Customer Reviews Reebok Princess

I have been wearing the Princess for many years. They are comfortable and durable. I needed a new pair and ordered my usual size 7. They were 1/2 inch shorter. Zappos customer service is excellent. Based on reviews, I exchanged them for a 7.5. The 7.5 were too big. I spoke with Zappos and decided to try another size 7, and the fit was perfect. The size 7 that did not fit, had "Ortholite" written under "Reebok" on the insole. My old size 7 Reeboks, the 7.5, and the 7 that fit did not have "Ortholite" written on the insole.

The original Reebok Princess with genuine garment leather material was wonderful. Reebok ruined the sneaker by substituting manmade material.

I love these shoes. Please do not discontinue them or I will have to go barefoot. I have old, odd shaped feet and these are the only shoes that do not hurt. So comfortable and durable I wear them everyday and have for at least 20 years. They feel so good I'm still working at age 73!

So disappointed in this shoe. I bought a wide and it felt too narrow. There was no room in the toe area as my feet felt squeezed from the sides and top.

I used to wear these shoes when I was much younger - back in the late 80s to mid-90s until they were no longer available [before zappos] and I forgot about them completely. I started walking again after having a baby and realized that all the sneakers I had from Nike, Asics, New Balance, Sketchers, etc. [I have a LOT of sneakers!] all hurt my feet when I walked more than 20 minutes. It got me thinking about these Reebok classics and I decided to see what Reebok had available on Zappos. I was elated to see the Reebok Classics were back! Unfortunately, these shoes were not available in my size at the time, so I went with the Reebok Leisure Classics and the pain I had along the outside of both my feet completely went away after having the problem for the last few years. I just checked on these again the other day and realized my size was available again and ordered them immediately. They just arrived, I put them on and sighed in bliss - they are just as comfortable as I remember them being when I used to work retail and was on my feet all day, and later when I moved out on my own to the city [Boston] and walked all day long to and from school, up and down stairs and everywhere in between with absolutely no food, knee, hip or lower back pain. I do dock these in "Style" because they are not the soft leather I remember them being - it feels like a soft man-made material, which I hope doesn't mean they don't breathe. I live in TX now and it's getting warm even in the early morning, so it could potentially be an issue. I also wish they could update the look a bit with some contrasting colors on these solid colored shoes. They used to be the standard work shoe for those who were on their feet everyday, so I understand why they didn't back in the day, but it would be nice if they had ONE option of a black with some white trim vs. solid black or solid white. Regardless of the look, my feet are happy, so I'm happy, and when I'm out walking at 6am nobody is judging my shoes! For reference I have medium-width feet with narrow heels and very high arches and tend to over pronate and these are the best for my feet.
