First pair of Simples -
Shoes definitely felt true to size. I liked the idea of the eco conscious part of these shoes. The color is great! Comfort is really pretty good considering I am on my feet 8+ hours a day for work.

Comfy -
Love these shoes! They make noise when walking though. Not the squeaky noise that some sneakers make, but the type that a high heeled shoe might make, though not so loud and annoying. Didn't expect that, but must be something about the material. Overall, comfy and cute.

Fun shoe! I'm really enjoying my new Simple Satire. The recycled tire bottom is a fun and novel way to show people that you can have cute shoes and be environmentally friendly! I've worn mine out and about several times doing a lot of walking and standing. While they are not the most supportive shoe, they fully lived up to my expectations and remain pretty comfortable until the end of the day.

Love these shoes!
Finally, a shoe I can wear all day with no problems and fashionable to boot. I also have the hemp/canvas version and wore them all over Washington D.C. and my feet stayed cool and didn't hurt. Simple is a wonderful shoe!

An adorable little shoe -
My shoe size is 35 and at 35 it's simply an adorable shoe. It looks great in skinny or slightly flared jeans and goes great with the long skinny shirt/skinny jean look. It provides limited arch support, so it's not the kind of shoe you'd want to walk in all day, but if you're going out to the Boliches in Buenos Aires with your friends, it's a cool shoe.

Wear almost every day -
These are great. Good fit, very comfortable, attractive thick blue laces go great with jeans. They do squeak a lot when you were socks. It's a bit annoying.

Cute but not comfortable -
These shoes look super cute with jeans and khakis. Unfortunately I have been spoiled by my Keens and Merrell. The sole feels hard and flat.

Tennies!
These are cool sneakers that remind me of shoes I had when I was a kid. The blue laces are fun. They are lightweight and comfortable but if you are looking for a squishy-comfort sneaker - these aren't it. Look great with jeans or khakis and are perfect knocking around shoes. I wear a 10.5 and I went with the 10 - they stretched and fit great.

Simple shoe dilemma...
See my review of Simple Hemp!!!! Order 1 full size larger than your shoe size. Go to simple website to see how to measure your feet and you can get the exact size to order...it works great!!! Order Birkenstock blue inserts; they are less expensive than from Birkenstock and worth it!!!

Love These!
These shoes are the best! I am a size 9.5 and they fit perfect. I like to wear my jeans to touch the ground in the back of the foot as opposed to the ankle and these shoes are perfect for that. Plus they make your feet look about 2 sizes smaller! Plus Zappos is the best!!

Cut but squeaky -
I really loved this shoe as soon as I got it out of the box. They are comfortable and awesome looking. But, their major drawback is that they squeak when the sole rubs against certain flooring. There is nothing more horrible in a shoe than one that squeaks. I read most of the reviews and could not find anyone who mentioned this. Am I the only one? Does it go away over time?

A nice shoe.
I've been a proponent of Simple shoes for years and I think that this may be my favorite from them thus far. The shoes are comfortable and seem very durable. I usually buy their canvas sneakers, but this new pair seems even more solidly made. I did add a pair of insoles because I have high arches and they have very little arch support, but I would recommend them to anyone.

Great!
I have found that I am wanting to wear these shoes every day. I got the brown with blue laces and have received lots of compliments. They are really comfortable with good arch support. Cute with jeans and hopefully capris when the weather gets warmer.

It's fine for looks, but...
I love the looks, but it has no arch support or heel padding. I bought them to wear with my black sweatpants as I walk my dog around the block, and I certainly wouldn't wear them for anything more than that as they do not provide any underfoot comfort.
They'd be perfect if they could get the comfort part right.

Comfy & Low Key -
These shoes look great (strangers notice them and compliment) and are extremely comfortable for kicking back and for doing 95% of the normal things I do. I tried to use them once for light hiking and my arches (high arches) started to cramp after awhile, but they're not designed for hiking anyway so that doesn't really affect my overall positive experience with the shoe.

Like Converse, except they're comfortable -
I bought and returned 14 pairs of sneakers from Zappos before I found these. I finally tried these based on the reviews and Simple's efforts toward reusing materials. On my feet, they look like leather Converse; very cool, very versatile. But unlike Converse, they're actually comfortable (negatives: moderate arch support, and the heel of one shoe rubbed my ankle for one day after I'd worn them a few weeks - this has since stopped). In general, my feet get sore and tired easily when I'm walking, but these shoes feel like a v. comfortable pair of Pumas I once had, that I could wear all day and not limp home in.

My Favorite Pair of Shoes -
These are my first pair of Simple brand shoes and I simply adore them. They are comfortable from the time I put them on in the morning until I take them off in the evening. They are the perfect casual shoe (cute and comfy).
Zappos.com is the best online store! My experiences with them over the past several years has continuously been positive.

Love these shoes!
Very comfortable right from the box--I have a pair of simple Sugars, and these are far more comfortable. Also very cute and, as other posters have said, don't make your feet look too big. I've had no problem spending the day walking in them. Sizing: I wear size 5.5-6, and the 5.5 was too small, but the 6 was perfect.

They fit!!!
Finally a Keen that fits a size 12. They are really cute. They are a bit wide as I wear a narrow but I just wear a thicker pair of socks. They are comfortable enough for a long mall shopping trip.

Love this sneaker -
A hip interpretation of the classic Chuck Taylor but manages not to make your foot look two sizes larger than it actually is. Like the shoe so much I bought it in two colors--great with jeans.

I have these in Dark Earth (with the blue laces) and I love the contrast. They are as comfortable as slippers, and really cute. Wonderful knock-around shoes to wear with any color.

Comfortable and Cute -
I bought these shoes (Simple Satire in black washed leather) a couple of months ago and have worn them several times since. They are very comfortable and there was no break-in period. However, two things: the black isn't true black; it's more of an off-black. I wear a lot of black and they aren't a real match with black socks or black pants. Also, they have no traction at all. I have several pairs of this style of shoe (low ankle, lace-up, Chuck-looking) and these have the least traction by far. But they are cute with jeans!

Cute dress sneaker -
I love the look. I was a little disappointed with the support...the arch is not particularly supportive and I was hoping for something that had a more athletic/performance feel to it. They are way cute and I will still get lots of use out of them. They look great with jeans and I am thinking they might be fun for summer/shorts etc. I have large feet, but the styling makes my feet look smaller.

I've had the Satires for a month now, in the green. I love the look, the way they're made and the overall lightness. They are comfortable and cute.
There does not seem to be much arch support, but it hasn't bothered me. I have had another wonderful shopping experience with Zappos, and have told numerous people over the yrs. to check out Zappos, not only for your extensive collection of footwear, but mostly for your incredible business dealings. Painless and professional.
Thanks Zappos!
