Review on πŸ‘Ÿ Gola Men's Comet Plimsoll Athletic Shoes by Damian Toupal

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Size, color, construction impressions (never worn)

I wear a 10.5 based on the reviews here, I've ordered up to 11 but this made the shoe too big. If you wear very thick socks, you might be fine. Also, the yellow color is not light yellow like a taxi/canary as shown in the photo but more of a dark beige yellow. The shoes are light but the upper has thin padding on the inside which I think makes them less breathable compared to regular canvas. So I might have to wear in-ear socks with it instead of walking on socks. As with many shoes of this type, the insole is very soft and, together with the thin sole, does not offer enough support. So plan for a heel counter/insole/replacement insole if you intend to walk a lot. The sockliner is better than most β€” it's cushioned and lined with the same canvas as the upper β€” and feels like it's glued to a thin layer of foam in the rearfoot. Return and order a smaller/different size. Color replacement (which is from the UK!)

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model
