I received a pair of these as a gift and I was thrilled, always wanted a pair of these when I was younger and they are super. They are much lighter than modern
adidas shoes and have a thinner top, due to the fact that this is what
athletic shoes were like back in the 70s. The only part I didn’t like were the laces (I got the Air Force Blue and Royal blue shoes that came with "white" laces) which have been "aged" to make them look older, look dingy, and take away from the shoe. I replaced these with brand new laces straight away and they look exactly like the ones I wanted way back when. They are true to size and width, and they look good in any casual sense. They will look a little longer than modern
athletic shoes if you have large feet (like me) since most shoes at that time were designed around a smaller size as a basis, but if you compare them with your more modern shoes, you’ll see they are the same length... an optical illusion, but this does not detract in the least and I am looking at picking up a few other pairs here in other colors since I have received so many compliments about them. Great shoe!
