The shoes squeak a lot and it's annoying. I like the style but I would not recommend. Also, I wear a 12 but in this it was too short so I had to buy a 13 but it was too long.

Eh. Somehow I thought these would look better than they do. The tongue of the shoe is flimsy and plastic-feeling. They look like they're made of rubber. I'm sending mine back. Love Zappos for the return policy!!!!! Oh, and I would definitely say that they run true to size if not a little big.

Can't Walk in These -
I love Sambas. I've owned lots of them, but when these came in the mail I put them on and after two blocks of walking had blisters on the side and back of my heels. I put insoles in, which stopped the shoe from rubbing off my skin but that made them way too tight. I just hope they will get much better with break in time.

These shoes stink! They are missing the original extra-long tongue and they also squeak like you are wearing cheap counterfeit stuff. I have worn it every day for a month and it hasn't stopped squeaking! I just discovered Adidas has a Samba model closer to the original called "Samba Classic" and they are cheaper, too. Maybe I will try to get Zappos to exchange my worn out ones for those. See ya.

I've worn Sambas for 10 years. Not anymore. I wear size 14s and despite buying several pair they're all too small now. I can't order a 14.5 or 15 so time to find another model that doesn't skimp.
