Like very much comfortable and holding up to daily wear
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.

I really love this shoe. I've had two pairs so far, because I liked the first pair so much I had to order a second. I haven't had any problems with wear and tear, and I wear mine every day. They're light and breatheable, which is something that I always have a hard time finding in shoes. My first pair got me through a rainy spring without any incidents, despite the super breatheable in-soles that I thought were going to be a problem. They're as water-tight as any other casual sneaker. They might seem a bit stiff when you first put them on, but they break in really well. Can't wait to get another pair.

Husband likes them and said he’d buy again

I've been wearing New Balance cross-trainers for years. They've always been great. These hiking shoes continue that experience.
I bought these hoping for some additional ankle support. Though concerned about the fit and not trying them on, I matched the size of my NB cross-trainers, and hoped for the best. No surprise, they fit just fine.
Looking at them you can tell these are not the typical/traditional heavy hiking boots. They're more of a slightly stiffer high-top sport shoe. Like a sport shoe, they are much lighter than a more traditional boot. They do provide good ankle support, and have a little bit more cushioning than a sport shoe in the sole and ankles. The soles, though Vibram, are also more like a sneaker sole, but seem to provide a very good grip.
All in all, I like 'em.

These are a medium brown color shoe that definitely qualify as a “sneaker” type shoe. They have what I’d call gum soles, but with a zig zag pattern for traction. Above the bottom, between the bottom and the upper is a cream white border around the entire shoe that is about 3/4 inch in height. The leather upper is a soft type leather that I do believe would get even softer with wear and break in, but even right out of the box, are pretty soft and comfortable. They do fit well for the size. The shoes come with two sets of laces, one that are a reddish-brown solid color, and the others are a brown/white two tone for styling. These are a mid-cut shoe that have good padding around the entry. These are very nice shoes that will be just the ticket for winter casual when you don’t want to wear regular runners or trainers.

If you’re looking for lightweight shoes. . . These are not for you. They have a weight of 13.33oz each. The heavier weight is due to the fact that the sole is rubber, and not plastic. The sole is certainly non-skid. There is nice padding on the footbed, and “reasonable” arch support. Unfortunately, there is very little padding around the ankle area. But the overall construction is fine.
I hate it when a listing, such as this, shows “Made in the USA or imported”. Believe me. . .Very few shoes are Made in the USA. . .. These. . . Like soooooooooooo many others. . . are Made in China. At the current price of 100 bucks, they are at least 75 bucks overpriced. But you’re paying a high surcharge for the brand name. Granted, these shoes are much better than the super cheap Chinese shoes you will find on Amazon being sold by Chinese companies.

Yours are a little tight.
Having a high arch I didn't expect much support. Adding my arch pass was a simple thing.
Now they got well. They always stretch and fit like a glove after a few weeks.
Soles last a good while.
Offer good protection from rocks and have good grip.
Reviewer Sandy Kishbaugh
All-time favorite trail shoe. Too bad the next model (Kiger 3) doesn't keep the same toe box.
Reviewer Ruth Worley
These are some sick shoes! The quality is superb and they look awesome with jeans and casual wear because of the sneaker style. They are the perfect pair for the high fashion gentleman in your life that also has a bit of edge and he will be sure to receive plenty of compliments.
