Customer Reviews Circa Lopez 50

Ok - These shoes are good for learning new flip tricks, but not when hitting anything above 3ft cause they only have EVA foam in the back instead of the front. So when u fall ur feet kill. I had to stop using them to kick flip and indy off picnic tables. The toe ripped the first time I skated in them and the sole fell out in a week. Overall they're horrible.

The tongue is way to thick. I have a slim foot and I can barely stand to wear these due to them being so tight. And yes, I have loosened the laces. Not even going all the way up. Bottom line, they look cool, but feel like crap. Unless you like your toes to start to go numb. I would return them, but I have worn them thinking I could break them in.

Worst pair of shoes I've ever owned. They only lasted 2months of regular wear.

Junk Shoes - I had these shoes for 2 weeks and they started to fall apart. The canvas came unglued from the rubber trim and then the sole came off. I had to glue it back together. This happened on both shoes, less on the one than the other. I called Circa, but no one would talk to me, and they didn't return my calls. I called Zappos and they offered to exchange them for me. I traded them in for another Circa style that was just as bad.

Would not recommend these shoes - I purchased the black and pink canvas Circa Lopez 50 at the end of August 2006 for my 13 y/o son. After just a few weeks, the shoes looked very worn out, frayed and faded; not necessarily a bad thing for a 13 y/o, but I was disappointed that they looked "years" old rather than "weeks old." And after only 2 months of wear, the shoes have literally fallen apart. The upper has separated from the sole, from the toe to the middle of the foot. Also, what appears to be a lining fabric between the upper and the sole has a huge tear in it. My son's foot just flopped right out of the shoe. I have 3 teenage boys, and we have purchased dozens of pairs of skate shoes; I would not recommend these shoes for any reason, and most definitely not for anyone who skates.

I previously gave these a great review, but after less than three months, both mine and my son's sneakers are falling apart. The rubber sole separated from the front of the shoes and almost came completely off of one of his shoes. I have worn mine maybe a dozen times and it is happening to them, so it is not from rough wear. I also have the women's Lopez 50 and they are a much better shoe. I have been wearing them for months, almost every day, and they are really durable. Other circa styles seem to hold up much better, too. Maybe there was a defective batch of these, because there seem to be a lot of reviews of these falling apart. Zappos made all of the returns easy and painless, and is still my favorite place for shoes!

I used to only buy Vans but lately their quality has gone way down. I picked up these shoes hoping to find a good replacement. These shoes remind me of how skate shoes should feel very comfortable and a great fit according to size. If I had one complaint it would be that they get a bit narrow in the toe area on the sides (I have got big toes). But I am sure that once I break them in that will go away.

These are excellent shoes if you're looking for just some basic, black, comfortable shoes for wearing around town. They look good with jeans and shorts. I don't skate in them, but they are great for comfort, walking, and bike riding around town. Too hard to find basic black shoes sometimes.

Not into skater shoes, But I have to say for a person who has slightly wide feet its a perfect fit. A good looking shoe as well. I even bought the white ones. Thumbs up.

These are classic skateboard shoes! I think it is easy to tell that a world class professional designed these shoes! I wear all white C1rca and these shoes have a perforated upper that keeps my feet cooler and drier than most shoes including the same model without the perforations. The constructions is out of this world. This shoe provides structure to hold your feet in the shoe while you work the board like a job. The sole is amazing! It seems to be one with the deck and releases when necessary and grips when it is supposed to. These shoes seem to make my skills move up a notch. They come with white laces and also black laces. By far, the best real skateboard shoe made!

I wasn't sure if it was a trusted site but I gave it the benefit of the doubt & it turned out to be legit. Fast shipping & only place I found these shoes in particular. Great place to shop from.

Similar in style and comfort to the old Airwalks from the '90s. No arch support with the completely flat bottoms but I have flat feet. Very squishy tongue like slippers. So far they are holding up very well. I owned some Circas before and I like having another choice since I have some Vans too.

Authentic. If bought before, expect same thing. I love them. This is the 5th pair I've had of different colors.

Great sneakers and excellent service from Zappos. These are so comfortable and true to size. This is my second pair actually.

I finally got this elusive pair. As with any new pair of shoes you gotta break them in. before then it felt a little narrow the length was perfect. great for work and casual!

I always try to have a simple looking pair of sneakers like these. Tony Hawk, Nike and Vans but the Circa Lopez 50 are the coolest so far. They even came with an extra pair of laces.

AL50's are the best! I've owned several pairs in many different colors. I will keep on buying them as long as they still make them.

Bought these for my husband's birthday present. He loved them. Simple, true to fit and easy to clean. He had these once before and they lasted a really long time!

Excellent shoe! AFTER: I changed the shoe laces to black ones. (The ones they provide are too long.) and I replaced the insert with some hiking inserts. But after they broke in they are some awesome kicks. But they came two days after I ordered them.

I wear these shoes every day and I haven't had any problems. They don't have very good arch support, but they are comfortable and well made.

Nice looking shoe, very comfortable. Didn't need to be broken in. The picture doesn't do the shoe justice.
