As a U.S. Marine veteran, I love these shoes. They breathe well, and they're practical. The sole's tread pattern is bold and aggressive; it'll keep me from sliding down the proverbial cliff. Their look, with the black rubber applied generously around the toe and the bottom edge, is outstanding. I do like the original WWII-era olive drab (O.D.) shade, although a darker shade wouldn't hurt. (The military used a darker shade for use in Vietnam, to blend in better in the jungle.) The only major complaint I have is the black laces. The black laces against the light O.D. background looks clownish to me. I pulled them out and have replaced them with O.D. parachute cord. Now the shoes look more military and serious. Also, the nylon parachute suspension lines will wear much longer than the original laces. So, this was a minor complaint that was easily remedied!

The PF Flyers fit perfectly and it’s nice to return to a brand that I loved as a kit. They are well constructed and should last me years.

3rd pair of P.F.s! 1st pair of the Grounders - they look great, feel great, and are such a cool olive green color they compliment nearly everything I wear.

Grounder High-Top Olive Green/Black

I like the look and the color. I haven't worn anything but diabetic shoes for several years. So far these are working. If they continue to work I will consider buying similar styles.

Grounder High-Top Olive Green/Black

The shoes are outstanding. They are comfortable, thick soles and durable laces. Don't tie them too tight at the top!

Grounder High-Top Olive Green/Black

Order came quickly. Sneakers fit well out of the box. Have worn them a few times to break them in. Quality looks great and size is close to foot.

Grounder High-Top Olive Green/Black

Great shoes. True to size. This is my 3rd pair of PF flyers. Used them in the military and im still using them. Durable and great cushion.

Customer photo review of Grounder High-Top Olive Green/Black

I bought these about 2 years ago so I could have a good shoe to hike, fish, work, and travel with. I have never had a better shoe. My line of work involves a lot of outdoor and rocky environments. I have walked through creeks, gone over large rock formations, and even worked as a camp counselor in these. They are fantastic. These shoes have gotten me through rain, snow, sun, and just about everything else. I love em. The only issue I had is that I wore out the laces and the fabric that keeps the ankle rubber in there has ripped, which is from me putting em through it for these past 2 years. They still got some use in em and they still get the job done.

I’m 69 years old and just did a very intensive 12 mile backcountry backpacking trip with my son and his stepson. The PF Flyers Grounders were absolutely amazing. Great support, stuck to rocks wet or dry. I’m so happy with these things. These are my new hiking shoes and I absolutely love them and I’m gonna be getting a couple more pairs.

Grounder High-Top Olive Green/Black

IMMEDIATELY I liked these shoes- I mean the INSTANT I put them on. The toe box is PERFECT. I might like these even better than my Converse. They lace up beautifully and have great support. Liked them so much I just bought another pair. Excellent investment.

Love these shoes! Normally a Converse girl, tried my first pair of PF Flyers, i am sold!!!! In love with them.

Grounder High-Top Olive Green/Black

I’ve been wearing these for a couple of weeks now, and I’m really happy with them. The olive green and black colors look even better in person. The quality is solid too. The stitching is clean, the materials feel durable, and they have that classic PF Flyers look with a slightly more rugged vibe.

The Grounders were better than expected! Great fit, A+ construction, and very comfortable. Preparing my next purchase. Thanks for a great product.

I appreciate the reminder when the shoes were available in my size, and they arrived as planned after I ordered. I received tracking updates throughout the process. This was a quality purchase and event.

Love my OD Green high top Grounders. Takes me back to my ten year old self. Run faster, jump higher, while setting the perfect office casual mode. Fits perfect for my feet. Width and toe box is just right for a regular size. Size is bank on. Super psyched to get these, well worth the wait. Looks like a brown leather pair is on the list next. lol Get some. They’ ll make you glade you did. Chuck never had it this good.
