Customer Reviews Tretorn Nylite Canvas

Great Sneaker - Tretorn sneakers are terrific. I'm glad that I can finally get them. They look, feel and wear great. I had ordered them from you before and had to return them because they were too tight. This time they were perfect

Great Shoes - I can't find these in stores so I was thrilled to see them on Zappos. They are the only shoes I can take right out of the box and slap on my (short, wide, hard to fit) feet and not suffer during the break in period. My feet are so wide I have to go up half a size but they are the most comfy sneaks ever.

CLASSIC - I wore this same shoe years and years ago. I love them. I had forgotten all about them until I was looking at a catalog and went straight to Zappos to order them. I would love to have all colors. They look great and feel wonderful. The cloth shoes wash up great!

Solid shoe - I got a pair of Tretorn Gullwings in 1975 -- and they only expired last year. Sturdy, well-constructed shoes with better support than the 70s versions. Probably better for narrower feet (mine are wide: the fabric body Tretorns are find, suede are a little tight).

Great shoes - These shoes were a gift to a friend. She and I grew up wearing these and both loved them as kids. We work in a younger environment and wonder why the shoes have not made a come back? She loves the shoes as do I and hope they make a come back soon.

Great classic shoe that is finally available again. And they are as comfortable as they were 20 years ago when I was a teen. It's fun to have them back in the closet!

Just like I remembered them! I love these shoes! Very comfortable; the first shoes athletic or otherwise that didn't give me blisters the first time I wore them! I have very flat feet and have a hard time finding comfy shoes. I think I'll order another pair . . .

Tretorn Hooray - Love the shoe, love the speed of delivery, ease of purchase

Loved them!!! These are the most comfortable shoes I own. I used to buy them in the past and then had a hard time finding them. I was happy to that Zappos.com started carrying Tretorn’s. I feel like myself again with these shoes on.

Tretorn’s--Perfect - Comfortable, classic, clean. Looks good on any age, any time of the year. The perfect tennis shoe.

TRETORN'S - There is no athletic shoe for women like Tretorn's. I have worn them for years because of the fit and their looks.

My old friend has returned!! For a long time I wore the canvas Tretorn and loved them----but-----for a long time I could not find them in the stores. Finally I asked my daughter in Atlanta if she was still wearing the disreputable canvas Tretorn’s she had and she said "No, I got new ones" so that is when I found out about Zappos. I have two pairs of leather ones, but love the canvas. The arch fits beautifully, but the tongue needs to be about 3/4 inch longer. I am so delighted to have them and thank you for the free shipping and prompt delivery.

Classics, love them! I have always thought Tretorns run a little long, so going down 1/2 a size is a good idea. But I love these shoes!

My Tretorns - My Tretorn Nylite canvas sneakers are the best shoes I have ever owned. I buy them all the time in assorted colors. They are my choice for all my summer casual wear. I wash them in the washing machine and hang them to dry. They always look fresh, new & clean.

Love them! I loved these shoes 20 years ago and am thrilled to own a pair again! They are so comfortable, they are like wearing slippers. They also look very cute--with shorts, capri's or jeans. They look clean cut and "crisp".

A Satisfied Customer! This is the 2nd time that I have ordered from Zappos.com and have been very pleased both times with the shoe and with the prompt service.

Tretorn gull wing shoes - I was sent exactly what I ordered. The shipping time was great. The only problem is they do not come in wide widths and that is what I need, so I will be giving them away. I used to buy Tretorns at a shoe store that no longer carries them, but they had them in wide widths. If you ever start making them in wide widths again let me know. Thank You

Tretorns revisited - I have been searching for Tretorns for about two years- I was so excited to find them and they are just as I remember (except the inside is the same color as the gull wing- it used to be white). These shoes take me back to eighth grade and I love it!!

Pleased in Pennsylvania - I recently purchased a pair of Tretorn Tennis Shoes for a friend for their birthday. My friend was extremely pleased with the gift stating that the tennis shoe was made with quality materials and also offered a great comfort. I would highly recommend purchasing a pair of Tretorn Shoes for family members and/or friends.

Just like the good old days. These are the shoes my mom wouldn't buy me in the '70s - finally I've got them! They're comfy and have more support than Keds, but still not a lot. Definitely canvas-color, not bleached bright white. They're lightweight and really hug your foot.

Very cute shoe and comfy. As everyone else has said, not the same as years ago but still very preppy and comfortable. Ran true to size for me.

I wore Tretorn's in high school and college. Always a classic shoe. Looks better than a regular sneaker. Noticed the shoe laces aren't as beefy as they once were, tho they are fine. My kids like some styles of Tretorn's now. They say they are cool and just a little different.

Runs small, otherwise fine sneakers - I had heard that Tretorns were now running small, so I ordered a 9B. I used to get them in 8 1/2 B. The 9 is about 1/2" shorter and narrower than my old 8 1/2s. They just barely fit. Otherwise, it is the same great Tretorn sneaker.

This is another one of those sneakers or shoes that look nice in a smaller size. I liked the fact that they were very light, and canvas...but in my size of 9.5, they looked really chunky and cumbersome. There is barely any arch support, and if you have a large, semi-wide foot like I do...it tends to spill over on the sides...and it just looks bad because there is not much support on the sides. I unfortunately had to return them.
