Very Comfortable -
This shoe is very comfortable. When I couldn't find Puma Suedes in the color that I like because they are trying to go all-80's with gaudiness, I took a look at a pair of Vans which ran a little thin. Then I tried out these and they were extremely comfortable. My only issues are that I wish they had them in light gray and that after a couple weeks I still get a little squeaking sound that you can hear when I'm walking around the quiet halls in the office.

Sneakers -
This is my 2nd pair, just wanted another color. I like the wide toe box. I took the sneaks out of the box, gave them a wash and started wearing. I don't wear socks with them and no rubbing with a brand new pair (no blisters!) A similar sneaker from another large sporting good retailer looks good with a lower price but a seam on the inside gave my little toe a blister. No problem with the Simple Sneaker! Well worth the $, I'll see how long they last.

The perfect casual sneaker -
If you're looking for a comfortable casual sneaker that's perfect with jeans, short, slacks, or for walking around with just about anything, then these are yours. They're comfy, stylish, durable. I feel their value, quality, and style make them a worthy purchase. Kinda thinking of getting them in 2-3 colors (I have the blue) so as to go with everything. They just become a part of "your look", you know? Also - a little more narrow than I remember. And no, not great arch support, but comfy and cool? Aboslutely.

I've had my pair of Simple sneakers for over six months, which I think is the right amount of time for a “proper review” of a shoe: the Simple O.S. is a great sneaker. Period. The only other shoe I've worn that approaches the level of comfort and durability of the Simple O.S. are my "old school" Puma "California" sneaks, which just finished their 6th season and thus had to be “retired” back to their original box (hey, gotta keep 'em... they're classics!). I recently spent a week wandering around San Francisco wearing my Simple O.S.s “full time”: they provided amazing comfort all day without any problems. These shoes still feel as fresh as the day I put them on. *Note: I do have a slightly “lower than normal” arch, so I do have to be careful of what shoes I wear... thus, my advice to everybody is to have your feet checked out by a doctor before purchasing any shoe. I've had “shoe troubles” for years until I was properly evaluated. It made a big difference. Simple fits "me"!

The Only Sneak For Me -
Been buying these from Zappos for years now. Black, blue, green, sand - I've had 'em all. I love these shoes and hope they never stop making them. A solid, functional, and long-lasting piece of footwear. Styling is classic and not overdone. Always comfortable and supportive.

Simply amazing.
With the comfort and look of any great Vans sneaker, Simple delivers an incredible shoe with their "Old School" sneaker. The durability and construction of the sneaker is fantastic, and even after a few months mine still appear to be never-worn. Though I wouldn't recommend them for long-distance walking, they are well-worth the purchase in one's daily routine. The shoes squeak when they first are worn but that goes away after about a half hour of walking in them.
Enjoy!

Good lookin' but they hurt!
Definitely the coolest looking shoes I have ever owned. I tried to do the right thing and buy earth friendly shoes. I WANT to like them, I really do but they hurt my feet. Very stiff and make noise when you walk. Wore them to work one day and could hardly walk by the end of the day. Tried them a couple of time for half days, hopping they would break in, but still just about the same. Happy with the Zappos service- very sweet- but my next order will probably be a comfy pair of Vans. Giving these shoes to the homeless shelter.

One small flaw -
This is my second pair of these, and I ordered the blue ones this time (I ordered sand last time). The blue dye on the shoes rubs off on the laces and the non-blue part of the shoes. It’s not terrible, but it is annoying. For that reason alone, I won't order this color, or any color where the dye might run.

I ordered my Simple shoes and got them the next day and they fit perfect. Zappos customer service is top priority!!!!!! I have been a customer for a long time and ordered hundreds of dollars of various shoes, and I am totally satisfied. But seriously Zappos is the best way to get shoes via the internet.

Very comfortable, versatile, great-looking, but...
I bought this shoe for my boyfriend and he absolutely loved them. The only complaint he had was that the inside heel started to wear out and actually cut his heel. To be fair, he wore them pretty much every day for almost a year before it got to the point that he was bleeding. I would say the heels held up for about 8 months. But, they were a good price and he loved them while they lasted!

More attractive in the picture than in person. Bought this shoe to help lower my ecological impact...I am sending it back. Feels like you are wearing bark on your feet. No cushioning, and they squeak when you walk. Nice concept, bad end product

A new classic -
I love these sneakers. The design reflects the company's name: simple. But like all designs that end up being classic, they are elegant in their simplicity.
Comfort-wise, they are almost unnoticeable on my foot, and give the best arch-support of any shoe I have ever owned.

Simply Satisfied -
I bought my first pair of Simple shoes in 2001 and they finally wore out in 2008. The exact shoe that I previously had isn't being made any longer, but this model seems to be the new replacement. While I have a lot of shoes that are much more expensive, my Simples are the shoes I go to when I just want to kick about. For the price, I don't think you can get a better shoe. My only complaint is that they don't make a size 12 1/2.

Not quite the same anymore -
I owned a pair of these years ago and they were amazingly comfortable and well made and lasted for years. I recently bought another pair as the arch support and looks couldn't be beat. But... since they've started producing them in China they feel cheaper, both in material quality and comfort. Still a great looking sneaker but not the same stellar craftsmanship and quality. They feel like typical Chinese knockoffs.

Great shoe -
I hate shoes. I think they all look stupid. There is way too much design going on in that square foot of fabric. That's why I like this shoe. It's practical, yet, elegant, and doge gone it, simple. It is just as comfortable as any other shoe I own. My only qualm is that with some socks, I get squeaks when I walk. I might be the only one, but I thought that was weird and I hope that it goes away as I break them in.

I bought this shoe for my husband. He recently put a hole in his favorite green Sketcher's...so I bought him the Simple's... I gotta say great looking shoe! Also he wears them every single day despite his 23 other pairs of shoes...so I'm guessing they are his favorites now!

The shoes have a unique look and the recycled tire-soles are part of the appeal. They are comfortable, but a little loose feeling. Decent value.

I've had dozens of these shoes. I used to pack them in my backpack for nights where'd I skateboard before going to the bar. I'd rip up a pair of my skate shoes, then slip these comfy, awesome looking simples on. They are the most comfy shoe ever. I love them, chicks love them, and they've never been anything but perfect in the past 10 years!

These shoes look really great - I bought them for my husband. He usually likes Vans, but he really loves these shoes. He likes them a lot and had no break-in period with them. Also, Zappos rocks as I got these after a return!
