I bought these for my 14 year old son. He loves them and is especially glad to find them in his size 14. Well made and he says they are comfortable for skate shoes.

Great shoes! I gave them to my wife for Christmas and now, she's nice to me! Thank you, Fallen! Your shoes saved my marriage!

I will say the shipping was really fast. I love the shoes! They feel already broken in, good grip, and they just look sweet.

Very comfortable. Holds up well (unless you skate them). I have a pair of these that are two years old.

Great pair of shoes! They fit true to size and are a good price. It is easy to find other brands in local stores, but Fallen skate shoes are sometimes hard to come by!

These are amazing shoes. They are my favorite shoe period. I had Adios for a week and they were torn up bad. I have had these for 2 weeks and they are almost in the same shape that they were when they were new. They have a thin tongue and padding which I like. They have a vulcanized sole which makes them have amazing board feel. I highly recommend these shoes.

Don't believe this guy. They are pretty good, probably the best looking Fallen shoe. They last good, but not as good as some other Fallen or another brand shoes. Overall, great grip, boardfeel, colorways, flexibility and price.

The Forte looks great and is extremely comfortable right out of the box. For skateboarding they are ready to ride as soon as you get them. However, they do not hold up well at all. Mine have been skated lightly over the last two months and they are done for now. This is not the best purchase for skating, but for daily wear they would be a great buy. Many people feel shoes are smaller than marked, but they might want to figure out what their real size is.

These are the best shoes I have ever purchased. They're comfortable right out of the box. They're true to size, and they also look great. I want to wear them all the time! Zappos service and delivery also the best!

I ordered these shoes in the black with black and the grey with yellow. I kept the black; returned the grey. The grey/yellow looked too plastic; whereas the black had little luster so looked like leather. Generous across the knuckles (where bunions would be). Although the sole absorbs some shock, after two hours of walking on a concrete floor, my feet felt some stress. Just a heads up for those spending a lot of time at non-carpeted warehouse stores.

These are great shoes! I love Clark Privos and this is my second pair. The style is perfect for tooling around urban areas and they are super comfortable for long days of walking. No break in time, comfy right out of the box.

Love Privos! I brought my first pair last year, this is my second pair, just order my third pair. These shoes are so comfortable and easy on my feet. This pair I purchase for my vacation to Florida everyone was staring. Zappos you folks are the best thanks for the making shopping online easy and worry free. Great customer service.

Major comfort and fit from the first try on. I ordered a second pair, same one. Have had many compliments even with my size 12s

Cute, fashionable sneaker. Would look cute with short dresses even. Nice padded foot bed. I usually wear 8.5 and these are pretty wide at the forefront, which is probably why they're comfortable. I'm keeping and I'll slip an insert in for even more plush comfort. Cute, cute, cute!

I wear these shoes for my daily commute. They were comfortable right out of the box for lots of walking. My only complaint, which is why I went three stars on style, is that the way the upper is cut makes it look like my feet are turning in. I'm sure no one else notices, but it drives me crazy when I look down at my feet! Super comfy, great for lots of walking.

This is my second pair and one of the most comfortable shoes I've ever owned. I hardly even know they're on my feet.

I purchased these for a 10 day trip to Germany that included lots of daily walking. I wore them every day, they did not bother my feet at all. They have a thin cushiony sole but somehow my feet never got tired. They fit easily in my luggage. I am a 10.5 but ordered the 10 based on other recommendations and they fit just fine.

I have a really hard time finding any sporty shoe that is comfortable all day. This one fills the bill and is very cute. I have received many compliments. I wish it came in brown too.
