Very comfortable shoes overall. The lightweight construction allows the feet to breathe better than most other shoes. Only downside is the lightweight sole when riding a bike; the pedals tend to bite in a bit more than other shoes. Not a bad thing, just a little different.

I can't give these shoes a free pass. If you are not an experienced runner who knows how to run on your mid-foot, these shoes will probably not be comfortable for you. Yes, I like the style (green on white), but know what you are getting into before you buy; I should have taken some of the cautionary warnings about how little protection these shoes provide into account before I purchased. In conclusion: I will wear these shoes out, but will not re-purchase.

This are some sweet looking shoes and are fairly comfortable. There isn't a lot of padding or arch support, but they are so light and form to your foot so well they feel like a slipper. I have narrowish feet, these fit me well and seem true to size. The shoes come with both grey and orange laces so you can keep them low key or make them a little flashier. The construction doesn't seem to be super durable, not that anything has fallen apart after a few solid days of wear, more of just a general first impression. They were absolutely comfortable right out of the box.

Even though I have worn a 9.5 in the Saucony Jazz for the last three pairs of sneakers I've owned, I had to return the size 9.5 of this model for 10s. These bullets fit like a glove. They're not as padded as the Jazz, but that's to be expected for lower-profile shoes. I love the way they look.

The size of the sneaker ran a little smaller than I had expected. Normally, a 10 fits my foot perfectly allowing for additional space. This one, however, does not.

These were my fave walking shoes for 3 months - perfect on the hard hospital floors at work and on the street. Great fit, great style and comfort. Always get lots of compliments on them, too. The downside: the nylon fabric is quite thin and a hole wore in the top from my toe, right where the nylon meets the suede trim. Granted, I have walked many, many miles in these shoes, but 3 months is a short lifespan for this much money. I've had the same happen with a pair of Onitsuka Tigers, but not in such a short span of time.

As a casual shoe, this is the one everyone should have in their closet. For most people, size up 1/2 your regular size. However, for small-footed guys like me, this is a PERFECT FIT. Could use some arch support (since there is NONE), but otherwise this is an excellent shoe!

Great look, but terrible comfort -
I loved these shoes when I saw them, but had a change of heart when I put them on. You can feel every bump, rock, crack, even blade of grass that you walk over. Wish they were comfortable b/c I would love to wear these all of the time.

Awesome shoe!
I was kinda weary of getting these, but I needed a comfortable shoe and I like the retro look of these. I'm glad I got them because they are indeed comfortable. The fit reminds me of slip-ons, which is what I usually wear. Basically a snug fit without very much shoe. I like the slim style. They aren't big and bulky at all, but they're WAY more comfy than slip-ons are. The soles are removable, too, so if I need to get something better for walking around (I don't think I will though), I can. Excellent shoe for the price.

Stylish, low pro. Slightly more blue than pictured. Narrow, good for me. Not much sole in front of shoe, but it is a track style. In conclusion, I dig 'em.

Style over comfort -
The shoe is fairly comfortable, but the comfort does not outweigh the way they look. They are a light shoe and nice for running. If you have feet problems I would refrain from purchasing them, but overall it is a very nice shoe.

I was a little leery when I first got them that they would be too narrow and flimsy. I have big and wide feet. I can say now that they are very comfy and have given me no problems at all. They look great and are great for kicking around town or chillin at the house. Thanks Zappos!

These shoes were so awesome....until they fell apart. Excellent fit, looks totally awesome on your feet like a slipper, but if you are wearing these shoes everyday everywhere, they are not going to last. It started with little tears in the fabric over the toes. I repaired the rips with a needle and thread. Thats where it got crazy. I now have huge vent on the tops of both shoes. Basically if you go casual one day a week, these are the shoes for you. If you are in a band on tour walking around cities and performing in these, they are going to fall apart, FAST!

Beautiful shoes, don't last -
I love Saucony shoes, and the Bullet has a great, leaner profile. The black/burnt orange color is really gorgeous! However, like the reviewer below noted, the nylon upper goes FAST. Just normal wear has left the nylon shredded within a couple months. I have never seen a shoe, never mind a sneaker, wear through so fast. A real tragedy, I loved these shoes!

Great feel, but didn't last -
I must preface this review with the information that I wore these shoes all day/every day and walk a good bit more than your average city-dweller: Very comfortable in a minimalist way (though I did remove the standard insole and replaced it with one offering moderate arch support). Shoes weigh almost nothing, feet are able to flex and breathe normally, etc. Essentially, all the benefits of being bare-foot, while still maintaining a barrier between your feet and the outside world (which is nice if you live in an urban environment or simply don't like the whole barefoot thing). However, they fall apart quickly. Within a week the nylon in the 'toe-box' area had ripped. I sewed it up with a canvas patch on the inside, but this has turned into a never-ending process of shoe repair (a DIY mentality frequently borders on pathology). When I finally covered the entire interior of the nylon (weaker) areas with patches, the shoes went through the outsole in the heel . . . now I slip all the time. Recommended if you like constant repairs (or buying new shoes . . .).

Good looking but uncomfortable.
I bought a pair of Bullets in the green/white style after buying a pair of Saucony Original Blazes. I knew Saucony's ran small so I ordered a half size larger, and the Bullets were still very snug. There's little arch support and after walking on concrete for an hour my feet were really sore. However, they look great and I get lots of compliments on them. These are a night out looking good with minimal walking-type shoe for me.

Fits like a glove -
These shoes are a bit odd. At first, I hated them and was gonna send them back. Then I decided to give them a chance and found that they're not that bad. Do not purchase these if you like bulky, oversized shoes. They really do fit like a glove and even though they feel a little small, I cant imagine wearing a size bigger because it would probably feel even more awkward. I've almost completely broken in these shoes now and I'd have to say that I like them a lot...just wouldn't purchase another pair.

Great shoe! I wear them all the time and they feel like I'm wearing little to nothing at all. They do tend to rub blisters on the backs of my heels when I wear them without socks but they may stop doing that as they break in.

This is a great looking and comfortable shoe. You'll love it . . . IF . . . you order a half size larger. I ordered my normal size and discovered, too late, that my toes were cramped; so, I ordered one half size larger and, voila! Perfection.

Zappos has great service, but unfortunately I didn't use the return for this shoe. If you are a girl, it is perfect. It's light, thin and slick. But, if you are a guy, well, it is like you are wearing your sisters shoes. They only look good in tight clothes. I wear an 8.5 and these shoes make me look like I'm wearing a 5.5. So, if you don't like these shoes on first impression, there might be a reason why. I wish I would have listened to a reviewer on this one.

Nice shoes -
Zappos rock! I ordered them of same size initially as my other Nike shoes, but because these shoes are thinner in the width near the toe, I felt I needed 1/2 size bigger. Zappos made this process so smooth. Thanks!

Phenomenal shoes!
These arrived the other day. Amazing shipping/service from zappos.com!
I have the navy blue/cement colored ones. My only gripe is that they dont have a black/white or black/gray version! Great fit, (Sauconys do tend to run small!) and slick looks. Like wearing a sock. Very light and not clunky at all!

 |  | Dear customer service guys: I wanted to say how awesome your staff is. I've dealt with several via phone doing some shoe shopping, and they're always, always, always cheerful and they personalize the conversation. Your staff seems to enjoy their work and makes shopping online/exchanging via phone a breeze. The VIP overnight shipping is great too, but I could do without that as long as your staff continued their positive, personal service to customers. Thanks so much to whoever trains your staff...you've obviously got great staff training programs and great managers/supervisors. Thanks again!!! |  | ~ Elizabeth H., November 08 2009
