I used to have a pair of Chuck Taylor's as a kid (and that was a while ago) as great cheap knock around shoes. Price has gone up a fair bit, but these monochrome shoes look great; classic styling, updated a bit.
Can you name a more classic shoe than good ol' "Chucks" (especially black ones)? . . . I didn't think so. . .
Whether dirty or new low tops are forever cool, and they are also comfortable and useful. I was issued my first pair in the Army to run in, my buddy got married in his, my sister played tennis in hers, and my nephew actually played basketball in them. A classic.
I read the reviews before I purchased these shoes for my husband. But the real test came when he started to wear them. He said "just tell them, I wear them everyday!!!" Yes, they do sorta lose the seude inside after a few wears but they're so comfortable, I bought 2 more pairs so as not to wear out any one pair too soon. He wears them on quick runs to the store and anywhere else he can dress casual and comfortable.
Unlike most of the reviewers of this product, I am not a wife who got these slippers for her husband who immediately said they were comfy and warm. I got them for myself and I am their primary user.
This may be the perfect slipper, although I just got them one day ago. They fit tightly, without slipping or turning at the ankle. What's more they don't cause my feet to sweat, and it's July here in Atlanta. The soles don't seem to mark up the tile floors, or skid. And most importantly they are light on the feet, like slippers should be. I ordered and returned Evans ¥ukon slippers because they are clunky and feel like shoes not slippers and at more than twice the price of these. I paid $14.89 for the Dearfoams, $41.90 for the Evans. How can you beat this? Perfect! Highly recommended.
So everyone knows Brikenstock shoes are good for your feet, especially sore tired at the end of the day achy feet. But when you have foot problems like I do - you really need to have several pairs around. For the rest of you - these shoes are great to put on after you kick your work shoes off. So much better than going bare foot!!
I bought a pair of these (in navy blue) for my baby son several months ago. We live in Minnesota, and I thought they would be nice and warm (and cute) for the winter months. Soon, I realized that not only are they warm and cute, but also the best thing since sliced bread. Or, in the world of babies, the best thing since the invention of disposable diapers. If your baby's socks fall off and leave you searching for its mate, or trying to figure out clever ways to keep them on (tucking them in pants, etc), then this bootie is definitely something you'd love too. Never *ever* has a bootie fallen off, even with crawling, jumping, climbing, etc. So, his feet are toastie warm all the time. Since he is outgrowing the navy booties, I just bought the next size up in brown.
Teva took form and function into consideration to deliver this easy, ultra-wearable sandal. The Hurricane 3 features pliable webbing straps with two points of adjustability, a grippy, comfort-molded footbed, along with the casual Teva style you've loved forever.
Easy does it! Teva's Estia moccasin has the soft fabric upper, padded collar and insole, dual elastic gores, and cushiony outsole to bring you complete comfort and a great feeling. What's with the extra positive vibes? Since it's made from recycled materials, it'll not only do good for your foot, but for the environment, too.
I ordered two pairs of the 'unlisted' Kenneth Cole brand of shoes. This lace up and a sliip-on. The style was great. The shoes were comfortable straight out the box. I didn't have to break them in. I bought them slightly larger, just in case they ran small, but the size was spot on. I haven't noticed that my feet sweat any more than normal, contrary to what the other reviews say. I'm very pleased with this purchase. I now have an extra pair to use when these finally wear out. I'm planning on buying more.
I was so sad when my son outgrew these shoes. They look great with a suit, or khakis, and they stood up to the "boy-wear" test. My son wore them at least three times a week for months, and they looked so good when he was done that I was able to consign them. I hope to buy him another pair.
I LOVE THIS SHOE! This shoe has attitude and presence. It's fun and flirty. Every time I wear them I get compliments. But even if I didn't I'd still love the unique styling. The colors are great. The pink is cute without being juvenile. Surprisingly I can wear this with so many colors. The padded insole and thick (yet shapely) heel allows me to walk all day at work in comfort. I typically take an 8 1/2 or 9 in heels and I always take an 8 1/2 in Naughty Monkey shoes. Don't hestitate - BUY THIS SHOE! Actually - don't buy it so that I can be the only woman in them. :->
After A Few Days I Liked Them

I bought these shoes to replace my previous Shimano shoes which were a bad fit. The M225S are a pleasure to wear on long rides. The lightweight carbon heel/bottom makes the shoe feel strong yet very light. As with all Shimano shoes, cleat mounting is a breeze. The sockliner is also quite comfortable, not too hard and not too soft, and should fit most people unless you need orthotics. Energy transfer is excellent and I felt an instant improvement in my pedaling, most likely due to the stiff sole.
BOA tightening system is great. With clockwise turn of knob you tighten, doesn't bind or pinch and much more secure than the tri-strap variety. Shoe has 2 screened-over vents in sole so not a foul-weather option (unless you like wet feet). Works fine outdoors otherwise. Easy to loosen - just pull out on knob, then push in to re-adjust. Moderately stiff sole transfers less energy than a road shoe (maybe 80%), but still much better than a sneaker.
My feet kill me when I ride. After giving these cycling sandals a shot; for the first time in years, my feet don't kill me! I have tried different, pedals, cleats, shoes, and bought the best, but still no relief from the pain. Now, I can enjoy the ride, with much less pain. I love them :~)
These shoes are a great value for the money. They fit perfect on medium with, medium arch feet. The velcro straps allow secure fitting and are designed to be cut down if you need to (I've had other shoes where the straps seemed too short). The cleats fit easily and securely.
I've tried alot of different flat cycling shoes (661, 5 tens, etc..) and the Shimano SH-MP56L shoe are by far the best shoes I've ever used.
Recently purchased a pair of the SH-MT41G cycling shoes and I must say they are quite comfortable right out of the box! I was using clipless shoes but decided to go back to this style because I am more confident with this type of shoe/pedal system.I am a weekend cyclist and I'm in and around traffic and intersections alot so these shoes will definitely be the right set-up for that. I am not a "competitor/racing" type cyclist anymore but I still have the other pair if I should decide to go back to that but I kind of doubt that because these shoes are truly great! Nice fit and feel good on the pedals. Good job Shimano! And thank you to Amazon and Bike Somewhere for the quick service! I'll probably cycle alot more now. I did not buy the cleats and I don't think I will but they are available for this shoe.See,that's the other thing,I wanted a shoe I could use to bike with and walk with, without having an extra pair to take along on a bike trek. Multi-use touring bike shoes indeed.
Averaging about $100, the Bostonian Tahoe is a moderately-priced shoe sporting a high-end look. The shoe itself is manufactured in India, yet has a sheen that reminds folks of Italy.
These shoes are a perfect fit for me. Most of the time the W widths are not wide enough, but these fit like a glove. Craftsmanship ship is very nice. The bottoms are a little squeaky on hard floors until they get broken in.
This was my first ever on-line shoe purchase and I was very pleased. These shoes arrived in flawless condition due to the superior packaging. They fit and look better than I had expected and I will certainly order these again. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
I have been wearing Birkenstock, Papillio sandals for over 10 years. These Betula Sandals are not built the same. First, when I opened box, the smell of sandals is strong. Second, Made in China stamped on shoe. I looked at all the pairs I owned, all made in Germany. Third, after wearing all day, the sandal made my left second smallest toe hurt. I wear Birkenstock sandals everyday for over 10 years, never have I had any foot pain, until I purchased these. Also color of footbed and cork on these sandals as pictured above, is different than on the pairs I previously owned. Maybe China can't duplicate Germany's quality.
The order was promptly processed and I received the sandals as expected within a few days. However, the sandals were too small, so I returned them and ordered another pair. I returned the sandals about three weeks ago and have still not received a refund for the initial order.
I bought these because they were 100% shearling and not an artificial lining. I wear them mainly around the house as a slipper in MI. We have done some home renovations recently (ripping up carpet to expose the hardwood underneath) and that has caused some drafty-ness on the floor in winter. The boots are perfect and keep my feet nice and toasty. They are also comfortable. It isn't like there is arch support or anything, but it's the same as if I had been walking around barefoot, just with warmer feet.
Great fit, ordered a size 10, usually wear 9 1/2 shoe. Warm, comfortable and surprisingly waterproof. I was unable to order a similar brand due to unavailability and finally decided to try the Bearpaw. Thrilled, that I did, saved a boot-load of money for what I am sure is the same boot.
I love these boots. They are a little tight on the toe. Probably because they are pointed but I will still wear them because they look so good. I wasnt sure if I would like the crinkle look because Im so picky with clothes and shoes.. everything has to be just how I like it. But these boots are beautiful and great quality.
I got these as a christmas gift and was so excited to get them. They were intially very comfortable and I wore them for about 2-1/2 months and then noticed that my feet were getting wet, it turns out the sole has a crack in the bottom of both boots and the sole is also tearing away from the upper part of the boot. I have never owned any boot like this but it seems to me that the sole should be not only glued to the upper but also stitched. These boots are not stitched. I am very disapointed and I will be buying Uggs to replace these.
These boots are very comfortable and were for a great price. They also have a very textured sole so you can wear them in the snow without worrying about slipping. The sizes run a little small, so order a half size larger than your normal shoe size. The top of the boot is also pretty narrow so you won't be able to stuff anything other than skinny jeans into these boots. They keep your feet very warm, but even without socks, your feet can get a little sweaty. Overall though, these are great boots for a great price.
