Awesome shoe. Itâ??s extremely comfortable and looks pretty nice, too! I have to be honest though. The best thing about the transaction for me though was Zapposâ?? service. I had read a bunch of reviews saying the shoe was X sizes too big, or X size too small and based on the average I ended up ordering my regular shoe size. Sure enough, they arrived, and didnâ??t fit well. GET A SIZE BIGGER THAN YOU ACTUALLY WEAR! In any event, Zappos was so fast with their shipping that I had my replacement shoes within days of my actual original order that I had to replace. Sometimes I think this company has a warehouse on every street corner. Iâ??m always blown away by their service which is why I keep coming back. Thanks Zappos! | |

I have had these shoes for a little while now and I really like them. They are stylish and comfortable. They seem pretty durable and made pretty well. I have been blowing through shoes pretty quickly because I wear casual shoes every day to work. I move around a lot and have been known to destroy shoes in about 2 months. I think these might be durable enough to last longer than the DVS shoes I normally buy. | |

The fit was slightly tight, but I expected as much since my feet are as wide as water skis, however after a couple days they broke in perfectly. I was somewhat bummed when I noticed that the tred that wraps up the heel was loose on the edge (poor glue job), but it\'s not like they cost me a bone either. 8 out of 10. | |

First pair of Globe shoes I've purchased from Zappos, and I love them. Before these I was wearing a similar pair of DVS, but the soles fell apart quickly. This pair looks great and they pretty much go with anything I'm wearing. Very comfortable and sturdy, whether you're using them to skate or just chill. | |

I've now owned and worn this shoe for a long time, and although it is probably about time that I get another pair...I refuse! These shoes have been so comfortable and held up their good looks for many months. When I do buy another pair, hopefully there will be enough stock of these left. | |

Shoes run one full size smaller than most. I usually wear a 12.5 or 13. 13 did not fit and had to swap for 14. Now that I have the right size, these shoes are great. Very comfortable. Good arch support. Good looking shoes. | |

Great, basic shoe. Lots of padding, basic, comfortable fit. I\'ve had mine for about 10 months or so, and I still love them. Wouldn\'t recommend them as a skate shoe though, too much of a wedge, running style sole. | |

These shoes are great! Globe makes a very durable shoe. I'm no skater though. I plan on buying this same shoe again in the same color so I have a back up pair after this shoe get discontinued. | |

Great shoes, well made and thick padding. Be sure to get a half size larger than usual as Globe makes them a little smaller than most and narrow in the toe so you will need more room. | |

I don't believe I will ever buy shoes from a shoe store ever again. When someone asks where I got my new kicks and I tell them Zappos! I'm very happy with the whole transaction. | |

Usually I go for the DVS Volaris but I decided to try another brand just to change things up. I first got these shoes in a size 13 (my normal size) and found that they ran small. This was a width problem, but instead a length problem because my toes smashed into the toe of the shoe. Thankfully, Zappos was awesome and exchanged the shoes next day for the size 14. After waring these shoes now for just over a week I've got a blister on my foot the size of a quarter and my heels are killing me. Moreover, the little Globe insignia on the back of the shoe started coming off 3 days after I got them. I truly dislike these shoes, which is sad because my first pair of Globes about 10 years ago (Chet Thomas Pro Model) were really comfortable and really tough. To anyone considering these shoes, just get a pair of DVSs and you'll be much happier and they're only a little more. | |

I bought the black ones. They look nice but they fit very short. They are about a 3/4 inch off in size. I wear 13 and these are pretty uncomfortable if you tighten the laces. I'll go back to DVS for sure; they fit right. | |

Can't beat the look of this shoe, clean and slick. However, it offers very little support, sole feels flat and shoe is flimsy. For a shoe with better support and same style/look, go with the DVS Volari. | |
