| I have only two real complaints about this shoe. One is the width. It is listed as a medium width shoe. I have a 'true' medium width foot and this shoe is snug and somewhat uncomfortable for the first few weeks. Had it not been for getting them a little damp in the snow I am not sure they would have stretched out. My other complaint is the insole. They are really flat and they aren't really supportive; it is a bit awkward feeling if you ask me. I am getting used to it and the shoe is breaking in and becoming more comfortable. I like the rubber sole. It is very tacky, not gum sole tacky, but close. The look is good. I hate what DC/adio/Lakai/Etnie and all other skate brands are doing with their shoe lines right now with these nasty 80s style colors. I was teenager in the 80s; been there, done that, and regret the photos that exist of me in those days. I guess my getting older makes me hate them even more as I fall more out of the younger fashion. So these Nikes were right up my alley. All in all it is an okay shoe. I wish Adidas still made the Samba Skate; it has been the best skate shoe I have ever owned to date. |

| Nike Skeet Metro-Grey/ Aquamarine/ White - Looked everywhere and finally found them here. First I ordered an 11 which is the size I take in Vans, Etnies etc. I don't think I have a very wide foot, but true to the below reviews they do run snug. They felt narrow on the sides, more like a running shoe feel so decided to compare and ordered a 11.5. I'm keeping the 11.5, ordering a 12 would be way to big. The 11 might have stretched on the sides but didn't want to take the chance. Love these shoes; glad I got them. So if your used to the extra feel of space inside of the Vans brand of skateboard shoe, go with the 1/2 size larger or order both and send one back after. No hassle from Zappos; they're a great company. |

| Got tongue? If you want it, look here. This upper is very comfy thanks to padding in all the right places and the style/color is neutral enough to work with a wide variety of coordinated outfits. If you are not a fan of the "splash" of color these offer in the orange runner you can soften it with a VERY tiny amount of white shoe polish. My only complaint with this shoe is the size/puffiness of the tongue; it's much thicker than the images make it look and is much taller. As a result, if you are wearing a boot cut, straight or wide leg pant/jean you will have to pull the tongue over the cuff of your pants. |

| We've ordered from Zappos in the past with excellent results every time! When my son was looking for a particular color combo sneaker from Nike, we went to the Zappos website after we trekked through several stores with no luck. Should have gone right to Zappos, no shipping and saves gas. His sneakers came in two days! They were perfect. He loves the Nike skate sneakers. I think they are always good quality. He wears them until they don't fit anymore, they usually don't rip or ruin, like my other son's DC's. We really love the Nike brand and the Zappos website. |

| I bought these shoes for my boyfriend. He wears a 10 but likes his shoes a little bigger so I bought him an 11. He says they feel great. Shoes have a big tongue but he doesn't complain that it makes them uncomfortable. Although these look like skate shoes, there is not a lot of padding in the toe like traditional skate shoes. If you just want to wear these around to have on a neat looking pair of shoes, go for it! |

| My 13 year son loves this style of shoe. He has 3 pairs in different colors. He wears them with shorts or jeans. He says they are comfortable and stylish. For him, they seem to be true to size with good toe room. For me , it\'s important that his feet are comfortable while in school. It\'s a good quality shoe which lasts him for several months. |

| Fly shoe - I am a huge fan of this sneaker. I have not seen anyone else wearing them and have been getting lots of compliments. I don't skate, but think that they would not be too durable if I did. They are fairly comfortable, but I think you get what you pay for in this category. They are definitely a shoe for style. |

| To keep this review short and sweet, I bought the shoe in green and I've received nothing but compliments. The shoe is probably one of the most comfortable shoes I've worn in a long time. Like I said, the style is awesome and people will definitely notice it. I'd highly recommend buying these shoes. |

| Pretty good shoe - This is a very nice shoe. It’s comfy and it looks good as well. However, from what I've heard it really isn't a skating shoe, so if you are looking for that, I would go to another brand. So check this out if you are looking for a new shoe. |

| Very comfortable and I like the colors. Like a couple people said, I\'m not a skater, but I like to wear these shoes. They run a bit small, so buy bigger. The width is also a little off. I don\'t have a wide foot, but this shoe is really snug. |
