Great casual shoe, very comfortable, but I had to buy a full size larger (bought size 14, normally a 13). I have flat feet, and the insole doesn't have too high an arch and is comfortable for a 10-12 hour day.

Good fit, casual walking shoe. No surprises here, though I would purchase an add on insert sole. The one that comes with the shoes is plain jane and doesn't offer much comfort.

I got this in a smaller size than I normally wear but it fits well. It's a nice looking retro shoe. I will buy another pair when this one wears down.

I love these shoes! I've owned many in the past 15 years. I actually had to order a pair of mens because women's Rod Lavers are not available right now. I wear a 7 women's and ordered a 5.5 in men's and they fit perfect. I will continue to wear these shoes because they are sleek and cute! Call me "old-school."

Great shoes! I felt that sizing was a bit small, but the shoe is very forgiving. Purchased 12 pairs for groomsmen gifts at my wedding. With such a variety of personality and taste, these shoes were still an absolute hit. Great for dancing! Zappos also shipped to me with lightning speed. Efficient, fair prices, and I'll be purchasing all my shoes here in the future if possible.

I love these shoes! They are so "clean" looking. They do not have that athletic look about them. They are designed for someone who knows labels but doesn't want "over the top" tennis shoe attention. The inside cushioning is very nice even the arch support. They are understated (3-stripes of Adidas not part of the look) however the Adidas emblem on the heel is perfect!

These are awesome! I work on my feet all day and these are the best. I have tried everything. Dansko clogs, Birkenstocks, running shoes, Keens but I always come back to these.
Brands I'd also recommend: This is the only brand to get. Stan Smith rocks too.

Zappos is amazing. Anything I order is shipped at lightning speed. The selection is fantastic, so much better than driving around to stores only to find the same minimal selections at the stores. This pair of Adidas I got are so cool, everyone is constantly saying how much they like them, with me being the biggest fan, they're really comfortable too. Oh, and by the way, when I have needed to return anything I bought, the ease and convenience of the process is unparalleled. Thanks Zappos and Adidas!

I have awkward feet so it's hard for me to find tennis shoes that fit right, and I was pretty skeptical of buying any shoes online. I really like these shoes- the only thing that has bothered me about these ones is that the tongue is a bit stiff at first and can rub against your toes. After wearing them in a bit though and positioning the tongue correctly, they work great and are very comfortable.

These are very nice shoes. I like the style and they are excellent footbag shoes. The only real downfall is how slippery they are on all surfaces

I bought these for my fiance and he loves them! I'm an adidas fan and these shoes have made him one. He wears a 13.5 to 14 in athletic shoes and its great that the size is available.

Love these shoes! Lightweight, comfortable and stylish. I get many compliments and have bought them for others. I am going to buy them in the green/black next. I have flat feet and these shoes are perfect for me. Most shoes have to much arch support and feels like there is a rock in my shoe. These are more cushy than Converse.
