My second pair and I still love them -
I originally purchased this shoe in London during the summer of 2005 and proceeded to wear them practically every day to walk around the city. After wearing them for a few years, I put insoles in them, which really helps with the lack of arch support - if that's your concern - don't worry; this shoe is worth it to buy anyway! I absolutely love my new black ones (my old pair are pink) and am actually wearing them today!

Cute and stylish -
Nice shoes, they were for my girlfriend. Great look and a pretty ok comfort. But after one day walking with them in San Fran you feel your feet pretty much :-). But thats not the main application for these shoes.

Cute shoe -
Runs a little larger. I normally wear a 7 or 7.5 and I had to get a 6.5. Lightweight and cute!

Runs way big -
My only gripe about this comfortable sneaker is that it runs so large. I didn't discover this in time to return it, of course (having worn them outside) but will continue to flop around the house in them.

Not good quality for the price -
These shoes are cute, but minimal in construction. They have virtually no padding and my feet sweat in them when I wear them. Im sorry to say they are somehow less comfortable than original Jack Purcells (and thats saying something). I wish I had gone with Simples "Carousel" instead...

Super Cute and Comfy -
These shoes are great. Very comfortable. They sort of have a suede lining. I seriously recommend wearing foot peds...make sure when you are buying the peds that they are the ultra low cut ones...no one likes to see the overhanging ped coming out of the shoe...definitely a fashion DONT! Other than that they are the perfect summer shoe...its too bad that they arent continuing them...they should be a classic...forever obtainable.
Other shoes recommended by reviewer: Any ballet flats or flats in general...comfort compouded with style!

Nice ballet flats!
Overall, these are really nice casual ballet flats. Like most others, they have no support, so you'll probably have to buy shoe inserts. They do run big in both width and size. I usually wear a 10 wide, this shoe I took a 9.5M.

Very, very comfortable -
These are very cute and slim-looking. I normally take either a 9 or 9.5 (narrow) and ended up with an 8.5, which is still roomy.

Cute, but thin -
I guess they really are dance shoes cuz they sure don't have a lot of substance to them as they are VERY thin soled and rather flimsy for the price. I'm kind of lukewarm about wearing them as much as I joyfully bounce around town in all my other Converse slip-ons. Maybe I'll take a dance class and love 'em then? Zappos, as usual, is the only way to buy shoes!

Listen to me -
The reviews are correct on this one. These sneakers are everything you'll expect it to be. I absolutely love them on me and hopefully you will too once u purchase these. They are very cute with leggings but I have not tried them with jeans yet but Im pretty sure it'll look fabulous. The size however is not true to size. I typically wear a size 7 in women and a 5 in men. After reading everyone's comment, I went for a size 6 in these Jack Purcells and they fit perfectly. However, I can not wear socks with them. If anyone plans on wearing socks with these MAGNIFICENT sneaks, go down 1/2 a size. BUY IT NOW!

Love em. Buy em -
Cute cute. They go with jeans and skirts and everything in between; I am constantly getting compliments when I am out and about with them on. The only thing is, like other converse shoes, there is not a whole lot of arch support or cushion. These are not shoes that you would want to be wearing if you have to be on your feet all day or plan on any high impact activity. Otherwise, they are stylish, comfortable and easy to slip on. Love em.

Ive been wanting a pair of black skimmers/ ballerina type shoe and I must say these are it. Im going to buy another pair. They run a just little big but that's okay. They feel great and are super cute. You can wear them with just about anything.

My Second Pair!
I love these shoes. I am not a "sneaker person" so these are perfect shoes to wear when going casual--great with a little skirt, capris, jeans, anything. VERY comfortable. I've even thrown them in the washing machine. No doubt this will not be my last pair...

BAD -
These shoes were very uncomfortable. I got them and they ran 2 sizes too big!!! Well I sent them back and then got the right size for me, but after walking around in them for a few days I got HUGE blisters on my foot! I would recommend to NOT get these shoes!

Awesome Shoes -
These shoes are very comfortable. They are flat and flexible like a ballet shoe. Before I purchase the shoe, I read the reviews and saw that they ran big. I wear a size 10 shoe and got these in a 9.5 and they fit fine.
I'm sure I will repurchase them again when this pair needs replacing.

Very lightweight, comfy, and goes with most everything. Not supportive (like most Converse shoes) but for a slip-on sneaker, they're stylish and are not too tight or big.

Quick and easy -
Good comfortable, casual shoe, even when your feet are a little swollen, it will mold to your foot. Completely flat with canvas sides and rubber soles and toes - just slip it on and go, no socks or hose required.

My New Favorites!
Just got these in the mail! They are wonderful! They are so comfortable the second you put them on. They are also very flexible. I already ordered a second pair in black! Very cute! They're my new favorites!!

Great shoes! Very easy to match! I wear it everyday now. It does run big though (a full size). You can put these in the washing machine and dryer (along w/ the pad inside); they'll shrink a bit but stretch back after a little wear.

Cute -
I got compliments right away on these. Very casual and yet much dressier than a boring flip-flop for summer. Goes with almost everything. Perfect for the airplane. You must put arch support or insole cushion in these. Order a half to full size smaller, Converse are always sized too big.

Cute but...
These are cute and easy to slip on and go... but they have zero support. But they fit a little loose so there is room to slip in something with support. So, don't let the non-support issue keep you from getting them if you like the look.

Great springtime shoe -
I absolutely love this shoe - it is so light - I feel like I have on slippers. I have a fairly narrow foot, so it was a little wider for me, however I put them through a wash cycle and low in the dryer and they fit like a dream - I'd highly recommend this shoe.

 |  | I was so impressed with your company. I don't think I will ever buy shoes in a regular store again. You are awesome!!! I am so glad I stayed up late one night to watch the late night news presenting your company. I had never heard of it until then. Keep up the good work. Thanks, Jan A. |  | ~ Jan A., July 30 2008
