Customer Reviews adidas Originals Superstar Foundation

I cannot even tell you how freakin amazed I am with this shoe. I had originally bought the white w/ black stripes but really wanted these, too. I am so pleased I got them. I mainly wear them at the gym because I do everything but run, so it makes me laugh to see everyone wearing those horrid running sneakers which I loathe. Note: bit of a warning for fellow lady folk when it comes to the black sneaker with the looser style capris... borders on cankles, and I don't have them, it just creates the illusion of possible canklage. Stick with the baggy pants or tight capris; for some reason they look awesome with those. Looks great with jeans, too. You cannot go wrong here.

Love these shoes. The shell toes are super classy and I have been getting non-stop compliments on them. In terms of fit, they run rather big and they are quite flat. I put a gel insole in them to take up space and provide a little shape and they are good to go!

Ridiculously high arches and the insole is glued into the shoe so I can't remove them and try my orthotics without damaging the shoe. If you have high arches you will love this shoe, but I have flat feet. It was the worst pain ever. Returned.

These shoes are a little stiff at first, but wear in quite well. I use them for swing dancing and they have a good mix of grip and slide on the wooden floor (I don't lose my footing, nor am I stuck to the floor). I really like them (this is my second pair). I typically wear size 7 and got a 6.5.

I was a big fan of the original Adidas Sambas when I was growing up in the 80's and 90's. Now, I've graduated to the Superstar 2, and they are just as comfortable as I remember my old Adidas to be. However, the major difference is that they provide more support (what I was looking for), and as much as I try to get them to look more worn in and dirty they continue to look brand new. While most Adidas are very flat soled (and this is no exception) I wear orthotics, so this is not an issue for me as they create all the arch support I need.

My Adidas Walk through concert doors And roam all over coliseum floors I stepped on stage, at Live Aid All the people gave an applause that paid And out of speakers I did speak I wore my sneakers but I'm not a sneak My Adidas cuts the sand of a foreign land With mic in hand I cold took command My Adidas and me both askin P We make a good team my Adidas and me We get around together, rhyme forever And we won't be mad when worn in bad weather Standin on 2 Fifth St. Funky fresh and yes cold on my feet With no shoe string in em, I did not win em I bought em off the Ave with the tags still in em I like to sport em that's why I bought em A sucker tried to steal em so I caught em and I thwart em And I walk down the street and I bop to the beat With Lee on my legs and Adidas on my feet And now I just standin' here shooting the gif Me and D and my Adidas standing on 2 Fifth Now Me and my Adidas do the illest things We like to stomp out pimps with diamond rings We slay all suckers who perpetrate And lay down law from state to state We travel on gravel, drit road or street I wear my Adidas when I rock the beat On stage front page every show I go It's Adidas on my feet high top or low Now the Adidas I possess for one man is rare Myself homeboy got fifty pair Got blue and black cause I like to chill And yellow and green when it's time to get ill Got a pair that I wear when I'm playin' ball With the heal inside make me ten feet tall My Adidas only bring good news And they are not used as selling shoes They're black and white, white with black stripe The ones I like to wear when I rock the mic On the strength of our famous university We took the beat from the street and put it on TV My Adidas are seen on the movie screen Hollywood knows we're good if you know what I mean We started in the alley, now we chill in CaliAnd I won't trade my Adidas for no beat up Bally's. My Adidas!

The fastest shipment I have ever had ordering online. I will try to buy again from here!

Great shoe; fits as expected. Couple notes on the arch: Others have described this shoe as having a high arch. It does only because the insole comes up the side wall. If you would rather have a flat fit like me, peel the insole out (there's a light adhesive, it will re-stick) trim the insole so that it backs off the side wall and put the insole back in. No problems after that! Flat as Allstars!

My favorite sneakers and they are the only sneakers I wear ever! Zappos is the greatest! Got them in 2 days!

I am very pleased with Zappos' service. The shoes came about three days after I ordered them and I was very pleased with my purchase!

Spring time and I needed new sneakers. Can't get more classic and Hip Hop than shell tops. This is my 1st pair. They look great. They do run a 1/2 size large so I ordered a 7 instead of 7.5 and they were perfect. I'm sure this will be the first of many colors I get. Love Zappos!

I was looking for a great price on these and I found the best price here. The shoes fit perfect and they look great. I used the men's size from my other black and white adidas and it worked out awesome! Also, I thought it would be like a week before I received them, but it was only 4 days.

Quick shipping of my favorite shoe at an awesome price and without the hassle of a shoe store.

Love these shoes in the New Navy. They fit exactly the same as they always have (I'm a woman 9.5 so the man's 8.5 was perfect). The New Navy color is really awesome. When I wore them with black, they actually looked more like a charcoal, but when I wore my navy track pants the looked more blue. Really versatile. And Zappos continues to be amazing. Ordered on a Sunday and they were here Tuesday morning.

These are my favorite shoes. I have bought them like three times now and I just love em. I have wide feet and they fit comfortably and the black on black looks great.

These were exactly what I wanted. My son had grown out of a pair he had and wanted the exact same shoe in a bigger size. It could not have been easier.

My 17 year old daughter loves these sneakers and has ordered a few pairs. They do run about a half size large, so she orders down to the 7 from her usual 7.5. She finds them extremely comfortable and wears them with everything. In my opinion, they are a good value and hold up really well to the almost daily use.

I am really happy with these shoes. I originally bought the gazelles, but had to return them because the tongue of the shoe was so uncomfortable. I've owned a pair of originals before and they're stylish and functional. Very pleased with my purchase.

Great casual shoe. It has little to no arch support which I expected with such a flat sole. The one thing I didn't like is it seems like this line of shoe is narrower than my other adidas of the same style. I would recommend this shoe to anyone, however if you're on the fence about what width to go with I would recommend going wider to ensure comfort.

I love them! I used to have a pair when I worked in a sporting goods store in high school. That was almost 30 years ago. They brought back great memories! They rock!!

I love these shoes. I've worn many pairs of these, but usually in white. It takes a couple squats to get the sole a bit more flexible; I find that common with most non running shoes. They're super comfortable. I love the way the look. Sizing is right on - true to size they claim. Zappos is a great source - free returns for a year (in case of wrong fit, etc.). I'll order again from Zappos.

Love these Adidas! They are true to my perfect tennis shoe size. Just like I remember them from back in the day! Next up will be some black stripes. I got these with the crimson red stripes this time.

I've been wearing this style sneaker for the last 12 years and they are still the most comfortable shoes I have ever worn. I even got married in them!

My 11 year old had to buy these for private school and he wants to wear them for everything. He says "they're the most comfortable."
