Easy to get on but heavy and narrow
While I love they are all black and easy to get on, the main problem I have with ALL Kizik shoes is that they are so darn HEAVY and when you are older and have mobility issues that heavy weight makes them difficult to move in. These did not come in a wide so they are a bit tight but I am.in hopes they will stretch out a tad.

The perfect shoes!
I have worn the Kizik Athens Blackout since they first came out. I have No time to tie my shoes-that was my first draw. Then they were so comfortable, I reorder a new pair twice a year without fail. I am on my feet all day long and it is such a pleasure to wear my Kiziks!

Buying original GOOD Athens I while still available.
These are my 4th pair of the Original Athens. They fit me perfectly and last about a year wearing almost every day.
I’m sad that the “upgrade” Athens 2 is not the same quality as these original ones.
