"You Can't Go Wrong With Stan!"

Have ben buying the very same shoe for decades (FYI, it was the very first leather tennis shoe ever retailed). It is by far the most comfortable, durable and handsome tennis shoe ever to grace my feet. The chicks really dig me when I wear them, see, so I have carefully ration their use as I can only handle 25 chicks max at any given time.

They're also great for defending yourself anything of a size from a kitty cat to a Grizzly bear, though I would not recommend kicking a Grizzly. For some reason, dogs always think my ST's are of the opposite sex and in heat? I don't get that, but at least it keeps my shoes clean.

I've been told the ST can even stop bullets but I'll have to get back on that with you later. Amazon sent me exactly the STs I ordered and were very fast about it. Amazon and Adidas are my bestest buddies now.

P.S. It's fun to see where my Stan Smiths are manufactured each time I'm forced to reorder. Think my first were made in France (ugh, gnarly), then the U.S., then Japan, then Indonesia, then Malaysia, then Singapore, then South Korea, then Mexico, then Mexico again, then Vietnam, then China, now Southern Mexi-Fornia. Labor in So Cal is now cheaper than China! Is that a hoot or what?! We're bringing back industry to the USA. 5 stars

"Not the same shoes you remember"

I suppose that it's inevitable, but I was hoping that the shoes would be the same as I remembered as a kid. They are not. To say the quality is inferior is being kind. The sizes run small as well (about a half size) and A*com will charge you shipping to return it. 1 star

"Overcharged on order"

My original order was 1 pair of tennis shoes missing so when I had to re-order the 2nd pair of identical tennis shoes, I was overcharged & also had to pay shipping fees again. I tried several times to resolve this problem via Amazon & the shipping co. Bealls Florida, but was basically ignored & never received my refund. I find this to be deceitful & poor customer service. 1 star
