First of all, two big thumbs up to Zappos for their service. I received these shoes less than 24 hours after ordering them, which is my usual experience when dealing with Zappos. Now on to the shoes.\r\n I\'m a big fan of Converse slip-ons but wasn\'t sure if these are to be worn over shoes or as shoes, but I thought they looked cool so I ordered them. Fortunately, they are shoes. I wanted something to wear in rain or light snow and they\'re going to be perfect for that. They also have style out the wazoo. They look great worn with shorts (no socks, of course), too: I didn\'t expect that. I couldn\'t be more pleased other than they are pricey.\r\n For me, they run true-to-size. I wear an 11 but have to step down to a 10 in Converse, but not with these. If anything, they might run 1/2 size small. If I were to wear two pair of thick socks, I would go 1/2 size larger.

I've always loved Converse so when I saw this shoe I thought it looked interesting and something different from Chuck Ts and Jack Purcells, etc. I've never owned a pair of John Varvatos line and hesitated at first when I saw the price. I took a chance and ordered them and have been wearing them for about 3 weeks. First initial reactions were that they felt very good on my feet, but just like Chuck Ts it's probably not a good idea to wear when walking long distances. I definitely think insoles are a must. Before I put them in, my ankles were hurting after a long day at the zoo. Only been walking with insoles for a few days; hopefully things will go better. The charcoal is more like a dark brown. When I think charcoal I imagine a very dark gray/black. The back Converse rubber thing is peeling off a bit too just like how Chuck Ts do. Some shoe goo would help, but I don't think I should be shoe gooing a shoe that costs this much. Overall I don't think this shoe is worth the money, but I'll still wear it as long as I can and get my money's worth, if that makes any sense.

This shoe looks great, but the feel is average. Being a wing tip, this shoe is long and narrow. The back of the shoe rubs on the back of my ankle. I've only had these shoes for a couple of days so I'm hoping after some wear they will feel better. I really like the way they look. I ordered a half size down and it's the correct fit.

These are the best shoes. Ever. Except one minor flaw. The bottom falls out. I\'ve owned four different pairs now over two year period, buying my fifth. Kind of expensive for only lasting a couple months. I don\'t understand because my regular chucks are indestructible. The longest these have lasted have been 6 months. The pair I\'m wearing right now just busted through after only two months, another $95 down the drain...

In LA, we wear Chucks! Got my new Chucks yesterday; I love them. They are very comfortable, and I was actually a little surprised. I thought I'd have to break them in a bit, but they are great right out of the box. I did have to go a 1/2 size down. I first got my actual size 9.5 and they were too big, so, Zappos being so awesome, I got my 9's the very next day! The 9 fits perfect. I would agree that these shoes are narrow, but that is perfect for me.

I loved these shoes. Fresh out of the box, they are beautiful and extremely comfy. Love the sleek lines and lightweight low profile-ness of them, not bulky like the Chucks. But buyers be warned, the color fades! It's a great dark grey, but after a month or two of wear, the color fades to a strange faded beige color. No, it's not due to exceptional wear or exposure to water as the color is fine where my jeans usually cover. This means that the color of my shoes are no longer uniform: faded beige around the front top and sides, and dark grey on the very top of the laces.

Nice shoes for short walks -
About Zappos: Very fast shipping. Received my shoes on the very next day.
About the shoes: Bought these Varvatos in replacement of my old Chucks. These shoes don’t have much difference to my old ones besides the rubber insoles that makes them feel a little more comfortable. Other than that, they are pretty much the same. Oh! And the price is two times more expensive than the regular Chucks. Good luck with your shopping.

Absolutely the best shoe on the planet -
I wear a size 10 shoe & the 9 1/2 was too tight so I would not listen to the advice of buying one half size down from your regular size. I wear these without socks everywhere I go & they are as soft & as smooth & comfortable as anything I've ever worn. Very pricey, but worth it as I just bought a second pair to save for a rainy day.

Stylish but way overpriced.
I love these, but only because they look so good and there's nothing else that looks quite like them. I love the style. But they're nowhere near worth the price. The white stitching on the tongue started unraveling the first time I wore them and they're tattery (poorly made) in places where they shouldn't be. Also, I'd say the women's sizes run a little smaller than true to size. If I had it to do over, I wouldn't buy them at this price.

I first saw these shoes at a shoe warehouse and tried them on. I was absolutely stunned at how comfy they are. They are nothing like the Converse shoes, nothing rubbing the sides of your feet, nothing digging in. They fit like a glove. I didn’t buy them as they only had white, I can’t wear white as I hate the color, but I’m at Zappos buying the grey ones. I know there are super expensive and I’m not a fan of Converse by nature, but these are completely different fit than Converse.

 |  | Thanks for such wonderful service. I only ordered one handbag from you, but it was the right price, it arrived in record time, and the entire experience was a pleasure. My friends and family have ordered from you, and I always recommend your site to others with confidence. You are definitely my “go-to” site for online shopping, the gold standard, as far as I am concerned! |  | ~ Marlene A., November 09 2009
