What\'s not to like? I get these by the dozen, the perfect go everywhere shoe. And slip-ons are especially good at airports.

These are graet sneakers that look good with skinny jeans. They are slightly padded inside, so they are pretty comfortable. The Converse ones that aren't Jack Purcells have almost NO padding, so be sure to get these. They run true to size but maybe a bit narrow.

Very cute - I love the slightly distressed look and convenience of the slip-on styling. A word of caution: Zappos' sizing is off, and different from Chuck Taylor's. For reference, I wear a regular women's 7. In classic Chuck Taylors I have size 4.5. I ordered the same size in these (according to Zappos, the 4.5 M/6.0 W). When they arrived, the box said 4.5 M/6.5 W. They were a bit too small and I'm exchanging them for the 5.0 M/7.0 W (or, according to Zappos, the 5.0 M/6.5 W). Very confusing.

I bought these because I'm a fan of Chuck Taylors and wanted something similar to their simplicity. Overall, I am pleased with my purchase. This shoe has a thin padding between material making the sides and lip of the shoe more comfortable. Also I was pleased to find a cushioned sole insert which is definitely an upgrade from the regular Chucks I am used to. The sole insert is not glued down and can be removed easily. The blue rubber sole on the bottom of the shoe isn't very rigid compared to Chucks and I can see this wearing down quicker. The sizing of the shoe is similar to the sizing of Chuck Taylors. I wear US 11s but always order 10.5 when getting Chucks. The shoe adds about 1 inch to your height when they are on your feet. The white rubber around the smile of the shoe contains tiny little circles on them giving them a rough edge. If you zoom in far enough in the preview window you will see what I am talking about. Minimal arch support.

The shoe is very casual/sporty and great with jeans. I wouldn't think of these as your daily shoe. It's more of a Friday night at the local pub or Saturday/Sunday BBQ at a friend's place.

I wear a women's 12 W. These are quite comfortable, perfect for weekends and running errands. The color is more like lavender instead of gray. Not much arch support so not good for extensive walking.

Absolutely love these shoes. I have skinny feet, and they actually fit me pretty snugly. They seem to have more cushion than your standard Converse shoes. (I own 3 pairs of Converse.) If you have wider feet, they will probably be a little snug at first. If you're going to wear them with socks, go a half size larger. My only complaint is that I bought the "grey" color. It's not really grey. It's more of a lavender. Luckily, I'm a female, so no big deal. But I'd hate for a guy to buy these as unisex shoes, and then be disappointed when they show up in lavender.

These are great summer sneakers, comfortable without socks even while pounding around city streets.

Love these shoes, however, you should order them a half size smaller than you would normally wear. This was the first time a shoe didn't fit me in my regular size. I can understand for the life of me why a shoe company wouldn't make a shoe true to size fit. Order them a half size smaller or you'll be sending them back like I had to.

Great shoe! Fits a bit tighter then the standard Converse and for that I had to go one size up. Once they break in a bit better, I imagine I will love them.

The photo of the shoe (in pale yellow) is not close to reality. It is more like they mixed some green into the dye. I could use them for traffic cones too bright, especially compared with the picture.

Nothing, you really need to use orthotics or arch supports with most Converse canvas sneakers like the Chuck Taylor\'s or these.

Terrible purchase. The bottom edges of the shoe fell apart and peeled off within a couple months of wearing the shoe (not daily use, mind you). I liked the look and fit, but honestly, it just blew apart. Total mess.

This is my first pair Converse and I am very happy with the purchase. The Low Profiles do come 1/2 size larger and have thinner insole padding. I love the black leather version. They look and feel like good quality leather. These are comfortable even with a thinner padding. Thanks Zappos for the fast shipping.

I wear a man's 12 and have always bought a 12 in any shoe I've bought. I had to return these for a half size smaller. They are my favorite shoes and every time that I wear them someone compliments me on them.

I have been waiting for this shoe to be available in my size for almost 3 months and finally got to purchase it. I was very happy not only because I got this shoe, but also Zappos team shipped it overnight to me free of charge. I was really satisfied. It really fit me well and its very comfortable.

My son loves these! They look great, too! The leather adds a bit of sophistication to the sneaker.

I love the Jack Purcell line of Converse shoes. These slip ons are great. Easy to put on and goes with anything. They are comfortable right out of the box.

Great shoe. Pretty comfortable although I probably wouldn't go for really long walks on pavement with them. Very good looking, I've gotten many compliments on them. The low-pro look much better than the regular JP's. I don't like slip-ons so with very little effort, I was able to cut some stitches and put some nice black laces in them which makes the shoes look even better. The leather seems to be very high quality and should be durable.

I just got these shoes today so I haven't had a chance to wear them out but the style is amazing! They look very nice with the leather and the shoe fits like a glove. I like the convenience of the slip on and had tried a pair of Sanuks first, but these have much better padding inside. Plus the insole is removable so you could put a custom insole in there too if you wanted. I know the white part will probably get dirty pretty quick but that's to be expected. I can't seem to find this shoe anywhere but Zappos so I may just but another pair for later! That's how much I like them.

Well, I was reluctant to spend this much on casual "kicks", but am glad I did. Very comfy style, and these have a lot more cushion than the normal Converse styles. I can't wear normal Converse due to their sizing. These are great especially if you're female. They run true to size; I ordered a 7 and they fit perfectly. Keepers for sure!

Dope! Especially since I got them 1/2 off. They run narrow, so if you've got wide feet make sure you go 1/2 size bigger or your toes are gonna ache. Great daily drivers tho.
