Beard traces its history to pre-Civil War, navigating more than 140 years of business by staying one step ahead of an ever-changing industry. An early adopter of the web, Caleres witnessed the trends and growth of ecommerce take shape. A few years ago they identified that their search and discovery technology was not optimized to handle a complex catalog of more than 600,000 SKUs organized by color, size, width, and store availability. They were unable to adjust, test, or access data regarding on-site search, product listing pages, and product recommendations. Finally, they relied on thousands of manual rules that were time-consuming and difficult for merchandisers to maintain. For the evolution of their next generation ecommerce experience, they chose Coveo's AI platform to power their search and experience layer. Reported results with Coveo over measured period: 21% increase in revenue YoY 25% increase in conversion rate FleetPride Accelerates Customer Service and Drives Revenue with Enhanced Digital Presence and Data-Driven Insights In trucking, downtime is a liability costing thousands of dollars a day. Founded in 1999, FleetPride is North America's largest distributor of truck and trailer parts and service in the independent heavy duty aftermarket. FleetPride's 4000 experts across 300+ locations, 85+ service centers, and five distribution centers help customers find the products they need — as quickly as possible. But FleetPride needed to catch up with its digital presence. Its website was failing to serve its customers, who needed an exact part number to order an item online. FleetPride's siloed system of tracking inventory offline and online meant that customers often had limited visibility into stock availability or price. Adding to the problem, FleetPride's website included a sprawling inventory of over one million parts and accessories. With Coveo's artificial intelligence technology solutions and a better understanding of their customers, FleetPride was able to boost customer engagement, deflect customer cases, and create more sales opportunities through customized shopper experiences. Reported results with Coveo over measured period: 7% increase in revenue per visit for sessions 9.6% increase in conversion rate 27% increase in search engagement Freedom Furniture Reimagines Retail with Intelligent Search and Product Discovery Freedom Furniture has long been a trusted name in Australian and New Zealand homes, offering stylish, personalized pieces that cater to every taste and lifestyle. With over 60 stores and more than 40 years of excellence, the company has earned its reputation as a leader in furniture and homewares. Today, Freedom is rewriting the rules of retail with a bold digital transformation. By revamping its ecommerce platform, integrating a dropshipping model, and adopting AI-driven search and product discovery, the company has redefined both its in-store and online shopping experiences. These changes combined with innovative omnichannel strategies, ensure Freedom is delivering a customer-centered experience, offering an endless aisle of possibilities and limitless choice. Reported results with Coveo in the first 30 days: 5.5% uplift in average order value (AOV) 15% increase in customer sessions with search 50% decrease in merchandising effort By providing customers with the right information at the right time, Coveo empowers businesses to create exceptional online experiences that drive customer satisfaction, foster long-term loyalty, and directly impact the bottom line.

Leading Brands Use Coveo AI to Transform their Ecommerce Product Discovery and Accelerate Revenue Growth
Caleres, FleetPride, and Freedom Furniture Leverage Coveo AI-Search to Personalize Product Discovery and Boost Conversions , May 22, 2025 /CNW/ - Coveo, the leader in AI-Relevance, delivering best-in-class AI-search and generative experiences that maximize business outcomes at every point-of-experience, today announced that leading business-to-consumer and business-to-business brands Caleres, FleetPride, and Freedom Furniture are leveraging its AI-Relevance TM platform to transform online experiences, boost conversions, and unlock new growth opportunities. By delivering relevant, personalized interactions across the entire customer journey, Coveo empowers businesses to delight consumers and drive significant revenue gains. The Coveo 2025 Commerce Relevance report, a survey of 4,000 adults across the US and UK, found that 77% of shoppers research online before buying, even if they buy in-store, and 43% of those surveyed said if they have a goal in mind they head to the search bar. This represents a huge opportunity for companies to win big or lose big as, if search falls short, the report found that 72% of shoppers will leave, with 36% going straight to a competitor. Coveo equips companies with AI-search to enhance engagement through intelligent, tailored experiences that reduce friction and deepen loyalty. "Too often, online experiences are frustrating and unproductive for customers. In today's digital landscape, businesses win or lose based on the precision, speed, and intelligence of their online experience," said Peter Curran, GM of Commerce at Coveo. "Coveo is proud to partner with leading brands who are transforming their digital experiences with AI-search to deliver the relevance and personalization that their customers demand – and who have the impressive business metrics to prove that these efforts drive significant revenue growth." Caleres Steps into the Future of Ecommerce with Advanced Search and Discovery Caleres is one of the most successful shoe retailers you've never heard of. The multi-billion St. Louis-based parent of Famous Footwear, Sam Edelman, Dr-Scholls, Vince and Veronica Beard traces its history to pre-Civil War, navigating more than 140 years of business by staying one step ahead of an ever-changing industry. An early adopter of the web, Caleres witnessed the trends and growth of ecommerce take shape. A few years ago they identified that their search and discovery technology was not optimized to handle a complex catalog of more than 600,000 SKUs organized by color, size, width, and store availability. They were unable to adjust, test, or access data regarding on-site search, product listing pages, and product recommendations. Finally, they relied on thousands of manual rules that were time-consuming and difficult for merchandisers to maintain. For the evolution of their next generation ecommerce experience, they chose Coveo's AI platform to power their search and experience layer. 21% increase in revenue YoY 25% increase in conversion rate FleetPride Accelerates Customer Service and Drives Revenue with Enhanced Digital Presence and Data-Driven Insights In trucking, downtime is a liability costing thousands of dollars a day. Founded in 1999, FleetPride is North America's largest distributor of truck and trailer parts and service in the independent heavy duty aftermarket. FleetPride's 4000 experts across 300+ locations, 85+ service centers, and five distribution centers help customers find the products they need — as quickly as possible. But FleetPride needed to catch up with its digital presence. Its website was failing to serve its customers, who needed an exact part number to order an item online. FleetPride's siloed system of tracking inventory offline and online meant that customers often had limited visibility into stock availability or price. Adding to the problem, FleetPride's website included a sprawling inventory of over one million parts and accessories. With Coveo's artificial intelligence technology solutions and a better understanding of their customers, FleetPride was able to boost customer engagement, deflect customer cases, and create more sales opportunities through customized shopper experiences. Reported results with Coveo over measured period: 7% increase in revenue per visit for sessions 9.6% increase in conversion rate 27% increase in search engagement Freedom Furniture Reimagines Retail with Intelligent Search and Product Discovery Freedom Furniture has long been a trusted name in Australian and New Zealand homes, offering stylish, personalized pieces that cater to every taste and lifestyle. With over 60 stores and more than 40 years of excellence, the company has earned its reputation as a leader in furniture and homewares. Today, Freedom is rewriting the rules of retail with a bold digital transformation. By revamping its ecommerce platform, integrating a dropshipping model, and adopting AI-driven search and product discovery, the company has redefined both its in-store and online shopping experiences. These changes combined with innovative omnichannel strategies, ensure Freedom is delivering a customer-centered experience, offering an endless aisle of possibilities and limitless choice. Reported results with Coveo in the first 30 days: 5.5% uplift in average order value (AOV) 15% increase in customer sessions with search 50% decrease in merchandising effort By providing customers with the right information at the right time, Coveo empowers businesses to create exceptional online experiences that drive customer satisfaction, foster long-term loyalty, and directly impact the bottom line.

27 Durable Zappos Shoes You'll Wear Every Day
A pair of New Balance Classics 327 sneakers with a sporty and chic design. You'll want to wear these for farmers market runs, trips to your fave coffee shop, and park walks with friends. Promising review: "Love these shoes. After reading other reviews, I do agree that going half a size larger is best. I'm usually an 10, but ordered 10.5 and they fit great! Highly recommend!" —AnonymousPrice: $99.95 (available in sizes 5–12 and 11 colors) Dr. Martens Chelsea boots that will give you nostalgia for the combat boots you wore in college, but these are way easier to get on and off. And they add edge to every outfit. Promising review: "Love these, my first pair of Docs! I hope they hold up for a long time. Do not be afraid of how tall these shoes are, they are just right in person! Didn't take much time for them to break in, the leather is good, and on one shoe I can see real nice grain texture. (They aren't the type of shoe that looks like plastic.) I am considering putting an insole in them just to make them that much comfier." —AnonymousPrice: $114.95 (originally $130; available in sizes 5–12 and in dark brown) A pair of Sam Edelman stilettos because everyone needs a good pair of heels they can put on when they feel like getting dressed up for a special occasion or just, you know, a Tuesday.

I've had these for 5 to 6 years now and they're still holding up great!" —PeggyPrice: $120+ (available in sizes 5–12, medium and wide fits, and 30 colors) A pair of Birkenstock Arizonas that never disappoint in terms of comfort or style. You've been wearing them for years now, so why fix something that's not broken? Promising review: "I was a little hesitant to buy these because it has a man-made upper rather than a leather one. I am pleasantly surprised by the quality of the material. I would definitely order them again. In fact, it's hard to tell they are not leather unless I place them side by side with my leather Birkenstocks. The footbed and the sole are the same as regular Birkenstocks. As usual, Zappos sent them to me with lightning speed." —AnonymousPrice: $115 (available in women's sizes 4–12.5, men's sizes 6–13.5, two widths, and in stone) Mesh Mary Janes with rhinestones that perfectly complement your shiny personality. And they're nice and breathable, too. Promising review: "These shoes are super cute and unique. I enjoy the sparkle and being mesh, they seem really summery.

I always take a 7M in a Sam Edelman shoe." —DianePrice: $140 (available in sizes 5–11 and four colors) A pair of Crocs because it's hard to beat how convenient they are. You can wear them running errands or out to meet friends, and they're so lightweight, you'll forget they're even on. Promising review: "I wore Birkenstock sandals full time for 40 years. Then my right heel developed a bad case of plantar fasciitis, and I found that ONLY wearing Crocs helped! Now my heel doesn't hurt anymore, and the added bonus is that the Crocs are VERY easy to keep clean!" —Linda GPrice: $35.50+ (originally $49.99; available in sizes 4–19 and 36 colors) Gold Vionic loafers that will bring some 24-karat magic in the air whenever you wear them (there are also neutral colors available).

No trouble with my plantar fasciitis." —DianePrice: $135 (available in sizes 5–13, medium and wide fits, and 23 colors) Converse high-top sneakers because Chucks are timeless for a reason. They look good on everyone and go with almost everything. Promising review: "Love these shoes; they fit great and match with basically anything!" —AlexaPrice: $65 (available in sizes 5–18 and 15 colors) Vans slip-ons that are cool even if you never went through a skater era. They're so simple to slide your feet into that you'll have a hard time wearing any other pair of shoes. Promising review: "LOVE! These are my eighth pair of Vans and they're so stylish. I especially love the slip-on style because they are so convenient." —KaylaPrice: $60+ (available in sizes 5–17.5 and 18 colors) Ugg slippers so cozy, they'll basically feel like warm hugs for your feet and are perfect for lounging at home. They have a rubber sole so you technically could go outside in them if you can manage to muster enough energy. Promising review: "This is my second pair of Ugg slippers. I love them. They felt a little snug when I first put them on, but within a few hours, they were perfect. My last pair lasted two years, and I wear them every day, all year long. I wear a 7.5 and got an 8, they fit perfectly." —AnonymousPrice: $94.95 (available in sizes 5–11 and three colors) A pair of Coach platform loafers that are sleek and edgy at the same time, giving you plenty of ways to change up your look. Promising review: "I love these shoes!!! They are so cute and comfortable. It fits true to size, and I can't wait for the brown or black to go on sale because I will buy them too. They are a MUST-have!" —CherylPrice: $97.50+ (originally $195; available in sizes 5–11 and three colors) A pair of Havaianas flip-flops because once the weather is warm, your closed-toe shoes never see the light of day. These are cushioned and the slim profile makes them a little fancier. Promising review: "I was very pleased with these flip-flops. They are durable and do not fade, (even the black ones).

Love these!" —AnonymousPrice: $140+ (available in sizes 5–10 and six colors) A pair of Sam Edelman mules so easy to slide in and out of. They'll instantly elevate your look without you even having to try. Promising review: "These are really cute and feel broken in the second you slip them on. The leather is super soft and they are really comfortable. As many other reviewers have noted, these run a half size large. I am a true 9 in all shoes, including this brand. But this time I had to return the 9 for an 8.5. They fit perfectly." —AzelsmPrice: $140 (available in sizes 4.5–11, medium and wide fits, and 15 colors) A pair of pointed-toe flats that look like standard flats from the front but have metallic accents on the heel that will catch everyone's eye when you walk by.

In fact, you'll probably want to pick up a backup as you'll be wearing these daily. Promising review: "I have very difficult feet (super high arches and slightly wide feet, but not wide enough for extra-wide shoes). I live in a warm climate so I can wear these almost year-round. They are very comfortable and I can wear them for short strolls or shopping. They are a stylish and budget-friendly version of similar shoes that YSL and Hermes make. Also great for travel as they take up virtually no room in a suitcase or even a tote bag." —SuzieGPrice: $57.54+ (originally $90; available in sizes 5–11, medium and wide fits, and 15 colors) Sam Edelman ballet flats that are an essential in every closet because they can be paired with jeans and dresses and look good either way. Promising review: "You know someone loves a shoe when they buy a second pair of I just ordered my second pair. I got a pair this spring, just before I had some minor foot surgery. It turned out to be one of two pairs of shoes I could wear without pain because it doesn't have any pressure points. I literally wore these for 3 weeks straight. I love this shoe because I can wear it with jeans or skirts and it's easy to wear on a plane. They pack great!" —AnnPrice: $84+ (available in sizes 4–14, narrow, medium, and wide fits, and 15 colors) Hoka Clifton 10 running shoes so comfy, they might just motivate you to go outside and get moving because of their super cushy sole. These are like, cooler dad shoes, and every step will be nice and bouncy. Promising review: "Ordered these as a backup to another pair of Hokas that I ordered but fell in love with the look and especially the comfort!! So I kept BOTH!! Love 'em!" —RBPrice: $150 (available in sizes 4–12, medium and wide fits, and 10 colors) Frye leather slip-ons for those days when you want something low effort but still stylish. These are low profile and have a naturally worn-in look that makes them a go-to choice. Promising review: "I really love this shoe. Nicer than wearing a regular 'tennis shoe' while still being casual and comfortable. Worn right out of the box without any issues. I am usually a size 8 in most shoes and this fit perfectly in an 8." —ShelleyPrice: $128 (available in sizes 5.5–10 and four colors) Sam Edelman slingbacks with a cute kitten heel that give you some extra height without straining your entire foot. They come in fun patterns (animal prints!) and solid colors, so there's an option for every personality. Promising review: "At first, I didn't have much faith in these as I had already tried on many pairs of pointy-toed kitten heels, but they are amazing! The fit is great, I think it's because they're longer in the toe box than the others I tried, so when my foot slides forward, my toes aren't being pushed into a tiny point. The heel is comfortable, and the cushioning is just right. It's an updated classic look that I will wear for years to come." —AnonymousPrice: $97.96+ (originally $140+, available in sizes 5–14, medium and wide fits, and 20 colors) Superga canvas sneakers because a good pair of white tennis shoes gives you so many outfit options — dresses, skirts, shorts, and jeans will work so well with them! Promising review: "I love these sneakers! I was looking for a replacement for my Simple sneakers because they no longer make them, and these are just the ticket. They are well-made, comfortable, and so cute. They have a good full arch support. If your foot is widest at the toes, though, I would recommend going up a half size." —Heidi KPrice: $36.63+ (originally $70; available in sizes 5–11 and eight colors) Adidas slides that will bring you back to your carefree soccer team practice days when you didn't have to pay bills and be an adult. These sandals are still just as comfy as you remember, btw. Promising review: "I took others' advice and sized down. Normally I wear a women's 9.5–10, so I ordered the M8/W9, and the fit is perfect. Flip-flops rub a blister between my toes, so slides are a good alternative. These look sharp, and the price is right." —CMMPrice: $20+ (available in sizes 5–14 and in white)
