I bought a pair of these shoes because, well why not, they were a heck of a lot cheaper than the regular brand. You can call it that, it's just not right. The insole soon fell out. Below is a hard plastic grid that is very uncomfortable. But that's not the worst. The worst thing is that after a little use (2-3 months) these shoes have deteriorated so much that nobody, including yourself, can be in the same room with them. I was on a trip and literally couldn't take it anymore (nor could my family), bought a cheap pair of flip flops to wait out the rest of the trip and threw them in a dumpster at a bad gas station. I would never buy these again.
