Review: Panther Sneakers (Vegetarian Shoes)

Panther Sneakers (Vegetarian Shoes)


Cerchi la versione in italiano? Salta alla fine del post!


Label: Vegetarian Shoes
Model: Panther Sneakers, black
I was looking for: a sneakers to replace my worn out Adidas Gazzelle, water resistant

Size: 38 EU

Date of purchase: dicember 2012
Price: £69.95 + delivery £28.00
Coupon: -
Delivery time: 12 days
Notes on the seller/e-shop: -
Payment: credit card

Outsole: elastic
Insole: normal feeling
Upper: hard in the bending point (near foot toes) at the beginning, then normal. High on the instep, it ends right under the ankle.
Heel: 2 cm

First use: the size is correct. The upper is rigid and bend everytime in the same point, so it hurts a lot because it hits over the foot toes at every step.
First test performed during a 3 hours walk downtown: after 10 minutes walking the upper soften and stop hurting.

Bending point

Bending point


Further uses: the first 10 minutes of use are always hurting because of the bending problem. Left shoe soften after about 4 uses.
After 6 uses, the right shoe is still hurting at the very beginning then it soften after 10 minutes walking or during the first hour if you sit at the desk. I think that when the material start to warm up, it gets better.

My opinion: Good sneakers, really water resistant during winter rainy days. The right shoe is not completly soften, but after 10 minutes of use no more problems. The shoes are made in Portugal.
