I wore similar Adidas shoes in high school. At the time, they were the most comfortable pair of shoes that I owned. 36 years later, they are still great shoes, but I probably should have opted for a wider width. They are comfortable enough, but I think they would feel better if they were wider. My mistake, I cannot fault the shoes, just the wearer.

Love these shoes!!! Reminds me of younger days. And, of course, VIP Zappos had them to me in one day. Love Zappos and their amazing customer service.

There's not too much more to say about these - classic all around cool - if you got the mojo to rock 'em!

The tongue is really stiff and seemed like it would rub so I returned them. Really good looking shoes, though.

The order arrived very quickly. The packaging was sturdy. The shoes were in excellent condition, as expected, and the fit was accurate.

I found this shoe to be slightly, very slightly larger than size because it is a man's 4 and woman's 5, it's kind of a unisex size. I am a true woman's size 5 so this shoe did run a little big...but it is still absolutely wearable and very comfy! I would recommend this shoe.

Wore these throughout college in the 70s - still the same and great fit, comfortable. A little issue with left heal inside side padding being miss-shaped but great to wear still. Great causal shoe and no more wearing old replaced running/gym shoes.

These shoes are gorgeous! Bought them for my 14-year old son and he's loving them! He wears them almost every day. They are comfy, trendy and look great with any outfit! We got them in 12 since Adidas tend to run a bit smaller but 11.5 would have been perfect. We decided to keep them because he will outgrow them soon anyway. We recommend these shoes!

This is a great looking shoe and comfortable. The only problem is my size was sold out, so I thought I could go one size down like I have in the past with other shoes, but these shoes actually run a little small, so I have to return them. Too bad the half size up from mine is sold out too. :(

Nice comfortable fit. Runs a bit narrow but makes up for it in style. Can't go wrong with classics.

Am I the only one that gets the squeak?!? I got a pair of these once. The tongue is made of some sort of plastic material, and it rubs up against the part with the lace holes. They squeak with every movement. I thought they would break in and stop squeaking, but they squeaked and squeaked until they died. I still wore them when they were done, they are super comfortable, I just cannot stand that squeak. Maybe I just got a weird pair, because I am not seeing anyone else complaining. My pops said he rocked several pairs growing up. When it comes to Adidas, I am rocking Campus IIs and Campus IIs only. The Gazelles are comfortable and they look good though. But the Campus IIs are similar looking and have better arch support.

These are a back up pair I purchased at the same time as some Cole Haans I needed for work. These were perfect and comfy but, haven't hit the ground yet outside. No issues. Although the Cole Haans that arrived had to be returned and appeared to have been used the stitching had come out of the side and they were boxed and shipped defective. The return was easy for those but, I was disappointed because I had intended to wear them that week.

These are great look, and great fitting shoes! I cannot wait to get some more in other cool colors! They are great with jeans or shorts!

Love these sneakers! Good medium width, my orthotic inserts fit well. Could use more rigid sidewalls, but that's just the style of this shoe.

Classic design... Been wearing Gazelles since I was knee high to a grass hopper. Thanks to Adidas for still making these...

Excellent shoe and, as usual, superior service from Zappos! The shoe looks great, especially with jeans. Buy a half size up. Shoe runs slightly small. I wear an 11 but in this shoe, I wear 11 1/2.

They run a little small and narrow. They stretched out a little for me. Great look though.

I haven't worn any other shoe for the last 4 years. They're comfortable and look great with everything. I've got multiple colors and replace them every 2 years or so. By far my favorite shoe. Won't wear anything else.

Just got them...and they fit so nicely. Well, what do you expect from Adidas? I always use arch supports and they fit nicely with them as well.

This is the weirdest problem, but the top surface of the tongue is plastic and the shoe squeaks like crazy with every step from the tongue rubbing across the laces. It did not seem to stop happening, so we returned it.

Pretty cool shoe. Got lots of compliments the first week. Probably because I wear the same pair of shoes for a couple years before I get new ones. But I always get Adidas because they last long time.

I am very pleased with this product! It's very padded, and feels like you are walking on air. They also give very good arch support. When I first got these shoes, they felt a little stiff, but as I wore them for a few minutes they gave me an extra jump in my step. I am a dancer, so I have narrow feet. I would recommend these shoes to anyone who enjoys wearing classic Converse, as these shoes have about the same shape as converse do. I am exited to use these shoes as both a fashionable street wear item as well as a running shoe or any other sport. They have white bottoms, so they can be used for tennis. I am really pleased with this product, and will be buying another pair of Adidas after these wear out. P.S they look great with boot cut jeans! ;)

Zappos, what a service! The shoes were a really great deal the cheapest I found and they had them in stock! They were at my door in two days amazing. I bought the shoes for my daughter and she loves them.
