Gola® Coaster Smash Low sneakers

Fit true to size. Comfortable. Grrat look for workout and casual dresses

I really loved these sneakers… until I washed them. Well constructed, piping looks sharp, comfy for a basic flat sneaker. But I threw them in the washer (I do this with all my tennies), and they came out very yellowed and discolored. I only took off one star for this because, in all fairness, I checked Gola’s website (after the fact) to see what I did wrong and they do recommend just wiping them clean (no machine). Just wish they had come with instructions stating that. Also, size down 1/2 size. I got mine online and they are a little big but I kept them anyway to avoid return hassles.

The shoe itself was not half bad. I walked over 20K+ for two full days during my stay in San Francisco, and these shoes held me together. Will say, the sole is NOT supported and it is the most BASIC canvas sneaker. The thing that I did not like about it was the dye transferring onto my socks. I wore white socks and the dye got onto my socks, the white canvas on the shoe, and the shoelaces. I don’t know too much about Gola’s reputation on quality control, but you get what you pay. Also for reference on sizing, I am a true 7.5 or EU38, but I ended buying the 7 and it was perfect!
