These are great shoes--IF you can get them to fit, that is. Depending on the brand, sometimes I wear a 13 and sometimes I wear a 14. Based on another review that said these run large, I purchased size 13. But the 13's were so short that I couldn't even stand up in them without hurting my toes. I ordered size 14 after that, and they are so big that I can hardly keep them on as I walk! I feel like a little kid wearing his father's shoes. If these shoes only fit, they'd be fabulous. Sizing is very odd, though.

I own about ten pair of Globes and they are all the same, comfortable, true to fit, stylin and casual. Wear them to the beach or out at night, cool, casual, and classy. They are the shoes I have been looking for and I'm a complete loyalist now. These and other Globes are the absolute best in comfort and casual style.

Ok, I have had my eyes on these loafers for a long time, and even bought a pair for a friend of mine a couple years back. Well, I just got mine today, and I am EXTREMELY disappointed. They are just too small. I wear a 15 (the largest size these come in) and it's WAY too small! Opening the box I knew they weren't going to work, but I had gone this far; I needed to at least try. After almost breaking my finger trying to get them on, they went back into the box. So heads up, these shoes run a size smaller.

I love the service from Zappos. The shoes come fast, and they can be returned so easily. We looked all over town for Globe shoes, and there they were only a click away.

Wow -
If I could wear any pair of shoes for the rest of my life, I would wear Globe Castros. They go good with any outfit (nice suit, jeans and t shirt, shorts, etc). They're comfortable and stylish. I have 4 pairs (black/G Chord, Tweed, earth/military, and grey/light grey stripe) and I don’t even wear my tennis shoes anymore.

My boyfriend likes them -
Bought these for my boyfriend for his birthday (he's 23) and well, he's currently wearing them. They were supposed to be so he can go outside in the morning, but I catch him wearing them like regular shoes. I think it was a good deal.

Not what I expected -
These shoes were not comfortable, and when I walk my heel comes out very easily. Plus I thought they looked very narrow and weird on my feet.

Very Cool Shoes -
This is my second pair of Castros. I had the tan ones, now the perf white leather. The white ones are nice, because I wear them out to bars and clubs, and it looks like I have on nice shoes. They are super comfortable, but they still have the skate sole, which is nice if you want to wear them around town (or skate!). The only complaint I would have is that they slide off my heel when I walk, but someone with a wider heel probably wouldn't have that problem.

Globes are Great -
I have been searching for quality slippers for quite a while only to find cheap quality and/or poor construction. Within a few minutes after receiving these it was clear to me that I had found a top quality product. This Globe product can serve either as a bedroom type slipper or an outdoor shoe. The construction, quality and comfort are all there. Amazingly the price of these shoes is quite reasonable as well. Needless to say Zappos delivered their usual superlative service which is very much appreciated.

I ordered 2 pairs of these shoes for my son. They look terrific and appeared to be very comfortable. Unfortunately the sizing seemed a little odd. My son normally wears an 11 and is an easy fit. When the 11 arrived, they were huge! More like a 12. So I ordered a 10. When they arrived, they were very small and narrow, my daughter wears a size 9 in womens and they fit her. The shoe seems to be good quality and looked really comfy with a good sole. They also seemed to have a decent amount of support. Just wished they fit a little better. Fortunately ordering with Zappos makes returns easy.

Their great!
These are great. I get complimented on them all the time. I usually wear between 9.5 and 10 in most shoes. I wasn’t sure what to get since these only come in full sizes. I ordered the 9's and they fit perfect. These were my first pair, and I know there will be more.

Flat Out Awesome Shoe/Slipper -
I had been thinkin of getting these for a while and I couldn't decide between these and the DC Villians but the reviews really helped. I also like the styles of the Globe's a lot better. I got the black pinstripe ones and I flat out love them. I can't take them off. I've been wearing them around the house and I just wore them outside last night and they were perfect. They take a few days to break in and get nice and comfy but after that just an amazing feel. They also look great with jeans. I would definitely recommend these. And as always Zappos gave me amazing service with a fast shipping upgrade the next day...

Very nice -
So I ordered these shoes from another site, and believe me when I say that it was a "journey". So after realizing that I should have just come to Zappos, I put my order in and not only did they give a good shipping date but they moved up the date for me. I'm impressed.

Wow...Zappos and this shoe rock!
I normally wear an 11.5 in Etnies and Vans, but after reading reviews I ordered these in 11s. So far they are very comfy and fit perfectly. Zappos service/delivery is amazing! I ordered them yesterday at 3pm and the UPS guy just dropped them off at 1pm today!! Thanks Zappos!

Very easy to slip on and more durable than a slipper. Very comfortable and the styling is very attractive and unique.

Comfortable and stylish!
This is my second pair of Globe Castro's. I primarily bought them to run around the house as a heavier slipper, but do wear them out occasionally. They are extremely comfortable and I receive many compliments on them. The only negative thing I would mention is they do have a tendency to slip when hurrying up stairs or running.

I purchased these on Sunday and they were on my porch when I got home from work on Monday! And I wore them to work on Tuesday. I bought these in black, as I needed a new pair of comfortable black flats. They're very simple--will go with everything. The insides are SO soft. I walk a lot at work and they are very comfortable. No break-in period needed with these. I bought my usual dress shoe size & they fit perfectly.

Good slippers -
These are comfortable, good-looking slippers. I don't wear them out of the house, but I sure like them for inside. They fit well and are pretty swanky. One caveat: The tag for the shoes is on the inside of the shoe, just below my inside ankle. I think that's a terrible place for the tag, as it always flops out when I'm wearing them. Nothing scissors can't handle, but Globe, next time, put it on the tongue like everyone else. Thanks.

These shoes rock!
This is my second time I'm buying a new pair of Globe Castros. I owned my last pair for two years and they fell apart on me (I wore them like every day and I'm pretty rough on my shoes). These shoes are definitely worth the buy because they're comfortable in any kind of weather, and they double in comfort as a sort of slipper that you can wear indoors. The sole is really strong and after you break them in you feel like you're hardly wearing them. When you first get them out of the package be aware that they might feel a little tight the first time you put them on, but like I mentioned you have to "break them in" to achieve full comfort. These are my favorite shoes ever, and I'll wear them my whole life!

I always drooled over Frye boots at the mall but just couldn't bring myself to pay so much! But after reluctantly purchasing my first pair, I am addicted! They are worth EVERY penny! Since October of last year I have bought 4 pairs. I absolutely love them. I got the Veronica in the dark brown. They took zero breaking in and after almost four months of wearing them 2-3 times a week, they still look amazing. I figure Frye boots will only look better with age. They wear so well and the leather only gets softer. I normally wear a 9.5 in other shoe brands and bought my regular size. My Veronica and Heath boots are 9.5 and my Campus and Carmen are size 9. It seems as if the higher heeled Frye's run smaller.

Globe Castro Men's Slipper -
Very comfortable; the size 15 felt a half-size smaller than marked. Recommend sizes larger than 15, but it only goes up to 15.

 |  | I recently ordered my wife a pair of shoes. As usual I could not keep it a secret and told her I ordered a size 9.5; at which time she told me she needs a size 10. When I called to change the order I was told the order was already shipped, but that you would also send out the new size and try and stop the initial order, but if they could not stop it just send them back. So in summary you have made a first time customer very pleased with awesome customer service.
