Puma 5000 is great!!! I loved this shoe so much, that I bought it in another color as well. I am on my feet all day at work, and these are one the most comfortable pairs of shoes that I’ve experienced.
One cool ride… Just scored a pair of the coriander and four leaf clover (sage and green) color combo; nice low-key color combo with just the right accents (yellow midsole and orange side spikes) to make them interesting without screaming “look at me”. I’m into minimum clothing and these Pumas are a very minimalist shoe looking equally well when I wear ‘em with my 501’s as they do with a pair of full-split running shorts…worn barefoot of course These are lightweight track shoes designed to fit your foot like a second skin, they are best worn barefoot or with lightweight socks or peds. The uppers are super flexy and combined with the snug fit and lightness these Pumas have a very sensual feeling when you lace ‘em on your feet….responding easily to your foot and toe movements…almost like being barefoot…they look and feel incredible. Outrageously awesome are the aggressively gnarly soles; underfoot you tread the earth atop a flexy mass of soft rubber cones or “spikes”. These shoes stick like velcro to most surfaces; the exception being wet soles on smooth surfaces. The soles give the shoes a surprisingly nice, spongy, cushy ride and I notice they make a neat, soft “ripping” sound when walking on concrete. I like the contrasting section of orange spikes on my shoes; really makes the soles noticeable, especially when I prop up my feet and show off all those spikes. You know you want a pair… go ahead, get ‘em. Unless you’ve got foot problems, need ample arch support and cushioning in your shoes or have wide feet, these Pumas are one cool ride.
These kicks are my best kicks yet! I never purchased a pair of Puma sneakers before. I think these are one of Puma’s best retro sneakers yet besides the Speed Cat. I have them in vapor blue and neutral gray. When I where them outside, everyone looks directly at my Puma’s and ask me what are they and where I got them from. I don’t mind the attention. I like getting sneakers that are different looking. Plus, these sneakers go well with a pair of jeans. I really like the colors. Most of my cloths are in grey and blue. I also like the grids on the bottom of the sneakers. They sort of resemble soccer sneakers with cleats on the bottom. I was skeptical at first that they would be uncomfortable with the grids on bottom and they would come off. I just will be careful not to mess the bottom of the sneakers up. These sneakers are very comfortable and lightweight also. They are also good for school, work and practically walking in them all day. But they are not good for running. I have been trying for years to find a pair of retro sneakers that have actually dark gray and light gray with blue on them and I finally did. Thanks Puma for making sneakers in right cool colors for people to enjoy. Also, thanks zappos.com for having these sneakers too.
Great sneaks- These shoes are really comfortable. Not only that, they’re really cool looking. I’ve got the Coriander and Four Leaf clover color (yellow, red and dark green) and I’m always getting compliments on them. Not recommended for walking in for exercise but to wear to school; work if you can get away with it- of it is definitely the right kind of wearing. I normally wear a 6.5 in shoes but these came in 5.5’s (though I ordered my normal 6.5 size) and they fit PERFECTLY. So these might run a little bit big.
A little bounce in your step- This shoe is great- very sporty and bouncy yet hip in that retro way. I was a little worried initially that the nubs on the sides and bottom were too prominent/soccer cleat-like but they provide a nice cushion to your step and aren’t as noticeable as I thought. The shoe is colorful yet not tacky. A great shoe to walk around the streets of New York City in or any city for that matter.
Speed cat - Just a great looking and fitting shoe. Very comfortable and have received many complements on the appearance…………… women often ask if they are made for them as well.
A great pair of shoes! I have really enjoyed these shoes. Right out of the box they felt like I have owned them for years. They were very comfortable and fit very well. I receive them in two days and was very happy (as always) with the service that Zappos provides.
PUMA 5000m Clover/Coriander - Fabulous shoes! So comfortable, lightweight and stylish. Puma kicks it again. Just to say, this style is flat and on the narrow side. They are definitely fashion shoes, not sport shoes b/c they’re not supportive enough for intense running (despite the treads and the name). And since they’re mesh and suede, probably not the best shoes in the rain. If you have other pumas(I have anjans and speedcats) then get the same size, they are very consistent. Love the colors of clover/coriander–the green orange white and yellow combo makes me really happy and gets lots of compliments.
Excellent - These are some of the best pumas I own. The fit is just right, the little nubs create a comfy ride, and they look awesome. I get to many compliments or inquiries about them (on campus and the street). Even caught the notice of some employees at the puma store near me. These are a must have for you sneaker heads in the know. And best of all…you stand out because you don’t see them everywhere.
I love them! First off- I think that zappos is the greatest! Excellent service from the moment I started shopping with them three years ago. I love this shoe and would highly recommend it. I get compliments everyday because of their unique style and great color. I have the red ones. They are very comfy and light, I forget that I even have them on. I was a little worried when ordering; questioning whether or not the color would bleed onto my socks but I quickly found that the color only bleeds a tiny bit on the outside. These shoes are very fun- I’m happy with my choice!
These pumas are my first pair, and definitely not my last! They are very comfortable and light, they are narrow and you should get a half size larger than you normally wear. I love the style and color, I got many looks the first day I wore them! I ordered them on a Friday, and they came in on Monday!! Zappos is my new shoe store! Thanks!
I LOVE these Pumas!! I have two pairs, black/white and brown/yellow. The colors are awesome and I get compliments on these shoes every time I wear them. They are so comfortable I wore them right out of the box and walked like 30 blocks–not even a blister. HIGHLY recommended!
When I put these shoes on for the first time, I felt like I was walking on air! The width of the shoe was perfect for my feet. I also got many positive comments on the look of the shoe itself.
Very impressed - I am very impressed with these shoes. They are nice and light and I’ve already received quite a few compliments while wearing them. The grip on them is amazing and a previous review gave caution to walking on carpet, I second that warning. Walking on gravel is easy as the grip on the bottom digs through the rocks and gives great traction. I can’t wait to try these on ice.
Most Radical Sneaker!!! I love these these shoes! Everyone trips out on the rubber nubbies. I got the green/orange combo and they look great with everything. I only wish there was some arch support, cuz then these would be the all around ultimate. They’re really comfy and fun to wear. I highly recomend buying a pair or two!
A definite must have for sneaker pimps. The first day I wore these I received numerous compliments questions on where i got them. This is awesome shoe for the summer and comes in a great variety of color combos. These shoes are extremely light weight and well made. The fit felt a little narrow to me but the overall design makes it all worth while.
The puma 5000m style is very comfortable and cushy. I love this style and actually try to collect all of the styles, but I can’t find the older styles! Pls email me if you have 5000m and am willing to part! gotpuma1@hotmail.com
These are fantastic shoes and it’s hard to believe that Puma does not make them anymore. If anyone has access to any color combination or are willng to part with it- please let me know at robsamir@gmail.com. Willing to pay top dollar for Men’s Size 9.5 U.S. Thanks!
These are the best shoes- anybody know of a place to still buy them or if they have a new pair that they are willing to part with? I am looking for Men’s size US 9.5 in any color combo and am willing to pay top dollar. I can be reached at robsamir@gmail.com
This are really my favorite sneakers EVER, I pretty much like Adidas and Puma,I thought my Speedcat were comfortable but, these ones are hard to beat!! best retro-looking pair!!!, I have them on grass-green and have been using them for almost three years, still look great. I am kind of sad because I have not been able to find them 11.5 anymore (I don’t mind the color) =(
