Good price, good product, especially the flexible laces are welcome

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?

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.

Nice looking shoes, pretty comfortable so far. A little bigger than expected, maybe half a size but they fit well enough.

The Skechers Haniger Cassipi Sneaker is comfortable enough for exercise and handsome enough for more dressy use. I only wish it was available in brown or some other colors besides black and whites.

For 40 bucks I didn't think these would be much, but my first take is that they seem well made and are super comfortable. Don't know how they will hold up, but they say they are machine washable, which is a huge plus if they come out of the wash in good shape. Very good packaging, great price and fast delivery. I'm not able to tie laces anymore and slip on shoes are a new must for me so if you're in the same boat, I'd say give them a try.
Reviewer Phillip Dundas
The width and memory foam inserts make the shoe very comfortable. I have worn them for only 3 days so far. I hope the inserts hold up over daily use.
Reviewer Douglas B Murray
I LOVE VANS!! Best shoes ever!

These shoes are just like the ones you see in the dollar store, only the quality is far better. I liked the fact the soles were a bit thicker, and that the insoles were cushiony and comfortable. The best part about these shoes is that they are made of canvas, and are great for art projects-specifically for painting. I use an acrylic paint, and it applies so nicely to the shoe. The sizing is close to American sizing, albeit just a tad narrower. They wash well, and hold up fairly well as a daily wear. Not a bad deal at all on these kicks!
