Gazelle Sneaker (Women)

Very comfortable and stylish sneaker!! I have bunions so I usually opt for an 8 1/2 in a sneaker. I loved everything about this sneaker except for the plastic tongue that cut into my skin when I walked. Even though another customer remarked about this defect, I purchased the the sneaker anyway because of the suede material, color, side silver stripes, and the cool white stripe in the back. None of these things matter if it hurts to walk!!!

These are very cute — they looked great on my feet. Unfortunately, I had 2 problems with them. First, they do run big. I’m an 8 or 8.5 in most shoes, and the 8 here was a bit too big. Second, the tongue is made of a stiff foam that both felt uncomfortable and made a weird squeaking sound. If Adidas ever goes back to a normal tongue on these, I’ll be first in line to order a 7.5.

I was so excited to get my hands on this shoe. I normally wear a 7.5 or an 8 and went with a 7 and I think it fit as it should have. However, the tongue of this shoe is white plastic…and not some kind of magical soft plastic. I was struck by the cheap look and feel of it immediately, but more so than that, walking across my living room proved the tongue would cut into the top of my ankle/foot instantly. So disappointed. Don’t be sold by the influencers on this one.

Tried so hard to get these during Anniversary Pre-Sale (they sold out immediately), then they arrived and the shoes are different colors. ☹️ The right shoe is more rose-toned, while the left is straight-up tan. Really disappointing, so back they go. Hoping to maybe find a return that actually matches. 🙄 As for fit, I found them to run exactly a half-size large. I am a pretty true 8.5, bought the 8 in these based on reviews and they fit perfectly.

These were a big disappointment. First of all, straight out of the box, they made noises as I walked in them. Second, they felt a bit big for my normal size 9, they rubbed in my heel and did not feel comfortable at all. I have black Reeboks, and they are a lot more comfortable. I have always thought Adidas was a great brand but now I’ve changed my mind. The look is cute but they basically hurt my feet. I couldn’t wait to get back home and take them off. I probably won’t be able to return them, but I doubt I will wear them again. I asked family members I thought were the same shoe size as me so I could give them away, but nobody I know wears a 9. I guess I will try to sell them.
