Reallly really freaking good. I like them a lot. I have super high arch’s and prefer shoes that are zero drop -flat. These are definitely that. Also for the price , you can’t beat the quality, they are holding up really well , and I’ve been wearing them everyday this month. I’ve gotten a lot of compliments as well.Be sure to wear socks as the synthetic leather likes to trap heat , and I don’t trust the insole to not stink, so air on the side of caution ( pun not intended) The fake leather also wrinkles easily , which I don’t really care about , but thought I’d share that. Also the “suede” is really nice and durable.They are just like a samba in silhouette, sole, and width. The sole looks incredibly simillar with minute textural differences , but the insole lacks the samba’s signature arch support bubble - which I Actually prefer. Arch support is a myth! Unless you got flat feet… in which case these shoes ain’t for you.They are narrow; granted I have wider feet ( size 12 ) , but they are still comfy in that regard.But keep that narrowness in mind if you got really wide feet. but for me they are comfy for walking all day- granted I run and walk a lot and am in a normal BMI.Also I love the look ; it’s a dupe of a replica.These dupes are based off the Mason Margelia Replicas , which are inspired by the BW Germany Army Trainer , designed by Adidas and manufactured by Puma in the early 1900’s for the German military- kind of a funny unrelated tangent.If you spend 30 to 60 more bucks you can find a lightly worn pair of the original on Etsy or eBay , keep in mind the sizing is weird. A 12 would be a 46 or a 300ish. These are also a great option.TLDR:Narrow , flat , stylish , and affordable - I love them. If you got flat, wide , or weak feet avoid these shoes; and If not , they will quickly become your favorites.

Nice quality but purchased two and both sizes too large. Size not true to American.

I like the way the shoes look. They are very stylish. They are very uncomfortable though. They don’t have cushioned insoles, very flat and cheap feeling when I put them on. I have fairly narrow feet and the toe box is too tight for my feet. I use arch supports, hoping that would make them more comfortable to wear. They are still uncomfortable.

With 'nary a mention in this shoe seller's description, what you see here is an accurate reproduction of the original G.A.T.S (German Army Trainers) issued under a military contract by the thousands to the West German Army (ie the "Bundeswehr") in the 1980s; reportedly designed by Puma and manufactured by Adidas, without the Adidas branding or traditional Adidas three stripes logo, and not commercially available to the general public. For a few decades, about the only place to get GATs was at European military surplus stores and occasionally here in the U.S on Ebay, and then what you got was a used shoe, as I had never seen a new unworn authentic GAT listed for sale. Now, various manufacturers, including Adidas, have reintroduced the GAT in the authentic white/gray suede/gum at a considerably higher price than these "PEILEG" "knock-offs"; and by "knock-offs", I don't mean that in a negative way, as ALL the GATs now are "knock-offs" including the Adidas ones. As a side-note, I ordered the beige/gray ones, because they really don't look beige but more of an off-white to resemble a "broken-in" pair of the original color white/gray, and I must say, I'm glad I did, they look great!So, getting down to these "PEILEGS", they fit akin to my several pairs of Adidas men's 8.5 "Sambas" (whereas you can see the obvious similarities to the GAT!) ie. the length is just right, and exactly like the "Sambas", are a narrow shoe (meant to be, in my mind, laced tightly together for a trimmed look). So, the "PEILEGS" are true-to-size when compared to Adidas "Sambas", and I know a thing or two about that, as I have been wearing (and only wearing I might add!) Adidas since my 70s college days when every guy on campus was wearing the brown Adidas "Tobagos", which have morphed into today's "Sambas". And here is the real kicker: for the past couple years, even according to the WSJ August 17, 2024 "Off Duty" article, "Sambas" have been "THE IT" shoe, but now, people want the exclusivity of the non-logo look of the GAT, with the same overall vibe of the "Sambas".I've been wearing these "PEILEGS" now for a day, and just as comfortable as any of my "Sambas" when new, and in fact, I'm a little more impressed by the construction of this gum sole as being slightly more pliable when compared to the "Sambas", but again, time will tell how these hold up in comparison. In short, probably the most desired/fashionista's men's casual shoe you could want today at a more than reasonable price!9/26/24 ADDENDUMSince posting my original review, I have noticed several "helpful likes" posted responses, so I thought I would add a couple more comments/pix, as I am pretty enthusiastic about this shoe. As you can see from a recently purchased current model green striped "Samba", the soles of both shoes are not just similar, they are IDENTICAL IN EVERY DETAIL (other than color which will vary on which color "Samba" you get), leading me to believe the soles of the genuine "Adidas" and the "Peilegs" are sourced from the same manufacturer, with the only difference being that I mistakenly ordered these "Adidas" 1/2 size up from my other normal men's 8 1/2 other Sambas, which I found to be totally unnecessary; so my recommendation is go with your normal size, no need to upsize either the "Samba"s or the "Peileg"s, at least as far as the length goes (no issue with either brands for me as far as width goes).

10/10 fit true to size and are pretty comfy tounge is a little stiff though

if you have a wide foot it’s true to size for sure. They look great and I’m happy to have them as a summer shoe.

I know why they’re cheap but…Very uncomfortable, oversized(I’m a size 10, they fit in my brother's 12 size foot), crease is crazy, can’t even walk in my house in them. No arch support at all.Look nice tho lol

Classic look. Good value. Comfortable.
