Wow, I can't believe I've owned these shoes for 7 months. Basically worn them every day. I walk/run 10 miles per day, so that's 2100 miles, and they still look brand new. The best pair of shoes I've owned in awhile. Comfortable, supportive, awesome.

Excellent shoes, very comfortable.
The tred pattern keeps excellent grip for running on wet surfaces

What attracted me to these shoes in particular was the price, but upon wearing them for the past few weeks I can tell you that they are much better than expected. They are extremely comfortable, stylish and go with everything. Pumas have historically catered to wider feet, so keep that in mind when ordering. I am a teacher and on my feet all day. You will not be let down by these shoes.

The Denim ones look awesome -- just like the pictures. The only semi-negative thing worth mentioning is that the side walls squish out when you step or put weight on the shoes, which makes sense because the sidewalls are a thin vinyl material. So the shoes are not super stable for people needing arch or foot support. I highly recommend them for cool kicks to wear around, but I wouldn't recommend for a ton of city walking or jogging.

I had another pair of blue and white pumas that have been my farorite shoes over the past five years, the Lab 2. I decided it was time for another pair of gym and general kick around shoes and i was immediatly fixated on these due to the color scheme and Puma brand. I actually like these better than the Lab 2s because they have more padding on the sole and a very slightly elevated heel whick I like for weight training. These shoes are very comfortable and fit my narrow-medium width fit like a glove. I love the style and the comfort. Couldn't be happier.

Very nice looking. Very light. Though, like most Pumas, they run a little narrow. Would buy again.

I love these shoes, though I only use them for casual wearing. They feel a bit larger than my previous pair of Pumas of the same size.

In the last year I have starting really digging the lightweight, low cushion, stylish sneakers, and these are the most comfortable so far. I feel like walking on squishy clouds with them!

This shoe will not stretch so if you have a wider foot (like me), this is not the shoe for you. Had it for over a year now and it still hasn't accommodated my foot. I had to get a wide shoe from New Balance.

Look great! Pretty "true-to-size". Very light-weight. Would purchase again if I had to "do it all over again."

These are an awesome shoe! Run slightly narrow and have little to no arch support. They do have good cushioning in the sole to help make up for the lack of support. Very nice design. Fit is true to size. Depending on the shoe, I wear a 10 - 10.5. I ordered a 10 and it fits well with 3/4 a thumb width of room in the big toe. Get some!

Have had a pair of these for about 6 months now. The nubs on the heel have already worn completely off, and the rest aren't far behind. The rest of the shoe has held up great though. The sole is a bit thinner than I would like, and it has led to more than a few rolled ankles while horsing around. The cushioning is very nice, and I still wear them when I'll be on my feet all day (much better than standing in Sambas for hours on end).

These looked great, but in the end they run really narrow. If you have wide feet, sadly you'll need to stay away.

Great shoe, very comfortable and retro stylish. I normally wear Onitsuka Tiger Ultimate 88 and these are just as comfortable, almost like you're not wearing anything. I was a little apprehensive about the small, cleat-like nubs on the sole but they actually feel pretty normal. However, as with other shoes like this, there is not much arch support at all. I've also found that for me Puma tends to be a whole size small, as I normally wear a 10 with most any other brand, but with Puma it's 11.

I owned a pair of Pumas two pair of shoes ago, I thought they were pretty comfortable. After those I switched to another brand and didn't like them as much. I returned to Puma with this pair of shoes and they are some of the most comfortable shoes I've ever worn. They are lightweight and so comfortable it feels like you're wearing slippers. The little nubs on the bottom massage your feet almost and you'll feel like you're gliding along the ground at faster speeds than you normally do.

Bought the parrot green pair and loved them so much I bought the denim blue as well. The shoes are light and cushioned, and the little knobs on the soles make all the difference. The only improvement I would make is make this shoe out of leather. It's getting harder and harder to find leather sneakers and the textile ones just do not last as long, though you pay a lot for them.

I had gotten these shoes over a year ago and they run huge. I am a huge Puma fanatic but their cuts for all their styles are different for each. These shoes run big. I am a 12, and I should have gotten an 11½, or maybe even a 12. These shoes are super comfortable. I should have exchanged them, but I was lazy. I recommend them though, these shoes are great. Get half a size smaller !

I run three or four miles a day in these shoes. Do not let the retro looks fool you. They are great light weight cheap running shoes.

The shoe was exactly what I expected. They are very light and comfertable. However, I am glad I read the other reviews because the shoe definitly runs a half size smaller than listed.

These shoes are incredibly comfortable! Like walking on pillows. I'm actually ordering a second pair in a different color. They felt a little narrow at first, but after loosening the laces a bit they felt great. Love these shoes!

I was very pleasantly surprised by these shoes. For the price, I expected them to be cheaply made and moderately comfortable, at best. I was very pleasantly surprised to find that they are well-made, good-looking shoes that also happen to be extremely lightweight and very comfortable - they required absolutely no breaking in and felt great on my feet right out of the box. I also liked the eco-friendly packaging materials, which came with a free reusable bag.

Last month I purchased the PumaWhirlwind Classic. I think the shoe speaks for itself in colors and style. I love this shoe and wear them often and have received compliments on them. I would suggest you buy this shoe if you like quality and comfort.

A very comfortable, lightweight shoe. Good for all day wear, but for me, not enough support if much of that day is spent walking.
Narrow. I wear a 9.5 New Balance wide - for the Puma shoe, I needed to go to a 10.5.
