Customer Reviews adidas Originals Rod Laver

All mine - Whatever you do don't buy these, they are all mine. I swear, they do not have the softest soles I’ve ever felt, and they do not look super sweet with jeans, stay away!!!!!!

Rod Laver - Look & fit great. No break in time. Used to wear them in the 80's, still great.

Paint chipped - I loved these shoes when I fist got them, but after awhile, I noticed the paint started to chip off, and that doesn’t look very good. But other then that, these were cute and comfortable, and I put them in the washing machine when they got dirty!

Clean and green - I recently received 3 new pairs of shoes, and I must say...these are pretty nasty ...comfortable, slick, wish you carried different colored laces though...I’ve been on the hunt for green laces to put on these bad boys as an accent. Thanks...D

RL's Dominate - The Adidas Rod Laver is matchless. It is the best shoe mankind has ever created or ever will create. It may in fact be the best creation of all human art.

I have somewhat wide feet, but I bought this shoe because another reviewer claimed that it fit a wide foot. The shoe was long enough, but it was tight on the sides. If it was any thinner, it would be an ice-skate. I recommend looking at the POV of the shoes sole; you will really see how narrow these shoes are.

When I received the shoe there was a scuff mark on the toe in green. However, overall the product was good.

I love these shoes! I work on my feet in a retail store and these shoes are great for standing long hours!

Very comfortable and nice looking shoe. I'm very pleased.

Awesome shoe - Awesome shoe, 3rd pair I have bought. They are great for foot bag, but are marking and get dirty quickly- as with all white shoes

Awesome retro - The perfect shoes when you wear casual pants, jeans or shorts. Nothing compares, maybe other Adidas retro tennis, but the color combination of these shoes are awesome.

CUTE!! Love it. Old school style.

Awesome shoes- These shoes are a lot more comfortable than I thought they would be. Usually these kinds of shoes aren't really good for walking, but I wore these on vacation recently and walked several miles each day in them with no problems. I also like that they look good with just about any casual clothing- jeans, khakis or shorts. Another thing that is nice about these is that not every twenty-something hipster is wearing these. For people who like their white shoes to stay white, be aware that the suede part on the toe gets dirty really easily and really fast.

This is your classic, white tennis shoe. And with the half sizes you can get a real good fit. I have always had problems with a wide foot size but the medium Adidas are always wide enough. These are classic.

Fits Like A Glove! Lightweight, good arch support and nice, classic styling. I love these shoes and wear them for playing tennis and just walking around.

The Original Tennis Shoe- My grandpa and my dad were both tennis players and I remember them both wearing these tennis shoes when I was a kid. Now my little brother is on his HS tennis team, and when we saw that they started making the Rod Laver tennis shoe again, we had to get it for him. He loved it SOOO much that he wants another pair, and so did both my dad and my grandpa! I hope they don't discontinue it again!!

sweet hacky sac shoe - This shoe is the sweetest shoe for hacky sac. It's comfortable and it is flat on all sides, very light.

Rod laver - The rod laver is an all around great shoe. The shoe is very light and breaths well. The only problems I have ever had with the Rod Laver tennis shoe is its lack of arch support in the sole, but this problem can be fixed by replacing the already existing insole with a better quality insole.

Mike's musings - Have been wearing this shoe for more than twenty years. Looks much better than did earlier. Used to wear a 10 1/2, but sizes have gotten a little tight and now at a 12.

Nothing Beats A Classic - It's getting harder & harder to find a decent looking pair of sneakers nowadays. Something without all that fancy air cusioning/shock absorption or crazy colors. You know, a pair of sneakers with good old fashion laces as opposed to elastic closures or zippers. You'll also see a lot of new sneakers styled like sneakers from 20 or 30 years ago [like the Reebok G-Unit & S. Carter which my sneakers have been mistaken for buy some of my younger family members]. So I figured why get a remake when the original got the job done. Hence I have just received my second pair of Rod Laver Adidas, the first being bought over a year ago [black/white preforated leather]. I was actually looking for a pair exactly like the 1st but came across these & figured what the hell. They are just as comfortable as the original & it looks like with the canvas like upper it may fair better than the leather pair I have [which is still going strong btw as my daily walker]. All in all a great shoe that I'm seriously considering buying a second pair of just to keep for when the first ones get worn out.

Love the shoes. Love the colors. Comfortable for going out, but I wouldn't wear them all day every day. My only disappointment is that the suede on the toes gets very dirty very quickly. These must be worn with extreme care and cleaned regularly. I would have preferred a more easily cleanable material.

Nicely made sneaker, a plain shoe but it works. The fit real well and a pretty comfortable. The one thing wrong with them is that the laces are entirely to short, I can't even tie a proper set of rabbit ears with them--I can only tie off one ear!(loop)
