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?

Very comfortable and nice looking shoes. Laces are good and don't come undone without tying a double bow. Soft leather uppers.

Have disappointing durability
Reviewer WillieT
These shoes fit true to size and are nice and lightweight. They are very comfortable and feel well made.

I got these for my hubby, who is a diabetic and has to take great care of his feet. We used to use a different brand but these Skechers are way better than the ones he had! Along with the good cushioned socks he wears these shoes are super for a diabetic, highly recommend them. By the way I bought them via "Amazon .Wardrobe" and loved it!

K-Swiss makes very comfortable and supportive shoes that are long lasting.
Reviewer Daniel Hale
Wish the finish was sueded rather than smooth/shiny leather.
Reviewer John M KELLY
Comfortable, wear them every day.
Reviewer Juancho1
These are very light shoes - they are fairly comfortable, I wish the arch support was better though. They look OK, not nearly as good as the picture, but are stylish enough to wear to work for business casual.
Reviewer Jennifer N Thompson
Husband loves these. Fit as expected. True to sneaker size. This is the second pair I bought for him. Great array of colors.
