My husband got these to referee in since his feet were constantly hurting. From the first day with these, he noticed a huge difference. He finds them very comfortable yet sturdy.

Bought these for my auto tech son, his third pair. On his feet up to 12 hours daily and found that these shoes are very comfortable. Work shoe and sneaker combined.

Wearing these to ymca. Fit is perfect. I bought 1/2 size larger than I normally wear and that worked out well with very roomy toe box that I wanted due to aging toenails.

The shoes seem well made and are very comfortable. I always insert orthotics in shoes, so I'm adding my own support. These are my first ever pair of shoes with elastic laces. They're difficult to tie. But, I'll keep using them for now. The climate in my area is very mild, so it won't be a tough test site for these shoes in hot or rainy weather. Good initial impressions.

Best shoes ever. I have been wearing this shoe for 15 years.

Increíblemente bueno
Reviewer Christine C Minton
Nice shoes but a full size too large. Ordered 12B. Wish they had a 12A it would be the only shoes I would buy and I have a lot of shoes for a guy maybe 25 pairs and these are as comfortable as my best and they are half the weight.

I bought these specifically for cycling with old fashioned toe clips, because I'm weird and I like to know about history and experience things. They were advertised as 10.5US, they are 44eu instead of 45 eu - meaning they "run small", and it's a small 44. I still fit in them, even if they are a tad tight and have been using them with an old peugeot PH11 with the original triangular pedals from the mid 1980's - that style inspired the Look system of "clipless" pedals famously introduced by Greg Lamond in the famous tour pursuit of the badger. Mostly, I just want to pursue coffee and sunshine.
I think these might be the best shoes you can currently buy for use with cycling toe-clips, without spending a fortune or getting shoes that are 20 years old and falling apart. If you're more accustomed to swing out clipless systems such as Look, CrankBros, or Spd, you will recognize immediately that toe clips are far inferior - it took me a few miles to stop yanking my foot out of the back as I tried to sweep through the bottom of my pedal stroke, and it's hard to remember to loosen the strap when coming to a stop. These Puma shoes are very similar to the old sidi shoes that used to be common in cycling, except there's really no stiffness at the end of the toes, and I could tell that I would get a blister on my big toe as a result, so I must meditate on rule 5 of the Velominati prior to using them. I wouldn't be surprised to learn that Puma took this shoe design from an old cycling shoe, the laces are shifted to the outside of the shoe and are easy to keep away from the cranks, while the foot bottom is as stiff as any modern cycling shoe. I think it would be hell to walk around in and I really can't comment on their utility as driving shoes.
The ferrari symbol is a regrettable attribute, as my place in society (AKA not a billionaire) would dictate that anyone wearing such driving shoes while tooling around in their ferrari not only has more money than sense, but likely has additional baggage that (fingers crossed) allows me to feel morally superior; which would make up for being hugely outclassed, financially. It's a kind of 99%'ers sour grapes, you know? If you are this person, please feel free to leave me validating comments about the woes in your otherwise blessed life. Mo-money mo problems?

They are perfect for gym workouts like deadlifting and squatting.
