First off, I wear a size 14 in most shoes, including Five Ten Freerider mountain biking shoes. These are only made up to a 13. I heard that they come a little large though and decided to try them out. I'm not sure if this is true across all sizes, but the 13 is more like a 13.75. They ended up fitting me very well. So, be careful on the size.
The main reason I bought these though is that I LOVE the Stealth rubber soles on my MTB shoes and wanted to try out a pair of hiking/approach shoes from Five Ten. Even though the tread pattern doesn't look terribly aggressive, these are the best gripping trail shoes I've owned. They are comfortable all around with a reasonably wide toe box and good cushioning at the top of the tongue and under the ankle. The soles are stiff and took a little while to break in. I still wouldn't say they've "softened" all that much though. The bottom of the shoe is pretty stiff and the inner sole is not very cushy. They are comfortable for wearing all day though. I recently traveled with them for 10 days as my only pair of shoes both walking around town and hiking. So, they're fine. If you like a soft sole or lots of padding though, these are definitely not for you.
The only complaint I have is that these shoes do not breathe well at all. They're mostly a soft leather with a little bit of mesh. The mesh is thick though. My feet get hot in lots of shoes, but these are very hot. The flip side is that they do a decent job of keeping moisture out. During rainy hikes, my feet have stayed pretty dry. For me, the durability is nice. I've beaten up a lot of shoes hiking and I can tell these are going to hold up well. They're very well made and solid.
Overall, I really like these shoes. You just have to be good with the tradeoffs. They choose durability, grip and stiffness over being lightweight and breathable. And I feel like I should repeat that they are not cushy. They have stiff soles, but flex enough to walk around in all day no matter what the terrain. Give them a try if that's what you're after.

ordered a half size down as with most superstars and it fits fine. you can't remove the character from the shell toe, its fused on there. my only complaint is that the rubber feels strange, like its falling apart. after taking the shoes out of the box, my shirt was covered with white eraser shaving like pieces. after rubbing the midsole, my fingers got sticky and more of that stuff came off. i ended up scrubbing with reshoevn8er and the eraser shaving problem is gone, but it still has a little tack when touching it. the rest of the shoe is fine.

the look and fit are great.
Reviewer PJHalsall
Fit great for me. Very comfortable and light weight. Holding up very well. Would have bought a second pair if the price didn’t jump $30.00.

Surprisingly well fitting sneakers. I take a womens 10/11 or a mens 9. I always need wide width (genetic bunions, yay), so I wasn't sure how these would fit. When they arrived, I thought no way would they fit. They looked super narrow and small. Optical illusion as they went on no problem, and fit my feet well. Somehow makes my feet look narrow, too.
They have a sock like opening & upper. Stretchy but secure feeling. I wouldn't call it a lace up sneaker as there is no tongue. There is really no need for the laces, but it does provide some ability to adjust how it fits along the top portion. Just know that you can't make it tighter at the top near opening.
They do look exactly like in the pictures.
They feel secure on the feet. The insert is cushiony, almost provides a bit of a bounce. Has a slight arch, so if you have high arches or walk more on your sides, then this may exacerbate that. I have high arches but it doesn't feel too off. I was able to wear them all day around the house doing chores and felt comfortable enough. At some point I thought it could use more cushion.
They are a light weight sneaker, yet the sole is sturdy. I haven't gone on a walk with these yet, so I am not sure how they do in that regard (but will update). They were comfortable and sturdy enough for around the house and basic errands.
A lot better than anticipated.

Looks of the sneaker is fantastic. The comfort after the fist day of breaking in is very nice. Love the leather. When ordering pick a half size smaller from what your normally wear,this was recommended by a previous review and it was dead on. I would recommend this shoe.

I haven't owned shoes in years. Even in the coldest (okay chilliest) winter days here in FL I wore sandals. I needed a pair of shoes for an event and after seeing numerous TV commercials for Skechers wide fit shoes I took a shot and ordered these in a 12 4E. They're amazingly comfortable with a ton of room for my toes. They don't pinch or bind. I have a flat foot and was glad to find there isn't a high arch in these shoes and the memory foam insole (not removable sadly) really cushions your stride. The soles have nice traction and the uppers are sturdy but breathe nicely, on an 83° day when the rest of me was sweating my feet were surprisingly cool and comfortable. These really aren't a sneaker they're more like a lightweight walking/trail shoe. They're also attractive. Hopefully they're as durable as they are comfortable.

These are VERY big, they fit very loose almost like a 7 or 8X
The waist has very little stretch
The drawstring is;
~ on the outside of the shorts, visually unpleasant
~ very slippery making knots not want to hold
~ not long enough, had to tie large knots to keep the cord from pulling into the shorts
The tags, normally on almost all clothing in the back, are on the front right side, confusing when dressing
The pros included very nice quality fabric, great length, nice deep pockets, they feel good against the skin.
