I've only had these shoes for 4 months and they no longer fit. The tongue doesn't stretch much, so you really need to screw it in. If you screw on shoes, you'll ruin the heel. They had a reinforced heel to prevent this, but now the heel structure is bent (it feels like a piece of metal, to be honest) and digging into my Achilles tendon. It really hurts to wear them now so they go in the trash. Wouldn't recommend it.
