Great shoes5
Got these for my husband - he previously had a pair, after they got worn he looked for another. We found them thru this merchant. Very comfortable - great shoe, great value.


Great price, not so great feel3
Looked nice for the price. The left shoe had something stiff giving a painful rub bottom of the lace. So I had to return item back to Amazon.

Great shoes, esp. for narrow-heeled people5
These shoes are an absolute steal. I came across them at Macy's during '08 Christmas shopping, but couldn't justify the (much higher than Amazon) price. Enter: Amazon!
They cup your heel really well, so if you have narrow heels like I do, you'd be hard pressed to find mainstream shoes that fit better. They're very good quality, too - I have purchased two more pairs after being so impressed with the first (they have lots of different color schemes if you just do an Amazon search for "Original Penguin").
They run a little big, so get get a pair that is on the smaller end of your spectrum (I fit sneakers ranging from 9.5 all the way up to 11s with some manufacturers; the 9.5s fit perfect for me).
They also have a removable insole, in case you need to know - I have knee problems, so I wear orthotics to help re-distribute my weight; this makes it imperative that I be able to take the original insoles out.
Again, if any of the above piques your interest, get these shoes.

Fly5
These are hot. I like wearing something that everyone on the street won't have. I will buy more. The fit is a little on the narrow side, but I think they will break in fine.

Customer Reviews

Great for bigger runners5
These shoes are the best I've ever owned. I just bought my second pair after logging 350 miles on the first. I am a bigger guy so need more support than other shoes offer. I am 6'4" and 260 lbs (308 lbs when I started running). I've experience none of the knee problems with these shoes that I have in the past. I also like that they have a wider toe than other shoes. In the past, I have had problems with my toes being pinched together and it leading to ingrown toenails, black toenails and blisters. Those are not an issue with these shoes. I would offer that they are not the most stylish shoes given what seems to be popular today. If anything, they are plain. I stopped buying shoes for their looks and buy solely for function now. These shoes work so well, I would be wearing them if they were glittering purple. With so many other excuses that make it difficult to get out the door to run, uncomfortable shoes is the last thing anyone needs.


Excellent Price and good product5
Great Price. When I bought this shoe, the Road Runner Sports store close to our home was selling the same for 50% more - yes - 50%. At this time the item is on sale at the store.

Product is specially suitable for people with flat feet / "Motion Control Plus" type requirement.

GREAT DEAL5
I think I bought this on a Friday sale and it was an excellent deal. I bought one for my son and one for my husband in a different size. They were happy with the shoes. Fit well and comfortable. My purchase was months ago, it just takes me awhile before I get around to write a review.

new shoes5
the columbia sportswear black slip on shoes were excellent. the leather and design were very attractive and price was hard to believe.

Comfort + Quality + Price = Incredible Value!!!5
I am always a bit hesitant to buy shoes without trying them on, especially if I haven't bought the same style from the same manufacturer previously. That said, the price Amazon offered on these ($32) was so good that I was happy to roll the dice. THEY ARE A GREAT BUY!!! Comfortable, high quality, decent looking, and inexpensive... what more could you ask for? I have worn these with khakis to work and with jeans on the weekend, and they have been terrific in both situations. Highly recommended shoes!

Adidas Superstart 24
These sneakers will blow your mind. They are sleek and it will fit your modern style of life. The shoe is very solid. The leather is durable, the colors are vivid and do not fade easily. The rubber soles create a strong protection between the floor and your feet and it does not let water penetrate inside. The shoe insoles are not that good so I got me a good pair from Dr scholl's. It makes a difference. You will not be disappointed

One of the best shoes ever made.5
As far as timeless quality shoes go, you have Adidas Superstars and Converse Chuck Taylor's. Neither will go out of style anytime soon. I prefer the Adidas because it's more comfortable and more durable. If you don't already own a pair of these then you should click and buy.

A note about Hush Puppies sizing4
I ordered these in EEE width but when they arrived they were labeled EW (extra wide).

I called the Hush Puppies customer service line and they explained that EW size is EQUIVALENT to a EEE. Judging by the way these fit, I'd say they're more like EE.

To avoid confusion, Amazon should remove the EEE size option from this item. Whether you choose EEE or EW, they're going to send you EW.

Otherwise, the shoes appear well made and are a bargain at the sale price.

A Pleasure to wear5
Since I graduated college (oh so long ago), I thought that uncomfortable shoes were as much a part of business life as neckties. Imagine my delight when I slipped on a pair of shoes with the comfort of a pair of sneakers, yet with a business look. Now you know why I have become a life-long fan of Hush Puppy shoes.

I currently live in Japan, and need to remove my shoes when I enter any houses, so not having laces is a definite must for me. The elastic on this model is strong enough to keep its shape and hold the shoe firmly on my foot without being too tight. I love the thick-padded edges that are soft against my ankle instead of chafing. The bottoms have sneaker-like traction and comfort, making them easy to walk in without slipping on wet/flat surfaces. The one-piece construction of the toe area makes it easy to clean and hold a shine without much fuss, and these shoes are very light, making it easy for me to continue walking or standing during my work-day.

I bought the brown version instead of the black because from the internet picture, the black version had white stitches on the black leather and that didn't look as good as the brown shoe with brown stitching.

Customer Reviews

Nice Mother Earth Friendly Shoes4
I've owned several simple shoes before, and I really like the slim, classic look that simple portrays on most of their shoes. I really like the bike tread sidewall and it definitely gives the shoes that unique factor. I got the black pair in size twelve and they fit just like a size 12 should so I recommend buying the size you normally wear.

Pros:
- Well made, (on average my simple shoes have lasted about 3 years of constant use and what usually goes out first for me is that the bottom sole of the shoes wears through).
-Unique look
-Eco-friendly construction

Cons:
-Pad insert isn't as cushy as previous pads I've had from simple (this one's made from recycled PET)
-Shoes don't offer the best in breathability for your feet (satisfactory for most days, but on those cooker days your feet will get hot)

Well hope this helps you make your decision. I like these shoes a lot and they are my main daily shoes. The shoes are plenty comfortable, the cushioning pad insert is just a little too firm for my complete liking.

Eco friendly sneakers ROCK5
Being 6'5" and having a size 15 shoe I found that these simple sneakers ran in a 16. They are made of Hemp which not only being more economically sound to our environment I know it will outlast any canvas made sneaker. I wasn't sure if they would be comfortable. However the first day me and my girlfriend wore them (having ordered two pairs, one for each of us) we had taken a trip from Long Island where we reside to Battery park to hop o a ferry and visit the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island. We walked around for 8 or more hours that day. We were sore by night but one thing that didt hurt was our feet. The sneakers are incredibly comfortable even right out of the box, no ned to be broken in.
