Pelotas XLite Sneaker (Men)

After traditional Pelotas, the XL versions are my second favorite. The Pelota XL really hits the mark between Camper style, comfort and wearability. My closet is filled with them. What I will note that in my size (44) there has been some inconsistency in the fit where being slightly tight has become even more tight. It just requires a bit more break-in time. I do like the lighter weight for those days I will be on my feet a long time. I also think that in the leather versions, they seem to be a bit more susceptible to wear and require a bit more polish to always look their best. If you take care of them, and depending on how you wear them, you can expect 2 solid years if these are your only pair of shoes. In comparison with the Original Pelota the XL version is a great value.

I have always wanted this model. This is my fifth Camper and I find their shoes phenomenal. I saw people complain about the quality recently of this model but time will show it. Overall extremely comfortable, true to size and lightweight. The leather is soft and the size works with my special insoles.
