Men's Martial Art Kung Fu Tai Chi Cotton Sole Canvas Shoes

Superbly comfortable. A great pleasure to slip into these after a hard hot day. They feel instantly cool and comfortable on my beaten up feet.

If you are 11in long feet and narrow this is perfect for you.

I use these as house slippers, not for tai chi. I find them slippery at first, but less slippery with wear (say, after a few weeks); this wearing process is desirable to me, but probably not for people practicing tai chi. They are a bit small compared to US sizing—for those who know European sizes, my US size 11 came marked 45, but it feels probably more like 44 or less; this US size 10.5 wearer found them narrower and shorter than my usual shoes. However, after some adjustment, I like this fit. There's not much support, which is fine with me for house-slipper use and probably desirable in a tai chi slipper.Some people mention getting shoes with rubber soles. I've now bought two pairs, and they have both come with cloth soles.I don't know exactly when the inner lining started tearing, but it took about 6 months to become unbearable for me—though my experience was so good in the meantime that I ordered another pair. One particular problem was that, if a little piece of detritus ever got into the body of the shoe, it would slip into the lining through a tear, and couldn't be extracted without more tearing. The pictures are of a new right slipper next to an 8-month-old right one.

I have purchased these slippers many times before, and they used to be an excellent product. But man, have they ever gunked these up! The sizing has changed, so they no longer fit well. The material has also changed, making them much stiffer and harder to flex. They used to be oh, so comfortable; now they're decidedly un-. They used to provide good traction when you moved around, now they cause you to slip and slide like the proverbial banana peel.I hate it when a good, reliable product becomes unusable, because the manufacturer decided to cut some corners. But that's exactly what happened it this case.

Delivered next day, men's Tai chi shoes. I ordered two sizes smaller than my woman's size. I'm an 8 so I ordered a size 6 in men's and they fit great. Looking forward to my next Tai chi class.

I have been looking for these for about a year. I have a pair that's about5 years old. They are very comfortable and as you can see, last a long time. These are a fantastic shoe for around the house. Thank you

I purchased a pair of these two years ago. They were cloth uppers and size 12 (European 46). I recently ordered another pair, same size. I received a pair with canvas uppers (a little stiffer but looked much more durable) but they were much smaller than the first pair, about a US size smaller I would estimate. I exchanged these for a pair one size bigger (US 13, European 47). What I received was cloth, not canvas uppers as the description says, and a little too large for me.So it's a gamble as to what you're going to get and what the actual size will be.

True to size and very comfortable!
