I am a huge Chuck fan - BUT I have flat feet, and can wear them comfortably. My husband and daughter cannot. I feel like most people that wear Chucks do so because they want to make a "fashion statement" at the cost of their feet... I just need them for my flat feet - and thus every 10-12 months I order a pair of Black Chuck Taylors, works for me!

My second pair of the Walker and this time I went with high tops. Beautiful, comfortable and great all around. I do size down 1/2 size, or wear my dress shoes size, and the fit is great. There is some loose grain in the leather, but I don't get caught up in that stuff.

The first time I saw the "Backpack" line of shoes from New Balance, I knew that I'd one day be adding a pair to my collections of 574's. Nylon uppers just seems like a fantastic idea, since nylon is so easy to clean and keep clean. I liked the idea of being able to get them dirty, knowing that they'll clean up better then other 574's. Because of this, I might even wear them when I normally wouldn't want to get my shoes dirty.
I haven't had them long enough to make that decision, or know exactly how well they'll clean up, but there is something else different about them that immediately caught my attention. Ever since New Balance changed the manufacturing process for the 574's, I think they've been smaller and less comfortable then versions before that time. I just purchased another pair of 574's a couple of weeks back and noticed this immediately when putting them on, as I always do with a new pair of 574's nowadays.
This pair, however, feels more like the older 574's, because they're so comfortable. My first thought was that maybe they made them like the old ones, but after comparing them to numerous other pairs I have, both old and new, I don't think that's it. The soles still match the newer version (i.e. they're more narrow), but still, I'm pretty sure they have more toe room in the uppers, because they both look and feel as if they do.
I've been a little disappointed with every pair I've purchased, since they changed the manufacturing process, because they're just not as comfortable as they used to be. For whatever reason, these, however, seem closer to what I remember a new pair feeling like and that has me really happy. They are very comfortable shoes.

I wear them all day at work. They work pretty good for me.

I'm a fan of Saucony shoes and having been wearing them for over a decade. I especially like their classics for their styling. I had an earlier version of this Bullet with a gray sole that I liked, but I love the new red sole even more.
The Bullets run small. For most shoes, I usually wear a size 10. For most Sauconys, it's 10.5. For Bullets, it's 11. They're also slender and not a good choice for wide feet. They're very flexible, but they're durable. The sole seems thin, but they're very comfy. After wearing this style, I'm having a hard time going back to the Jazz Low Pros, or any of the other styles - they seem really bulky.

There were a gift. He absolutely loved them Said they are VERY comfortable. Works in a warehouse with lots of walking. They arrived on time. No problem. They were in a bag not a box, box would have been better.

Arrived as expected. Fit my 13EE feet perfectly!
Expect a year + of use, if worn in normal conditions.
When they fail, the upper separates from the sole, around thefront of the shoe.
I always use Shoe-Goo to repair. I can get an extra 6-8 months of use, after the repair.
