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.

I only ordered these because I found a great deal on them. Normally I would have passed, but I love Simple brand shoes and figured it was worth the risk. I'm really glad that I did, because I like them much better then I expected. They look better in person then in the pictures and they're very comfortable.
I'd say that they fit true-to-size, although if you're in between sizes, I'd suggest that you go with the larger one. The width is pretty average too. I do wish these had more arch support, but they're not bad as is.
Overall, I'm as pleased as I always have been in the past with this brand.

Good walking shoes with good support.

I got these shoes for work because I needed all black shoes and none of the ones I found were stylish or cheap. I ended up buying these which were $50 but honestly it was worth it. Most of these all black work shoes fall apart within a month but I've had these for a little bit longer than a month and they're still in perfect condition. They are comfy, they are easy to put on and take off, and they are low-key stylish.
I'm obsessed with the fila brand, especially this style of shoe and I was so happy to find black for work.

I like the look and feel of these shoes. Very simple and low, comfortable basic sneakers. They look good, even though there is so much rubber on the sides. The fit is perfect in my experience. I usually take a 13 in sneakers and often a 12 in boots, but with some sneakers I have to worry about the width - not a problem here. These fit right, don't cramp, but also don't leave my heel lifting in the back.
The prices are all over the place depending on the size you get, but these seem like a steal when your size happens to be on the inexpensive end of that scale.

Love these, wish I could have afforded to buy 2 pair! Also would love to have in Black, Brown and Navy suede colors!
Reviewer A Weaver
I'm trying to remember when i had these. I never left a comment. I loved these til they fell apart. I am pretty hard on my poor shoes. They lasted longer than I thought.
Reviewer R Padilla
These are quality shoes that fit my son perfectly and he has no trouble changing out the wheel....it took him no time to learn how to use them and now my daughters want some too
Reviewer Brigid Skelton
These shoes were purchased for my husband to wear in the house. I searched for a slip on sneaker with a white sole. He was pleasantly surprised with the fit and comfort. He’s very picky about his shoes. No complaints. They appear to be made very well. True to size. He wears a size 12 and the 12 fit perfectly.

How cool are these, really? WAY COOL!
