Great shoes -
Very light, very comfortable, and very stylish. I'm glad they brought these classics back. Zappos delivered it to me faster than the original shipment date, so I was very happy with the service.

Awesome shoe -
I picked up my original pair in Paris, and could not find them anywhere except here (for a good price). The shoe itself is extremely comfortable. So much so I bought two more pairs from here!
Excellent Customer Service & Shipping too.

Gazelle is similar, but lacking in arch support.

Excellent -
Myself, and many others are fans of the adidas samba, a classic and amazing shoe. However one thing that I find annoying with the samba is the tounge. This keeps the same slick style and functionality of the samba without the large tounge. I love both shoes and recommend them both - samba in black and a spezial in a brighter flashy color like the red.

My spezial shoes -
These shoes are very cool, they well put together, so I know that they are going to be durable. The suede is so soft right out of the box. The more you wear them the better they get. Also, the don't attract dirt, and if they do get a scuff or whatever it just gives the shoes a little character. These are awesome shoes and I would recommend them to anyone espezially soccer players.

A must for any soccer player with appreciation for oldskool -
Fantastic service. Shocked when they came to the door in three days. Otherwise I knew about the shoes as I have played soccer for over 20 years. Otherwise a must for the football fanatic who appreciates the old school. By far one of adidas' best indoor shoes of all time.

Great shoes -
Very comfortable. At first they don't seem to fit well, but they conform to your feet. Only problem is that they are suede and will get dirty, so get a good suede cleaner.

sweet shoes -
My shoes don't fit so well (I accidentally ordered them a half size too large), but they looked way too cool for me to return them, so I wear them anyway. I got the bright red...they're amazing.

I love my adidas Spezials!
These are great shoes. I can wear them for a long time every day and they are still comfortable. They look fantastic and the ventilation is very good. These will last a long time and I will then definitely get another pair!

Great sneakers, exceptional service -
The sneakers are great. Comfortable and stylish. They are a bit more beige colored than they appear in the picture, but I still like them. Zappos.com went out of their way to get them to me as quickly as possible at no extra cost. You gotta love that!

Everyone wants these shoes -
I looked for these in shoes stores in Boston, L.A. and Providence. Nobody had them...now everyone wants to know where I got them! Fit great, look great, and I ordered them on Friday afternoon and had them on my feet Tuesday night. It doesn't get any easier!

Adidas Rock!
I'm a huge fan of adidas shoes. This shoe is comfortable and fits very well. The only downside is that you shouldn't walk through puddles with them. The ventilation holes on the sole let water in.

I feel a half-size too big, but they fit me fine. I got the red ones - they're exactly what I was looking for. Great service from Zappos.com as well - they upgraded to next-day delivery for free.

My adidas -
I love these shoes! I fell in love with them when I saw them on Hilary Swank, and I couldn't be happier with them. Thank you!

Get your kicks -
If you're a fan of the Samba you might dig the Special. It's roughly the same platform, so it fits the same way. The width is great for folks (like me) who find some of the more modern streamlined shoes uncomfortable or funny looking on their feet. Definitely get some waterproofing suede spray, and you're off.

Great shoe -
I love these shoes, but I do something special with them. They don't have an arch support nor much padding in the sole, which I need. I tear out the liner at the bottom, put in a Spenco liner and then a Spenco cross trainer with a heel and arch support on top of that, and make them into the most comfortable shoes in the world. I wear them every day. I wore my first pair for three years everyday before they started looking a little dirty and a ittle rough aroung the edges. but they are still fully functional. They are a great looking shoe.

The joly green giant -
These shoes are great, simple, comfortable and affordable. The green may be hard to match to some outfits but when done right you'll rock these all day long. If you want a shoe that adds simple style to your look without sacrificing comfort then this is the shoe that needs to be on your foot.

Bad ass shoes -
I like these shoes so much I'm wearing my fourth pair. They're comfortable, durable and 'course nice looking. Badass shoes, only wish ADIDAS made a greater variety of colors.

A comfy, good looking shoe. Like all new shoes, it was a bit stiff at first, but . . . NO BLISTERS!

Great looking shoes -
These shoes earn compliments every time I wear them. The suede stuff is super-soft. The traction is great, they're lightweight. They have a bit of a high arch, which I'm not used to in a shoe because I usually wear Vans or Dr. Martens boots, but I'm getting used to it.

I am very satisfied with these sneakers, they fit perfect right out of the box. No complaints, first order and they were at my door much faster than I anticipated.

They really are special -
So far the suede seems not to be wearing too quickly. The color was more purple than I thought, but I'm so pumped about my purple kicks! I'm the coolest kid on the block now. LoL, these shoes run narrow so order a size larger like I did if you don't have narrow feet.

My favorite shoes -
I have an old pair of these (black w/ white stripes) that I have had since 1996. They're beat up but still solid. I recently bought the brown ones with the light blue stripe, and it's great to have a new pair of my favorite shoes. They're so comfortable and look cool. Already had several positive comments about them. Hopefully they'll last as long as the old ones.
