I LOVE these shoes!! So comfortable and so cute! I have gotten so many compliments on them. A lot of people have also asked me if they are golf shoes (while I am golfing) I don't think they could look any more like golf shoes! I think they run almost a half size small. The other Pumas I have are a 6.5 and I ordered a 7 in these and they fit perfect! They feel very true to width. I love 'em!

These shoes are classic. They are excellently styled football shoes, and I have even skateboarded in them. They do tend to run somewhat small so I got them a half size larger and they feel great. Skateboarding wise, they have excellent grip and do feel the board quite well. The upper is also very durable. I highly recommend these shoes!

The Jack Purcell's arguably look a little goofier than the Chuck Taylors I've worn for years, but I agree with the reviewers who say they are more comfortable. Also, I found my size 11 Purcell's to be the SAME SIZE as my size 11 Chuck Taylors, so if you have Chucks, I'd recommend ordering the same size. (Note, however, that I wear 11.5 in Nike, Saucony, and Adidas; so based on my limited experience, order Converse canvas shoes a half-size down.)

These are stylish and well made shoes. Occasionally I need to get from point A to point B in a hurry and these shoes had no problem with that. I could tell just from the feel and weight that these shoes are quite solid. They can be a bit narrow for some people. My pair is khaki and brown and it goes well with most of what I wear. They can be laid back or even thrown in with less casual clothing (khakis and dress shirt but no tie) to make the set a little less formal without being out of place.

These are great shoes. The arch support is great and they are very comfortable for walking. The only design flaw is the heel, which rubs. However, I found that with the addition of a small gel pad inside the heel (the kind made for dress shoes) this problem is taken care of. I wear these shoes all the time and will consider buying another pair when/if these wear out.

These are cute and comfy shoes, but a word of warning--the tan/gold variety got VERY dirty very fast. This was with normal wear, and I tried really hard not to scuff them up. No amount of suede cleaner could fix the problem, so I had to limit their wear to around the house/walking the dog.

A cool looking shoe, that’s not very comfortable, provides no heel or foot support. Best worn only on padded floor or rugs as well as clean spaces. Not good for walking around dirty cities like NYC.

I bought a pair of Converse low top - white monochrome leather sneakers about 2 months ago. When I received them, they were fine. After wearing the sneakers 2 times (very lightly), I noticed that the side of the sneakers (between the rubber and leather) had started to come off. Now, it has been about 2 months since I had purchased these and had worn them about 10 times, I can no longer wear them because people might think I wear shoes with holes in them which is really the case. I have worn Converse for about 20 years, and this was the first time that I was let down. Maybe I got a bad one, but nevertheless, it was a big letdown and a big waste of money for me.

I got these shoes for my wife because I thought she would like to workout in them. She normally wears an 8.5, but they were a little big so we had to send them back for a size 8. The shoes fit perfectly and they were on my doorstep the next day!

These are not as comfortable as I hoped they would be. I am flat-footed and have a bunion on my left foot, and the low cut of the shoe (which makes them so cute) unfortunately causes chafing on the bunion. For someone with feet in better shape than mine, these might feel more comfortable. (These shoes do have a removable inner sole, but I found even after I inserted my orthotics that the shoes still kept chafing. Plus, after removing the textured inner sole that the shoes came with, the shoes now slipped when I walked.) Even though they’re not the most comfortable shoes I own, I still plan to wear them once in a while (because they’re so darn cute and can be worn with both jeans and summer skirts), but I definitely won’t wear them on days when I know I’ll be walking a lot. Besides their cuteness factor, I also love that these shoes are not made of leather, and that they have outer soles made of recycled car tires (kudos to the Simple shoe company!).

Reviewer:Paul W from Chicago
Overall Rating:4 stars

I have a hard time getting shoes that feel comfortable over long periods of walking or standing still (at a work bench), but the M554 is just about perfect. My feet aren’t especially long, but wider than average. Normally, I wear a 10 - 10.5, but my little toes get pretty sore from rubbing against the outer side of my shoes. My feet slide a little in larger shoes. After hearing that NB shoes run a bit small, I ordered the 11 2E (wide) and that seems to be the correct combination. I do wear insoles for a little extra comfort. The back of the shoe rubs a little on my Achilles tendon, but it’s nothing a band aid won’t fix and that should stop as the shoes wear in a bit. Mine are only a few weeks old so I can’t speak to their durability, but they feel pretty great so far. I’d buy these again.

Sized incorrectly - These shoes are incorrectly sized. I've worn a size 12 men’s for as long as I can remember. The size 12 I received for these shoes are more like a size 14. I had at least an extra inch of space. Otherwise nice looking and relatively comfortable shoes.

The perfect gym tee. Fits great and looks great too. Love it! I'm 34B, normally size 4 in tops and the medium fits perfectly. Snug enough to look cute, but roomy enough to work out.

To begin with - the PUMA flats are really cool shoes. I am 63 years old and although some may consider me "older" I definitely like to be "with it" with my shoes. Having had numerous foot surgeries I am unable to wear any kind of heel so I always look for unusual shoes to dress up my outfits. When I first ordered these shoes, the cute gal with whom I spoke with by phone at Zappos advised me to order half a size smaller than usual. I ended up having to order a whole size smaller. The first couple of days I got a small blister on both feet but after I cut out the PUMA labels everything was fine. I bought two pair - one black and one grey/silver. They look great with everything. I'll be wearing them in Dublin this summer!

I’ve owned the Princess in both black and white. It is a comfortable shoe that is a step below dressy and good for jeans. I recently wore a new pair of Princess by Reebok on my vacation to British Columbia. They are much lighter to pack than my usual heavier walking shoes. They walked me for miles a day all over Whistler, BC. Yahoo for them. I have very arthritic feet and was just delighted at the support and flexibility as well as light weight of these Princess shoes. I’ll buy them again.

Good shoe! Was a great shoe. I bought it during the winter, since I thought the high base would be good in the snow/ice. The salt from sidewalks did make the cork like appearance on the bottom fade a little, almost like it was stained with bleach. I have very large feet (14) and was very surprised when I actually had extra room in the shoe, and they fit perfectly! The shoes were awesome!

Reviewer:Craig Toocheck from Pittsburgh, PA

These shoes do look nice....however there have been a number of issues with them despite the fact that it's been only four months since I got them and I have not put them through a terribly rigorous wearing: First, the "leather" accents (or whatever material) accents smelled quite bad for the first few months (I know this is common with real leather, but it smelled quite like chemicals instead). Second, this material also began fraying (little strings hanging off the edge of the material by the stitching). I try to trim it off but it just frays more! Third, the insole of one shoe came loose and now refused to stay in place, usually ending up riding up my heel as the day goes on. Fourth...I found them to be just plain uncomfortable. Sure, they are fine for sitting around, but not much for walking. Thanks to Zappos, though, for their great customer service and willingness to let me return these!

These shoes are cute but a little tight in the toe box not 100% comfortable but may need a little break in time. I would buy these in a different color they are so cute looking in the red and white.

They got dirty real quick, not like regular white shoe dirty… I mean wearing a white shirt for shoes dirty. It’s a for fun looks shoe and it serves that purpose well, but too wide of a foot can cause pain and no socks might rub on your Achilles.

These shoes were more comfortable than my old worn in Sambas right when I put them on, no wear in period required. They almost have a hint of that athletic shoe 'forward roll' - walking in these somehow felt easier. The rubber heel label on the left shoe fell off after a few days, but I'm crossing my fingers and hoping it was just a fluke and not indicative of the shoe's durability.

I am shocked at how fast you shipped me my order. I went with the free UPS option. My order (of two pair of shoes) was here the next day. Never have I had such great service. Thank You! Pamela
