Great shoes. True to size and very comfortable. We bought for an 80's costume and now he wears them all the time.

Very Happy with them .Really comfortable and fit perfect.

The very best value in a durable, comfortable boat shoe. I wear them every day, all the time during cooler months, some of the time (when not wearing my wonderful Teva Katavi flips). This is my second pair, the first still not worn out after 9 years, but starting to look a bit shabby after a lot of wearings. Easy to slip on and off without having to sit or bend over, even with socks, but nice to wear without socks also in cooler weather. Pretty amazing shoes, great fit.

Great comfortable sneakers
Reviewer Coni Jo
I wear these to work every day. Even with the “memory foam” I still added a foam insert
Reviewer elaine herron
The shoe fit pretty good except that the back was a bit too short and it wasnt as deep as hoped for the insert. Have a hard time finding shoes for size 17 long toe foot. Usually cant find a wide enough toe bow so have been trying the wide width. They were so close to being what was wanted, but did return the shoes. Burgendy/hemp is not as bad as red, but I'll wear most colors if I can just find the right fit.

I find the Fitsmart Low comfortable and easy to wear around town. Support is not great, especially in the area around the ball of the foot; it almost feels more like a slipper than a shoe & you wouldn't want to go hiking or standing all day in these. They do run a bit long and narrow - I dropped 1/2 a size and added a width to get it to be perfect, which it now is. It's a very nice looking shoe and fits perfectly into the "dress sneaker" category. I'd buy them again, which I can't say for all of my shoes, but again I want to caution that they are not designed for all-day standing or extensive walking; they are casual, light-duty shoes.

The shoe did bend and twist but was lightweight which I really liked. I tried the shoes when my feet were painful and swollen. I liked it!

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.

Vans shoes fit consistently. I know the size I need, and just order.
