Great pair of skate shoes
There are a lot of people that have mixed reviews on these shoes, coming from me who has been a skater since the early 1990’s I probably have a better idea on a skate shoe than 90 percent of the people buying them. If you are looking for the designed fit of the way old school school skate shoes were this is them. If you lace them like a moron that’s your problem. They have the same great fit as original Etnies and the balance of the DC command that phased out thru 94 98.ive seen pictures of some falling apart , well careful in your color selections ,odd colors are not shipped to the greatest of manufacturers in any country. I chose the same size I normally wear in any other skate shoes except for DVS is the only one I have ever had to go a 1/2 size up. Although I wish they made these in full leather they are great and the stitching seems on point . Where a lot of Osiris shoes that I have bought have been lacking or glues soles coming apart . A solid comfortable shoe and support , the air pocket in the back doesn’t do much for serious stairs but the padding in the front is by far some of the best I have felt in awhile.

Great looking shoes, fits as expected, and comfortable
Got these today, very nice shoes, looks just as good in person as they do online. I’ve been sporting skate shoes for the last few years mainly for the looks, but I’ve realized that comfort is becoming just as important to my feet as I get older. These shoes have that comfort to go along with the looks. I’ve bounced back and forth between a 12 and a 13, so I went with size 13 in these and they fit just fine. I don’t see any break in time needed for these. Great shoes!

Great shoe, they fit a half size small.
They fit quite small order a half a size bigger. Also tight around the toes when new. Broken in i quite like them. Not bad at all they just fit a bit smaller than most osiris pairs I've had.

Very nice comfortable shoes
I like the overall look. Now my husband has brand new very visually pleasing comfortable expensive shoes to walk out my door and life and into his side girls arms. He’ll probably use these beautiful shoes to walk to all his other side girls, run away from their boyfriends and husbands, and to attract other dumb easy girls. I hope he enjoys his present and I hope his side girl rolls in her anger because he won’t throw them away. Great shoes love them.

Order yours a half-size big! Seriously, they run a tad small.
I've now been wearing these waffle-stompers for about 2 weeks and I have to say...they're pretty rad. The soles are a bit stiff and will take some time to break-in, but I expect that from a legit skate shoe. You should definitely listen to the other reviewers about ordering a half-size bigger, because I originally didn't and had to exchange mine for an upsize. Overall, I love 'em and the return process was smooth as ever.

Nice Shoes, but Don't Over-wear Them
I bought these and another pair of Osiris' (Perils) in January of last year, so I've had them both for a little under a year now. I have worn the Pxl to work every day where I'm primarily in an office & woodworking shop. Of the 10 hours a day I work, about 7-9 of those hours are working at a desk, so they aren't put through the grinder by any means. When I get home, I take them off and they aren't used until the next work day.All that said, I guess I should have taken these as exactly what they are, which is a skate shoe, and not an every day shoe. I buy skate shoes for the look as well as the comfort as I have a big, wide foot and skate shoes tend to come in wider than Nikes or other readily available brands and look better. As you'll see from the pictures though, after roughly 10 months of wear the Pxl shoe is starting to fall apart.At the location just below the last shoelace where your feet bend, the material is cracked and torn on both sides where the synthetic meets the sole. I just noticed it today, but I now have holes on both sides of both shoes in that location. The toe box is also starting to separate from the rubber tread on the bottom of the shoe in a couple different places with both shoes.Overall I liked them when I got them and love the look; the charcoal and black goes with virtually anything I wear and they hide dirt and dust very well. I just wish I would have gotten at least a year out of them.

Hard to find, but worth searching for
I am not sure why so many styles of Osiris shoes are either temporarily or permanently out of stock, but I hope that changes soon. That being said - when you see what you like you gotta stock up! More and more skate companies are making vegan shoes, which is great, but Osiris has been doing this since as long as I can remember.So support them.
