These shoes were a good price (check around). I really like the way they look, and they are quite comfy. The shoes are very light weight. They might not stand up to wear and tear like some others.

These shoes are absolutely incredible. They came in one day they fit perfectly, and they are the most comfy shoes that I’ve ever owned. The leather on them is a bit shiny so they look really new and modern and they’re really light so you’re able to stand on your feet all day walk around and they’re really comfy. I would highly recommend this to anyone looking for all leather shoes.
Reviewer Diogo Silva
No laces of course, so these are not suitable for a trail hike, but they are light and comfortable and great for walking around town. This is my third pair.
Reviewer Dilpreet Singh
Great shoes. This is my second pair, they are so comfortable.

They fit like all converse. On the narrow and long side. Knowing this, I went a half a size down when ordering for my husband. So instead of his normal size 11.5, I got him an 11 and they fit perfectly.

I LOVE THESE! I was looking for something I could wear for workouts at home that weren’t heavy or bulky like my sneakers, but that had some support and traction. These were PERFECT! The men’s were the only ones I could find solid black in, so that’s why I got those over women’s. I guessed at the size, I’m normally an 11 or 11 1/2 in women’s and got a large, and they fit but still have a little bit of extra room, but it hasn’t bothered me. I’ve also used them at work a couple times when my work shoes were bothering my feet but I needed something, and these totally worked! Great product!

Puma's are nice shoes that always fit me great. They're also easy to find on sale, which makes them the price/performance king. They look quite nice, as well!
I purchased these to replace some Nike Sweet's that were a little too big for me. I think the Nike Sweet is a nicer shoe (more padding and softer, thicker leather, etc), but they also cost more. These Puma's are tagged the same size as the Nike's, but they run a little smaller (the footprint does appear a little wider, though). I own several pairs of Puma Suede's and these run about the same size as the Suede does.
Even though I think the Nike Sweet is a better made shoe, there's something about these that I just like better. For one, I think they look better and I'm just more comfortable in them. I wore the Sweet regularly as a kid, back when Nike originally released them, so that's why I purchased them first. When they didn't fit, I purchased the Match 74 to replace them and I couldn't be happier with them.

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.

I enjoy this shoe. I was looking for that flat skate shoe feel. I was not disappointed. The only reason that I didn't give a 5 star is that it was a bit shiny for what I wanted. The DC logo is awesome and I'm happy with this purchase.

First shoes I bought specifically for skating…they have held up for the small amount of times I have skated in them…
