Eyelets for shoelaces must be made of stainless steel. Glue should be better.
I didn't like the rusty metal lace holes. They backed off very quickly. The bottom of the shoe came off in less than 6 months of use. The shoes are a great idea but the quality is very low.
Pros
Great walking shoes. Then sandals are better. I will order different colors.
Cons
And I ordered a size down and they weren't in the box and I will never order them again
