Great for social events!

Comfortable, lightweight and waterproof. They don’t breathe as well as expected. I had an older and no longer available shoe from HH that I replaced with this shoe. The older shoe was the best shoe I have ever worn. Seriously, the single best. This one looks nicer, but isn’t quite as comfortable and doesn’t breathe as well as my old shoe. Wish I had bought more pairs when the old one was still available.

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 Poppy15
I plan on getting another pair soon with a different color. They fit perfect. They even arrived earlier than the estimated delivery date !
Reviewer Tonya Dorsey
Fit as expected. Comfortable once broken in.

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!

I bought these for my husband for Christmas and he wears them every day.
Reviewer Trent Vanegas
This product is very appealing as well.

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.

New Balance makes such nice and affordable shoes. The material does get dirty easily and is hard to clean unless you have the "show cleaners." Pretty sure people can find a crafty way to DIY clean these without having to buy a shoe cleaner, I just have not taken the time to see for myself.
