I love these shoes. The Simple Brand is going out of business and Zappos.com is the only place to get them now. Hurry and get yours before they sell out.

These are great shoes. The size was correct, and they feel great. These are my "blue suede shoes" for stage work at the weekly blues jam. They're comfy and fun.

Sizing is accurate, and they arrived as pictured. I seem to remember these shoes being more comfortable years ago, now they seem to be a bit lacking in the heel. I definitely won't be wearing them to work.

My husband has worn these for years. He is on his 3rd or 4th pair. They wear well, are sturdy and fit true to size. Very good for a wide forefoot.

This is a very special shoe. It's super comfortable, durable and has a classic look. It's all I want to wear anymore. It does run a little large and since I'm between sizes I went with the smaller. It stretched to fit perfectly despite my very wide feet.

About Simple
When is enough really enough? When can we tweak the definition of wealth and accumulate some positive karma? Can't we just trade down for once? What's the solution to this mess?
It's Simple. It starts with Who They Are!
With all the over-built, over-hyped products out there, it's pretty hard to find sustainable shoes that you can live with. So they started Simple, your stereotypical, anti-stereotype brand offering good shoes and a big dose of reality.
About a gazillion pairs later... give or take a few... they've managed to learn a few things. Well, actually a lot of things. And none more important than this: HOW they make their shoes is just as important as WHY they make them. That means finding more sustainable ways of doing business so they can make a gazillion more!
Which pretty much is where they are today... at the crossroads of here and now, aware of their responsibility to the planet while trying to pay the bills; the nice little shoe company getting in touch with its inner hippie
Their Process.
Sometimes, the progress is notable while at other times the improvements are harder to come by. The important thing is Simple is committed to making 100% sustainable products. Finding materials and processes that make products sustainable is a method they call Green Toe. It isn't a magic formula, or a cure. It's a compass that points to a bright green future.
Progress in Green Toe is measured with a scale called "good, better, best." The best category represents Simple's most sustainable shoes and bags and sets the bar for the rest of the line. Moving forward, these same innovative materials and constructions will be found in the good and better categories, raising the bar for the best products. Pretty nifty, huh?
If you're ready to take a stand against the shenanigans of excess, then Simple has a new equation to live by: Less is More.
Keep it real. Keep it Simple®.

Bought these for my son. He loves Simple shoes, and now that Simple is going out of business Zappos was the only place to get them.

These are classics and like most classics they only get better with age. I have owned several pairs of Simples over the past 20 years and I keep coming back to them.

These shoes are comfortable, understated, and very solidly made. They are extremely versatile and impervious to all weather conditions. I recommend them to anyone who wishes to those who want a very stylish shoe that is free of the increasingly brainless sneaker-freaker (and freakish) design.

I get lots of compliments on these shoes. They're very comfortable and have worn well. I'm ordering a second pair in another color.

These shoes are great. The heel rubbed for a few days, but they have broken-in nicely. They were comfortable out of the box and just get more and more comfortable. The toe box has plenty of room, and they seem to do well with moisture. My feet haven't been excessively sweaty when I take the shoes off. The sole has excellent grip and seems very durable. I got the blue color and they look great with jeans, though the light portions such as the laces are a more natural, tan color than they are white, so be aware of that. I can't attest to the durability yet, but they seem really well made and I think they will last a long time. Overall, a great shoe if you are into the classic, simple styling and enjoy comfortable shoes!

I've been wearing this style shoe almost daily now for the past three years. These babies are comfy and they look fresh. I used to buy these at Sportmart until those guys went out of business and now I just ordered my 3rd or 4th pair from Zappos. I heart them.

I'm wearing them now and they feel great! They're well padded. I barely feel them on my long walks and have a sturdy sole that really grips the ground and contours well to my foot. I have no complaints whatsoever and, as always, Zappos was awesome.

I really love these shoes! I had some in high school and decided to try them as an adult. They look cool with jeans or shorts. I'm considering the green and the black as well. I wouldn't want to wear them for sports because they would be a little stiff, but for casual shoes they're great! Definitely worth it and the company strives to be eco friendly.

These shoes are really comfortable. My foot is a little wide, and usually it takes me a while to break shoes in, but these have felt great since I first tried them on.

I had a pair of these shoes a few years ago and absolutely loved them. Somewhere, they got lost along the way. I was looking for a pair of shoes that was a bit thicker than my Vans Authentics, but not quite as beefy as the New Balances that I had. I found the Simple Old School Sneakers and instantly nostalgia'd. I bought a pair the next day. These shoes do not squeak like other people say, and they are going about 2 months strong. A lot of people say this has moderate arch support, that's probably a good thing since my foot is as flat as can be. I have no complaints about these shoes whatsoever. Also, I found out that these shoes are also worn by Larry David from Curb Your Enthusiasm. I would like to buy a pair of Simple Gummies soon.
