The faux cork insole you see in the picture here is actually a sheet of plastic or vinyl bonded to rubberized foam. It feels terrible against the skin of my legs and is a serious downside. The slippers/moccasins/espadrilles themselves are ok. They look good at home but I wouldn't wear them for business. The toe box is a bit pointed so there isn't much room in the toe box although the heel is ok. No bow support. The outsole is made from a fairly durable synthetic material and looks great, while the fabric upper looks great. I have a high arch so they are a bit tight at the top of the foot. The length is good but again there is little toe room for my wide profile. I honestly don't really like them. I can change them a bit, for example make a new insole out of cotton and foam rubber.
