Samba OG Mens Lifestyle Shoes (White/Grey)

Reviewer Janel Fortier

Best running shoes I've ever owned. Exceptional cushioning.

Reviewer H Mary Cork

I normally wouldn't consider a synthetic leather shoe, because I'd never seen any that weren't awful in nearly every way possible. The only reason I considered these is because I needed shoes that fit very particular criteria and one of them was that they're synthetic. So I ordered a pair to evaluate them and the verdict is very positive.

It's not real leather, but it's close. It actually reminds me of cheap leather shoes, but without all the creasing (like comfortable Reeboks, which used loose leather for comfort). The rubber sole seems comfortable and the synthetic lining looks like it'll be easy to keep clean. It has average arch support and the insole is stuck in place, but it does offer good cushioning.

I ordered my normal sneaker size and it fits great, so I'd say the sizing is perfect (I wear a a half size larger in New Balance and sometimes with Nike). The laces are a little long, but just a little and they're nice laces.

Overall, they're nice shoes. No, they're not real leather and I didn't judge them as if they were. But there are some advantages with synthetic leather shoes and these will work great for those who understand they're not leather.

My new K-Swiss tennis shoes are awesome absolutely no complaints

Reviewer Norma Chavez

These have been my go-to tennis shoes for years. These shoes get replaced every year(time not looks)to ensure proper fit and support. I wear them with orthotic inserts.

I have the “Black Nappa” color.

These are very stylish shoes. A little “fancier” than other such sneakers. But they are not really lightweight. They weigh about a pound each.

The sole is rubber, which is 1 of the reasons the shoe is as heavy as it is. Nice tread on the bottom.

The footbed has nice padding, but as it shows on the listing it is “dense”. Another words it is fairly firm padding. There is slight arch support. Almost nonexistent. There is some padding around the ankle.

I think of the shoes more as casual shoes and certainly not a sports shoe. But they look really great, and I like them a lot.

-) But this is entirely a personal observation. I didn't lower my rating for it.

very comfortable I love it ..I have it in blue and gray

I typically wear a wide shoe and this one's advertised as a medium width so I knew the risk I was taking... Sure enough- if you have a wide foot, do not order these. That being said they do fit, just too snug for me. I did test them though and they're very comfortable to walk in and they are extremely lightweight. Highly recommend them if you have a normal to slimmer foot!
