These are probably the best investment in sneakers I've ever spent. They're stylish, comfortable and incredibly affordable. Must buy!

It's all about old school. When I was a kid growing up in the 80's ROOS were the coolest thing. I am older now and I think they are still cool looking sneakers after all these years. I like the side pocket.

These shoes are great! Love the style and comfort. The only flaw is that I noticed my pair to have more than acceptable threads that stuck out from both the top and sides of the shoes which I had to cut will scissors.
Other than that, love the shoes.

I have used this brand of shoes for running for years. In part because they accommodate my foot width. The look is retro, and they are comfortable for walking or running. I especially like that they offer less cushioning than is typical in a running shoe. While nowhere near a barefoot running type shoe, they are in a good middle slot between the standard strong support and cushioning shoe, and the barefoot running shoe.

Great shoes, but I was expecting them to arrive sooner than the 5 or 6 days it took for them to get here.

This shoe makes people nostalgia. Seems like everyone had a pair back in the 80's so it's great thinking back about the good old days. The Grey and Red combo is pretty snappy as well! Overall sizing feels a little bit snug. The US 9 (Euro 42) fits pretty true to a Puma 42 (snug) and is about a half size tighter than a Doc Marten UK 8 (Euro 41-42). Feels about a full size tighter than a Vans US 9.

I bought these shoes as a birthday gift for my husband. He absolutely loves them! They are just like the ROOS he had as a kid! And yes, they do have the zipper pouch on the side for quarter storage.

I love these shoes! They are very comfortable and are sized appropriate. Plus, since they are retro they are even more cool!

Zappos is a wonderful site to order from, I had to exchange shoes for my husband, and there was no hassle, we got the new shoes the next day and hadn't even sent the other ones back yet. They are awesome, we will definitely continue ordering shoes from Zappos.

This one an amazing purchase. Not only were the shoes top notch and a perfect fit for my husband, but we received an email the day after our purchase that Zappos upgraded us to next day delivery at no extra charge and just to say thank you for our business. Amazing service and amazingly fast! Could not get any better!

Love these shoes! Very comfortable, except slightly large in my usual size, but they have great arch support. I've gotten lots of compliments.

My son's KangaRoos came in two days, he loves them! The price was right and it was good to know returns are easy. I'll shop again!

One of my favorite shoes, they are very versatile and they have a pocket! not your every day sneaker.

Love my ROOS! I wear them all the time. I don't really use the pockets but they are just really cool to have. Good price too. I used the free shipping which was supposed to take 5 days but it only took 2. I already want to buy another pair!

I got these. They're really nice. very light and comfortable, pretty much great for anything. there's not a whole lot of room in the pockets but I don't even use them anyways. You could put a small stash in them I suppose. Overall they're awesome.

These shoes came to my door quicker than expected. For the low price, the shoes are pretty comfortable, as far as width and shoe form go. A great look for a shoe that most people don\'t wear and of course I have to give it a plus for the little pouch that come on the side. If they ever wear out, I will for sure be purchasing myself a new pair of these.

I\'ve only had them for a few weeks, but I love these guys (the Roos). Zappos\' customer service was very impressive, as they make it really easy to return\/exchange stuff. I have never bought shoes online before, but I\'ll definitely check with Zappos next time I\'m looking for some more. I will say the Roos don\'t feel very durable, so I\'m erring on the side of \'babying\' them and keeping them out of bad weather and other situations that may accelerate the wear. But they sure are sharp!

I've purchased 4 different color Combat ROOS from Zappos/6pm. They are my favorite shoes. I've been wearing my first pair from Zappos for over 6 years! They usually get noticed from old farts in their 40s saying "I used to wear those" or "I remember when people wore those." Not sure if it's a compliment, but I enjoy them a lot. I really feel like these shoes are "mine" because they're not very popular.

First off, my wife was pleased to find these shoes as she had a pair years ago but just got worn out. We are very pleased with your selection, your customer service and expeditious way you sent them and what a surprise it was. The second pair was air mailed for the price of ground delivery. Thank you.

I am a girl who wears an 11WW shoe, so I bought the men\\\'s 10 in this style.\\r\\n\\r\\nThey are comfortable and stylish. They don\\\'t breathe very well, so I wouldn\\\'t wear them in the middle of a hot summer day.\\r\\n\\r\\nYou can feel where the seams are in the sides of the shoe even through socks, but it is more annoying than painful.\\r\\n\\r\\nI wore them to the state fair the first day I had them and they were comfortable.
