Customer Reviews Globe Pulse Lite

It rains a lot here in Portland, and I was looking for an "all weather" shoe I can wear in case it rains, rather than clomping around in heavy rubber boots like a dope if it doesn't rain. I was hesitant to order 'cause of the mesh, but they seem okay so far. I use an umbrella & avoid puddles, so we'll see how they do in a complete downpour. I'm glad I read the other reviews and ordered size 11 rather than 10.5. If I buy another pair, I'll order a full size larger.

These shoes were surprisingly impressive. I wore them every day for over a year. I retired them, only to replace them with another pair of fresh Globes. I just recently ran a 4 mile obstacle course with them (Spartan Race), and they held up. Keep in mind this is after I had retired them, after I had wore them for the entire year before. By far the best pair of shoes I've owned. They breath amazing, the grip is great, the style is awesome, and they are, most importantly, comfortable.

Awesome shoe. Very comfortable. I wear this shoe more than any of my others. Fits perfect.

I wanted a lightweight breathable shoe that was black. This is as close as you'll get. I am usually not a flashy colors kind of guy, particularly with shoes, but the green actually works out okay considering it's as close as I could get to all black. They are super comfortable, but have less stability than the skate shoes I'm usually wearing around. Since I'm an office jockey most of the time, they are perfect, but get out walking or playing around, they hold up well. Haven't had them in the rain yet, but they have the vent holes to handle a flood, so we'll see. I also have skinny feet, and these definitely fit the bill. I usually wear a 10, but 10.5 in these was perfect. Thanks to the other reviewers who pointed this out!

These shoes look amazing in person and the quality is superb. The toe box is a bit narrow so I had to order a half size larger than usual. I get compliments on these all the time, and you won't find another person with the same shoes which is cool. As always, great service from Zappos. I only buy shoes from Zappos, and always will.

I normally wear a 10.5 to 11 depending on the shoe, I got an 11 in this thanks to the previous review and they are a little snug, not too much though. So I would definitely go a half size up. Very very light comfy sneaker. Prob the lightest sneak Ive ever worn and they look dope!

Definitely smaller than marked. I wear 11 almost always and needed to exchange for 11.5 in this shoe. So save yourself the return and order a half size larger.

Globe makes the best kicks period. These are not as cushy as my other pair of Globe Appleyards that I wear every day for about 5 years, but they are so light and fit perfect. I gotta agree with everyone else, Globes seem to run 1/2 size small. I wear 11.5 usually, but in globes I wear 12. These need no break-in, good to go right out of the box. Maybe a little narrow in the toe area, but I have narrow feet so I like it that way. On sale for this price!? Grab these up while you still can.

Classic skate shoe very comfortable - but the sizing was all wrong, had to send back two times.

I got the charcoal/blue colored sneakers. They look amazing, in my opinion they are some of the best looking shoes I have. They seem to run a little bit on the small size in my experience. Very comfortable and breathe well.

After 4 years I finally got a blow out. But Ive mountain biked and hiked many miles, mountain climbed, swam, waited/walked in water and worked on my feet all day at work with these things. I also have washed them in the washer several times. They probably would have lasted even longer if I didn't do that but they have a tendency to get a little funky from getting them wet a lot. Ive been tough on these things and they held up all the way. While not my main shoes for all these years they where my go to for any outdoor activity. Not good for skatboarding obviously but the grip on rock while climbing is amazing for what i would consider a dope looking bmx shoe... Back for another pair.

Love the style, and the quality. Works with a wide range of outfits. Also offers great traction over flat surfaces (we often engage into physical activities at work). I ordered 1/2 size larger, as the others had suggested - that ended up being a mistake. Mine was true to posted size. So don’t listen to others and try your usual size first. The bad: the shoes don't provide as much comfort as the mainstream running shoes do. After walking 5+ miles in the city, the bottom of the feet start hurting, and the calves develop slight soreness. I would love for the shoes to provide improved cushioning (thicker soles would help). Other than that, it’s my favorite pair; I wear them every week

Glad I read other reviews and ordered 1/2 size larger. Fit great! Comfortable and have received many positive comments.

BEST. SHOE. EVER. I am so glad I purchased the Globe Pulse Lite. They are super lightweight and the vents in the soles are an awesome extra as you can feel the air "breathing" through them. I read others reviews saying they were a 1/2 size too small but not true. They will seem a bit snug at first, but trust me, they will stretch the first time you wear them. I wear size 11 1/2. I ordered them and the 12 to try both. The 12 was just too big. To sum it up. Don't delay. Get these shoes. (1 more thing, I got compliments the VERY 1st time I wore them out.)
