Osiris Men's Mith Skate Shoe

I bought these after my 4 year old pair of C1RCA's finally started falling apart. I wanted to go for something a bit different so I went with these (in the cream/black/acid because my girlfriend insisted that I can "totally rock them"...I don't think that's the case but I bought them anyway). I'm used to the huge, padded skate shoes so transitioning to a cloth-style shoe was an adjustment.Pros1. The shoe fit well. I wear a men's 9.5, that's what I ordered, and that's what I received. Shoe fit with about a thumb's width of room to spare which is what I wanted.2. I like the design. I got the tie-dye ones. I have no intention on trying to keep these sparkling clean. Thanks to their messy, but fun design, I can spill pretty much whatever I want on these and it'll just blend right in. Ultimate lazy shoes ftw.3. They are comfortable and they fit well. I keep mine looser so I can slip them on and off like slippers and that works for me even if my foot comes out of the heel a little bit when I walk. When tied tight, they're very snug.4. Reasonably priced. I bought these for under $30. A name brand shoe for under $30 is uncommon. It also makes me less concerned about destroyed them because I can more easily justify destroying a $30 pair of shoes than a $60 pair of shoes.Cons1. They are not for wide-footed people. I have a medium width foot and they are comfortable but I can definitely feel a bit of a squeeze on the bottom of my feet. I wore them for 12 consecutive hours when I first got them and didn't experience any pain or discomfort but if my foot were even a quarter of an inch wider, that would not have been the case. If you need wide shoes, these aren't what you're looking for.2. These are not for walking, running, skateboarding, or any other physical activity. They're "fashion" shoes meant to be worn to places like a movie theater, out to dinner, or going to parties/bars/etc. They give a skater look but are not a skate shoe. Since I don't skate, that works for me but athletes looking for an athletic shoe need to look elsewhere.3. In cold weather or when there's precipitation (rain, snow, sleet, etc), you might as well be outside wearing 2 pairs of socks. They don't keep your feet warm or very dry thanks to their cloth design. Not a deal breaker (I knew this when I bought them) but just pointing it out.Overall, I'm happy with the purchase. If I'd bought these for, say, $60, I probably would've dropped it to a 4-star rating so price was definitely taken into account here. They are comfortable for "goofing around" which is good because that's what I was looking for. I'll likely get a second pair of the thicker skate shoes for those days where I'm talking around somewhere and need the extra ankle and arch support. I would recommend these but only if you have medium to thin feet and just need a shoe for goofing around.

Exactly how it was described by the seller, fits exactly how I expected it.Now I don't skate, I DO NOT recommend this shoe for skateboarding. Osiris, the brand, claims it to be but in my opinion its not sturdy enough. Doesn't matter, I never picked up a skateboard in my life. The Osiris Mith and the Osiris NYC 83 VLC aren't BUILT skateboarding shoes, they're more of a lifestyle/fashion shoes with a "skater look", thus the name "Stake shoe" I suppose.Anyway, they have the durability of any one of my other brand of shoes(nike, clarks etc), just not as strong as a shoe BUILT for skating.This is my 3rd pair of Osiris shoes. I have A grey NYC 83 VLC and a grey Mith. Will be buying a red and a black with the white sole from this SAME SELLER next month. Its a dam good buy and I recommend it, just not for skateboarding but for wearing casual or wherever.

But please keep in mind that these are VERY narrow. I don't even have wide feet and they are tight. I understand that "M" was listed as the width but I have had Mediums fit much better than this. Imma have to return these. But it isn't because of anything other than that reason. The shoe itself looks great and I can tell they are made well. So if width isn't an issue to you at all then you will love these.

The soles are very slippery,im just walking ..and i fell down on the floor when i use this shoes.i hurt my elbow,wrist and back.not safe to use.i immedietly throw it to the garbage

Great for the sale price, but wouldn't pay the full ticket - the material is thin, there's no padding around the sides, and the soles are hard. But the design is cool as hell.

These are very cool looking shoes. As with most skate shoes they are flat so if you have problems with your arches these are definitely not the shoes for you.

I am not flat-footed. After spending most of my time in Asics running shoes, I found these Osiris shoes like walking on cutout plywood. No support at all! Three stars given for color and style.

These are some spunky shoes with a lot of character. They were comfortable, affordable, and I love them.
