Great style and a well made shoe. My son has insisted on wearing (and jumping) these for every outing. Definitely would recommend PF Flyers.

Really comfortable shoe. I first bought it because of the Sandlot, but it lives up to its name. It's well worth the money and it's a nice conversation starter. Really good buy.

Good quality shoes. They look great and feel great. However, you should buy a half sizer bigger than usual, and don't play basketball with them.

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.

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.

My 21 year old son has worn Converse high tops from the time he was 12 years old until he tried these at 16. Now he refuses to wear anything else. I thought he was being ridiculous when he refused to wear the Converse Chucks I got him, I mean after all they look a lot alike. Till I put a pair on and what a difference. The Converse were very uncomfortable compared to these. My son works on his feet and I now understand why he likes these so much. We are on our 3rd pair of the PF Flyers Center Hi Re-Issue Sandlot/Canvas shoes. He wears them till they are falling apart. PF Flyers are very hard to find nowadays. Please don't stop making them. They are great!

My first pair ever and extremely satisfied. The lightly cushioned, arched insole is a quantum leap beyond 'Chucks'. The heel does make a farty sound, but not all the time and it's not an issue. Will wear these till they fall apart, then get some more!

I'm on my fourth or fifth pair in as many years. Best shoes ever. I wear one pair at work and an old pair for exercising. My oldest pairs are wearable and super comfortable, the insoles do need replacing eventually, New Balance will send you free ones, and you'll want to clean up the rubber once in a while. They can also develop small holes in the sides where the front piece of rubber ends. Note: My last two pairs have squeaked from time to time during their first two weeks. This is your heel rubbing against the back of the shoe. You can stop the noise by walking around with your toes pressed down a little.

PF Flyers live up to the guarantee (run faster and jump higher). The other day I had the challenge of a lifetime in which I had to tame the beast, PF Flyers gave me the edge here. And then they gave me the ability to steal home. Without a doubt the fastest shoes on the market!

PF Flyers never fail. Great fit, super comfy, and you never have to "break them in". This is my second pair and I have yet to be disappointed.

The shoes are stylish and great-looking, but they produce a ridiculous squeak when I walk. I suppose that PF Flyers have always claimed to make you "run faster and jump higher." Now, I realize that this is true just because you're forced to walk on the balls of your feet so as to avoid sounding like a duck when you walk.

Best shoe ever - I watched Sandlot all the time growing up and finally bought a pair even though I waited till I was 16. These shoes feel great, light and good arch support. They felt true to size to me. A must have for sure.

Awesome shoes very comfortable, excellent arch support. A+ for style. They are a half size smaller than Converse shoes. A must have for anyone who has seen The Sandlot.

I love the look of the shoe; I was a bit concerned that I had to order in a men's size, but the shoe fits great, not too wide. I love the stripe and the emblem. I bought the beige.

I absolutely love these shoes. I didn't have one problem fitting into them. I receive tons of compliments when I wear them. The only problem I have with them is that they make a farting noise when I walk in them. I've never had that problem with any other shoe I have ever purchased.

I\'ve been wearing chucks since I can remember the flyers are great shoes but not perfect.\r\n\r\nPros:\r\nThey have far more support and feel far more substantial than all-stars. They also take far longer to wear in.\r\nOver all they feel much better than any pair of chucks I\'ve every owned, at least that I can remember in the last 15+ years.\r\nThe sole actually provides traction- the sole of a pair of chucks may as well be greased with butter.\r\n\r\nCons:\r\nThey don\'t shape your feet as well as all-stars... they aren\'t as comfortable in that respect.\r\nAlthough I suspect that these would out last a pair of chucks (which is saying a lot) the rubber on the side (near the sole) of the flyers has (in only 2 months of use) started to slightly break away from the canvas.\r\nThese look much fatter (wider) than a pair of chucks.\r\nThe green dye that is used in areas on the inside of the shoe wears off on your socks pretty badly.\r\n\r\nOver all:\r\nReally good shoe but not good enough to switch completely from chucks. I think I might keep buying both- flyers are not a better shoe, they are a different shoe.\r\n\r\nAlso like the other reviews say you\'ll want to size up from a pair of chucks- I found that buying a half-size up worked perfect.\r\nFlyers are a half-size smaller than chucks.

I needed 1/2 size larger than Chuck Taylors. Fit, comfort, etc. are about equal to Converse. Just some minor styling differences. I was a little disappointed because there is no more arch support than Chuck Taylors. For me it's a toss up- buy either one.
