These shoes are inexpensive and look good. They are very light. You are the right size. Simply a good all-round shoe. 5 stars right? Well, the experience of wearing them, and especially putting them on, leads you to believe that you will change shoes relatively soon. They don't feel like they were made for the long haul. I can not explain; they just look a little cheap. (Again, the price is pretty good. Today it's $29.99.) I've only had them for about a month now and mostly only wear them on the weekends, so I could be very wrong. But even if I'm right and it's only been the last 6 months or so, it's still pretty good value for money. So I'm happy with these shoes. (And yes, I know I got them for free in exchange for my review. So that's VERY good value! But I try to look at these things as if I paid for them. Once they wear out, I would really thinking about getting them another pair.)
