A true classic, I have these in all white and love them! Super comfy and look great with a pair of jeans. I get compliments every time I wear them, they bring me back to my high school days.

These shoes are as cool as they look. Very comfy, but will need socks to get your heels used to the rigid-ish back.

Zappos and these shoes really are superstars! My daughter ordered her usual size but found them too big. After an easy return process (you really do have the best customer service!) 2 days later she had the perfect size. The sneakers are comfortable and stylish, totally worth the small amount more you would pay for plain, white ones.

Love these shoes, very substantial shoe. Almost stiff, but I am sure they will soften with a little wear. So confusing to see reviews about sizing. I am always an 8 or 8 1/2 depending on manufacturer and I went for a size 8. They are very roomy and very wide - and I have a wide foot with some issues (bunions) Almost tempted to order 7 1/2 but I think I will stay with the 8. The stripe helps break up the line of the shoe - very flattering. Love the classic look of them. Definitely 5 stars!

Love the look and that it have a wider toe box for a wider feet like me. This shoe needs a bit of breaking in but good quality. Size is bigger than my usual women 8 so I ordered 7.5 & it's perfect.

It's cute and more for fashion than for everyday comfort. I only tried it on initially to find my usual size was too big and returned. I'd say about 1/2 size too big. It's also a thick, chunky shoe. Might need some breaking in.

These are great! Classic styling and pretty comfortable, but run VERY LARGE. I usually wear an 8.5-9 and sized all the way down to a 7.5. Even at the correct size for my foot, the way they're cut leave my foot slipping out a the heel slightly when I walk. I noticed it at first but it wasn't bothersome enough to return. After wearing them around I didn't notice it. Love the copper colored stripes. Classic cute!

This is such a classic shoe, I just really wanted a pair. The heel slips off with every step, which is obviously not ideal, and I have seen people add a heel pad to the back with some success. I'll wait until they're broken in a bit to see if I want to add one or not. Aside from that, they're exactly as I remember them from the 90s.

The look is fantastic and they're pretty comfortable. The sole is thick so there's good cushion. I added an orthotic for more arch support. The only issue is the sizing is definitely off by a FULL size larger and now I understand why... It's because their US measurements are purposely off. I normally wear 7.5 US = 38 European. Other reviewers said these tend to fit big so I sized down already to a 7 but I still could fit two fingers into the back. Pictures attached of the box and the shoe label where you can see their US 7 = EU 38 2/3 = UK 5.5. Whoever heard of a shoes coming in 2/3 sizes?? Anyway, I sent these back for a size 6.5. Reminder that I normally wear a 7.5 so you should go a full size down too.

I orders my normal size 9 but when i opened the bOx I thought it was a men’s show it was so big! I went down a whole size and now it fits fine. Very cute, comfortable and stylish!

I love everything about these shoes except for the fact that even ordering a half size down (and size 5 is the smallest size available), my heel slips up when I walk. My heels doesn't come off the shoes, but they slip up. I was surprised that the shoes are still very comfortable when that happens though. So, I'm torn and not sure what to do...

I wear a 7.5 and have a narrow foot. I ordered a half size smaller (7) and they are good overall. The heel slips, but being able to tie keeps them in my foot.

These are all about style, not function or support. My daughter wears them as her required hip hop costume shoes - they look amazing, but there’s no support in them so she only wears them at dress rehearsal and competition. For regular dance classes and everyday wear she has other shoes that are actually healthy for her feet.

I usually wear a women's 10, sometimes a 9.5 wide. After reading reviews, I ordered a women's size 9. I think the length was okay, but the shoe was just too narrow for my foot. I returned and ordered the men's size 8.5 which is a D width, compared to the women's shoe, which is a B width. I've tried it on and think it's going to work. The heel feels like it slips a little, but I think I'll be able to do some adjustments with the laces, and if they don't work, it's still tolerable. Per other reviews, it really does help to check the ADIDAS size chart, as it's different from most other size charts and will help you pick the correct size the first time. Ladies, if your feet are wide, try the men's. Same great look!

These shoes are the cutest! I am a 7.5, first ordered a 6.5 but they were too small. The 7 fits with a little slippage in the heel. The tongue hits my foot and isn't super comfortable but they are so cute, I'll deal with it.

I was unpleasantly surprised when my order arrived. The stripes on the shoes are NOT the soft pink shown in the photo. They are more of a bright neon pink. Not something I would have purchased. Hope Zappos will update their product photo to more appropriately reflect what is being sold.

I can’t really give a rating to this order, because they are probably really nice shoes, but they run extremely big and wide. My usual size is 10.5 in sneakers. I ordered 10s after reading the reviews, but they were still way too big, like falling off my feet when fully laced. So I exchanged for a 9.5. That order got lost in the mail (customer service was wonderful!) and eventually showed up several days after I’d had my payment credited back. Unfortunately, they were no longer too long, but still wide enough to fall off, even when I tried adding an extra insole. So, back they go, and I’m giving up on this shoe now. But Zappos customer service is superb!

I'm not sure why people say to order a full size down. I wear a 9.5 and the 8.5 was too small in the toe box. It pinched my toes. don't think I'll reorder though. They look clunky. And very long. Like clown shoes.

These are the worst shoes I've ever bought. I looked at other reviews that said they run really small. I bought a size smaller. My toes hit the front of the shoe and my heel comes out of the back. There is no way at all to buy a size that would fit. Adidas is supposed to be a high end brand. I hope knock off shoes are being sold. I'll never buy Adidas again. I'm not sure I'll buy from Zappos again. Why are they even selling these shoes?

I was very disappointed when I received these shoes. I am a 9 1/2 in women's sizes, and reading the reviews for the product I decided to buy an 8 1/2. Even after receiving the 8 1/2 size, I had to send it back. The shoes are at least 2 sizes too big, if not three. When it says women's sizes, it really means men's.
