All our sneakers are listed in standard US sizing. To convert from men’s to women’s sizes, add 1.5 sizes to the men’s size (for example, a men’s 7 is equivalent to a women’s 8.5).
Customers often prefer sizing up for a more comfortable fit in our Center and All-American franchises. Try a ½ size above your normal sneaker size.

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.
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.
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.
Pretty good shoes. The vent holes in the bottom let in sand and small rocks and that sucks. The tongue isn't attached to the sides of the shoe till the very bottom and that lets in sawdust and wood chips so that kinda sucks too. The back heal part seamed to come apart. These are one summer of use and are way better than vans that only last 2 weeks.
I was afraid these would be Chinese sizes.so I bought 11.5
I could have used an 11.
Thursday boot I have to get 11.5 for them to fit comfortably.
I love the Hugh toos .So I bought low tops in brown with black soles.
I love both of these so Im sending a friend a gift card so she can buy a pair too !
I had PF flyers when I was a kid. We used to Run Faster And Jump Higher !!!
Sometimes you gotta find something that says a lot about yourself. Sometimes it’s gotta be louder than the world around you this time around. When you know it’s right you just go with it . So here it is folks “ When you see me in my PF flyers believe me the first time” I can go anywhere in these and be comfortable in about anything I do. I get compliments as expected and that’s cool. The only thing that’s holding me back is how far will I go? Then really I think how far will I go until I don’t want to stop. My PF flyers and me VS the world.👍👍
Just got them today, they look amazing and fit great. They are sized similar to my Converse All Stars, but a lot more comfortable. I WILL be buying more!
More durable than the competition (we all know who I’m referring to), quite comfortable and light without the tradeoff of feeling cheap or fragile, 10/10. My adventure shoes go everywhere with me, from working at a mechanic shop, to urban exploration, to playing drums at a show (great drumming shoes btw, no extra pedal foot fatigue or restriction), to even a night out on the town where the compliments just roll in. I won’t have to get a new pair for a while but when I do, I’m getting these again.
Super comfy, I wanted a a standout unique show that is very classic at the same time. Shoes are great. they fit true to size. I am usually an 11.5 but I was worried they would be to narrow so I got 12. They fit perfectly, I probably could’ve got an 11.5 but I wanted to be safe and I have no regrets.
Look good and fit is excellent. 2 people asked what brand and when they were told PF Flyers they expressed surprise! I suspect new customers will be checking out the website.
I love these Grounders. They're a keeper and now my everyday footwear. I have no problem with the insoles, laces, and comfort. So far, I'm impressed with the durability, and everything is still intact. Good grip on various surfaces, so no slip and slide so far. These shoes are mostly canvas material, including the interior, so there's some breathability for my feet. The two holes on the side help too. My only criticism as of right now is that the tongue does not include a small loop to run the laces through to keep the tongue centered while wearing the shoes. As someone with WIDE feet, I recommend people to go up a size. Unlike Converse shoes, these PF Flyer Grounds have a wider toe box, but I would still suggest going about a half inch or a whole inch so your pinky toe isn't suffering. I ordered a pair of Grounders before in size 10.5, but ran into that problem. Now I have a pair in size 11, and it has made a huge difference. All you people with wide feet, please take that into consideration before making your choice!
I’m used to used Cinvers All Star, but I’m still happy with these ones really happy, the confort and the style are so good, also I’m in fall of the color! Thank you very very much!
First of all, they look AWESOME. I work in a fabrication shop on concrete all day- I bought these for work. So far (three weeks of wearing them) I have no issues! Get lots of compliments on them and they're very comfortable 😎
