Love the look. High quality materials all around and the slip-on technology is awesome. Would order a half size larger.

I started with a Men's 9, returned & got a Men's 9.5, then returned it & ordered a Men's 10. They fix well & are very comfortable. I am very happy.

These may be the most comfortable sneakers I've ever owned. The leather quality is second to none, as are style and the overall construction. I would add that if you're thinking of buying them you should order a half-size larger than you usually wear. In addition to looking great, the patented titanium-spring heal is genius. You never have to touch these shoes. Simply slide your foot in, the heel section gives way, then springs back into place when your foot is in. To take them pff, simply touch the heel with the toe of your other foot and your foot slides right out. If you don't want to be bothered with laces, hate the look of those blocky sneakers with velcro straps and want to look great, these are definitely the sneaker for you.

I had purchased these shoes at brick and mortar retailer before. I fortunately knew the correct size and model prior to Zappos.

My husband LOVES these shoes. They were a bit narrow at first but not to the point they were uncomfortable. They did stretch out nicely and he is wearing them to work. Their dress code is business casual and these shoes are perfect.

I love this brand and this shoe. this is the second Kizik shoe I bought. But like the first one, I plan to exchange this one too for a new pair. Despite the comfort, durability, and appearance, all my Kizik shoes I purchased had either a squeak when i walk or a leather, gripping sound that is obvious to everyone around. The sounds all come from the heel. The gripping leather sound even has the accompanying feel as my foot bends -- like the shoe is experiencing highway rumble strips. Hopefully my exchanged pair will be just fine -- as was my previous exchanged pair.

This is my third try on this shoe. I like the shoe, but it is still a bit snug. I'm going to try another pair another half size larger, which makes it one and a half size larger than I usually wear.

Unfortunately, these shoes did not work for me. I really like the style and colors, and the F.A.S.T. slip-on, snap-back heel. However, the way the inside of the heel is constructed rubbed and irritated my heel after I wore them around the house for a few hours. There is a large seam at the back of the heel and a corner of leather that rubbed on the upper part of my heels, toward the inside just below my achilles. Additionally, the insoles are extremely thick, about 1/4 inch at the toes. This might be good cushioning for some people who have more shallow feet than me, but I had to put some old hiking boot soles in the Kiziks to create enough room around the toe box and vamp for me to wear them. I contacted Kizik directly asking if they had alternative soles, but they do not offer them and politely told me they have other customers that switch the soles all the time and I should do the same. It seems to me that if they are aware many customers do that they should consider providing a different sole. I'm sad these shoes didn't work for me, because the style and slip-on technology are exactly what I was seeking, and they appear to be well-built. I'll keep an eye on them to see if they make any changes.

I normally wear a men's size 9, but they crowded my toes while wearing socks. I'm returning them for men's size 9.5.

I went a half size up based off of the recommendations from other reviews (I wear a size 10 normally so I bought a 10.5). I wish I bought a 10 as I think these shoes run true to size. I guess the people with wider feet are having trouble and need to go up a size. My foot width is D which is normal. Keep in mind the shoes are adjustable with velcro on both sides of the tongue. I decided to keep the 10.5s because I was able to make the adjustment, but not ideal. Otherwise I love the style and the slip on feature. This is a quality shoe.

I liked the design and overall construction. The shoe is light weight and seemingly made well. This is the first show I’ve purchased in 10 years that I’ve had to return because it wasn’t my standard size. I’m a 10.5 (44 Eur) all day long. I reordered an 11 and it seems to fit well. Comfort rating was due to the size issue.

Fit perfect right out of the box. I needed a pair shoes for walking that would not cause blisters on the ball of my feet. Every other shoes I had would develop blisters after about 2 miles. I have worn these shoes nearly everyday since I bought them and have no blisters. These are best fitting, most comfort shoes I have. I am going to buy another pair!

The most awesome shoe purchase in years. Slips on easy. Comfort plus. My wife said they look great. A bit pricey, but worth it. Totally happy.

I have this shoe in two different colors and love them. Very comfortable, but they run small. I needed a full size larger than what I would normally wear.

I normally wear a men's size 9, but this shoe required me to buy a 10. I love the way they fit & easily slip on without foot movement inside the shoe. I decided to buy a New York in size 10 in Coffee/Gum.

My husband LOVES these shoes because his knees and back make it hard to tie shoes. They really work! They slip right on! He normally wears a 12, but we returned for a 13 and that size fit better. Now, it looks like Zappos doesn't carry the 13.

I really liked this shoe but it doesn’t come in a wide. I liked the ease it went on, liked the spring action that brings the heel back in place, I liked the style. Nothing to not like. Just needed a little more with.

I bought these for my husband, who has bad back problems and had difficulty bending over to tie his shoes. Well, he hasn’t stopped raving about them since he tried them on! I read a number of the reviews and took the advice to get a half size up and they fit him perfectly! He normally wears an 11 1/2 so I got him the size 12. I got him the grey pair and he LOVES the look of them, as well as the excellent arch support. They’re stylish enough to be worn with a good pair of pants and nice jacket, as well as jeans and a tee shirt. He’s not a consumer and hates to shop, so I was thrilled to see him so happy with something as simple as a pair of sneakers! I will definitely be getting them in another color!
