Pros & Cons
Pros
These are an exact reproduction of the stan smith adidas tennis shoes from the '70's, which were worn by carl kolchak. The sneakers come with extra laces. If this shoe has been around this many years, it has to be good!
Cons
The description on the listing says they're made of synthetics and leather. I painted and dyed them black with leather dye and it barely took. They are definitely not the same shoe from the 70s, it's more like a very bad clone.
Highlights
Quality
I like quality items at a fair price.
Very good adidas quality -- good for tennis & everyday wear
Got a feeling that it is not authentic product.

It irritates the heel area after several minutes of wear sometimes it even makes it bleed
