great stuff -
I received the shoes within less than 24 hours, VERY timely (expedited shipping selected) in perfect condition. The recipient of this gift was thrilled beyond belief, and notably suprised by the amount of comfort and support the Flyers offered. Thanks for a great shopping experience!

They fit tight and snug which is good in my opinion. Just makes putting them on and tying them a struggle. I bought these to skate in and because they're so damn fresh.

My son loves these shoes. They look great. If he's on his feet for a long time, however, his feet start to hurt - not a lot of support.

These shoes are excellent for the price! I usually wear a 6.5-7 and the 6.5 fit great. Like any shoe, they take a little breaking in, but are pretty comfortable after that. My only complaint is that they sometimes squeak when I walk. Overall, I am a very satisfied customer.

First off, these are NOT the Sandlot edition. Although they are almost identical, there are some differences.. There is no Secret Weapon tag on the inside... And the circle symbol on the side is completely different as well. That being said these are great shoes!! Super comfortable! And they look amazing! As much as they do look similar to Converses, they are much better. I can wear them all day without any discomfort! Definitely recommend them!

Classic look that catches people eyes but I had to rip the insole out because it had some funky arch to it. They were narrow at the toe before I removed the insole. Now they are dandy.

Love the style and fit. Definitely not for truly wide feet but better than Converse if your feet are on the wider side of average. The footbed is very comfortable for these type of sneakers.

Great looking shoes. Don't know if they would enable me to outrun a beast but that is a rare occurrence anyway. Arch support is not very good but better than chucks . They are not very durable already breaking down so use them while you can.

Decent shoe. Just spend a day running around in them and didn't have that "new shoe pain" you'd expect from them not being broken in yet. Ran big compared to what I was expecting, but fairly nice shoe all things considered.

They're great! Much better made than Converse All-Stars. The bottom of the sole comes lined with some kind of fiber, which makes them pretty slippery on smooth surfaces at first, but it wears off very quickly. I would kind of prefer if the seal wasn't so big and bright, but I wear pants most of the time anyway, so it's not really an issue.

These shoes are some of the most comfortable I've owned. I love the simplicity and style, especially as they're unique compared to the many Converse you see around. I did find that they've taken a little longer to break in than expected...I found that the rubber around the toe area needs some stretching out and forming to the shape of my foot. It's possible that they run a tad small. I don't take a wide shoe, and usually wear an 11.5 men's. I will buy again when these wear out, and will probably go a half size larger.

Slightly less than moderate arch support, fairly true to size (which, ironically, was surprising as I am used to this style being longer than size from my experience with Chuck Taylors). Still, pretty comfortable and definitely more arch support than Chucks. They are more distinctly black than they looked online (I was expecting dark shades of charcoal). Nothing too surprising, good or bad, and I'm happy with them. Just avoid compensating too much in size if you're used to buying Chuck Taylors.

I have to say these are the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn. The only bad thing I have to say about these is a flaw on the toe cap it had a long cut on it like someone took a knife to it but its not noticeable but other thank that a great shoe and they fit true to size.

Shoes were immediately comfortable. I ordered my usual size and there is a lot of room in the toe box, but they are still very narrow along the sides, so I wonder if I got the right size or not. Have not had to out run any giant gorilla dog things yet, so will report back later.

I really like these hi-top sneakers. Durable, comfy, well made and good looking with lot's of colorways to choose from. What separates these from Converse Chuck Taylor's are the mid sole. It's thicker and offers more cushion, as well as ribbed and more substantial at the toe guard. This lends the shoe a more substantial look and profile over a Chuck, and paired with the original PF styling cues make these shoes different then the Converse in two important ways. Their details and comfort. Both of which are just as well.
The price is right and I find these shoes to be true to fit for my size 12.5, D width feet. I fit size 12's, too. But like many shoes size 12 they are a bit snug, with 13's being a bit longer. But getting half sizes can be a challenge so I have these shoes in 12 and 13. Both sizes are just fine.

These are awesome looking shoes but they run quite large, which puts the arch support in the wrong place if you don't get the exact correct size. Also, they come laced "backwards," which is fine if you like that sort of thing.

Great shoes. I have had and liked the lows also. The inside of the heel wears out in a couple months, but they are otherwise great for the price.

I bought these shoes on a whim. I was amazed that my late night order arrived the next morning (the magic of Zappos strikes again). At first these were a tight and narrow fit. After a few weeks they have pushed wider but still feel a little snug up front. Overall they have been good shoes and are slowly becoming my general go-to-casual-shoes. After three weeks I have noticed that the outer wall on the left shoe is starting to pull away from the base without anything I would consider heavy use. Nothing some superglue cannot take care of though. They are good shoes overall and unusual enough to stray enough away from the Nike, Sketcher, Vans monotony.

I bought these to replace my Chucks. I originally bought them in the same size as my Chucks but exchanged them for one size bigger. After owning them for a couple months I notice the canvas separating from the rubber. No biggie, a little super glue fixed it. But shortly after that the outer rubber where you toes bend actually ripped downwards. As far as durability this pair I have isn't on par with the durability of my Chucks. I bought a back-up and once I've worn those for a bit I will write another review.

Wow...beautiful shoe. It is a substantially well made shoe. Although it feels tight around the toes, after a while it is unnoticeable. I recommend at least a half size larger. I love them.

Love these PF Flyers. I've bought 2 pairs for me and one for my dad. I've worn through both pair and am about to get my 3rd pair. Better than the overrated and ubiquitous Chucks. Just a great casual sneaker. I may entertain going for a run in them. I'm certain they're magical.

Good light shoe. I took the arch support out because it felt a little strange. If you are used to Converse, the PF Flyers are a little narrower near the toes. You should also order a half size bigger than your Converse shoe size.

The shoes that Benny Rodriguez wore as he sprinted towards the fence to escape the monster dog, recovered ball in-hand. Sandlot. His were black. These shoes seem higher in quality than the average Chuck. Definitely more comfortable, but not great for walking. It's frustrating for me to see width sizes stamped on the inside of a shoe that I can't find in any wider sizes, anywhere, but they look great. In my opinion this kind of shoe is only good for looks anyway. I like the Flyers in that there's history, the novelty of having a shoe from a movie I watched as a kid, and great style. Those of us who can play sports or walk comfortably in these things, I commend; I can't do either.

I purchased these for my child. He is into the "old school/retro" look. He really dug them for hanging out, but found they weren't the greatest shoe for shooting hoops and prefers more technically advanced shoes for that.
