I bought them for my girlfriend. She liked them although they did get dirty very quickly.

These are really awesome shoes. My 13 year old daughter has worn them out and wants another pair.
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 Alex Foster
The most comfortable Brand of casual shoes I've ever worn. Can easily be worn with or without socks, look good in formal and casual situations. They last a long time, each pair I've had were well traveled and worn for 3-4 years before showing signs of wear and tear.

They are perfect for gym workouts like deadlifting and squatting.

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 3 year old who is in a size 9 right now and these are way too big on him. Even with thick socks. But we love converse and this isn't his first pair. They do run about a size too large but I knew that and was anticipating him growing into them. The brand is perfect for a rough and tumble little boy! We got the elastic laces for them too so they're easy to slip on and off (even when he grows into them the rest of the way) which makes them even better!

Good shoes - I enjoy them. They are absolutely flat so there is no arch support. If you are bothered by walking without the support you won't enjoy these, but they look and feel good otherwise and I can wear them all day. I wouldn't try and run in them!
Reviewer Ally Acker
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.

Nice shoe for the price, but price jumped a day after I added in my cart. Strange and unethical. No complains so far
