Customer Reviews Reebok Princess

These very lightweight, low-cut black Reebok athletic shoes in size 7.5W (bought for workout classes), fit snugly (worn with very thin socks), but seemed comfortable enough at first. But after just sitting for a while during a phone call, my feet actually hurt and I couldn't wait to remove the sneakers, but found them hard to unlace. I like the overall style, but the tongue seems to extend much farther up the top of the foot, which, to me, negates the idea of a low-cut shoe. The footbed cushion is removable, and I tried on the shoes without the liners (still wearing the thin socks), but there was no noticeable difference in comfort. I also found that these shoes were difficult to lace up, as there are no eyelets, just holes. These shoes are just too uncomfortable to keep.

So the top critical reviewer is right. I thought I would take a chance, but if I had read the description instead of jumping in to place my order, I would have read that the upper is not real leather and the terry interior is rather thin. I'm going to see if leather is available locally (it's also true - my old ones were made in Cambodia, and the ones I just received were made in Vietnam. If I cannot get leather locally, I guess I'll have to keep these. Makes me very sad! And, for some reason I cannot reduce the number of stars under comfort. I would give it a 2 star because my feet will sweat in these.

I have bought this syle of Reeboks for decades. I thought that the last pair I got were a bit tight, but attributed that to just new shoe fit. Well, they have never stretched at all. They are painful across the toe. Then I went on line to order a white pair, and found the long critical review. What on earth! I got out my painful shoes and had a good look. Yes, the inside is NOT terry cloth. I have no idea if the uppers are leather or not. The toe box is smaller, as I experienced already. It is too late to send them back, as I have worn them outside. I keep going back to my old ones for comfort, but they are wearing out - that's why I purchased new ones, Reebok, hello! So, I am off on a mission to find a nice, light weight sport shoe that is well made, fits, and can be worn on different occasions. The Princess used to fit that bill. I am sincerely shocked that a company would just change how they make a shoe and not tell anyone. It really is false advertising, as the other review states. I am giving the shoe a 1 star, because they are absolutely unwearable. I feel stupid for not recognizing this the moment I got them, instead of thinking they were just needing a breaking in period. Buyers beware!!!

This shoe is now synthetic, the arch support is gone, and the padded insole is, too. Quality control at Reebok has gotten sloppy in order to save some bucks and pull the wool over customers' eyes. Shame on you, Reebok, for churning out such a cheap, poorly constructed shoe after all the years of quality! Booooo! I'm off to check out the Sketchers.

I have been buying this shoe for years. Now Reebok has discontinued this style so was pleased to see Zappos was carrying it. Upon receipt, however, it is not the original Princess style but some sleazy version of it. I was very disappointed.

Fit snug and I went a size up

This shoe has been my go to shoe for years. I am delighted to get a new pair..The old ones get recycled for working around the house, yard and garage. Forget the "princess" name, It's a supportive, durable, shoe...Thanks to Zappos for carrying it.

Ordered 1/2 size wider for a toe problem on one foot. Heels feel a little lose, but toes feeling better. Nothing wrong with the shoe. Have been ordering this style for years and will continue to order them barring any significant changes by Reebok. Zappos is a great company to work with. They get it done and product ordered has never been an issue. Competitively priced and no charge shipping will keep me as a customer. Well done to both Reebok and Zappos.

I bought these shoes for my mom. They are the only ones she wears for work as a waitress. But this time I managed to order first the wrong size and then in the wrong fit. The first pair I returned but the second my mom wore before the she figured out it was the wrong fit. I called zappos customer service line and the women I spoke to was excellent in resolving the issue. She was very pleasant to speak to and made sure I knew exactly what our next steps were.

Wholly inaccurate as to size and width.

Very comfortable for a light shoe. I bought one pair in white for work, and a pair in black for casual use. When the shoes arrived, they looked narrow for the wide I ordered - but they fit fine. I am actually a C width, so if you are a D the W may not be wide enough. The shoes are very comfortable on - the leather is soft, and there is plenty of cushion under your feet for a long day's work. I will certainly buy this style again when the ones I have wear out.

Love this shoe. It is trim and does not look clunky like most sneakers or athletic shoes do. I hope Reebok keeps this shoe in its line forever. I've had the same shoes many times before and will buy them again in the future. Also, I want to thank Zappos for the fast delivery. I got my shoes much faster than I expected to. That is so much better than waiting for many days for a delivery. It's nice to order something and get it in two or three days even with standard shipping.

I was so excited to be able to order some shoes for my, mom. The shoe got shipped to my Mom's house, she liked that, but size 6 wide didn't fit, still way to narrow in the front. Will try again.

I'm required to wear black polishable shoes with a non-skid sole to work, and these fit the bill. Very comfortable and not too expensive. Reeboks fit my feet well.

Well the Reebok I brought were for my daugther away at school. She like them so much I will be getting me a pair as soon as I can. I just hope they are carry in a 11 wide size.

I am very happy with the shoes that I ordered, the fit is great and they are so comfortable. I have been wearing these shoes for years and I just keep buying new ones when they eventually wear out. I am a fan for life!

I first bought the Lifestyle Princess Reebok back in 2000 and then walked all over Russia, the Ukraine and parts of Germany. I continued to wear them for years. Then I bought another pair to go on a trip to England and Israel. I gave them to some Israeli people who were so thrilled! Now I have 2 new pairs of these Princess that I hope will take me to other countries and adventures! Thanks so much for an incredibly comfortable and affordable shoe.

Reebok Princess are the good old standbys. They are lightweight and comfortable for travel, yet structured enough for workouts.

This is my second experience with Zappos and I was not disappointed this time either. I will be doing my shoe shopping here from now on. Thanks, Zappos!

These shoes are great. I have a narrow heel and instep, and the Reebok Princess style allows me to pull up the laces tight enough so that my foot doesn't wobble when I walk of jog. I just wish the shoelaces were shorter, so that I wouldn't have to double-knot them to keep from tripping on them.

These are fabulous, simple sneakers with comfort, style and function. Lovely cushioning, and they work as well in the gym as in the city streets. Zappos is the most fabulous site - ever helpful and always comes through. I will only order from Zappos.

These are super comfy sneakers. I have them in colors black and white and couldn't live without them.

I work as a nurse and prefer these shoes by far to the standard nurses shoe sold in the uniform stores.

Shoes arrived in top notch condition, slightly ahead of schedule and were exactly what I ordered. I am a happy camper.
