Nice look, Little comfort
By The KnowVerified Purchaser from Ludington, MI on 8/15/2008
Sizing:
Feels half size too big
Width:
Feels too narrow
Pros:
Attractive Design, Looks great with jeans
Cons:
Not Breathable, Not enough cushion
Best Uses:
Casual Wear, Going Out
Describe Yourself:
Athletic, Comfort-oriented, Practical
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

I bought this shoe for leisure wear when going out with friends. The look of the shoe is why i bought it, and I was hoping that it would provide enough comfort for a night out. Soon after I wore this shoe I found that its fit was much too narrow. When I walked in them I felt like I could not balance myself. Even when standing on carpet, this shoe did not allow for to stand for long periods of time without some discomfort. For someone who wants a stylish shoe and does not mind a little discomfort this is a great shoe, but if you require support, keep looking. Whether you will like this shoe or not will all depend on how much you are willing to sacrifice looking good to your body feeling good.

This lightweight shoe takes me to the gym. It's perfect for weights and the elyptical. Also, takes up limited space when traveling. Reminds me of my favorite pair of Asics Tigers I had 30 years ago!!!

Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

This is a great shoe overall. I bought this specifically for tai chi class - the sole is just right for the type of movement done. Not heavy on the foot, very comfortable! No scrunched up toes, as happens with regular athletic shoes in tai chi class. The guys I take class with noticed them right away and wanted to know where I found them. Its also a great every day shoe, to throw on for a quick trip to the grocery store, hanging out, gym workouts, and wherever you wander. It goes great with sweats or jeans. Worst part was deciding which color I wanted.

He really likes it
By PamelaVerified Purchaser from San Diego, CA on 11/4/2007
Pros:
Attractive Design
Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

I bought this shoe for my little brother so I don't know too much about the fit or comfort but he seems to love it. He wears them for almost every occasion, such as going to school, hanging out with his friends, playing sports, working out... they're still in good shape and they're still his favorite shoe. I would say they look very stylish and athletic.

Bottom Line:
Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

This is a great shoe! I have worn them for about three weeks and I definitly got my money's worth. I have a wide foot so for me they feel great. They give a bit, which I think is the reason they are so comfortable. Becuase they have laces you can always tighten them. I usually tighten them untill they feel snug on my feet. They are also very stylish. I wear them in the gym whenever Iam lifting , or whenever I go out. I do not wear them to run in becuase they are not that type of shoe. Imagine your old wrestling shoes with the tops cut off , thats how this shoe is designed. The only draw back is they get dirty easily but unless your tromping around in the swamps you'll be ok.

These shoes exude coolness.
