I normally wouldn't consider a synthetic leather shoe, because I'd never seen any that weren't awful in nearly every way possible. The only reason I considered these is because I needed shoes that fit very particular criteria and one of them was that they're synthetic. So I ordered a pair to evaluate them and the verdict is very positive.
It's not real leather, but it's close. It actually reminds me of cheap leather shoes, but without all the creasing (like comfortable Reeboks, which used loose leather for comfort). The rubber sole seems comfortable and the synthetic lining looks like it'll be easy to keep clean. It has average arch support and the insole is stuck in place, but it does offer good cushioning.
I ordered my normal sneaker size and it fits great, so I'd say the sizing is perfect (I wear a a half size larger in New Balance and sometimes with Nike). The laces are a little long, but just a little and they're nice laces.
Overall, they're nice shoes. No, they're not real leather and I didn't judge them as if they were. But there are some advantages with synthetic leather shoes and these will work great for those who understand they're not leather.

I'm a fan of Saucony shoes and having been wearing them for over a decade. I especially like their classics for their styling. I had an earlier version of this Bullet with a gray sole that I liked, but I love the new red sole even more.
The Bullets run small. For most shoes, I usually wear a size 10. For most Sauconys, it's 10.5. For Bullets, it's 11. They're also slender and not a good choice for wide feet. They're very flexible, but they're durable. The sole seems thin, but they're very comfy. After wearing this style, I'm having a hard time going back to the Jazz Low Pros, or any of the other styles - they seem really bulky.

These are the best sneakers I have ever purchased. Well worth the price. The support is perfect, my feet have not felt this good in years.

Love these shoes! I bought them for my husband, they look so sharp. Would love to get another pair in grey.

Arrived with the unexpected but much welcomed red and white stripes.
Reviewer Andrew S Cofrin
They fit true to size, they are comfortable, and the color (blue71) is so awesome. For $20, they are great. My only complaint is that one of the shoes is not centered, so the laces are off center. It's not enough to cost a star or send them back, I mean they're 20 bucks, you can't expect them to be perfect...

These sneakers look awesome in leather! The materials are quality and they appear very well made. They run at least 1/2 size smaller, and are pretty narrow. If you order the next size up, they might work a lot better for you.

These shoes took my back through memory lane as I laced them up with the extra pair of FAT laces that were provided.. That was a nice surprise! I will be ordering another pair of these once I scuff these up on these next few months of summer. Haha! Old School is the only school I know! Great buy! Fast shipping! All around excellent service! Thanks!!!
