First off, I wear a size 14 in most shoes, including Five Ten Freerider mountain biking shoes. These are only made up to a 13. I heard that they come a little large though and decided to try them out. I'm not sure if this is true across all sizes, but the 13 is more like a 13.75. They ended up fitting me very well. So, be careful on the size.
The main reason I bought these though is that I LOVE the Stealth rubber soles on my MTB shoes and wanted to try out a pair of hiking/approach shoes from Five Ten. Even though the tread pattern doesn't look terribly aggressive, these are the best gripping trail shoes I've owned. They are comfortable all around with a reasonably wide toe box and good cushioning at the top of the tongue and under the ankle. The soles are stiff and took a little while to break in. I still wouldn't say they've "softened" all that much though. The bottom of the shoe is pretty stiff and the inner sole is not very cushy. They are comfortable for wearing all day though. I recently traveled with them for 10 days as my only pair of shoes both walking around town and hiking. So, they're fine. If you like a soft sole or lots of padding though, these are definitely not for you.
The only complaint I have is that these shoes do not breathe well at all. They're mostly a soft leather with a little bit of mesh. The mesh is thick though. My feet get hot in lots of shoes, but these are very hot. The flip side is that they do a decent job of keeping moisture out. During rainy hikes, my feet have stayed pretty dry. For me, the durability is nice. I've beaten up a lot of shoes hiking and I can tell these are going to hold up well. They're very well made and solid.
Overall, I really like these shoes. You just have to be good with the tradeoffs. They choose durability, grip and stiffness over being lightweight and breathable. And I feel like I should repeat that they are not cushy. They have stiff soles, but flex enough to walk around in all day no matter what the terrain. Give them a try if that's what you're after.

Paid $29 I think it was a great value. sizing seems to be 1/2 size off. I wear 11.5 but these fit better at size 11. Over all I highly recommend these sneakers.

they run small and the tongue is somewhat flimsy making it hard to position right before lacing. I noticed that there is extra material on my right shoe where the tongue is sewn on. this is noticeable and quite annoying when I run. for lighting weights though, its not too bad.

I got these for someone as a gift. They are comfortable if you like the "no shoe" type of feel. No arch support and not much cushioning, but that's the whole point,. Very unique, and easily fit/molded to your feet.

Being this is my second pair of Puma's and like most of the reviews on here....If your going to purchase Puma's always buy 1/2 size larger. You will save your self a lot of time by doing this. Look at other reviews and you will see many on here have said the same thing....Select 1/2 size larger.....
This is a great driving shoe and looks great....guess that's why they call them "Fashion Sneakers...
Reviewer PJHalsall
Fit great for me. Very comfortable and light weight. Holding up very well. Would have bought a second pair if the price didn’t jump $30.00.
Reviewer John Borg
Husband likes them and said he’d buy again

I've had back problems for years, and now am in the middle of two hip replacements. Meaning tying shoes is not an option. Of all the slip ons I have, I love these the most. 2 pair at 40 bucks a pair??? I love them beyond words. Super light. Not for cold weather, mind you, and slippery on icy stuff, for for spring summer and fall they are the bomb.
Reviewer Morgan P Mancuso
These are very light and cool. Great for summer wear.
They do not clean well and do hold the dirt, but for casual wear out and about they are really nice.
I'll buy another pair when these wear out.

Hey, Everyone I have been searching for forever to find the perfect pair of work shoes and i know that i have hit the jackpot. I have tried multiple brands and its either that the toe is too narrow or the shoe is uncomfortable. With sketchers you get the room, comfort, and a quality shoe i am on my feet for 10 hours a day and work in the elements my shoe has held up great in rain and heat and great thing about this shoe is that they dont sweat your feet. Quality of the shoe is there I haven't had any tears in my shoe "yet" but i have no complaints just get a nice pair of work socks so your feet can be extra comfy have a great one any issues i will upate my review
