Awesome
October 25, 2017My favorite sneakers, and by far the best to appear on J. Crew, save maybe the SL 72s from a while ago.

Lightweight summer shoe
August 31, 2016These shoes are perfect to wear all summer long. They are very lightweight, so it's as if you're barely wearing them. But they also don't have a lot of side padding, which seems to help them breathe on your feet. My usual shoe size is a 9.5US and that's what I ordered here. Couldn't have asked for a better fit. Hopefully they keep continuing to make these shoes, because once these wear out, I will definitely buy another pair! Nice collaboration!

Retro Style - so LIGHT!
June 18, 2016Matches easily - super light - I wear a 9 mens in most styles but with Nike and Puma I almost always go with a 9.5. Thats what I did here. Loves these babies.

Great shoe!
May 31, 2016Not only is this shoe very stylish and I get compliments on it every time I wear it, it is EXTREMELY comfortable! Worth the purchase, I just wish it came in more colors.

Beautiful shoe; runs small and narrow
May 28, 2016These shoes look absolutely beautiful but do run on the small and narrow side. I own another pair of Nikes in 8.5, which fit snugly and (a little more) comfortably. These are markedly tighter and shorter in the same size, so you may want to consider sizing up. They fit well after a day or two of breaking in. I'm curious to see how the fabric, inner lining, stitching and thin sole hold up after more wear. Given (what I consider) the relatively steep price for a pair of sneakers, I hope they last -- especially since they are so great-looking.
