Customer Reviews PF Flyers Center Hi Re-Issue

Awesome Shoe - I got the Black on Black sandlot versions. Haven’t taken them off since I got them. Much sturdier than converse.

Good shoes, but not quite PF Flyers..... Being a fan of The Sandlot, I was hoping to actually get a pair of PF Flyers like the ones in the film. Of course, I could not find those anywhere, so I had to settle for these "re-issues". They are sure comfortable and they fit well, but as for the look, it's just not the same. The PF patches are on the wrong sides, and the sole has a redone pattern that is nowhere near as cool as the original checkered pattern. Hopefully, someday, I will be able to find an original pair, or the manufacturers will re-issue the original style. Until then, I'll be left overall disappointed, and these will "have to do".

Great feeling play shoe! I am a grandmommy and I enjoy playing with my grandchildren. I really needed (wanted) a pair of red high top sneakers. I had tried on several name brands, which incidentally cost more, but they were not comfortable because they had NO ARCH support. My PF Flyers feel great! I can wear them all day and my feet are still happy!

Jump higher! Run faster! Guaranteed. :o) Bought the Sandlot version of these sneakers for my husband. He loves them and is the envy of all the guys at the office. Thank you Zappos.com!!! You guys are the fastest on the net. We're pretty much convinced that your whole team must be wearing PF Flyers.

Great hi tops - I find these a lot more comfortable than Converse, mostly because of the arch support and a thicker sole. If you're switching from Converse, though, make sure you order a full size larger (Converse 8 equals PF Flyer 9). For lo tops, I prefer Converse. PF Flyers lo-tops are cut quite low around the instep and so always feel like they're coming off.

Teenage Retro Heaven - This is the only thing my 16-year old son wanted for his birthday. He loves them. We were quite impressed by the speed of delivery, too. (Virtually overnight!) Extremely surprised and pleased with this purchase.

PF Flyers: Still Great After All These Years - My son was wearing converse for a couple years. There is little support in the shoe. PF Flyers have support and look as good. Also, they come in some great fabrics. My 15 year old has the tweed, leather and canvas versions of PF Flyers.

Reliving my youth - The sneakers look and feel great. They are true to size and are well put together.

Great look and comfy - Great deal... love the classic look and the inner sole is soooo soft... I am flat-footed... And I usually need more support, but the inner soles worked alright compared to other shoes.... it's worth the buy.

Pleasantly surprised! I ordered these and was worried they would not fit due to a great percentage of user reviews saying they did not fit "true to size". I ordered the size I have always worn and they ended up fitting me perfectly! The arch support is incredibly comfortable and I also like that they have an extra grommet for the laces vs. chucks. My only complaint is that the white rubber tip located in front of the shoe pushes down on the toes making it somewhat uncomfortable when you sit down. I barely got these today, so maybe they need breaking in.

Sweetest hightops ever - I bought a pair of these in 2002 and they just now got to the point where I needed to replace them. These shoes are comfortable, retro, they break-in really well, and last a long time. I've never owned Converse high-tops and as long as these are still available, I never will.

P.F. FLYERS REALLY GREAT! I wore these when I was a kid. These shoes feel true to size and they look great, are comfortable and they have a great arch!

Great shoe! Being an avid fan of 'The Sandlot", I HAD to get a pair. They look great, feel great, and have a rich history to them. It has a good, beat up look, but stays strong. The only set back is the bumpy front part of the shoe, which I really like, wears out after a while. This is much better than any other Chuck Taylor hi top or all black shoe. 10 out of 10.

Move over, Chuck - Back in the 50's, only the rich kids could get their parents to spring for the $5.95 for a pair of Chucks, and hightops across the board were priced even cheaper than lowtops because the wearer was agreeing to advertise the brand with the rubber disc on the side. With converse, even the disc used to be genuine rubber, but lately more plastic has crept into the manufacturing, and this plasticated rubber is not so soft and flexible and comfortable and it never takes on the yellowish patina of aging like the all-rubber sneakers. The PF's are all genuine rubber with good sticky soles that do not slip on water like the latest Converse do. The look is genuine retro. I feel like a schoolboy again, with all the freedom we did not enjoy in Buster Brown's. The disc being "on the wrong side" is a deserved slap in the face to the market leader of regimented conformity. I like displaying my individuality. I would like the PF better if I could cinch up the lacing better at the top, so that the ankle would fit more snugly. The other PF's I got, the Grounder, have the same problem. I'm still gonna wear em to the rodeo. I saw Ian Wright wearing peanut color PF Center hightops on the Turks and Caicos episode of Globe Trekker, and I strongly approve of this embedded advertising. I personally like the glaring contrasst of the black canvas with the stark-white rubber, and the way the white ages to become more the color of my new natural color PF Grounders. You could try marketing the black Center with rubber foxing tape and toecap that are already off-white, tannish in color, because some boomers like sneakers better if they do not look brand new! There are many variations and makers of this the single most classic style of sneaker across the planet, and I like it when people have to ask me what kind mine are and where can I get them! Many college kids were never allowed by their parents to wear this kind in high school, and these are the first ones they put on when they come to college, away from home.

Great Shoes - The PF Flyers are great shoes. They are very comfortable and durable. They are easily confused with Chuck Taylor hi-tops, however, the PF Flyers have a distinct style all their own. The sole of the shoe actually has support and is very comfortable on the foot; unlike Chuck Taylors which have no support. If you are looking for great shoes go with these or Chuck Taylors.

So stoked!! First I was stoked to find that these shoes are still made! I wore Vans and Chucks most of my life and my dad told me he used to wear PFs when he played basketball in school so I remembered that during my search for new kicks! I was a bit skeptical when I saw the price but I thought hey you only live once! Well they really did get here the next day and came in a vintage box that was very cool, but me being a large footed person had to put them on right away. Perfect! All I can say! Better than vans or chucks! Feel a bit bigger than normal and I’m a true 15. Not too narrow either. Cool factor 10.hehe run faster jump higher! I’m gonna get a few more pairs real soon in case they go outta production. Hang loose!

Awesome shoe! Looks great, feels great, and performs great. I have converted from Chucks to PF Flyers. PF's have arch support which I like. Plus I can wear my PF's when it rains without having to worry about slipping around. I'm in love with PF Flyers! I even bought my friend a pair for Christmas. And I have purchased 2 more pairs within a month and a half span =)

Very comfortable - The shipping was really overnight. Also they are very comfortable with a good arch support and much better quality than converse. Highly recommend!!

I love PF Flyers! They make me jump higher and run faster than any other kid on the block...Plus ordering from Zappos was great. I got the package quickly, and the shoes were awesome!

PF Flyers- Really enjoying my new shoes, really fast delivery and good service. Thanks.

Sandlot Shoes - These shoes were purchased for my 16 year old son. He has wanted these shoes since he was about 8 years old and saw the movie Sandlot, but we were unable to find them. My son is into a lot of different types of sports, in particular skateboarding. These shoes function as well as his skate shoes. He loves them!

Old School Way Cool - My musician son had seen pictures of my basketball shoes when I was a kid. He really liked how unlike anything on the market they looked. He asked me about the various pictures and old school shoes. We first went with Chuck high tops but they became too common. We then returned to the pictures and he inquired about the other shoes. The PF Flyers really caught his eye. He goggled for the PF Flyers and landed at the doorstep of Zappos. He wanted every color they had but I think black was the only color in his size in stock. We bought them and they fit him like a glove. Onward we went to buy the remaining missing colors. The Zappos folks truly made this shopping experience worth my while. The staff was excruciatingly friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. In total I think we bought five pairs of these PF Flyers. With free shipping this was a great experience. I highly recommend the PF Flyers and absolutely recommend Zappos.

Good, but a feel a little small/narrow - Overall what I expected. Put comfort a little lower, because I think they're a bit narrow and overall felt a little small. I'm a pretty true size 13, and don't normally have issues but they did bother my feet a little, especially at first. They look great, and are breaking in.

Not for fat feet - These are cool looking shoes, but if you have feet wider than B width, they won't fit!
