Very nice slippers, lite and comfortable - Excellent quality, holding up well. Easy to put on and take off. They do run smaller than size so order 1/2 size larger than your normal size...this was a suggestion I heeded from reading another reviewer, and happy I did. Will order again. Thanks Zappos!

Cool Looking Slippers - These are totally cool looking slippers, and they are also very warm and seem well made with a high-quality sole. For me the look beats out the lack of 100% comfort. The issue I have is that the end of the toe-box area of these are very narrow and press in on the sides of my big toes--which is common in some shoe brands in size 14's [in the upper sizes some shoe companies, notably Adidas, seem to just lengthen a 'normal-size' shoe as opposed to making the whole footprint bigger]. I compensate for this by folding down the heel and wearing them like slide-on slippers (since they do slide off while walking anyway as others have mentioned), and hope with wear over time the toe area will stretch out. But they are cool enough to warrant some work...

Globe Castro - I love love love this shoe - more of a driving moc, I suppose, but with a nice sole that allows you to wear it all the time outside. I get comments all the time on the style.

I love these shoes but the only problem is they start to smell really bad! And my shoes never smell...and trust me have about 30 different pairs of shoes that I wear frequently and none of them have ever smelt that bad. But other than that, two thumbs up!

Too small - I appreciated everything about the shoe... but it’s just about half an inch too small in the size 15... They should increase the size of the 15's about a half an inch.

These shoes are the best. I skate in these and they are really comfortable. All that you need if you skate in these is shoe goo cuz these will rip fast. But a really good shoe/slipper.

I love these slippers. Globe Castros are cool and comfy. Also, they are a great alternative to cheap flip flops. The size did seem to be slightly bigger than indicated but they are slippers after all. It's not like your going to be competing in them.

Got them for my dad - I got my dad the beige/tan ones and they are so cute! It says they are a slipper, but they could just as easily be a sneaker for outside as well. He likes them and I think they look great. Win/win.

The look and comfort of this shoe is awesome! I only have two issues. I ordered a size 13 and the shoe felt about a half a size smaller than other shoes I ordered. It also slips off my heel a bit when I walk...which is strange considering my toe barely touches the end. However, I can deal with it since I will only be wearing them occasionally.

Globe's Castro Shoes - I like 'em - Comfortable, affordable, and stylish. I have purchased 5 pairs of Globe shoes in various colors and I am still looking to add to my collection! Great shoes! However, I normally wear a size 8 or 8 1/2 men's shoes, but I always order size 9 in a Globe for the best fit.

Great casual slip on! Good on the go shoe you can just slip into. Above average comfort and most definitely above average style. I wear a size 14 but, a 13 fit better. Can’t go wrong with GLOBE!

Great comfort and style; sizes run small - The Castro is super comfortable and stylish. I like wearing with board shorts and no socks. I always wear a size 11, but am size 10 in these - so order them a size smaller than your usual. Even in the 10s, my heel sometimes slips out, but it’s worth the pain for fashionable outdoor slippers!

Viva Castro! I wear a 12 shoe and 11.5 size boot so I ordered these in 12 and they fit great. They don't slip of at the back and aren't too tight or rubbing in any place. My feet are somewhere around a D (medium) so I would say these are not narrow. Great style/look. I wear these around the house mostly when it's cool or cold outside.

SIZING IS OFF! Extremely comfortable shoe. HOWEVER - the sizes are off a whole size. So if you normally wear a 10, get an 11. Enjoy!

These shoes are very comfortable and look very nice. Consider ordering one size smaller than normal so that your heel won't slip out of the shoe when you walk.

Super fly shoes - They were kinda awkward for the first few times I wore them, but after a week or two they feel like you're walking on a cloud. A little bigger than they say but wear double socks if it bothers you too much. Super cool shoe. You can wear them around the house or at school.

Slippers is the key word. Been skating in them for a while and they haven't fallen off. I saw people with slight complaints of the show "slipping" off, but I just want to reiterate, that these shoes are indeed . . . slippers. Very comfortable and good arch support. Couldn't ask for more from a "slipper"!

Tweed shoes - They are hit-and-miss with compliments (some girls give them an awk look). Very casual and can wear them with shorts. Don’t think they run a 1/2 size too big anymore.

Decent shoe, not really a slipper - I bought these to replace some similarly modeled slippers. I wanted an outdoor sole, and these were pretty popular and looked cool. They're decent shoes, but they're not really slippers. When I think "slippers," I think "soft and comfortable." These are basically lightweight canvas shoes - there's no padded lining or really any "cush" to them. If I were in the market for that sort of shoe I'd keep them (or exchange them - they really are a half size small)... but I'm going to return them and do some more research.
