I wish I would have listened to the reviews that said to size down. I saw that only 15% or so said that (according to the statistics), but it's definitely true. I had to return them and I don't have time to get the right size before leaving on a trip, for which I wanted the shoes.

These are a lot brighter of a pink than pictured, but I love them more because of that. They have great arch support and are super comfy. They have a little bit of a lift, which I also love. Can't wait to wear these!

I normally wear a 6 in regular shoes and a 6.5 and athletic shoes. These fit like a 7 - like clown shoes on me - ginormous. I will try to find them either in a 5.5 or boys sizes.

This is a great sneaker from Adidas, especially if you need more room in the toe box. They are extremely comfortable to wear all day. They do, however, run large. I normally wear a 5-1/2 shoe and sneaker, but needed to order these in a size 5.

I love these shoes! Perfect for spring. The pink is very bright-thinking of getting matching shoelaces to change the look. Very comfortable for walking in while do errands and still look cute!

These shoes are awesome they are truly comfortable. They are so comfortable that I have six pairs in a different variety of colors.

I previously ordered it from the Adidas website in my normal size but it was too large then I returned it and they didn't have any size smaller. Coming here I knew to order 1/2 a size smaller. They look really nice, and I'm very satisfied with them although they are a little snug width wise. I feel like I'll be buying a similar same brand pair of shoes soon from this site.

Just classic, I always get compliments. The classy yet comfortable sneaker option. I'd say they run a little big.

I was hesistant to purchase these at first. However I took a chance and they fit perfectly. I had surgery on my left foot so it is a bit wider than my right and I was tired of buying shoes that did not fit comfortably but these are great. I am definitely going to purchase them in black. They stretch to conform to my foot. Also they run about a half size too big so order a half size down.

Awesome shoes.
Great shoes fit like a charm and knockout looks. Gotten several compliments on them already. Great arch support (exactly what I needed after years of wearing skate shoes). Durable, I'll probably be wearing these shoes three years from now. Super-fast shipping for FREE from Zappos, will be buying from them again. I'll never go back to the mall.

Sweet Stuff -
I thought they were just real casual when I bought them but they are nice for any sport. Plus Zappos shipped them to me in a few days.
I love Zappos.

Im a solid size 10. This shoe fits way bigger than a 10, more like an 11. I will pass these shoes on to my daughter who is an 11. They are cute and very retro-early/mid 80's. I will get another pair in a smaller size!

Love these shoes! After reading other reviews about sizing, I ended up ordering an 8 & 8.5 and I normally wear a size 9 in Adidas. The 8.5 was to long in the toe for my feet and my heel kept slipping when I walked in them around my house. The size 8 fit me perfectly without the sloppy feeling of the the 8.5. I do have a wider foot, a high arch and found them to be comfy after I broke them in.

Delightful experience -
The shoe is great. The only problem I have is a little discomfort with the width. I suggest you buy either a half size bigger or a whole size bigger to accommodate your feet. Overall, great shoe.

These shoes look great and are very light weight. They are pretty narrow and don’t have great support, but they seem to be very casual and not meant for athletics, so in that area they do not disappoint.

Always a sure bet!
I love these shoes...I had pair after pair of the Somoas and I always come back. A little narrow feeling at first but leather stretches nicely. I did have to order a size larger but not because of the shoe - only I was thinking that because it was a tennis shoe I should order a size smaller than my regular shoe size.

Cool look -
I love the look of these shoes, but comfort wise, they are not quite as comfortable as a running or walking shoe like New Balance or some others. I wear these to school all the time, but wouldn’t want to run around in them. They stay clean and look great.

Samoa - Cute and great Arch Support -
You can successfully wear this shoe if you need a good arch support for heel or foot pain. I can wear this as an alternative to Danskos when I want a casual shoe.

Happy with the Samoa LE -
This is one pair of shoes that I would recommend to anyone who loves the old school Adidas look. They fit quite well for me, but for those who need a lot of arch support should invest in Dr. Scholl's.
If you really like this shoe, be sure to order as soon as possible because it seems that the colors are very limited these days. I have the white with black stripes. My original choice was the white with Carolina blue which was out of stock. My next choice was white with wheat, which also happened to be out of stock.
If you want a great shoe at a great price, then look no further than Zappos. They offer free next day shipping.

Like 'em, don't love 'em -
I really, really like the look of these shoes. I rate the comfort a little lower because they are pretty narrow, which I believe Adidas is kind of known for, but I'm going to stick with them anyway. If you don't have a wider foot then I think you'll love them.

Couldn't squeeze into the Samba so I got these -
Tried the Adidas Samba but it was too narrow for my extra-wide, size 14 feet. Got these instead. Just barely enough width in the front.

Great looking shoe...but had to return it cause I have a wide foot and it hurt within 20 minutes of wearing them. If your foot is on the narrow side, this is a great shoe for you! They are super cute! But wide foot girls unfortunately no. So sad I had to return them.
