A very comfortable and durable pair of shoes. They have a nice, wide fit and very good support. The only problem with the leather premiums is that the shoe tongue tends to shift around a bit with the shoes laces ending up on the top of the in-step. I do not seem to have this problem with the canvas Sandlot PF Flyers. I found that wearing a size 10.5 is equal to wearing a size 9 in Converse All Stars. I wear these shoes all the time and I highly recommend them.

I love Zappos. My son wanted these specific sneakers for school and he has a size 14. You never disappoint and they usually arrive within 2 days. The prices are fantastic as well as customer service. \r\nThanks

These shoes are great. They run a little big, so order a size down. They are a bit stiffer than usual sneakers and are very comfortable.

I've had mine for a little over a year now. They are still bright white. I just gave them a refurb with some beeswax leather cleaner and then oil based leather conditioner. Now, they shine like new. Perfectly broken in. Quite possibly one of, if not the most, comfortable shoes that I own. I highly suggest these. Only downside, I bought these last year for quite a bit less! I should have bought 2 pair! Fit true to size, but fairly narrow. So if you have a wide foot, these probably aren't for you. Very low arches as well.
Additional Brand Information
Reclassification of the Sneaker
Gem of the original American sneaker brands, PF has furthered the union of classic sport and modern fashion for over 70 years. In forward styles and archival reissues, the PF heritage endures in clean-lined design, premium materials and tailored quality.
Patented in 1933, Posture Foundation insole technology set a new standard in sneaker comfort. Its success grew and in 1937 became the basis for the brand name “PF Flyers.” PF elevated the fashion possibilities of the sneaker, in athletics as well as oxfords, boots and heels. Sport styles by PF were icons of the 1950s, renowned for helping you “Run Faster and Jump Higher.” In the first collaboration between a sneaker company and pro player, PF and basketball legend Bob Cousy created a string of classic court designs.
From fashionable court high tops to timeless deck styles, PF has established some of the most influential directions in sneaker design. Crafted in fine leathers and best-in-class textiles for men and women, find style and exceptional comfort from PF on Zappos.com.

These kicks turn heads! Especially those who grew up in the 90's know. Get yourself a pair of Sandlots and you will ready to take on Hercules. Rub on the heel a little, but a heel cup fixes that, which is why i give it a 4/5 on comfort (compared to 1/5 I'd give Chucks).

On my 3rd pair, the best shoes ever.
Amazing shoes. If you ride a motorcycle and don't like clunky Doc Martens these give you a fair amount of support/protection as well.
P.S. These do not wear out quick by any means I'm just hard on my shoes.

My first PF Flyers....
I am a Converse AllStars addict, buy a couple pair a week on average when the mood hits me, and finally bought these PF's from Zappos just to see what they were all about. Black Leather, so I am allowed to wear them at work (USPS has strict rules.) Much better construction than my beloved Converse, and more comfortable as well. I still put my DownUnders UltraWalker insoles in them for all day comfort, but the PF insoles are great for just normal use, something I'd never consider with my Converse shoes. I still prefer Converse for their styles, but these win hands down for out of the box comfort.

Indeed A Better Product -
The PF Flyers Center Hi-Premium Leather Sandlot Edition, despite feeling a size smaller than marked, brings superior arch support than the "no or low arch support" Converse Leather "Chuck Taylors" Black Mono-chrome Hi's. Except for the "Converse Nubucks," "Euro's Leather Limited Editions" and "Fancy Pants," I have donated all my Converse no/low arch support and no insoles sneakers to Goodwill Industries. This includes my "I-Robots" (Sorry Will Smith). I should have stuck with PF-Flyers from the "Get Go" because of their insoles contributing to the sport shoes having moderate arch support. I remember wearing a generic version of these when I was little. Sorry "Chucks," only those with insoles will be worn.

When it comes to comfort and quality construction, this shoe is a far better choice than the Converse Chuck Taylor shoe. I've had leather Converse hi-top Chucks in the past and now two pairs of PF Flyer's Premium Leather Center Hi- a Sandlot pair and a Dark Blue and Grey pair. Hands down, PF Flyers win. I am so pleased with the classic look and the comfort of this shoe. As an individual who generally wears a size 9.5 (US), I purchased size 10s after reading other buyers' reviews of the canvas PFs. Turns out that the size 10 was just the right size for my size 9.5 feet. Plenty of toe room without the extra length and clunkiness. As long as PF Flyers are still around, I will no longer buy Converse Chuck Taylors.
Furthermore, I am pleased with the Zappos company. Their efficiency, e-communication, and products are unmatched.
Back In High School -
Excellent support, fit and feel. I don't care how old you are, put on a pair of these and you're instantly transported back to pleasant younger days.

Great Shoes -
I've never worn Hi-tops before, and it was pretty difficult to get my feet into these at first. But once I did, they felt great. I'm used to wearing Alden boots as my everyday footwear, but I needed something for gym class, and got a pair of these for Christmas. I was worried they would not fit, but I take 10.5 in Aldens, and the 10.5 D in these fit perfectly. Very comfortable. Will be buying more.

Sandlot Premium Leathers are Great -
Great looking shoe. The leather is ultra high quality and durable. As always, PF flyers are extremely comfortable. This is my third pair in different style.
