Wow.
I made the order on Saturday night (05/05/07) so I didn't expect the FedEx truck until at least Tuesday if not Wednesday. Well, it's only Monday afternoon (05/07/07) and I'm already wearing them! The service Zappos offers is bar none and these shoes are exactly as I remember them years ago when I used to steal my brother's pair; uber comfy and good looking. =]

I like the simple's O.S Sneaker a lot. This is the second pair that I have bought. I bought the first pair a year and a half ago. I like it well enough to have bought two pair this time. As for the first pair I still wear them around the ranch. There is nothing physically wrong with them they just look sad from all the paint and mud. Love the shoe and I love the Zappos way.

As usual Simple makes a perfect shoe. I've been wearing these for years and have never been let down. Well made, comfortable and good looking. Very smart shoes.

Simple and comfortable -
I've always wanted to by a pair of Simple shoes and I'm glad I finally did. These sneakers are very comfortable and the only negative thing that I can say about them is that I wish they had more cushioning on the soles.

My third pair in ten years. I think that comment speaks for itself.

Nice Sneaker -
I searched for a sneaker that looked kind-of old fashioned in style (canvas). This was the one I settled on. When it arrived, it was just what I was looking for. The sneaker fits the size that I ordered. The back of the sneaker is a little lower than I'm used to but it fits well and feels good too.

Unique retro footwear -
I love these shoes. I'm a rather dull person, so these unique shoes add a touch of flair to my drab wardrobe. When I venture out, no one else has on the same shoes I do, and people rarely have heard of the Simple brand. Comfort wise, they're OK. I have a very narrow foot, so these shoes don't offer much arch support, but for a regular-width foot, I bet they'd be just fine. I got a pair of the cork-soled Simples, too, and they offer a bit more arch support.

Sensible shoes -
They look good, very comfortable, they won't win any performance awards (except for skating), so don't plan on doing any serious sports in them, certainly

Awesome shoe -
I now own four pairs of Simples. They fit great right out of the box and require no break-in period. They last forever except for the flimsy fabric interior lining that tends to wear away in the heel. Other than that they're indestructible.

Simple shoes are always made well and always fit well. So nice to have a company think of comfort first in a shoe.

I have a bulging disc problem in my back and was looking for a good walking shoe with great sole cushioning. This shoe fits the bill: very comfortable while standing or moving slowly as well as walking.

Freaking Love Them!
I love these shoes. I wear them with jeans, khakis, whatever. They are true to size and width, and are SO comfortable. I'm addicted to Simple shoes anyway, but these are the classic pair.

Love these shoes -
I used to wear these all the time, but no one around me sells them anymore. These shoes are really comfortable, and I'll probably get some more now that I found them on Zappos. I got the regular 4-5 day shipping, but they were shipped quicker due to low volume that day.

Very Cool Sneaker -
This is a unique looking sneaker, and is quite comfortable after a short break-in period (shoe trees helped). The green color is a bit more subtle than it appears on line.

Nice shoes, Great service -
Nice shoes, not crazy about all the padding in the collar, but getting used to it. The service Zappos gives is great. Free shipping and free returns. The shoes felt a little small (not certain about my shoe size) and if I bought them at another place I would worry about returning them and they would end up in the closet never being used. But with Zappos, that was never a problem. I'm looking at buying another pair in a different color, but what ever pair of shoes I buy next, I'm sure to check Zappos first.

Great Shoes -
These shoes are very nice-well made-good looking. They fit true to size. They slipped in the heel for a few days, but once they were broken in, that problem stopped.

Happy at last!
I can't wear women's shoes at all. I was devastated when my feet spread and I could no longer wear my OS sneakers. It took me only a couple of years to figure out I should order a larger size. Perfect! They're roomy enough to accommodate Thorlo and other padded socks. Such comfort! Such a great look! I now have them in three colors. Bliss!

Classic -
Gosh I love these shoes. My last pair held up for over 2 years of daily wear. They're comfy from the first day. Unbeatable value, and they look great with everything. Highly recommended. Zappos got them to me quick!

What a shoe -
The best shoe for just kickin' around in. Comfortable, clean, and durable. I have been wearing these for about 5 straight years. They are my main shoe for work, play, everything. I buy a new pair each year and they are an excellent choice. I feel like a big kid when wearing them. They hold up well too. I am a big guy and they last the year. One of the best sneakers on the market.

Same as always -
The first pair of these I owned 10 years ago, they feel just the same today, as they did then. Excellent. I don't think anyone could be disappointed with their comfort, class, and style. They don't take but a day of break-in. Look great in jeans, as well as in a blazer, and they’re just Simple. I hope they keep making them for the decades to come.

Oh happy day!!!!
I have owned many pairs of these over the years, but unfortunately my last pair burned down in a house fire. I have been searching for a new pair for years as they seemed to have disappeared from the face of the earth. As luck would have it, I saw a kid wearing them at a baseball game the other day and I asked him where he purchased the--which led me to this site. I can't wait to receive my new pair. What awesome kicks! Buy something different and happy!

Simply the best -
This is the best sneaker I've ever worn, light weight, comfortable, sturdy and great neutral colors that go with everything. They're a little bit stiff in the beginning but if you're a big guy with larger feet, I'm 6',200 lbs., and a size 12, that's a good thing. I'm on my third pair and I'll keep buying them as long as they make them.
