Better than I expected for the money. I bought them for everyday dining and traveling by plane and car. Not for running. I wore them the first day, which means a two and a half hour flight and then sightseeing mostly from the car. They were very comfortable and didn't leave me with blisters or scuffs and I wore them with no socks. I've worn them a few more times, mostly just for short walks, and they've been fine. My only complaint is that they have little to no arch support.
