Perfect for high arch and Fred flintstone feet. Super pleased with these two pairs. Would buy a black pair but I never find a 12EEEE

I only ordered these because I found a great deal on them. Normally I would have passed, but I love Simple brand shoes and figured it was worth the risk. I'm really glad that I did, because I like them much better then I expected. They look better in person then in the pictures and they're very comfortable.
I'd say that they fit true-to-size, although if you're in between sizes, I'd suggest that you go with the larger one. The width is pretty average too. I do wish these had more arch support, but they're not bad as is.
Overall, I'm as pleased as I always have been in the past with this brand.

They were a good price and seem to be very comfortable, but they are hard to put on.

These Brothers United luxury lace up leather men's sneakers are really nice! They're made with leather and have a padded foot bed, elevated rubber sole, and blunt arch support for comfort. They're designed in New York and handcrafted by shoe artisans in Brazil. Brazil is known worldwide for their quality shoes. Ordered these for my son and he loves them. Very nice sneakers and fashion-forward.

I ordered these Alpine Swiss Stuart men's chunky sneakers. They fit him real well but he says there's not a lot of flexibility to them. Feel stiff. Maybe after awhile they'll have some give. I did a review on these months ago but didn't realize my pics in my tablet were malfunctioning and took my data too. So...I apologize for this delay. But hubby likes them and that's all that matters!

The fit of these slip on sneakers is true to size. I got a pair in size 11, and my size 11 foot fits just fine. The fit is better with socks on but even without socks the sneaker has a decent fit (there's some lifting of the heel when not wearing socks but it's not excessive or troublesome).
They are surprisingly comfortable. There's padding that provides reasonable support. They are all plastic in construction which makes them perfect as a garden shoe since I can just hose them off when they get muddy. They are also great for around the house and running errands. I like that they are slip ons, which makes it quick and easy to put on/take off. However, these would not be my first choice for taking long walks -- I prefer lace up shoes for that to provide better support.
The only area that was somewhat disappointing is the sole. The manufacturer claims they are non-slip and that's true when walking on a rough surface, such as a sidewalk. Even in the rain these felt sure footed outside. However, on smooth surfaces, such as a wet tile floor, I didn't get that sure footed feeling. I didn't fall (at least not yet) but I have to be more mindful when walking compared with other shoes that have a softer, more grippy sole. The sole on these shoes is rather hard and unyielding. That's good for making the shoe last a long time without wearing out, but not so good for grip.
The sole drops my score to 4.5 stars but I'll round up to 5 since everything else about these sneakers hits the mark. They fit well and are comfortable, practical shoes. The styling is nothing to shout about, but as long as my feet are happy, I don't care what they look like!

The Columbia Fairbanks are comfortable, supportive, and have a good sole. The grippy sole is the most important part of a shoe for me, since I have an older individual wearing these sneakers, and avoiding slipping/falling is super important. The shoes are worn for daily walking about and work well for that.
The arch support feels great; there’s no foot fatigue at the end of a day wearing these. The mesh is breathable, but doesn’t block out any water, including puddles.
The sizing is true to size.
The look of the wide lacing is a personal preference (not a big fan) but definitely makes putting the shoes on and taking them off much easier than a narrow-tongued sneaker. Overall, the look of the shoe isn’t too athletic, so it could be worn in a variety of settings if you’re looking for comfort/support.

I still have these shoes and wear them on the regular. I can't wear them when it's wet outside because water gets in, and I had to glue the bottoms onto the shoes as it was starting to come off at the heels. They are dirty, but still very wearable. I think it's time for a fresh pair though, I find myself wearing other shoes more and more as these get older and older. Well worth the purchase though!

Almost a year later and I still wear them. Usually the loops will break, but no issues yet. I did replace the laces, I wanted a different color (neon green). Fit as expected. I may buy another pair if I can get them at a good price.
