F1 Driving Shoe - This shoe is the ultimate F1 replica. I truly feel like a member of Scuderia Ferrari. Aside from my fantasy this is overall a pretty cool shoe. However this is suade so be careful. More importantly order a half size larger than your normal size, these Pumas are cut small and narrow. Thank you to Zappos for great customer service and speedy deliveries. I ordered my normal size, a 10.5 and they were too small,Zappos had me an 11 the very next day. AWESOME SERVICE.
Only place - I swear I looked for 5 staight days and scoured the internet and this place was the only site w/ the size and color I wanted. Even puma’s official site didnt have them. [12 in coffee] The shoes are awesome and they get some nice looks from people. The only draw back is that they are suede, which look nice, but get dirty VERY easily.
Puma My 34 Shoes, - First, Zappos is “da bomb” when it comes to customer service. My first order got lost in the mail and they sent another super quick no questions asked. I know of no other online retailer that does this. Bravo! Now for the shoe: I bought the tan/brown and toe box gets soiled real quick, just walking. Superb sock-like comfort, but I wouldn’t run in them. They’re perfect for driving exotics, like my Nissan Skyline GTS-25T! The look and feel belong in the motor sporting world.
Over-the-Top Service - I bought a pair of dark blue Puma Speed Cats in Boston last summer. I like them so well for driving and everyday walking (that is, not fast for-aerobic-exercise walking) that I wanted a second pair and a second color so that I could wear them every day if I want to. Zappos had the color I wanted (had trouble finding black elsewhere) and the price was competitive. Free shipping for five-day delivery made Zappos the winner in price. After I ordered, Zappos sent word that they were giving me second-deliver, free. Two days later, I had my new shoes on, with a side strip of smooth leather (stays clean) instead of suede as on the Boston bought shoes. I’m 67, but don’t look it. On a night out in a pub with my two sons, a young woman in the dart room started a conversation with me because she liked the look of my shoes. My 37-year-old son said, “You’re the only one that got hit on tonight.” Maybe it was because I looked like her dad. Maybe the shoes did it. Over-the-top style and service from Zappos.
Very cute shoes - I have a fairly wide foot but I took the advice of other reviewers who said this shoe ran a little large and a medium width fit fine. My only complaint is that the strap going across the midstep is a little tight and doesn’t have much “give” (I have a fairly high arch but not abnormally so). This will probably stretch out with a little wear. Otherwise, very cute and well made shoes.
If ordering for woman, be sure to order a full size larger (not half-size as has been promulgated). Very comfortable; wear them often. Design is attractive, not garish and clunky like so many “in” athletic shoes. Toe leather likely to wear thin/get very dirty as it overlaps sole somewhat (running shoe design puts emphasis on heel). Great shoe; will probably order another pair.
Give them a chance ! My advise to anyone buying this shoe is…buy them a half size bigger ( your gonna thank me ) gave a friend some money to buy them for me, told him bring 7 1/2, the stored did not have it so he brought 8. Am so glad he did, because 7 1/2 could not have fit.
Go up a half size - The fit is definitely small, but if you go up a half-size from your usual, they are extremely comfortable and lightweight. I normally take a 12, sometimes even an 11.5 depending on the designer, but I needed a 12.5 in these. Other than running a half-size small, I highly recommend them. Cute too!
