Bought three pairs for my dad and two uncles. The first time they slipped them on they thought it was tight, but then it fit once they wore it. The shoe was suggested by my brother and all four love them!!

The comfort slipper unmatched -
This shoe/slipper is the most comfortable I have ever worn and what's good about them is you can wear them outside just like a pair of shoes.

This was no where close to my size. I wear a 10 and I couldn't get these half way on to my feet.

I wear a 10 in most shoes. They were to small. Don’t come in half sizes. Tried to order 11 and they were out of stock. Went with similar Osiris shoes in grey and I love them

Great style, but I didn't like the slipping off the heel, or the feel of the arch.

Shoes feel comfortable, but don't stay on my feet.

Great style, but thats all! Fits wide. Sole too stiff and pulls slipper off at heel when walking. Fits small in length.

Not as nice as expected. Not really warm but do work for short trips outside and keeping feet from being to cold. Will look for a second pair that have a little more warmth to them.

I thought these would be a nice slipper but they are not a slipper. They are shoes. They have a hard sole and I did not find them very comfortable. The size also ran small by about one size. I wear an 11 and these felt like 10s. I like the looks of them.

Poor quality. I bought these as an around the house casual shoe/slipper. For that purpose they fit the bill. They're comfortable. easy to slip on, got a little style to them, etc. Overall I was pleased. However, I look down at my feet today to find that the stitching that connect the tongue of the shoe to the side has totally come undone on my right shoe. After less than two months! Heck I don't even know if I've worn these outside! Just around the house at the end of the day and already they're coming apart! Lame! I wouldn't recommend.

I am not super happy about these shoes. They are somewhat bigger than I was expecting and they kind of feel and look more like slippers than shoes, due to the puffiness caused by the style of stitching. This is more apparent in some colors/styles than others.

I have purchased 4 different pair of Globes just for the style and comfort over the past year and a half. I would normally give this shoe 5 Stars, but I have worn these only one day and the stitching on shoes has already come apart. I would exchange them but this was the last pair in my size. First, the side of the left shoe started unraveling and I sewed it back together myself. Then, that same evening, the right shoe started to unravel. Now, I have to sew it up myself the best I can. I couldn't believe it! So, I have to give this shoe 3 Stars instead of 5 because of the poor quality of the stitching by Globe. Globe needs to review the quality of their threads and make sure they stay in place, especially after only one day of wear. This situation is uncommon and ridiculous. Otherwise, I love the shoes.

I bought a pair but am returning them. They are uncomfortably hot for just wearing around the house, for me anyway. Seemed like reasonably nice quality. Most folks seem to love them, though.

I bought 2 pair for my sons for Christmas, one black size 14, and one white size 15,the size 14 were actually a slight bit longer that the 15\'s. My son wears a 13 1/2 and the 14\'s just fit him. My son that wears a 15 couldnt get his foot into the 15\'s. Are these seconds?

The shoe is stylish enough and very comfortable, but the stitching on the first pair that I ordered split after 5 or 6 days of light use, and, after Zappos handled the situation and sent me a new pair, the same exact thing happened to the replacement pair. I don't have fat feet, and I didn't treat the shoes badly, the stitching just appears to be faulty on some of them. On the other hand, the DC Villain offers essentially the same shoe, and I've beat up my DC Villains in the past year and a half and I've never had a problem with them.

These are great shoes--IF you can get them to fit, that is. Depending on the brand, sometimes I wear a 13 and sometimes I wear a 14. Based on another review that said these run large, I purchased size 13. But the 13's were so short that I couldn't even stand up in them without hurting my toes. I ordered size 14 after that, and they are so big that I can hardly keep them on as I walk! I feel like a little kid wearing his father's shoes. If these shoes only fit, they'd be fabulous. Sizing is very odd, though.

Ok, I have had my eyes on these loafers for a long time, and even bought a pair for a friend of mine a couple years back. Well, I just got mine today, and I am EXTREMELY disappointed. They are just too small. I wear a 15 (the largest size these come in) and it's WAY too small! Opening the box I knew they weren't going to work, but I had gone this far; I needed to at least try. After almost breaking my finger trying to get them on, they went back into the box. So heads up, these shoes run a size smaller.

I ordered 2 pairs of these shoes for my son. They look terrific and appeared to be very comfortable. Unfortunately the sizing seemed a little odd. My son normally wears an 11 and is an easy fit. When the 11 arrived, they were huge! More like a 12. So I ordered a 10. When they arrived, they were very small and narrow, my daughter wears a size 9 in womens and they fit her. The shoe seems to be good quality and looked really comfy with a good sole. They also seemed to have a decent amount of support. Just wished they fit a little better. Fortunately ordering with Zappos makes returns easy.

Not Really Slippers -
I bought these because they were ranked highest in the slipper category by popularity. Unfortunately I don't think these are really slippers. The sole is very heavy and thick. The sides and uppers are rigid. They felt more like casual shoes than easy wearing slippers that I would wear constantly around the house.

Too small -
I appreciated everything about the shoe... but it’s just about half an inch too small in the size 15... They should increase the size of the 15's about a half an inch.

Globe Castro -
Cool look. Soft inside, but is too small. At least a full size too small. I actually think that the manufacturer mis-labeled. I bought both a 13 and a 14 and they are exactly the same size.

Castros are CLASSIC -
The Globe Castros are an instant classic as far as design goes. The shoe provides a new twist to the average slip on shoe produced by other shoe companies. Aside from the unique, but attractive design, the shoe's sizing seems to be a problem. A half size smaller than what is supposed to be. I wear a 12, but the 12 felt a half size too small. Aside from the size, the durability of the shoe is a little questionable. The sole wears fast and the top leather cracks fast.

Great looking shoe for a certain type of person.
These things are like slippers to me. I also wish they came in half sizes. I believe the brand is a skater shoe company, so they probably are supposed to be floppin' around on me. By the way, Zappos.com is the best company around these days! No joke.

Globe Castro Slipper -
While we chose this slipper for it's rubber sole, it does not run true to size. The 15's we ordered are more like a 13 in size. The box they came in however, is pretty cool; styled like a cigar box.
