The shoes seem well made and are very comfortable. I always insert orthotics in shoes, so I'm adding my own support. These are my first ever pair of shoes with elastic laces. They're difficult to tie. But, I'll keep using them for now. The climate in my area is very mild, so it won't be a tough test site for these shoes in hot or rainy weather. Good initial impressions.

Great shoes, been wearing these for years.

Exact replacement of spouse's diabetic shoes from the orthotics clinic. Best way to replace your diabetic shoes since Medicare will only buy one pair a year.

Purchased to wear at the gym.They took one afternoon to break in.I used to wear the saucony kinvara which cost around $100,and has a 4mm heel to toe,which made the cartlidge on my heel hurt after running on the treadmill.The Propel Vista has a 8 mm heel to toe which seems to have stopped my heel from hurting after each run on a treadmill.The Propel Vista is described as a street runner,but they work great for treadmill running,and they only cost $40 ,and are just as comfortable as Saucony's more expensive runners.Will purchase again.

I watched my 83 year old husband struggle to put on his shoes and get them laced up. I recalled seeing a shoe that solved this problem. Amazon had it! They have totally saved the day! I ordered a pair for myself, a half size larger as suggested, and am thrilled with them. I had two strokes this year and these shoes are a lifesaver, so very comfortable and give me stability and so perfect in every way.

That's different from other folks with "regular" feet. The bones below my toes are exceptionally wide and yet I have a very narrow heel so many shoes just don't fit me well at all. If I get the toe box area wide enough to accommodate my foot, then the heel area is too wide. I usually use those sticky pads in the heel area to make it snug on my heel. Otherwise I walk out of the shoe. This pair, because they go above my ankle, bypasses the too wide of a heel section. I put on a pair of medium socks (not too thin or too thick), loosened the laces and did have a tiny bit of trouble getting my entire foot in the shoe, but once I did, I laced the shoes up medium-tight and walked around. Usually with shoes I have an initial bit of discomfort - the tops or the soles are stiff or my big toe hits an odd spot inside the shoe or whatever. Not so with these shoes! Aside from listening to a bit of interesting creaking/squeaking from the tops of the shoes when I took a step, the toe box area seemed wider than average shoes and my foot felt very comfortable in the area with no squeezing or discomfort in any way. My heels did not seem to slip around inside the shoes at all, maybe because these shoes hold the ankle fairly still. The leather seems to be of high quality - it has that good smell of quality leather and while leather itself doesn't breathe, the ventilation holes on the top of the toe box and around the ankle area seem to be able to keep the foot cool. I wanted this pair because my left ankle often tries to give way on me due to an old injury. I had a tendon tear so badly several years ago that when it tore, it make a loud crack sound that made me believe I'd broken something. It took over 12 weeks just to be able to put weight on that foot again. Tendons never completely heal so when the weather changes or I do too much walking in flip-flops, that tendon starts giving way and is very painful. These shoes that go over the ankle should help keep the tendon from giving way and/or causing me discomfort. Nice pair of shoes that I will get a great deal of use out of!

Fits like a glove, feels like I'm wearing slippers.
The price was just too good to pass up.

The fit of these slip on sneakers is true to size. I got a pair in size 11, and my size 11 foot fits just fine. The fit is better with socks on but even without socks the sneaker has a decent fit (there's some lifting of the heel when not wearing socks but it's not excessive or troublesome).
They are surprisingly comfortable. There's padding that provides reasonable support. They are all plastic in construction which makes them perfect as a garden shoe since I can just hose them off when they get muddy. They are also great for around the house and running errands. I like that they are slip ons, which makes it quick and easy to put on/take off. However, these would not be my first choice for taking long walks -- I prefer lace up shoes for that to provide better support.
The only area that was somewhat disappointing is the sole. The manufacturer claims they are non-slip and that's true when walking on a rough surface, such as a sidewalk. Even in the rain these felt sure footed outside. However, on smooth surfaces, such as a wet tile floor, I didn't get that sure footed feeling. I didn't fall (at least not yet) but I have to be more mindful when walking compared with other shoes that have a softer, more grippy sole. The sole on these shoes is rather hard and unyielding. That's good for making the shoe last a long time without wearing out, but not so good for grip.
The sole drops my score to 4.5 stars but I'll round up to 5 since everything else about these sneakers hits the mark. They fit well and are comfortable, practical shoes. The styling is nothing to shout about, but as long as my feet are happy, I don't care what they look like!
