I love these shoes! I probably have more than 10 pairs. They are really comfortable. I work in retail so I'm on my feet all day and they are one of the few shoes that don't make my knees and legs ache. I get tons of compliments on the way they look.

Awesome shoe of course, I own many colors. Major thing to review here is Zappos amazing service. Ordered two pairs and one was out of stock, but not updated on the web so they gave me a 15 dollar gift certificate. Also the live support person helped a bunch.

This shoe is very comfortable. Note that it is slightly wider than most comparable brands. I normally wear a wide width, so I increased my size 1/2 inch in this model, and it fit perfectly. For example, if you wear a 9.5 wide, you could probably ear a 10 in this model. Love it!

These are nice shoes. Originally they fit just a tiny bit tight, but after a few wearings they loosened up to a perfect fit. I have unfortunately transitioned from a 100% Birkenstocks in my down time to something that covers my toes (wife made me) and has a little more functionality with my attire. Good for football to; not stupid American football but real football.

I added a lightweight insole and that's all it took to make this a perfect shoe for my week of walking in Disney World. Love the look, too.

I absolutely love this shoe! Comfortable, stylish, and affordable. I'm already on my second pair, but they are very durable. As long as they keep making these, I'm going to keep wearing them.

Great kick around shoe - but has little arch support. Men's shoe fits women's wide size really well.

These shoes turned out better than I expected. I like the color, fitting and comfort. I think they are good quality. I wear them constantly. The shipping was on time as well.

These are great shoes! They came with an extra set of red laces! I do not run in these, just wear them around.

Really good sneaker - things I like: very comfortable from the first wear, no breaking in, roomy at the toe. The mesh is very breathable - cool and comfortable to wear. The style looks more to me like an outdoorsy type hiking shoe than a running shoe, which I like. And I really like the colors - the red really pops. I've had the Mexicos before and think this one is a lot more comfortable!

Great shoes, look better in person. Not the most comfortable shoes in the world, but not exactly made for high activity.

I love these shoes. Straight of the box they are super comfortable. I walk dogs, so I need to be able to shift my weight around a lot and not have shoes that get stuck and risks my ankles, but also I need good traction and stability. These shoes do that, while also being light and stylish. I have received compliments on them. I have large feet for a woman, and wide, but very normal arches. It is nearly impossible to find a comfortable sneaker, and I had basically given up on finding something that looked cute. Until these! I will definitely buy them again.

These shoes go great with jeans or shorts, I have received all kinds of compliments and I've only had them for a month. These are retro running shoes, so the cushioning technology is exactly that, retro. That being said, they are comfortable enough to wear around town without hurting your feet. Overall, a very stylish, versatile pair of kicks.

These shoes look great. I feel as though most athletic shoes make my large feet look even larger, and it is not so in these! These shoes have great arch support and fit true to size. They are good for my every day walking around and biking places, although I'm not sure I would wear them as a work out shoe. They are casual enough to wear out anywhere, but plain enough to wear to work or my internship.

I have been a tiger wearer for nine years and I have never been disappointed with a pair yet. They are comfortable, breathable, and never make my feet hurt and I'm on them twelve hours a day. I highly recommend these shoes.

Really great looking shoes, nice to have some different sneakers than everyone else. I actually run in mine and although I'm not racing any chariots of fire, they seem up to the task. They do have open vents on top, which means your toes get wet in heavy rain, but I live in Socal, which that happens only a few times a year when I am in NYC. My only minor gripe is that that the front mesh material looks a little cheap, but overall happy with shoes.

These shoes are a favorite in our house. My husband likes their casual look to wear with his khakis to work. These are his second pair of Onitsukas and he loves them. They hold up pretty well, he wore his first pair for 2 years before we replaced them. This particular color appears a little brighter white in person than in the picture but overall very good shoes!!

I wear a size 12 in woman's which can be difficult to find, so I am constantly checking mans shoes for sleek low profile shoes. I have fount what I've been looking for. Stylish and comfortable. Will buy another pair in a different color.

I have really enjoyed these shoes. I experience them as fun, stylish, unique, and comfortable. I only have one suggestion for improvement. I wear the shoes without socks and the opening has a strip of what feels like vinyl and it sticks to my feet below the ankle. This takes away some of the shoes’ comfort for me. Also, I did try this shoe for running and because I run without socks I found the seams inside the shoe too be uncomfortable. Running would have been a bonus, so not a concern for me.
