Awesome color combination but the workmanship is poor as this is the second pair of Slymz that I've have a problem with the sole detaching from the shoe body. I won't recommend this shoe for anyone who walks. The strange thing is I've had the Slymz mid for over 2 years now with no problems.

These shoes are great. Very comfortable, well-made, and with a very slim sole which I always want but have a hard time finding. The only gripe I have is that the overhead silhouette is strange and long. It doesn't have that swell at the balls of your feet and then rounding off or coming to a point, it just sort of looks like a long oval. Looking at the overhead shot of the shoe in the gallery above, you might think that, once laced, they are pulled taught over the shape of your foot, but they don't really do that. Anyway, the only person who'll really notice this is you, the person wearing them. The silhouette from the side, however, is great. Overall I love these shoes.

Look great. Perfect for a modern office environment — a touch more casual than a traditional Oxford yet more stylish than sneakers.

The color of this shoe was pretty great. The shoe itself was terrible. I put it on and the fabric was so thin, waxed or no, that I could see the bones in my foot -- not just the toes, but the ones in the middle too, weirdly -- clearly. It looked like a baby Alien wriggling around in there. I ordered an 11 because of references to it running small, but while it fit fine width-wise, there was a full 1-2 inches left in the toe. Terrible!

I love this backpack. I bought it because my one-shouldered Chrome bag was hurting my back and shoulder when I carried my laptop in it. I don't even feel my laptop now with this backpack. It has a ton of nice pockets, and I really love the insulated one. I use it to pack my lunch for work. The fabric is water-resistant. A great bag that is worth the money!

Only slightly narrow. Very stylish. A great sneaker alternative to Converse or Vans. Seem well made. Should hold up like any other pair of sneakers in this price range.

I was really bummed out with this shoe. I have had them for two months and rarely wear them. There is already a crack in the sole and they are separating on the side. I really liked the look and style.

Alright, so I figure since I'm actually back shopping on Zappos I'll take time out to write a quick review which is something I never do, but damn. These are the most comfortable shoes I have EVER owned, or tried on for that matter. I work at a DC Shoes outlet and have tried on many shoes (mostly skate) and none of them come close to comfort, style, or looks. I usually wear a size 11 so that's what I ordered and they fit great. Snug but not tight, breathable and great for everyday use. Surprised nobody has written a review for these yet because all I can say is "wow." I will definitely consider getting a second pair. WELL worth the money.

After reading the reviews on the sizing of these shoes I decided to order my usual size and I must say they run true to size. I don't wear socks with these and they could be a tad bit smaller but I think If i ordered a half size down, they'd be too tight. It's a great simple shoe but the mid version in the Slymz are much cooler ! too bad the good colors are discontinued.

A cool pair of shoes. It feels true to size. But the Mid version is definitely the better edition. Too bad the awesome colors are discontinued. But I'll recommend it if you're looking for a great all round shoe to kick around in. Good value for money and looks great even when the leather gets scuffed!

Awesome shoes, my only concern is that it is a tad larger than what I expected I always order the same shoe size and get the same length, but when I ordered Gravis it is about an inch larger than the average shoes so I had to send it back again for a smaller size. It would be great if they had the pure white style, I would definitely buy one.

This is my best shoe buy for the year. I really like the suede material, dark blue color, and brown laces. This combination allows you dress up or dress down your outfit. It's also really comfortable with a lot of interior cushion below your feet and around it as well.

Very sharp looking shoe. Not as comfy or well padded as Vans, but definitely a great summer or spring shoe. I love the dove color. It blends well with both dark/black clothing and lighter summer/spring apparel.

Some of my favorite shoes I've ordered from Zappos thus far. They're very light and feel great on your feet and they're a great looking pair of shoes that aren't flashy. My only complaints are that after a month or two, they are starting to get a little sun-faded, but wear them nearly everyday and it looks kinda neat anyway. Great shoe, don't hesitate to try some gravis shoes when the price is right.

A very fashionable boat shoe, it fits like a slipper. I love the look and feel of the Gravis Skipper. I'm not sure I'd feel comfortable wearing it on a boat -- but it is great for a landside lunch by the water. Shoe size runs narrow.

I would say these shoes fit true to size (I ordered a half size up based on the other review, but the extra half size seems a little loose).

I quite like this shoe. I thought the wax might scuff or look terrible after some of 'those' nights but it looks almost new after a month of wear. Although the style is excellent in my opinion, I wouldn't wear this shoe for anything other than casual walking around.

Really like these, though they're about a half size too small - I just wear really thin socks to compensate. The wax coating looks really sleek and is slightly water resistant, so no soggy toes. I also like the looks without laces, the tongue is secured in place a bit so you're not flopping around in your shoes.

I was really happy to find these shoes on Zappos. Gravis' IV SK8 range is great, and this is my 4th pair. I have 3 pairs of the filter shoe in various materials, and when I saw these in an ad in a skateboard magazine I had to pick up a pair. Zappos, if you're reading, try to get the whole Gravis range on here, their shoes are amazing! The shoes are true to size, the lining is really soft and the premium materials give them a unique look. You don't see waxed suede very often. They're comfortable enough to wear during the day, and stylish enough to wear them at night.
