Based off of reviews, I went a half size up which worked out perfectly. I’m usually a 9 and ordered the 9.5
I like that they are close to zero drop with just a bit of heel. The shoes are comfortable in the width department, as I do have wide feet. They have a stylish look to them. If the toe box was a little wider they would be perfect, for me that is.

Great sneaker; retro style with easy walking comfort. Wouldn’t recommend for running, but a great everyday fashion sneaker.

I would recommend ordering a half for full size up for theses shoes. Other than that, the shoes are stylish and lightweight, but not meant to give much support.

The Bullet is a great casual shoe for every day use. You are not going to put any running miles in them, but that's not their function. 1 week of solid use and I really like the way they feel and look. The only negative I have is that the suede on the heel seems to be a little thinner that the rest of the shoe, and has already started to show wear. Other than this, I would buy again.

These are stylish sneakers, but I definitely had to get a half size up. I normally wear a 10d shoe, but these are definitely snug fitting.

Seems to be a great shoe. Pretty comfortable. Very light weight. Like wearing nothing. For the price i love these shoes. On asphalt all day long so only time will tell how good they hold up.

Really like the style, they fit well, but are a little tight across the top of the foot.

This is a great, light, mostly comfortable shoe. I just wish it was offered in a Wide size, but the shoe did stretch a little, so it didn't really hurt my feet after wearing them all day. These are very stylish, and very lightweight. And for the price, a great value!

Coveted these for years and now I have a pair. Although the comfort is questionable, looking forward to wearing these throughout my European vacation.

Ok, so don't let the stars FOOL you, I really like these shoes. Just look at 'em! They've got that style, like I'm going dressed to see a soccer match with The Wailers. Sure, I overlook the arch support, meaning, they're almost flat, but dang, can they trick you to thinking on it; the amount of style is SO much, that, not only have I bought these years before, but I will continue to do so years to come. These are my go-to/go-back shoes for basic style that translates to simply cool.

Size 12 is too small, the shoe isn't long enough and the toes smash into the end of the shoe. Their low-profile jazz style fit fine in a 12 tho!

Love this shoe on the minimalism, classic look and great feel. This shoe needs an overhaul or a different version. It comes off a little too cheap with the shiny doo-dads and weak color selection. I'd love to see a little more quality, style and sophistication to lock this gem into a classic. If they could offer a customized order like vans and others, even better!

I love the look of these. There’s not much in the way of padding, so very long walks can result in sore feet and blisters if you’re not used to them (this happened to me after having worn them for months, but never for long walks). If you like being able to feel the features of the ground you’re walking on these are good for that, too. Excellent traction.

A beautiful classic at this point. Very lightweight. Fits well (maybe order a half size up to start, especially if you like a little more lateral toe room. "In Zappos We Trust". If you at a fan of vintage style sneakers (onitsuka tigers by asics) this will fit well in your aesthetic.

One aspect of the Bullet that rarely, if ever, gets mentioned is that they're great for those of us who live for the enjoyment of driving a manual transmission sports car and are looking for an affordable driving shoe. The light weight and thin sole are ideal for this and affords a great deal of feel, pretty close to barefoot. I only wish they made a model where the sole rode up the backside of the heel area, to prevent some early wear when using them for exactly this purpose. To top it all off, they're sleek and stylish for when you're just footing it around town.
My only suggestion would be to probably go a half-size up as they run slightly small.

Felt a bit tight at first but glad I kept them as they loosened up after a day or two.

Lightweight, great quality and very nice looking, the only downside is that the color comes off on the socks and feet :(

Very stylish, comfortable everyday shoe. I have always worn Chucks, and wanted to change it up. A little more narrow than Converse, but not necessarily a bad thing - just a more snug fit. For $50 I would buy these shoes again.

I've purchased this pair twice now. They are so lightweight and breathable. The style is also great for what I wear. They're great for driving, too. My only complaint is that the felt style fabric on the shoe wears out relatively quickly and frays.

I'm about 2 weeks into them. Comfortable. Light weight. Squeak on hard surfaces like I'm playing basketball. I'm not playing basketball though. Coworkers are slightly agitated. We'll get through this as one group. Good shoes still though.

I really like the shoes, but they run about a half size smaller than expected. Most shoes I wear a 9 and could probably use a 9.5 in these. Hoping they stretch out to better comfort.

I like the minimal feel of these, but the default insole and insert are a little too squishy for my tastes. On both pairs I've purchased, I've actually removed the blue foam insert that is glued to the bottom of the insole. I like feeling the ground beneath my feet.
I wouldn't expect these shoes to last for more than a year of semi-frequent wear, but they're pretty good pick for the price in my opinion.
