What attract me the most about these PUMAs was the look. Besides that, it's light as a feather and is the perfect choice for casual wear. The base of the shoe wasn't made to handle the heavy impact of running or hiking. It's only for a walk on the street, that's all. I would recommend buying this pair a half size larger as it tends to be a bit small from the rated size. Overall, this was my first PUMA shoe and I like them!

The Cabana Racer II is a great "old school" shoe. It's very comfortable and fits true to size. The color selections are great...from basic to not so basic...depending on your style and statement that you want to make. At times, I wear them to work with a shirt, tie and dress pants...the kids at school love them! I have 2 pairs and I'm in the process of purchasing a third...going with the black this time around. Can't get nicer than these so...GET NICE!

Pretty sweet shoe, dig the colors and the feel. I was worried that the shoe would be too narrow from other reviews, but I didn't notice anything at all and I have a pretty good size foot. This was first shoe I ordered online and was worried about sizing, so I went to measure my foot, found to be size 11 US. When I got the shoe, though, I found it to have a bit more space than needed.

These shoes are pretty awesome. They are a great color and ultra light weight. On the down side, the soles are kind of soft and don't have at much traction, even on dry asphalt, as I would like. I almost took a couple of spills the first time I wore them. The sizing as a little tighter than the last 10.5 pumas I bought, but they have stretched out nicely.

Great shoes. Comfortable. Quiet, no squeaking on waxed floors, no clopping on hardwood floors. Eye catching if you get the orange and brown. Not much for arch support which my flat feet prefer. Soles are thick enough that I don't feel every single piece of gravel across a gravel surface. Will probably pick up another pair in another color in the near future.

Great looking shoe. Most fashionable shoes are not too comfy, but these are an exception to the rule. The only suggestion I would make is to possibly order 1/2 size larger then you would normally go with. My size 12s were just a little more snug than most other size 12s. Other than that, these are a pair of great shoes!

I bought a pair of the Cabana Racer II a few weeks ago and I like them. They have an awesome retro look and they are comfortable. Like most of the shoes from the early 80’s, they have a smaller sole so you won’t get a ton of support, but they are great for casual wear. I would definitely recommend them.

Great service and shipping by Zappos as always. The shoes came as expected and are great. They have a real retro look to them. I got the orange and green and they fit perfectly. I was a little worried about the width as my feet are a bit wider and flat, but they turned out just right.

Very cute shoes, perfect for wearing with skinny/slim jeans as they are pretty low. These shoes are not ideal for wearing on long walks, and are better worn in situations where you won\'t be doing much walking. They are very flat with virtually no arch support and you can definitely feel that after a while.

The shoes are beautiful. They give you that old school look that make people look twice. Also, the low profile is great to wear them with no-show socks and shorts for the summer. Girls like that. This is my 3rd order from Zappos and I'm a happy camper.

Good looking but not great feeling. These shoes look great! I've gotten a lot of comments within the first week (I got the green/yellow ones). However the downside is a real lack of support in the shoe. There is no arch, and the shoe has a very narrow base making it less stable than a majority of other shoes I've worn. Get it to wear on nights out to the bar but not for athletics or touring a city.

I got these shoes for my boyfriend to wear as an everyday shoe. He got them in June and they are completely worn out. They didn\'t even last six months. I guess they would be a better choice for someone who wasn\'t going to wear them every day, but for the price I expected them to last longer.

Really great looking shoe and super light! But, so uncomfortable. Feels like I'm walking on wooden planks. No cushioning on sole whatsoever! Bummer! As for Zappos service, A+!
