Renzo Rosso created the Diesel brand in 1978, choosing the name because it is easy to understand, pronounced the same way around the world, and has a rugged feel about it; at that time, diesel was also considered an "alternative energy" so it was representative of an alternative taste in casual wear. Retro-inspired sneaker featuring lace-up vamp and logoed stripe at lateral side.

The sole is a bit thin, which I expected for shoes of this style, but I figure if it gets to be a problem, I'll get some Superfeet inserts. I got those for my snowboard boots, even though the original sole was pretty comfortable, but the Superfeet were just a couple of levels better, and they were one of the best purchases I've ever made."
", I wish diesel still made cool shoes like these, nowadays they make ugly sh**."
"The shoes fit a bit large in toe length. I first bought a 9.5 which is my normal size shoe."
"These shoes look good, fit well, & I get a number of compliments on them."
"Not as supple and soft as the the pair I was trying to replace, but still a comfortable, well made and great looking sneaker."
"there isn't zero arch support, but it isn't great, which is ok for me. if you run your hand through the inside of the shoe, you can feel cushion in the heel that runs just past the arch and then thins out the rest of the way to the toe."
"Great shoe!!!!"
"The lightest grey area on the website photo is quite a lot darker, while the darker grey areas in the website photo are actually very dark."

"But I did not think the Achilles portion of the boot would be so flimsy, causing a definite rub and chafe on the back of my ankle."
"The leather is slightly stiff, as expected, but after a few days of use they'll break in nicely."
"These just look cool."
"Keep them polished and they'll last a long while; I'm only now at over 2 years starting to feel the wear in the sole on my right foot, which for daily wear for that long, isn't meant to be a complaint."
"this is my first pair of boots ever!"
"I love these boots- but they do run small and narrow, so I had to return them. I ordered a size 10 (I'm a 10 in most every other type of footwear), and these were easily 2 sizes too small."
"They feel comfortable like a sneaker, but wear like a hipster boot."
Shaft measures approximately 8" from arch. Square-toe boot featuring harness strap at ankle with metallic ring and studs.

"A lot of reviews complain about these boots being uncomfortable, but if you've broken in REAL boots before, you wont be disappointed."
"I bought these because I have pretty much worn the tread off my previous FRYE boots (after about ten years of use)."
"I was originally looking for Frye engineer boots just because I liked the line, straps, and buckles on an engineer boot but for some reason Frye makes the shorter 8r engineer boot only for women and the men's boots in 12r (a bit too high for me). Growing up there wasn't anyone I knew that rode a motorcycle and didn't wear the Frye Harness boot so it seemed a bit cliche-sh to wear them...but in researching the way they are made--heavy rubber soles (like the engineer boot), 1.5 inch heel (not too high-but high enough), and they are 10" high (not to high-but high enough to protect your ankles and get the boot on your foot w/out ripping flesh off)."
"The second pair fit perfectly. The first pair that didn't fit, that I returned, were substantially lighter in color than the second pair which fit well."

"I wish the bottom of the sole had a different tread pattern, or maybe a little bit of traction type tread. I absolutely love the way the boots fit."

"I generally wear Sperry Top Sider Gold Cup driving mocs, but the quality of them has gone downhill quickly, and I find myself having to replace them in about a year."
"I bought these as a Christmas present for one of my sons and had another son, whose feet are just a tad bigger than his brother’s , try them on."
"I wanted a loafer with soft leather, snug fit, and a driver's heel (most drivers fit this bill). Admittedly, they are not as comfortable as some other driving loafers I've worn."
"Update: 7/4/2014. The shoes have stood up very well over the past year."
"I wore them for a day with thinner socks and noticed them begin to stretch and loosen up to a very comfortable wear now."
"* the sole is thin enough to look chic, yet strong enough to support well. Just not worth the price given that it fell apart within 2 months of average wear (3-4 days per week)."
"After about 2-3 months of wearing them once a week they ended up with holes in the toe area."

"They fit a little big, but not enough to make me exchange for a smaller size."
"Was looking for a reliable shoe that could be resoled and was not sure how a rubber sole would do. The choice is either fashion that does not last or something that lasts forever but is not attractive. They were also loose at the sides. Aldo has a nice tan shoe has the more common rubber outsole as my Nunn bush and not as elegant but effective last but at least the sizing is right. I returned it before I could rate it's color fastness but it does seem to be a cheap patina applied instead of any true tanning process. Not extremely familiar with fake painted on toes except for Hugo Boss and similar but the color wasn't coming off the toe but the "rich" cognac multi hued sides heel and even the bottom. Apparently they can get away with sizing errors and temporary color treatments because the shoe is so attractive. All that together turned me from from this company as it was confusing Spain with Mexico and implying this was a cheap brand that was euro styling but cheap north American labor asthetics."
"This is saying a lot bc he is extremely picky about shoes and is very fashion forward."
"Very elegant shoe."
"I never thought I would pay this much for a shoe (I usually by under $150)."

Reviews
Find Best Price at Amazon"I made a point to purchase a pair sold directly by Amazon versus a third-party seller. Rest assured that if you buy the "sold by Amazon.com LLC" styles you have the real deal (be careful when you are selecting sizes/styles, as the seller changes for each that you click on...only certain ones are available directly from Amazon). Please note that Amazon.com is an authorized online dealer of Rayban if the purchase is being made directly from Amazon."
"The case and glasses were authentic on my first order."
"I did send my current pair back to Ray Ban to be refurbished about 10 years ago, but great glasses."
"The reason why I give this 4 stars is because the sunglasses seem authentic and they arrived earlier than expected, so people with average sized heads should definitely try them out. Piece of advice, try them on at your local store first to see if the size fits and looks good on you :). Pew. UPDATE: The 62MM arrived today. If I can get them to a place to tighten them up and stop falling, I will give it 5 stars and might order another pair in a different color."
"Ray Ban is a very high quality sun glass, I will always buy Ray Ban's in the future, as I have purchased Maui Jims and paid a lot more and the quality is a lot less!"
"No markings on the frames, no markings on the lenses, not even the slightest effort made to trick me. I cannot imagine a world existing where a person would receive this product and think "awesome, just what I paid $150 dollars for!!" Because I made the specific effort to assure I was ordering directly from Amazon and still had my order fulfilled by some random seller, I would encourage any shopper looking at this sort of item to walk away, save your money, and spend a few more dollars for the privilege of not getting ripped off."
"The coloring is starting to wear off and if you flick the lens you can tell by the sound that they aren't glass when compared to flicking a real pair."
