I balked at ordering a man's 7.5 woman's 8.5 thinking I usually take a man's 7 but the fit is exact so do not waver from size chart. I have a B to narrow foot, so these will be too narrow for a wide foot - FYI. The look is so very retro and fun - got the black w/ red. Also the fact that the sole is beige will not show dirt and grass stains as readily as white sole. The heel back is not too high, although from the pix was worried it may be. Love 'em Samba!

Great shoes. They do look a bit narrow but my feet are quite flat and it's still comfortable. The grip on the bottom looks really cool. Absolutely no complaints.

I just ordered these in the black/high energy. It looks orange, kind of neon orange. These kicks are sick. The canvas feels great, and the shoe fits true to size. I dig the gum sole, shouldn't get dirty as fast as the basic white sole on many sneakers. I plan on rocking these hard at AT&T when I see the Giants play. They also fit nicely with pants, pants don't tend to bunch up on top of these like many other sneakers. Definitely recommend these shoes.

I just got these shoes about 2 weeks ago and I absolutely love them. They go with practically any type of pants/shorts. I wear them every day. Even managed to pull them off at a few professional settings. Although there is no arch support, they are still very comfortable. I can see why some may believe they are a bit narrow. Nice to walk in. I feel they fit true to size. I don't regret buying these one bit and for the price? Absolutely perfect!

Very comfortable, was not sure if I would like them, but now I want another pair just to keep before they run out. With the VIP it was awesome, just like shopping at the store without all the hassle.

I debated whether or not I should give this 4 or 5 stars because though it's a great shoe, it's not perfect. Keep in mind that I'm not using this as a soccer shoe. Pros: Adequate sole without extra bulk. Comfortable yet athletically firm. Durable canvas looks great! Cons: I found the laces to be too short. Breathability might be an issue because it lacks vents. White inside will get dirty quickly. Quality of the stripes are very "third-worldy."

Why it is so hard to find a simple all-black sneaker that doesn't look ridiculous eludes me. After striking out at every shoe store at the outlet mall, I tried ordering online for the first time and found these great Sambas on Zappos. Arrived quick, fit well on my narrow feet, and look excellent. Only concerns: (1) rather stiff and need to be broken in, and (2) what is up with the baby laces? I can barely tie a bow they are so short. So needing new laces aside, I am very pleased.

You know sambas. They rock and these are no exception. Actually, until they bring back the Samba K, these are my favorite Samba. Give them some time for break in and you'll wear them for years.

These shoes are comfortable except the bottom of the shoe is very rigid. I feel like I'm clonking around in them. I'm returning them for that reason, and because they look a little too masculine for my taste.

It's not one of Adidas' best shoe (not the worst, either); however, the canvas makes it look fairly cheap and the stitching started to come undone around the outside toe area.

I ordered these shoes based on the high ratings given by others. I ordered a 6.5 (men's). I normally wear a 7.5 in women's. The shoes felt narrow when I first put them on. One reviewer wrote that they need some break in time so that's what I did. After wearing these shoes for a day, walking around (inside) my feet were killing me. I gave my feet a rest and tried these again, this time for 4 hours with some walking. Again my feet were hurting, even after adding inserts for more cushion. I can't return these since I wore them but I cannot wear them. These just didn't work for me. If you order these and they feel snug or "off" out of the box, I suggest returning them.
