It may just be the pair I received but the plastic support around the front of the shoe has collapsed inwards on one of the shoes with very little wear. So the front of the base of the toes is being squeezed together and actually touching the top of my middle toes. It's very uncomfortable. Too bad, because otherwise the shoes are good. Good wide toe box as advertised and surprisingly good dry grip. However, if it is wet, beware! They're like ice skates.
