Customer Reviews Ipath Reed

These are the most comfortable shoes I have ever owned. I am actually on here shopping for another pair. They have been very durable up to this point.

This is my second pair, and I've had these for about 6 months now. These shoes are ridiculously comfy. Wide enough to fit an orthotic in and just high enough for great support. They're durable enough to withstand 6 months of longboarding, not the most aggressive thing in the world, but by now the griptape alone would have consumed most other shoes, and they still have great board feel.

Not my first pair of ipaths nor my last. These shoes look awesome and are lighter then my other middtop skate shoes. The hemp will rip fairly fast though.

My son loves his new shoes. Very difficult to find men's size 15 in the latest styles. Zappos saved the day! Will definitely be back again.

Just got these, one word, comfy. Other people say that they break with just the slightest walking but mine seem to be doing good, I have suede. Haven't skated them yet but they seem like they will have good boardfeel, you will want to order a half size smaller as they seem to run a little big. I wear a nine so I ordered an 8.5. Overall a good shoe for just kickin' it and maybe some skating.

Excellent skate shoe and all around performance. Nice mid height. Can play hoops in them as needed. Tongue doesn't slip. Inside band keeps it right where it belongs. Love my iPaths. Soul.

I skateboard everyday long board and short board and these shoes are the best,there like clouds on my feet and basically the most comfortable shoes I've ever stepped into, the suede material is not the strongest. The shoe goo my shoes and if you do this to the reeds they will last forever i did this to my pair and they have lasted years,you just need to keep applying shoe goo every once in a while, but now that there super broken in there the most comfy shoe ever and they can still varial kickflip down a 8 set just fine. Thank you iPath. Keep up the good work, and Zappos is also the bomb for the fast shipping.

I’ve owned one pair of Ipaths before (Watson Pro) and they were the best skate shoes I’ve ever owned. I’m skating in the Reeds, which are replacing my Watsons, so I don’t expect they’ll last nearly as long. The Watsons lasted a very long time because I just started skating again for the first time in 7 years. Before, I wore skate shoes in most situations because they are generally wider than most other types of shoes, which is good because my foot is a size 8, 5E width. The Watsons were a bit on the heavy side, but these Reeds are not, even as mid-tops. Since all skate shoes are your standard D width, I went out on a limb and got a 9.5. I usually get 10 in skate shoes, but if you have wide feet & want to get the Reed, go a size and a half up (if you know your exact foot size, that is; I’ve had mine measured). You WILL NOT be disappointed. I’m not! The Reed has great board feel and is very flexible. You can’t really expect much arch support in a shoe like this, and inserts put more stuff in between you and the board; if my feet were coated in steel-belted rubber, I’d skate bare footed! But a well cushioned, thin sole like you’ve got in the Reed is the next best thing.

I ordered these for my son during the summer. They were nice looking shoes, and he said they were very comfortable. The problem was they fell apart very quickly. Within 2 weeks they looked ratty and by 2 months, they were disintegrating. Don\'t know if it was the material or what, but I\'ve never seen any shoe fall apart that fast. I have since ordered Emericas for him, and they are lasting just fine. Zappos is still always awesomely fast with shipping, though!

I had these shoes for about a month. I used them for walking and some minor running. The stitching began to come off on the right shoe for no reason. Beware of quality. There is a reason that there are various negative reviews about these shoes.

I bought these shoes for my 16 yr. old son who is hard on his shoes. He was looking for a brown shoe but wasn\'t sure about the high top. He loves them. Zappos speed of delivery is incredible. This is the second pair of shoes my son has ordered and we will do it again.

Shoes are great. Service was excellent. Shipped to us the next day! I find that amazing. Placed the order at 10pm. Shoes were at my house by 5pm! Explanation was that Zappos appreciated our business and upgraded shipping to overnight. Wow.

I love this shoe. It\'s held up well and is really cool. It\'s not the most comfy shoe but I still love them. And of corse zappos was awesome. Perfect service everytime!

I bought these shoes last minute for my son for Christmas. I couldn't believe how fast I received them. He absolutely loved them. Thank you.

These shoes surpassed my expectations. I owned a pair of ipaths before and i knew that they meant business. The price was fair given the perseverance of the shoe. It fits beautifully and I feel confident wearing them. The design is outstanding and unique and color does not fade over time. I still have my old pair of ipaths that I bought 2½ years ago and they look great. Basically if you take care of this shoe it will take care of you.

I ordered these shoes for my son. They were perfect in every way. Ipath shoes are very sturdy and a great shoe for the winter months. As always, ordering from Zappos is always a positive experience; the shoes came in record time!

Just right - Got my pair of Reed Brown/Multi’s today, and am very happy so far. Super comfy mid-top cush, the color's true to these photos -- kind of ashy-brown, and your foot sits kind of low to the ground cuz the soles not super thick, which I really like -- makes you feel more rooted to the ground. Don't know yet, but based on other reviews I'm expecting they'll start wearing pretty quick, but whatever. For now they're incredible. Oh, and P.S. Zappos, you got these on my feet in less than 12 hours!!! How are you possible??? Fan for life.

I Love This Shoe! These shoes are comfortable beyond belief & have a one of a kind style that's sure to attract compliments. I love em. You'll love em.

Excellence! I have owned Ipaths for my last 4 pairs of shoes and I’ll probably continue to buy them. The most recent to my collection are the Brown Shearling Reed's, and I’ve also owned the hemp Reed lows. They are both really nice shoes and I would recommend them to anyone looking for new shoes. The one thing I can say negatively however, is the price. I wish they could be less expensive. But, then again, that doesn't really say anything about the shoes themselves. So, pony up the cash and buy 'em.

We liked it, but we love Zappos!!! My son ordered this and it was just what he expected. I will say he needs a bit more arch support, but he is happy... I am a HUGE Zappos fan and this is the best online site in my opinion for shopping! You set the bar high!!!

Awesome Shoes - Ipath Rasta Suede are awesome shoes. Ordered them and they got here in three days. Comfortable right out of the box and comes with extra laces. Sick shoe.

The best shoe I have ever owned. I have been wearing Ipath’s for about 5 years and it started with the Grasshopper. The Reed and Reed Low are amazing shoes. I bought one hemp pair and they fell apart in about 6 months of everyday wear. I would stick with the leather shoes. I am going backpacking to Europe for a month and I was going to get some hiking shoes. Now I think I’m going to get some leather Reeds and throw an insole in them. Buy them! You won’t regret it. I wear a 13 in Grasshoppers and a 12 in Reeds.
