Ok but runs large for me. I wear 8.5 and these were at least 1/2 size too large. Returned

This is a nicely made driving shoe for occasional use. After all it is only an $80 shoe, just what you would expect from a shoe priced in this category fit was about 1/2 size more than a normal street shoe; and about a 1/2 size less than my normal New Balance size (NB runs one size more than normal street shoes)
The trim outline of the shoe aids in driving small sports cars with narrow clutch/brake areas.

I really liked this shoe. It was comfortable and looked nice, but basically broke down within a year. I wore them out to a casual rehearsal dinner BBQ, and they got muddy, it was the final kick in the butt I needed to throw away broken shoes, despite only being 1 year old

They machine wash very well, as they are canvas rather than ultra suede. I like the extra wideness as I like to stretch out my toes. I find the green a bit too bright. I prefer the blue ones.

I continually buy the Superstars. They have been one of my favorite shoes since I was teenager. I have to wear an ankle brace with metal slats frequently and it is hard to find shoes that will fit it. I usually buy all of my shoes 1/2 to 1 size too big. My feet are different sizes as well, due to multiple surgeries on one ankle. I have never had an issue with the Superstar. They are very comfortable, they last, and they fit my brace. Would 100% recommend.

Great shoe and wears well
Reviewer Priscilla S Choate
Nice shoes. I bought them to play tennis with them and so far so good.
Reviewer Robert P Heckenkamp
The shoe did bend and twist but was lightweight which I really liked. I tried the shoes when my feet were painful and swollen. I liked it!
Reviewer S Fay
Great deal! These shoes are $49 local. Very light, great for working out inside or out. Paid $18 for them on Amazon with free shipping.

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.
