Overall rating: 4.3 / 5 from 8 reviews.

Incredible and comfortable but these do run big. Go a half size down unless you want your heel flopping out of the shoe. I'll be exchanging mine for a half size down.

Grounder x Engineered Garments Low-Top Black/Black

Because of reviews saying to downsize a half size, I purchased a smaller size and then had to exchange to my true size. They look great and fit well overall. My biggest complaint is that the base of the tongue does not stay up despite the attached inner band, causing it to bunch up as a ridged crease across the top of my foot. I love the look of them so much that I am willing to suffer a little until I can break them in. tldr: don't go steppin' out on the town right out of the box without a back up pair of comfy shoes.

Grounder Engineered Garments Low-Top Slip-On Black/Black

I was very intrigued by the design of the shoe - in particular the "rubber band" around the top and that it was shoelace-less. The tab to pull up the tongue is also very handy and a nice design feature. I am not such a fan of the tabs on the back - because it is a double loop, the fingers do not fit very well. I also think (because my foot is a bit wide) that the toe box is too narrow. There is nothing like feeling that my foot is in a "coffin."

They’re the right size however they will not stay on your foot. The heel will slip out every time you bend your foot. All of my other PF Flyers are a size 8, and this is the first time I’m exchanging or returning PF Flyers and I’m actually genuinely upset about it. They need to either make them tighter or create a grip at the heel or maybe a thicker ridge at the rim of the shoe where your foot enters. Otherwise, you’ll just get blisters or end up losing your shoe 24/7.
