Nike Air Foamposite One Metallic Copper 2024 CBE1446

Reviewer Hand

I bought these specifically for cycling with old fashioned toe clips, because I'm weird and I like to know about history and experience things. They were advertised as 10.5US, they are 44eu instead of 45 eu - meaning they "run small", and it's a small 44. I still fit in them, even if they are a tad tight and have been using them with an old peugeot PH11 with the original triangular pedals from the mid 1980's - that style inspired the Look system of "clipless" pedals famously introduced by Greg Lamond in the famous tour pursuit of the badger. Mostly, I just want to pursue coffee and sunshine.

I think these might be the best shoes you can currently buy for use with cycling toe-clips, without spending a fortune or getting shoes that are 20 years old and falling apart. If you're more accustomed to swing out clipless systems such as Look, CrankBros, or Spd, you will recognize immediately that toe clips are far inferior - it took me a few miles to stop yanking my foot out of the back as I tried to sweep through the bottom of my pedal stroke, and it's hard to remember to loosen the strap when coming to a stop. These Puma shoes are very similar to the old sidi shoes that used to be common in cycling, except there's really no stiffness at the end of the toes, and I could tell that I would get a blister on my big toe as a result, so I must meditate on rule 5 of the Velominati prior to using them. I wouldn't be surprised to learn that Puma took this shoe design from an old cycling shoe, the laces are shifted to the outside of the shoe and are easy to keep away from the cranks, while the foot bottom is as stiff as any modern cycling shoe. I think it would be hell to walk around in and I really can't comment on their utility as driving shoes.

The ferrari symbol is a regrettable attribute, as my place in society (AKA not a billionaire) would dictate that anyone wearing such driving shoes while tooling around in their ferrari not only has more money than sense, but likely has additional baggage that (fingers crossed) allows me to feel morally superior; which would make up for being hugely outclassed, financially. It's a kind of 99%'ers sour grapes, you know? If you are this person, please feel free to leave me validating comments about the woes in your otherwise blessed life. Mo-money mo problems?

Comfortable and durable. I recommend these shoes.

Reviewer K Cordon

They should never stop production of this shoe. It is the best for flatground freestyle. I wish the velcro straps were wider.

Reviewer A Boston

Most comfortable casual shoes I have every worn!

Reviewer Memphis Diva

Fits well, should have bought ankle socks to go with it. But great shoes

Reviewer Chip Mitchell

I hadn't worn a pair of Chuck Taylor's for over 40 years and bought them for old times sake. Wow! They handle an orthotic very well and are surprisingly comfortable. They've become my shoe of choice and I wear them most of the time now. It's also great to be able to throw them in the wash with the clothes.

The People Footwear Ace Sneakers fit true to size. The sizing is unisex. I have a women’s size 10, men’s size 8. They fit a woman’s size 10 foot, and are easy to slide on and off. They really are a combination of a sneaker and a slide.

They can be worn with or without socks. The holes on the top and sides that make up the design are open. So if you wear these in wet conditions, your feet will get wet.

I think they are cute, especially if you like this style of shoes. They’re like Crocs but look a bit nicer. The grey main color and red accents look good on men or women.

The shoes have some arch support and good soles. I wouldn’t wear them for a hike, but they would be good for running errands in the summer, walking around the park or mall or beach, that sort of thing. The shoes are really easy to clean, I throw this type of shoes in the washer when they get dirty.

Great walking at dusk along the road
