I normally wear a size 8, so I ordered an 8. With socks, the 8 was a little short. So I am returning for an 8½. The width was fine, but I have narrow feet. The shoes are comfortable and the fabric was soft. I like the old-fashioned style and since I do not intend to wear these for athletic activities, I do not need the support and cushioning of bulkier shoes.

I was hesitant to order these after reading so many reviews about how they had changed over the years. I am so glad I ordered them anyway! I love these shoes! They are slightly different from the '80s version in that they don't have terry cloth around the heel (the kids version appears to have it though). The other difference is that they seem more padded on the footbed. I remember them being hard on the foot before and these new ones are super comfy all day- very cushy for a flat shoe. I did order a half size bigger than my normal shoe size, but I do that with all my sneakers. They are awfully cute too - much girlier than Converse.

I am a product of the 80's and Tretorns, Davey's, and Dolphin shorts all take me back. This shoe is fantastic. It fits true to size and conforms to my feet. I have wide flat feet but with these shoes I feel like I have all the support I need. They are great.

This style Tretorn are what I have worn for the past 5-6 years. I am not very athletic so I enjoy the light weight comfortable fit of this shoe. It is not a proper choice if you intend it for sports, but very nice to wear walking on vacation.

I bought a pair of shoes; well, I ordered the wrong size. I called them and they sent me my size the very next day and gave me a return label to send the others back. That was awesome. Shop with them. It's great and if you happen to get the wrong thing they will fix it immediately. I will shop again.

Love these shoes! Comfy and remind me of my days as a kid, without looking dorky or too trendy.

I love these "old school" tennis shoes. I used to wear these years ago, and I am glad to see they are back. Comfy and cute!

This is a great little every day shoe. Comfortable, true to size fit and not outrageously expensive. I always have a pair in my closet.

Tretorn tennies are the most comfortable shoes ever invented. I've enjoyed them for years. They are made of lightweight canvas that washes well in the machine, wears well and feels great. I wear them all summer especially when sandals aren't enough. Love 'em forever.

Nike's are good too, particularly for walking and running.

Tretorn's were all the rage when I was in high-school, so it was neat that I could still buy these. They aren't as thick and heavy as I remember them, but I still love them. They came two days after I ordered them. Zappos is absolutely great to deal with!

I have worn Tretorn tennis shoes for 30 years and have tried the big names and usually end up giving them away before they get soiled! Love my Tretorn's!

Love these shoes! A flash back to my past. I sprayed them with ScotchGard before I wore them the first time and now they are very easy to clean. I think they may run a little on the small side but after a few wearings they feel perfect.

I agree with other reviews that this shoe appears to be constructed differently than the shoe of the 80s; however, I find them as comfortable as the originals and possibly a little lighter weight. This is still a great shoe despite the tweaks that have been made over time. Comfortable, breathable and stylish!

The only sneaker I can wear and be comfortable. I love my sneakers. When they are old and dirty I wear them out in the garden.

A light weight and ultra comfortable shoe. I have loved this style for decades but have had a hard time finding it in the stores. I used the sizing chart and got a perfect fit.

First of all, I can't say enough good things about how fast Zappos get your stuff to you! The Tretorn upper part is not as cushy as it was in the 80's, but I felt the bottom offered more support than I expected after reading other reviews. These are not the same Tretorns we wore in the 80's, but they are still great shoes.
