Center Vintage High-Top Black/Biscotti

Very comfortable and hardly required any break in. I wore these out on a six mile walk (mostly paved) for their debut and had zero issues with rubbing or pinching. I really wish there was a size chart featured on the site though instead of instructions to buy a “half size up from what I usually wear” when in some brands I’m an 11 and in others I’m a 9.5. Wound up googling standard shoe sizing and taking the gamble, but I almost missed out on getting these because I was worried I’d just sign myself up for the extra errand of exchanging them.

I love my PF Flyers!!! My very first sneakers, my first PF Flyers, I got was when I was 7 or 8 years old around 1958. When I was a child, it was determined I had extreme flat feet and was forced to wear special corrective shoes with special arches. Wearing sneakers was a definite No No. When I first discovered PF Flyers, saw the advertisement,(RUN FASTER, JUMP HIGHER), I had to have a pair. I begged and begged my mom to buy me a pair. After a while she gave in and bought me a pair. She bought high tops, as she wanted me to get good support for my ankles. When my father found out I got the sneakers, he got mad at my mother. I wasn't supposed to wear sneakers. I worshipped those PF Flyers, wore them every day, after school. I wore them out and never forgot them. I really did RUN FASTER and JUMPED HIGHER then. I really felt invincible in those sneakers!! When I found out that you still make those PF Flyers, I couldn't believe it, had to have a pair. You know what? Today I'm almost 75 years old and I still can RUN FASTER, AND REALLY JUMP HIGHER in my PF FLYERS, even if it's only in my heart.

The shoe looks great . However I have a wide foot and you do not have wide options. I am a 9.5 W So it is too tight on the sides and I can only wear it for short periods of time. Then have to take the pair off. John
