Chinese Traditional Old Beijing Shoes Unisex Martial Art Kung Fu Tai Chi Rubber Sole Shoes

It's difficult to find the right fit. I am between a 38 and a 39 and decide to order 39 and wear thicker socks. I normally wear a US 7 Wide. The shoes are well made with a rubber sole. I wear them to taiji classes but also sometimes at home as house shoes. They are comfortable, light and sturdy. Would recommend.

The soles are padded inside and fit very well. I wear them daily outside running chores. They slip on easily too. They are true to size and I find them to be more comfortable than sneakers. Glad I got them! They shipped quickly and were in perfect condition when they arrived. I’ve not had a problem with traction.

Size chart update- There's multiple charts listed but scroll down to description by company and close to end is the size chart that reflects what they send. On that chart I needed to order a 7 to get the 39 that I wanted. The link for size listing at the top is not accurate. Nice for what they are but the sizing is difficult. I ordered the 6.5 because the size chart listed said that was a 39. What I got was a pair labeled 38 so they are a half size short and are not wide enough across my toes. i do have wide toes so for a normal or narrow these are nice. For quality and materials they are as described.

Comfortable

I have a love-hate relationship with these shoes. Pros: -These shoes are very flexible. You can fold them (reasonably) without breaking them and stack them on top of each other. -These shoes are very flat (with maybe a slightly elevated heel). They make for good weight lifting shoes as a result. Cons: -They smell like they came from a petroleum factory when I first got them. It took a few days to air them out and they still left a chemical smell on my socks when I wore them. -The fit is very odd. The top fabric is non-elastic fabric. Putting your foot in is actually kind of difficult because there is no stretch to the shoes' uppers, but removing them is awkwardly easy because they do not grip your heels at all. If you were to swing your leg and point your foot in midair, as if you were going to kick something, the shoes will get close to slipping off, or will slip off. -Despite the bottom patterning, these shoes are not grippy. I recommend keeping them clean on the bottom to maximize grip. Otherwise, these might be dangerous and slippery if you wear them on a polished wooden dance floor (I speak from personal experience). I usually wear men's US size 10.5-11, depending on the brand, and I thought sizing was correct. Despite what others say, if you measure the length of your foot like they mention in the product description pictures, you should be able to get the correct size. I confirmed this with customer service, who was prompt in answering my questions about sizing. You really should measure your foot on a piece of paper. Ultimately, I got size 10.5 for my 270-275 mm length feet. Ultimately, sizing issues aside, I do not recommend these shoes if you plan to do vigorous movement in them (like running, kicking, or dancing). The grip over the foot and on the floor is just not good enough. However, if you only plan on walking in them or doing activities that require little foot movement (like weight lifting), these are great shoes if you can get over the chemical smells in the beginning. With the appropriate activities in mind, these shoes might be good for you.

i used these for a tai chi class comfortable and good fit

Size 43 is way too small for my 10 1/2 foot. I wish - after so many years of making these - that the folks that make them would have a more user friendly system of measurement. I can't give a rating yet, as I haven't been able to put the shoe on yet!! Grrrr. I hope I can return this, otherwise I'll just try again I suppose.

Nice if sizing was easier to navigate and they had better soles

Son bonitos pero algo calurosos no sen de algodon

Es handelt sich gute Qualität, die Größe ist wie erwartet sehr bequem. Die Liferung erfolgte schnell und zuverläßig. Richtig stylisch

molto leggere e comode, il piede respira benissimo, sono piuttosto estive ma vanno bene anche in casa e sicuramente x allenamento in Dojo.

'Ai acheté ce produit comme chaussons de maison car j’aime le design

My heals keep slipping off because the shoe is too large.
