These shoes are very comfortable! I ordered 2 more pair in different colors!
Reviewer J Henshaw
Amazing comfort. They may seem a bit tight when you first put them on, but as the memory foam adapts to the bottom of your foot the fit is great for me.
Reviewer N Bissell
The fit, construction and materials all seem first rate. I enjoy a 3 mile walk several times a week & Adidas Strutter Crosstrainers seem to breathe better than my old faithfuls. Cushioning is good.
Reviewer David L Remund
Great shoes, been wearing these for years.
Reviewer Karl E Martell
The color of these is phenomenal, and the stitching is excellent. I really like them. I bought them for my daughter, who collects them, and she's so pleased with the color.

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?

Reviewer Arlene P Hubbard
Absolutely gorgeous shoes! The quality is simply unmatched. I mean, really! These are quality shoes with style! Every pair I buy - FRYE.
Reviewer Basma A Aljenaie
I walk on concrete all day and these have held up well for me. I use lock laces with these and they fit perfect.

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.
