Customer Reviews adidas Originals Superstar Foundation

I love the style and look of the cobalt blue, but the shoe is a bit big and loose in the heels, even after I exchanged for a half size smaller. Too lazy to return it. So I'm just wearing it.

Great shooes! Have same ones for 3 years, use all the time. Overall, they look like brand new, just a bit dirty and smells bad, but that's my fault =) Highly recommended!!

I've bought this shoe twice from Zappos in the last 4 years. The first time took awhile to break down, we're talking daily use for about 2 years. Solid performance. The 2nd pair was purchased 2 months ago, and it already has holes inside it. I don't know if the material is cheaper now, or if my foot awkwardly wore down the inside heel, but it happened. Still a comfortable shoe. This shoe takes about 1-2 weeks to break in, then it fits like a glove. Despite the material by the inside heel breaking down rather quickly, I think it's a decent shoe.

Shipping was super fast. Shoes run big. Ordered a 1/2 size smaller based on other reviews but when I tried them on they were still big. Going to return and get a full size smaller.

A great looking pair of sneakers, I usually get complimented on them. Good support, I managed to walk around in these shoes for about 2 hours before my feet started to hurt. Looks a bit wider in reality than in the photos. I agree with other reviewers that you should order a size down.

This is probably my 15th pair of superstars in this lifetime. I'm 35 years old and have been wearing them since I was in high school. You really can't go wring with shell toes, jeans and a tee or hoodie. Comfortable and cute. The only reason I knocked the review down by 1 star is that the construction seems to be slipping a bit. The shoes come laced, but not up to the top hole. Oddly enough those holes haven't been fully punched. I had a heck of a time trying to lace up the rest of the shoe.

A very cute shoe, but runs very big. I ordered the men's 7 1/2. I wear 8 1/2 to 9, but this fit more like a woman's 9 1/2.

I absolutely love these shoes. Zappos had my entire order (including four shirts) to my door in less than 24 hours! That was phenomenal! The only reason I gave three stars for comfort is these shoes come with extreme arch support and I have flat feet. I replaced the inner soles with after-market ones that are kinder to my feet, and they are now perfect.

I have had two pairs of these shoes and for me, they are great. I need a good shoe that combines athletics with casual, work, and style. I need a shoe that I could wear on the court without leaving a big ugly black scuff mark every time I have to go on the floor. I need a shoe that I can wear when dressing up to teach my class in shirt and tie. I need a comfortable shoe I can wear when traveling. I need a shoe that I can polish if it gets a little scuffed up. This is that shoe. THE ONLY negative I have is that the uppers seam, right along the outside border of the shoe, have a tendency to separate. But then, as you may have guessed, I wear this shoe FOR EVERYTHING AND ALWAYS. I usually get about a year out of them.

Best shoes ever, for my feet. Wish they made cooler colors and designs, but these do go with everything.

Just received these today. I put them on right away and continued my day to break them in. They're beautiful shoes. Maybe not the most comfortable at first; I'm experiencing some pinching and tightness at the top of my foot but I think it's just because they are brand new. Super classy look. I'm usually an 8.5-9 in womens sneakers. I bought an 8.5 and I still have a bit of toe room, but I wouldn't get a half size smaller because of the tightness on top. Overall, I recommend for a stylish classy look to match your outfit, but you probably shouldn't go walking in these for 8 hours.

The Adidas Original Superstar 2 is a good shoe. However the Adidas Original SS2 was put forth to replace the Adidas Superstar 2G. The SS2G's were far more durable and comfortable and offered more support to the heal and arch of the foot as well as easier to keep clean. The SS2's porous outer soul is hard to keep clean in addition to the design structure breaks down to easy. Bring back the Adidas Superstar SS2G's... Sincerely, Loyal Adidas fan/supporter and Zappos.com customer.

I bought these for my son for his birthday. He's always wanted them. Unfortunately they are narrow and run small. He normally wears a 13 but this shoe didn't work. Go at least a half size up. Style is great however. Love it.

I have owned superstars since in high school. Almost 40 years now. They are what they are. All purpose tennis, basketball and knock around. Never go out of style and are a great value.

Classic shell toes, which is great. I can't say that I'm impressed with their durability because this is the second pair I've owned that have fallen apart in a similar manner. The plastic shell toe separates from the leather over time. I expect this to some degree and I didn't knock them too much for it, but I've only had them a year or so and I don't wear them every day.

These shoes are very comfortable and stylish. They could use a bit more arch support (and the insole is not easy to remove), but the outsole is thick and supportive. The inside of the shoe is cushioned and very comfortable. I may have to get a white pair in the spring.

A little larger than expected, length-wise. If you're used to NB sizing I'd go a half size smaller. Other than that, this shoe never goes out of style.

Shoe runs about a half size large but overall is very comfortable. Will probably get same in another color.

Classic design. The hardshell is good for wet weather. I did feel like these were tighter than my older pair, but perhaps they just need breaking in.

Great shoes! I wear them every day to class and work. First day wearing them in was rough (felt narrow, rubbed my ankles), but don't let that discourage you. After day 2, they became the most comfortable shoes I own. I wear the laces loose so I can slip them on and off.

I bought these shoes for my husband and he loves them. The service at Zappos was great as well. I ordered the shoes on a Saturday and they were at my house by Monday or Tuesday...super fast!

These shoes fit well. They have better arch support than Adidas I've had in the past. The look is great. I'm able to get away with wearing them with just about any color or style.

I totally dig the way these shoes look. They go with everything and they are great in the rain. The only drawback is that they are a touch roomy. I wear orthotics, so that may contribute. Overall, these are fantastic and sleek.

These shoes would be perfect if they weren't laminated. But they are and for my own taste they are too flashy, especially at night. These shoes are too shiny and they squeak a lot as well.
