Hubs loved! Came in the vans box, brand new and all. No odd smell or anything. Perfect fit ! Great price, found cheaper here then on other sites and fast shipping.

I have 10+ pairs of Cole Haan shoes and they're all great, but these are the most comfortable out of all of them.

These are great shoes. My wife gets the ghost series, but using the Brooks website, I was able to determine that this is the best series for myself. My wife and I like to walk, after my knee replacement surgery, I need a good shoe to avoid ever having to go through that again. These are great.

I bought these specifically for cycling with old fashioned toe clips, because I'm weird and I like to know about history and experience things. They were advertised as 10.5US, they are 44eu instead of 45 eu - meaning they "run small", and it's a small 44. I still fit in them, even if they are a tad tight and have been using them with an old peugeot PH11 with the original triangular pedals from the mid 1980's - that style inspired the Look system of "clipless" pedals famously introduced by Greg Lamond in the famous tour pursuit of the badger. Mostly, I just want to pursue coffee and sunshine.
I think these might be the best shoes you can currently buy for use with cycling toe-clips, without spending a fortune or getting shoes that are 20 years old and falling apart. If you're more accustomed to swing out clipless systems such as Look, CrankBros, or Spd, you will recognize immediately that toe clips are far inferior - it took me a few miles to stop yanking my foot out of the back as I tried to sweep through the bottom of my pedal stroke, and it's hard to remember to loosen the strap when coming to a stop. These Puma shoes are very similar to the old sidi shoes that used to be common in cycling, except there's really no stiffness at the end of the toes, and I could tell that I would get a blister on my big toe as a result, so I must meditate on rule 5 of the Velominati prior to using them. I wouldn't be surprised to learn that Puma took this shoe design from an old cycling shoe, the laces are shifted to the outside of the shoe and are easy to keep away from the cranks, while the foot bottom is as stiff as any modern cycling shoe. I think it would be hell to walk around in and I really can't comment on their utility as driving shoes.
The ferrari symbol is a regrettable attribute, as my place in society (AKA not a billionaire) would dictate that anyone wearing such driving shoes while tooling around in their ferrari not only has more money than sense, but likely has additional baggage that (fingers crossed) allows me to feel morally superior; which would make up for being hugely outclassed, financially. It's a kind of 99%'ers sour grapes, you know? If you are this person, please feel free to leave me validating comments about the woes in your otherwise blessed life. Mo-money mo problems?

The shoe fit pretty good except that the back was a bit too short and it wasnt as deep as hoped for the insert. Have a hard time finding shoes for size 17 long toe foot. Usually cant find a wide enough toe bow so have been trying the wide width. They were so close to being what was wanted, but did return the shoes. Burgendy/hemp is not as bad as red, but I'll wear most colors if I can just find the right fit.

Couple of years ago I purchased a pair of Skechers slip-ons and though I wore them everyday, they were dangerous. They would slip off, they provided no support, and countless times I came close to turning an ankle...still I wore them for several years. I decided enough was enough and I gambled on these slip ons, and LOVE THEM. They fit perfectly (size 13 narrow foot), they provide decent support and generous cushion. They are super comfortable and are very stable. I would not run in them, but they are great for all casual situations...even wore them to church when I was feeling really casual.
Reviewer Frank A Orr
My sister absolutely loved these. They are well made and the size was absolutely correct.
Reviewer Leonard Cain
Comfortable and durable. I recommend these shoes.
Reviewer H Campbell
The sizes seem to run 1/2 a size small. Very nice sneakers.
Reviewer Judy Juricek
Great shoe, It just was a little big.
