User Reviews
First of all, when the shoe came in the mail I was disappointed at how cheap it looked in real life. It looked much higher quality in the photos, which shows that sometimes you just can't tell. That said, I paid $23.98 for it on sale, so it was rather cheap so I guess you get what you pay for. I guess I was surprised because I have bought several other skate shoes through amazon (though different brands) that were around $17 and have been excellent quality (made with far better materials and such).The shoe is comfortable though, and the sizing is accurate. Over all, it is a good shoe but it looks and feels like a shoe you would buy at Payless. Theres nothing wrong with Payless shoes, they are just a cheaper looking and feeling shoe than better quality brand names.So anyway, if there was one main point I could warn about, is that the shoes look extremely plastic-y and cheap.The lesson I learned was to be wary of what brand the shoe is, I am going to stay away from Osiris brand from now on. (On a side note, the excellent shoes for $17 I got were Circa brand, I would recommend that brand, they are often on sale here.)
These shoes are all around worth every penny! Both well made & comfortable. I normally wear a 9-9.5 but I ordered the pink and blue in a size 10 and they fit perfect!!!! so bright and fun! I was worried they would be too big but because of the padding they fit just right. I recommend going a size up like I did because this brand of shoes fit small.
I love these shoes!!!. Very comfortable. I would 100 percent get these again. These are the only women Osiris I loved.
thank you for fast shipping. i love these shoes so much i wear em sometimes
