Reviewer An Old Thelemite
Fits nice, looks good.
Reviewer Ally Acker
These are very nice shoes. They're comfortable and they look nice. I have some other Simple shoes that are similar and I love them too.
The sizing seems true-to-size to me. I normally wear a 10.5-11, and like all of my Simple shoes, I ordered an 11 with these. They fit very well, as expected.
I know one of the criticisms is that they easily fall apart, but that doesn't surprise me. A tag on the shoe claims the outer soles will biodegrade within 20 years, while the outer soles on some other shoes will last 1,000 year. Considering how Simple shoes are made with recycled materials, I never expect them to be very durable shoes.
However, I don't wear the same pair of shoes every day and I don't wear my Simple shoes for outdoor activities. I have several pairs of various Simple models and they're all still holding up well. These may be an athletic style of shoes, but I wouldn't wear them for athletic purposes, not just because they probably wouldn't hold up long, but also because they're probably not the best shoes for that purpose. I guess my point is that while I'm sure they do tear up quickly with frequent wear, I don't wear mine as an everyday shoe, or an athletic shoe, and they seem to be holding up fine.
Overall, I'm very pleased with all of my shoes of this brand. They're all very comfortable and have a nice, somewhat original look about them. My only complaint is that the price tag is often too high, but they're not difficult to find on sale.

My son is so oddly picky about his shoes and these are classic and perfect.

i wish i would have bought some sooner. Most true to size shoe ive ever owned. The material is ridgid enough to slip on without using my hands but firm enough to where my feet dont move or slip out while walking. I also appreciate the wonderful insoles in them. I hiked 3 miles in these comfortably. I initially bought these as house loafers but bought another outdoor pair cuz i liked them so much.

This is a nice pair of low ankle cut camo shoes for someone that does not want a pair of distracting bright colored shoes. The sole has medium flexibility and is good for all day regular play, but probably not the best for playing sports all day with friends. The sole has several layers and the rubber exterior of the sole extends high around all sides of the shoes, especially over the toes, less chance of getting your shoes wet from wet pavements, very nice! Also, it has a good medium arch support.
Made in China.

Canvas is very comfortable. The sole padding is outstanding.

I liked the shoe but my granddaughter had the wrong size. It received the shoes but they were way to big. I returned them (I thought) but when I tried to mail them back I was told they were shipped from Fife, UK and it would cost me
$58.00 dollars to mail them back. Can Amazon give me another address in the states so I don't have to pay that? I have since ordered the right size.

I bought them as a gift for my husband. He wore them when traveling overseas and walked a lot.
The leather is stylish and elegant. He loves them a lot.

Authentic Vans. Classic checkerboard style. Sizing is 100% accurate in width and length.
These shoes offer zero arch support so if you are over 40 or have arch issues, you may not appreciate how righteous these are. I fall into both categories and still grin and bear it.
