I bought a pair of these sneakers from the outlet 3-4 years ago and have worn them quite a bit since - the shoes are ok but the mesh is torn from colliding with things for these kind of tramp. My beloved wife said "it's time", so I found the item on the tongue and ordered the same model. Of course they are perfect. Loosened up after a few days so I can put them on and take them off without loosening or even bending over and after a week they feel the same as the last ones. They're also very durable - I can't imagine slipping in them on a wet surface. And of course they are comfortable. If they last another 2-3 years now, I'll be in heaven.
