My wife fooled around with me for at least 30 minutes. I would definitely rock them if they didn't arrive with signs of wear. The left foot felt weird around the ball of the foot. The heel of the insole pushed my foot so far forward that it was uncomfortable. I probably wouldn't care about dirt on the side or bottom if the fit was good. They are still hot although the color is a little darker than the picture. I expect a hassle free return and exchange for a new pair without the above issues.
