"Originally wore these shoes to tournaments, but they were so comfortable I made them my going to work shoes! They're not great in adverse weather, but they weren't made for that, so that's very light criticism."
"So far so good , comfortable and good feel. If they hold up will be ordering another pair, from ankle to top center toes portion could be just a little thicker. Would stand up good for doing round house kicks on a bag. Just my opinion, will let you know."
"This is the second pair I bought from Century and this pair fits perfectly and I find they are very comfortable"
"I recently retired my previous pair after 10 or so years of training. They were an old friend, but had surrendered their last full measure of devotion. New pair arrived and all is well. Fit is the same, and the slight amount of lateral support again is a plus."
"I had an old pair of Century shoes that I really liked. They were nearly 20 years old. After shopping for a replacement I decided to go with Century again and I am very happy with the quality and fit. I previously had ordered an 8. 5 size so I ordered the same even though one review said the sizing was not correct. I am happy with the fit with this same size. Recommend."
"These shoes are light and comfortable. They allow me to move easily on the mat and don't interfere with my ability to kick."
"Overall, these shoes work well for my kick boxing workouts. They are high quality constructed, comfortable, and pivot easily for round and side kicks. Sizing is same as any athletic shoe, but they run a bit wide and the single lace at the top does not allow the shoe to be cinched around your foot."
"I was very excited to receive the shoes, but that followed quickly with disappointment. Upon opening the box, I noticed there were scuff marks on a shoe, stain marks on the shoe and the glue for the soles to the shoe Literally look like it was done with the hot glue gun and just pressed on there with glue coming out the sides. The shoe itself was comfortable but the quality control that this went through was absolutely horrible. I was going to exchange them, but decided just to keep them because they're gonna get messed up anyways. I was just very unpleased with the product that I received as far as looks go if I pay almost $90 for a "new" pair of shoes. I would have at least expected them not to look like they were worn then returned or better, yet just slap, together with some glue and have scuff marks on them and still ship to me. Since they were comfortable, I gave them two stars. If they weren't, I would've gave them a one"
"good quality and fast delivery"
"Any 0 star for option? Very unlikely to return. I measured my feet carefully and followed the size chart on the website, but the first pair was ridiculously small. I triple-checked the chart and even ordered a size up for the exchange—still too small. Now I have to exchange again for yet another size up. I've already spent over $50 just on exchange shipping costs. I won't be shopping here again and definitely wouldn't recommend ordering shoes from this site."
